Operas: knotty together
The Futures Market
Shattered Glass
La Senorita Mundo
Thank you for visiting! Please follow the link below to read reviews of our work. Eye Weekly critic Christopher Hoile gave La Senorita Mundo four stars: Don't let the words "operatic" or "allegory" put you off this immensely entertaining musical gem. Njo Kong Kie's electronic music, played on a laptop, is full of good tunes and dance beats with wonderfully rich voices floating on waves of techno and trance. Julius (Keith Klassen) is celebrating his 40th birthday, but an uninvited guest (Vilma Vitols), the Spanish title's "Miss World" drops in. We can guess the many things she might represent long before her unmasking, but the fun is in the duo's sizzling flirtation and Julius's sudden awakening from party-time narcissism to a glimpse of life's mystery. Let's hope for a second run. Concert, Richard Bradshaw Amphitheatre, May 2008 Performance of knotty together in Dublin, Ireland, May 2008 Of The Futures Market, Eye Weekly critic Gord McLaughlin wrote: Composer Njo Kong Kie contributed the beautiful score to The Futures Market... It was so musically gorgeous that the politics of the scenario became incidental to this critic. About Day OFF's CD Picnic in the cemetery "Playful ... heartfelt ... satisfying"
"The rare ideal of new music that is also pleasant listening"

Excellent work! This piece grabs your attention right out of the gate. Great use of counterpoint to make things interesting. The violin is beautiful... A brooding, dark composition that leaves me wanting more!!!
Phenomenal Doesn't Begin to Describe it
A hard hitting beautifully played violin lead started this song off and I was instantly captivated. When the rest of the instruments came in carrying the same sort of intensity and vigour I was blown away. Literally, I feel this is the best song I have heard on garageband to date...
Cool
Very Amelie sound track worthy...This piece is definitely a character piece. You feel exactly what the artists wants you to feel... This song is a great experience. The performance is great.
Industrial strength Paganini
Awesome musicianship.. The arrangement has a great effect of urgency, like traditional instruments emulating electronic ones. A very strong piece... complex repetitive arrangement, its like Vivaldi's Nuclear winter.
Blown Blown Blown away I was...
I simply love this track...I listened quite a few times, and I love it all the way, you pass through some fantastic moods along the way. Very epic in a way. Kisses and hugs from me:-)
Nicely composed with attention to detail
Very peaceful and reflective. Beautiful harmonies with layers building and becoming more intricate. Nice composition with attention to detail...evokes emotion...played with passion.
Great acoustic (orchestra-based) ambient cannon
This is an easy to listen to orchestral cannon with good progression, and an over all ambient sound and mood... the ambience generated is stunning...
Parle Moi Beautifully haunting
Beautiful haunting piano open. The interplay between the two string parts is captivating. I like the interesting arpeggios beneath the strings. It's really a nice dichotomy...The piece is excellent and performed superbly.
beautiful work
I could not stop myself to listen to it again.How not to appreciate this music?... beautiful melodies dances and mixes with each other with a marvelous softness. simple music, yet incredibly original, very emotional.
Beautiful Music
No comment...the Music is so beautiful, it made my day. so sensual. violins are breath taking, piano is so good. good harmony and the mix is great. seriously very very good job.
I love this
I love Piazzolla and all things that have come close. The arrangement is lovely, I like the crunchy bits in the piano, just enough edge... the best thing I've heard on Garage Band.
