专辑介绍：

The bass line of the opening track is the first sign, and the smooth funk of the second track confirms it:On Embrya, Maxwell has done it again. Sophomore efforts don't always fare well, especially when an artist is still riding high on the accolades of a debut, but Maxwell has managed to take the exquisite soul of 1996's Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite and,without sacrificing any of its verve, turn it into something far more sophisticated. Not only is Embrya a sublime summer soundtrack, it's a groove masterpiece from start to finish."Luxury: Cococure," the first single, like "'Til the Cops Come Knockin'" before it, is only the slightest taste of the treasures waiting to be devoured. If you're looking for lush ballads, skip to "Matrimony: Maybe You," the haunting "Know These Things: Shouldn't You," and the sensual slow jam "Gravity: Pushing to Pull" (and yes, nearly all the tracks are subtitled like this).

They may not be as yearning as those that detailed his weekend-long tryst on Hang Suite (Maxwell knows better than anyone just how far a little restraint can go),but these tracks are gifts on their own. Put them together and you have an album that does nothing but elevate Maxwell's impeccable reputation as the man who breathed life back into the soul of R&B.

九十年代中期的节奏布鲁斯爱好者既不像前辈一样高雅，也很少像其他类型音乐爱好者那样追求纯粹的感官刺激。Maxwell的音乐中蕴藏的现代感觉和坦率的浪漫情怀显然符合这些挑剔的节奏布鲁斯爱好者的胃口。Maxwell17岁时开始在一把破旧的卡西欧键盘上创作音乐，他过人的天赋让他很快成为了纽约俱乐部圈子里的名人。在和Columbia公司签约后，他和吉他手Wah Wah Watson、萨克斯手Stuart Matthewman、歌曲作者Leon Ware一起录制了首张专辑。Maxwell的首张专辑《Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite》，包容了Prince迷幻的性感疯克和Marvin Gaye标准的浪漫概念，再加上节奏布鲁斯本身浓郁纯美的根源色彩，成为了当时节奏布鲁斯的一个难得的精品。单曲“Ascension (Never Wonder)”，进入了TOP40排行榜，专辑在1996年底成为金唱片。两年后，Columbia公司推出Maxwell的第二张专辑《Embrya》。整张专辑风格迥异，感性的陈述着Maxwell的每一个想法，时而将您带入空旷、寂静的山野，时而又穿梭在迷幻、繁华的都市。Maxwell所得给你的就是一种感觉，一种闭上眼睛找寻真正自我的感觉。
