A wonderful achievement for BT

Advantages: Wonderful sonic landscapes, great surround sound DVD.
Disadvantages: Some songs a little overprocessed.

This was the first album of BT's I had bought, although I had heard his music before in various places. I didn't really know what to expect - the music of his I had heard before had been dance music, yet I read all kinds of genre classifications for this album. Once I had listened to the album I was still unsure of how you would classify this. It almost transcends classification; each track is totally different to the last. I suppose you could call ...
...first track which really made this album unclassifiable. It starts like the others, with ambience, yet soon we can hear an orchestra coming close, and then in full blown effect. By the end we have some of BTs style of Dance. 1.618 follows a similar pattern, but is totally different in it's execution. There is the use of an orchestra again but more focus on electronic melodies than strings. A beautiful and harmonic piece. "See You On The Other Side", ...

A promising you artists first major attempt to publicise grime.

Advantages: Some stunning and though provoking tracks from this young talent.
Disadvantages: Some lower quality tracks. Low quality case and inlays.

...widely available mix tapes, The Art Of Rolling includes much of Devlin's early work, recorder while still in his mid-teens, this promising young artist is still developing. Tracks on the EP include "Life's F****D Up", which gives Devlin's unique view on today's society. Being born and raised in South East London, Devlin has a unique view on what life is actually life out in the real world, on the streets. Devlin's unique view on life, coupled with ...
...young grime artist, hoping to increase public awareness of this unique style of music. Sadly this young artist is finding it difficult to get the support he needs. Major labels seem to blanket this genre of music as "violent". This is not the case with Devlin, who is thoroughly against gang violence as well as gun and knife crime. A thoroughly recommended listen. ...

How Did We Get From Jamaica To Snowflakes One Song After The Nex?

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: Nothing specific

“Snowflakes” was released as the first Christmas album from the R&B singer Toni Braxton. Released in 2001, it finds her mixing in a range of tunes which have her taking on familiar tunes that all know from this time as well as some original compositions. It is noted for being recorded at a time when she was newly married and was expecting her first child. 1.“Holiday Celebrate” The album opens up with a track that shows that in this album we are about ...
...lts of effort put into it in order to make it sound much more than your average, quickly-thrown-together Christmas album as we get thoughtful production that mixes in the contemporary R&B trends with the Christmas-y themes for a big opener that I can't find any faults with. **Five Stars** 2.“Christmas In Jamaica” As things move on, we see there here we get what was the second album from the record and a joint that has her linking up with the Dancehall ...

Can't Nobody Do X-Mas Like...

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: One weak track

...5 Christmas Album” is as the title indicates a Christmas-themed release from the Indiana Pop, Soul and Disco group The Jackson 5. Released in 1970, it was their fourth overall album (in spite of making their Motown debut the year before) and finds that Jermaine, Michael, Tito, Marlon and Jackie come together to bring a record that has them both covering classics and bringing new, original songs too. 1.“Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” The ...
