這張Heavenly Voices PART2我買的很「槍神」．看過梁朝偉與周潤發演的槍神．在電影中第一幕就是先把槍藏在圖書館的書中．梁朝偉走著走著走到放書架中雙手一指隨手拿出早就藏好槍的那本書．我在唱片行買這張ｃｄ時大概也像這樣．一般ｃｄ的封面設計都是引人注意．德國Hyperium公司Heavenly Voices這系列的音樂封面都是灰灰暗暗．蜷縮在ｃｄ海中．．．．能發現的人絕對是有慧根．天賦異秉．人中之龍．未來國家棟樑．HA HA HA…….

Heavenly Voices是來自德國Hyperium音樂公司的一個系列，Heavenly Voices這個系列選取陰柔幽暗的女聲歌曲，嚴格明確的定位，用Hyperium公司自己的話說就是—我們期待的女人是天真爛漫的精靈，游離塵世的妖仙。陪你度過失眠夜晚的耳邊輕唱，中古風情的華麗史詩，安靜典雅的冥想音樂和祈禱音樂，鬼魅冰冷的金屬民謠，狡詐漂亮的流行音樂抑或憂鬱沉迷的感傷戀歌。德國人一板一眼的做風，確實在Heavenly Voices唱片中做到了這一切，也為我們點化出平淡超然的隔世心境。

Heavenly Voices天堂詠唱，是Hyperium提出的一種Dark Wave風格（Dark Wave用台語來詮釋可以叫重鹹)全新的製作理念。從某種意義上說，Hyperium提出Heavenly Voices概念（Heavenly Voices用台語來詮釋可以叫死鹹)，加速了Dark Wave變異過程．．．．．所以可以簡單說重鹹變死鹹．．哈哈．．．．怎樣．我解釋的很通俗很明瞭吧（佩服我自己）。它是一派以優美女聲唱詠(不是普通的唱歌，是正統的美聲唱法．與日式女性的美聲或恩雅enya甜美式．莎拉布萊曼Sarah Brightman的歌劇式唱法截然不同)配以典雅絃樂的音樂，有時候也會配上比較舒服的電子．美而不甜的女聲．聲音極具厚度。追溯其最原本的美學標準，正是4AD的Dead Can Dance所定義的。既然是以人聲唱功為主，則其女主音必是中心焦點所在；那些美得不吃人間煙火的天使之音是未聽過天堂詠唱的人所無法想像的。而出品這一派音樂最著名的廠牌自是提出這個概念的德國的Hyperium，其「Heavenly Voices」系列對整個天堂詠唱支流起著定義和註釋的權威性。旗下的Stoa、Love Is Colder Than Death更是該支流的核心人物。

在台灣想接觸歐陸的音樂實在很難．之前想找一張Export your sence.德國的ｃｄ也沒有找到。喜歡女性美聲唱法的人．Heavenly Voices這系列的音樂是對歐州音樂很好的試金石．．．．聽起來就像是歐洲車ｖｓ日本車ｖｓ美國車．。．第一次用車對比音樂．．HA HA HA不過也蠻貼切的．歐洲車樸實內裝．不花俏．底盤紮實。 Heavenly Voices共出五張cd．我買的是PART２
