"Soul For Sale" is the official debut album by independent trip-hop musician Jenova 7. Influenced by many genres of music, "Soul For Sale" contains aspects of trip-hop, classic hip-hop, jazz, psychedelic rock, electronic and more. The end result is a versatile, unique and original trip-hop instrumental album. Contrarily blending dark, cinematic sounds with peaceful, relaxing and organic jazz, Jenova 7's debut album displays a wide range of meditative music.
Jenova 7 is nom de plume of Michael J. Sirois, Boston-based musician and filmmaker and “Soul For Sale” is his way of introducing himself to the world. “Soul” is a giant labyrtinth of sounds, all layered and modified – there’s stuttering beats and harmonica samples on a title track, hot guitar licks on “Last Breath And Beyond”, warm synth sounds of “World Still Turns” and so on and so forth.
At the center of the “Soul” (no pun intended) lies a love for all things vintage – whether its funk, psychedelic rock or jazz. Yet the production and technique are undenaibly modern and the way in which this record fuses together the past and the present is nothing short of mind-blowing.
