Why must so many of these violinists feel it necessary to dump a beat track on otherwise lovely music? Lucia is far from the worst in that regard, but several of the cuts to which I listened had that disco thing that really annoys me.
I remember the anticipation I had awaiting the release of Máiréad Nesbitt's 'Raining Up' and then the disappointment I felt when I heard that bump-chi-bump garbage. Fortunately, it's only on a couple songs, but it ruins them, IMO. She is, by the way, a brilliant fiddle player.
I like Vanessa-Mae's interpretations of the classics (classical and rock), but she showed a tendency to do that disco thing too and by 2001, it took over her music. I was relieved to hear her 2004 release ('Choreography'), which was not infected with that irritating synthetic crap. I enjoy her energetic playing style.
Then there's Bond - a British group of four pretty young ladies who can certainly play. If it weren't for the beat track that's ubiquitous, I would probably like their material. Unfortunately, either they or their producers think their potential listeners are musical idiots who need the beat pounded into their brains.
That's just a few; there are plenty more. Can somebody please convince whoever is responsible for this travesty to cease and desist?
