I've been listening a lot lately to Daniel Renstrom's (MySpace) Adore and Tremble EP. He emailed me a couple of weeks ago and asked if I might review it. I almost said no, because I knew it would be Christian music. Then I figured I would just tell him that I really don't listen to much Christian music and he wouldn't send it. So I told him. He sent it anyway. What a great surprise this worship EP is!
This 6 song EP includes four original songs by Renstrom and two updated hymns, "Adore and Tremble" by Isaac Watts and "Let Us Love and Sing and Wonder" by John Newton. All good. And all lyrics and chords are online for all. I should also add that the production quality is top notch, not what you always get from early recordings. I highly recommend this EP for your own devotions or to find some new worship stuff for your church. I had it playing last Sunday before and after worship. Get it at iTunes or on CD.
Spoon (well, Britt) in a Black Cab singing the great song, "I Summon You"...
Justice, "DVNO". Geez, this stuff is cool...
I want me some Bon Iver (MySpace ). Some of it sounds like a gentler, acoustic TV on the Radio. I will pick up For Emma, Forever Ago as soon as I can find it. "Flume"...
"Lump Sum"...
If you are anything like me you occasionally go back and find a song you used to like and find out it's still a great song. Here's one I searched out recently. Who doesn't want to be in a band and play a song like this live?
