Priscilla Hernandez "Ancient Shadows" Soooooo sweet!!! Priscilla's music is an excellent blend of gothic, new-age, folk-fairy music, and darkwave. The thing that will sell this recording is the fantastic vocal work. It might be easy to make comparisons to artists like Enya and Loreena mckennitt. She has a very sweet and magical way of coming across. Her voice makes it easy to enjoy the day and relax. Thats not to say that everything is all roses. There's also a little bit of a stormy, Tori Amos kind of aspect to this music. Though the melody is always passive, and the charming singing is always pleasant, there is a darker side. There are all kinds of fantasy themes to these songs, and this includes scary ghost talles. That brings up a whole other issue...The co-existing ethereal and "down-to-earth" qualities of the songs. Parts of this make me feel like a comfortable chair, other parts are strange and otherworldly. There is a folky, old-world quality that makes you want to trust this music, but something unknown just triggers the intuition. This might be nice music for quiet times, probably even better for rainy, stormy, dark quiet times. I wouldn't be ashamed to have a mug of herbal tea and mellow out ot these classy tunes.
