Led Zep and Metallica aren't just for classic rockers anymore. Coldplay and Radiohead aren't just for the musical cool. US record label Baby Rock Records is taking the music to the kids.
And by kids we don't mean teenagers. The Rockabye Baby albums cover all of the above as well as Bjork, No Doubt, Queens of the Stone Age, Pink Floyd, Smashing Pumpkins, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Cure, The Eagles, The Pixies and Tool.At the Baby Rock website, the label is described as "transforming timeless rock songs into beautiful instrumental lullabies, sending your little one to a slumberland of sweet dreams. Delicate instruments such as the glockenspiel, vibraphone, mellotron, harp and bells create a soothing atmosphere of sound. These charming recordings are sophisticated enough for everyone to enjoy, yet gentle enough for your little angel. This is cherub rock for a new generation".
Coldplay, for example, has been reinvented for kids with "the soothing sounds of the glockenspiel, vibraphone, mellotron, and other instruments will lull your baby into a sweet slumber".
Again the website states "using Coldplay's gorgeous melodies and imagery, these gentle recordings are sophisticated enough for everyone to enjoy. Introduce the apple of your eye to these essential masterpieces of rock'n'roll".
