Oh me-oh-my-o, look at Miss Ohio
Review of Soul Journey - Gillian Welch by disneyeyes

Advantages: She is one talented lady
Disadvantages: This album's not long enough!

...settled in Nashville with long-time partner and musical collaborator David Rawlings, Welch has been a multiple Grammy nominee as a result of her contribution to various film soundtracks, most noteably 'O Brother Where Art Thou'. Her sound has been variously described as country/folk and, more frequently, bluegrass - though she herself has come up with a novel term to describe her music: American Primitive. For those unfamiliar with any of the above, think - very roughly - Dolly Parton's 'Little Sparrow' album, her recent return to her bluegrass roots. Don't, however, think '9 to 5' or 'Jolene' or anything of that ilk. Do think banjos, think plucky guitars, think fiddles and harmonicas and a soothing, velvety, Smokey Mountain vocal. Dear God, do NOT think Shania Twain... that's the wrong road entirely, and one that leads to all sorts... Read review

I Love this CD!
Review of Hypnotic Journey (Mixed By DJ Mathew Grim) - Various Artists by YaahBooy

Advantages: Great mixed cd
Disadvantages: none

...Just got this CD accidentally. This was fortunate error because it really is good. I have never heard of these artists or DJ Matthew Grim. But EVERYTHING on Hypnotic Journey is amazing. I highly recommend this well mixed CD. From begining to the end the progression just keeps you moving and grooving. I never wanted it to end. I can't really define the exact genre of the music but it is basically progressive trance/house hybrid. ? ? You just have to hear it you won't be disappointed. DJ Matthew Grim delivers the goods. In the world of generic sounding watered down electronic music it is refreshing to see this DJ taking major chances with his musical selections. It really is a Hypnotic Journey!!!!!!... Read review

Review of Big Brother Is Watching (Mixed By UNKLE) - Various Artists by Will77

Advantages: Huge variation in tracks, all types of music, fantastic mixing
Disadvantages: No track listings

...If you are a fan or have ever listend to UNKLE before you know that they are not your average artist / DJs / Producers. BIg Brother is Watching is a primer example of this. It is a 2 CD set. Now, it is hard to say which is CD one and which is CD two since there is no indication which is which and there is no track listing what so ever. The only way to differentiate between the two is the UNKLe type drawings on them. Anyway, the CD which I am calling CD one, which has a guy with a hood on is a more conventional mix CD but it still has the UNKLE edge to it. The mixing is very slick and seemless and the tracks mutate from one to another. UNKLE are not your typical crowd pleasers, they dont play huge anthems that always work. Instead they find their own and test them out and they usually work. The music on the first CD is a mixture... Read review
