Sound Of Bassline 2

Advantages: Worth the money and hours of great, feel-good tunes
Disadvantages: Have to be in the mood to listen to it

...music and I brought the Sound Of Bassline Vol 1. which I thought was really good so when I heard the Sound Of Bassline Vol 2. was available to buy I didn't hesitate to buy it. The first time I listened to it I instantly enjoyed it and couldn't wait to hear the next song. Each CD met up to my expectations, I thought the songs were genius and I wouldn't go a day without listening to them at least once. Would I recommend this to other people? Yes, ...
...there, but remixed and all sound excellent. My Personal Opinion I am very pleased with this album and is definitely different from other albums I have brought in the past. Some of the material on the album is not well-known yet but still brilliant. Although, there are popular tracks on there that everyone will have heard of but they have been remixed and I believe sound better than the original. It was worth every penny. I paid £10.00 for this ...

Progression from their roots

Advantages: A development of their distinctive sound without losing the magic of their first album
Disadvantages: Definitely not to everyone's taste

The second album from Argentine/Parisian nuevo tango pioneers Gotan Project is a much more fully rounded recording and an easier listen than their first outing, La Revencha Del Tango. The first album established their iconic sound, mixing traditional tango melodies played on accordions with dub beats and new production techniques. This takes it a step further and we see that there really is more to this trio, tracks such as "La Viguela" (a type of ...
...smooth acoustic guitar work with weird processed vocals, yet somehow it works. The French influence has clearly become stronger and this is most evident on the haunting "Celos" which conjurs up images of a wartime jazz quintet playing in a smoke filled basement in Paris. For me however, the highlight is the final track "Paris, Texas" an epic re-interpretation of Ry Cooder's theme for Harry Dean Stanton's 1984 movie of the same name. Overall I would ...

The Sex Has Made Me Stupid

Advantages: Great tunes that'll make ya dance till ya drop
Disadvantages: None

Like many, I first heard about these ladies from watching The Mighty Boosh. The electro-pop-punk duo Sue Denim and Dee Plume are ones to watch in 2008. With their growing success, they are now gaining credibility on their own, as a band (without the connection to 'The Mighty Boosh') and this album in proof why. With honest lyrics and fierce beats, from start to finish it's a great listen. From the 'electro-ballad' 'The Tears' to the up-tempo number ...
...want to skip. Robots are known for their live performances where they take the crowd into a different world of neon, capes and glitter. With rockin tunes and endless energy, they'll keep you dancing all night. This album is a must have for any RiD fan- go get it! ...

Dooooo Doo Dooo Doo Do

Advantages: A couple of bangers
Disadvantages: Fairly repetitive beats

Benga released “Diary Of An Afro Warrior” in 2008. It was the first official album from the man who many accredit to being one of the most influential people in the mergence of the Electronica sub-genre, Dubstep, which took on the characteristics of the production in House, Grime and 4X4 Garage to come out one of the biggest underground sound in the UK today. He is a London producer, and the sounds can be heard throughout the country since emerging ...
...album off, yopu have a track which has him apparently attempting to sum up what this album is about what what yuo tend to encounter in Dubstep sa he comes with a mix of bongo rhythms and deep bass, but in comparison to how other parts of the album go, it's not all that good. **Two Stars** 2. “Night” This is the most successful tune from Benga, and it has him in a collaboration with Coki. Together, you have thme doing one which seems to have them ...

Catchy, lively, upbeat. A new frontier for Punjabi music.

Advantages: A soon to be Classic Album
Disadvantages: None at all!

This album sets high expectations for the sequel; Imran Khan all but fails to entertain in this energetic debut album. The album is laced with dance, techno and hip hop club beats, all covered by the fresh, young and soulful Punjabi voice of Imran Khan. If you are looking for something new and unexpected, listen to it this is without doubt a must listen for fans of Punjabi music. The main producer, Eren E provides flawless instrumentals, a good audio ...
