Greece - the Rough Guide to the Music of Greece Greece - the Rough Guide to the Music of Greece
The Rough Guide to the Music of Greece is a fascinating compilation--far more than the ... more
mere aural accompaniment to a thousand sunlit
feasts of kebab and kleftiko (a word which
originally denoted a stately dance). But those
familiar sounds are there, in the voices of
Manolis Angelopoulos (Greece's most famous gypsy
singer) and Stelios Kazantzidis (who brought back
the Oriental influences which had been banned from
Greece in the 1930s). The point about Greek music
is that it has always reflected the confluence of
east and west, and this disc is full of such
echoes. We get the rembetika music which grew out
of drug dens in Thessaloniki, and the laiko urban
blues which the colonels banned in the 1970s; we
also get the bewitching sound of Womad-star
Eleftheria Arvanitaki, and the long-gone Arabic
delicacy of Kostas Nouros, "the nightingale of
Smyrna". George Pissalides' commentary is
illuminating, but it's a shame we're not given the
basic facts behind each song. It would be
wonderful to know the words to "the Greek Bob
Dylan" Dionisis Savopoulos's number, for example,
and the ideas injecting such sweetness into
Nouros's café-song. --Michael Church

Review of Floorfillers Vol.4 (42 Massive Hits From The Clubs) - Various Artists by anton18

Advantages: the best dance cd ever made bye floorfillers
Disadvantages: they dont make enough of them

...i collect all the floorfillers cd's and floorfillers 4 is the best cd out yet. there is couple of 80s songs on it, 90s songs and now, so its a good mixture of tunes for everyone, i would recomend it to all the party animals out there, its just a top cd, :):) floorfillers gets used in ibeza and greece so alot of people know it in other countrys, if you have never heard dance before then i would recomend floorfillers 1, 3 or 4.. in my opinion floorfillers 2 was £$%$ not there best one. but floorfillers 4 is a cd i never get bored of . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ....

It does exactly what it says on the box
Review of Deep And Chilled Euphoria (Mixed By Red Jerry) - Various Artists by SimonP

Advantages: Very relaxing, great after a hard day's work!
Disadvantages: None that I can think of

...'ve never regretted buying it. I have summarised below the highs and lows (if any?) of this album: TRACK SELECTION The first CD has a total of 14 tracks, and the second CD has 15 tracks. Many of the tracks on the album are remixes of quite well known trance anthems, and indeed some of them are just leftfield (chill-out) remixes of classic tunes (for example, Coldcut - Autumn Leaves). Each track is quite long - about 5 or 6 minutes. Trance lovers will notice some well-known tunes and artists are featured... BBE - Seven Days and One Week; Xsasia - Sweetness; Three Drives - Greece 2000; Humate - Love Stimulation; Sasha - Baja; Sister Bliss - Sister Sister are just a few examples. The are only a couple of tracks which I find are not particularly relaxing. Most noticably Groove Armada's 'Your Song' and Rui Da Silva - The Four Elements "Water... Read review
