Description

Авторы текста и музыки. Maxwell, Stuart Matthewman.

Now. Veröffentlicht am August 21, 2001.

Now is the third studio album by American R&B singer Maxwell. It was released on August 14, 2001, by Columbia Records. Following the lukewarm commercial performance of his 1998 record Embrya, Maxwell pursued a different direction while recording Now, abandoning the conceptual style of his previous albums.

True, Now is more song-centric than his previous releases, barring possibly his debut, but this is still well-crafted mood music in which the overall seductive sound matters more than what he's saying specifically. That's part of the reason why his cover of Kate Bush's "This Woman's Work" (revived here after being debuted on his MTV Unplugged) is so startling - it's not just that he's picked an unlikely source for a great cover, but it's the one time that he marries his sumptuous sound to a song with substance.

This album has an average beat per minute of 113 BPM (slowest/fastest tempos: 100/138 BPM). See its BPM profile at the bottom of the page. BPM Profile Now. Album starts at BPM, ends at 104BPM (+104), with tempos within the -BPM range. Try refreshing the page if dots are missing). Recent albums by Maxwell.

Now was Maxwell’s final album before an eight-year break from recording. It showed how in-step and yet completely out-of-kilter an artist he was. This is grown-up, frequently gorgeous music that epitomises the very best in neo-soul. Now finds Maxwell on track after the more conceptual (read: rambling) groove-based Embrya album, the follow-up to his groundbreaking debut, Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite. Here the emphasis is on the song. Working with Hod David and Stuart Matthewman from Sade, Now is full of well-written material.

That prior album debuted at earned two Grammy Awards along with platinum-plus sales status, and set the stage for this ambitious follow-up. That prior album debuted at earned two Grammy Awards along with platinum-plus sales status, and set the stage for this ambitious follow-up.
