Review

Magnet (p.116) - "The moody 'Chrysanthemum' and the caffeine-jittery 'A Dream In Three Parts' work both as deft production showcases and pop songs."
Q (Magazine) (p.139) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The best songs recall Scritti Politti in their chart-bothering '80s prime, while the faintly Yazoo-esque duet 'Entropy Reigns' and plucky anthem 'Sea of Sine Waves' are also intriguingly offbeat."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he classically trained violinist is a promiscuous genre-hopper -- classical, baroque pop, disco -- and a flamboyant arranger and lyricist."

Title Note

The Julliard-trained cellist and neo-disco boundary pusher Kelley Polar released one of 2005's most innovative dance albums with the exquisite LOVE SONGS OF THE HANGING GARDENS, which combined an avant-disco aesthetic borrowed from artists like Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte with the restless inventiveness and formal rigor of renegade classicists like John Cale and fellow cellist Arthur Russell. Polar's 2008 release, I NEED YOU TO HOLD ON WHILE THE SKY IS FALLING, is every bit the equal of its predecessor as it matches massed strings against icy pre-programmed rhythms and ethereal vocals to miraculous effect. The airy but eminently danceable standout "Chrysanthemum" manages to simultaneously invoke both the syrupy harmonies of psych-pop mainstays the 5th Dimension and the ecstatic disco beats of Donna Summer.
