Congo - The Rough Guide To Congolese Soukous [ECD] - Various Artists

Advantages: Like the film ... the songs are quality !!
Disadvantages: None at all!

...No matter how many times I listen to this CD I still love it as much as the first time I heard it. If you liked the movie you'll like the soundtrack. Each song will remind you of one of the great parts of it ! But even if you havent seen the movie these songs are great. Features a wide range of great artists from Eels to the Counting Crows and even the amazing Jennifer Saunders herself !! The songs vary in genre with songs like Holding Out For A Hero and Livin' La Vida Loca which get you moving and songs like I Need Some Sleep by the Eels which are slower and more chilled out. Its great no matter what mood your in.... Read review

Advantages: chilled sound for fans of zero 7
Disadvantages: might not suit everyone, few weak tracks

...absolutely love Zero 7, who has released two albums of their own material called 'Simple Things' and 'When it Falls', plus some compilation albums including the late night series.

Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes - Thievery Corporation 8. Keep You Kimi - Yukimi Nagano 9. Wesley Music - Audrey Hermitt 10. Pablo's Blues 11. U Bring Me Vibes [Original Mix] - Amp Fiddler 12. Lazy Calm - Cocteau Twins 13. Congo [Fragile State Main Mix] 14. Every Day a Story - Fragile... Read review
