along with producer kirk degiorgio and vocalist jinadu, 'beyond an infinite' features drummer chris whitten (paul mccartney, edie brickell) and grammy winning engineer peter henderson (supertramp) along with classical pianist tom ogrady and peacefrog favourite and guitarist ian obrien. a gilles peterson favourite, the beauty room have already appeared on a radio 1 maida vale session and appeared as headliners at gilles monthly night at cargo in london. with a nod in the direction of steely dan ('holding on') and prime 70s stevie wonder ('soul horizon') alongside glorious orchestral arrangements by brazilian legend deodato, the beauty room navigate a sophisticated, hugely accessible path between metropolitan soul shimmer and yearning spirituality. this is mellow, but by no means lightweight music. there are lyrical stones tossed into the millpond tranquillity of a track like the string-propelled 'burn my bridges' or elegant closer 'those days', proving that while this is undoubtedly music to chill to, its certainly not aimed at those with either heart or brain in the deep freeze
