Go figure! Review Sound Check - If companies like Sony have become the big fox of the music industry, gobbling up bands and music rights wherever they go, then Hen House Studios is the little hen that could. A digital recording facility located in Venice Beach, CA, Hen House runs a community-based program where artists can make music at their own speed, to their own vision. The studio time is free to artists, as long as they permit the studio to film them while they record; the documentary footage then graces the Hen House Web site. Fortunately, some things you get for free really are worth a lot, and the studio time at Hen House has created a wonderful, eclectic anthology that ranges from funk and blues, to spoken word and rock. One of the most unusual pieces is the spoken word track recorded with The Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek and poet Michael C Ford. But fans of cutting edge music that doesnt have a corporate imprint will enjoy the other bands as well: Fan Fiction, Boom Shaka, Sonja Marie, Asian Fetish Brigade, Ethan Livermore, Badfish, Drunk Acrobat, Pete Holland, Big Cat, Cattywompus, HB Surround Sound, Nikki Hong and Beyond Rhythm. The artists of Hen House Studios Anthology 4 have laid one golden egg. --Echo MagazineAdditional Info: Personnel: Rob Bolger, Jon Levy, Jonathan Levy (vocals, guitar); Rob "Bojangles" Bolger (vocals).
