| "An absolutely fantastic album. I find it quite ironic that in this
massively male-dominated genre, it's a woman who has the balls to show everyone how it
should be done". (Eugene Walters). |

"After what seems like an eternity I finally got my copy of
‘Edge of Human’ just over 24 hours ago, yet I must have listened to the entire
album at least 10 times now. Yes, it really is that good! For me, the whole Electronic
Music scene has been starved of both great artists and great music lately. There are many
sub-genres to the EM scene, my pick being the powerful, emotive, highly melodic symphonic
music. Basically, a good honest tune! Other artists that feature highly in my EM
collection are Jean Michel Jarre, Andy Pickford, Mike Andrews (never heard of him,
right?!), Tangerine Dream and Vangelis.
If you are new to Bekki’s music but enjoy the kind of music I described above,
‘Edge of Human’ will be sure to delight. If you have followed Bekki’s work,
then what are you waiting for?! Of the 10 tracks on this album, there is not one filler.
Every single track has enough energy to stand out on its own. Believe me, I’ve tried
to find one that doesn't, because it’s not often I like 100% of the tracks on an
album! Even the two versions of ‘Amber Dawn’ at the beginning and end of the
album sound different enough to capture your full attention (unlike some remixes). The
opening track is fantastic, very reminiscent of Enya’s style to start with, but the
star of the show for me is ‘Ever-Changing Calm’. This track is probably the most
“electronic” of them all, and played loud it just screams to be played even
louder!
Releases like this are few and far-between, and artists that produce them even more so.
Bekki just takes things to a whole different level. No, I’m not a commercial outfit
promoting for my own personal gain, I’m just an ordinary EM fan who appreciates good
music when he hears it! So, to wrap up, if I had to list my all-time top 10 EM albums, I
can honestly say that ‘Edge of Human’ would be right up there with the best of
them. Thanks for a stunning album Bekki, looking forward to the next release!"
(Graham Potter, UK). |

| "I just wanted to write and thank you for releasing what for me is
one of the most inspirational albums I've heard in years. Your gift for melody is
astonishing, a breath of fresh air in an increasingly stale genre. I've loved everything
you've released but along with Innersense this one is my favourite. Hearing this kind of
music makes me proud to be a fellow woman". (Carla Thompson, UK). |
|
| "I'm speechless. Yes, I am. I took delivery of "Edge of
Human" this morning and I've been playing it non-stop ever since. I can't even pick a
favourite track, they're all excellent (although I think "Ephemeris" might just
have the lead. It's a beautiful piece of music, and when the guitar comes in I get shivers
down my spine). It's been well worth the wait for this masterpiece of an album. You just
get better and better. AD Music have a rare and wonderful talent in you". (Colin
Ford, UK). |
|
| "I just wanted to write and commend you on yet another outstanding
album. Ephemeris and The Human Edge are amongst the most emotive things you've ever
written, and Where Times Collide and The Azmara Variations are two of the best pieces of
filmic music never to be used in a soundtrack. When it comes to melodies it seems that
nobody can hold a candle to you. Can't wait for the next masterpiece. Peace, and
congratulations". (Mark Shelton, USA). |
