Remixes - Shpongle

Advantages: Just great quality music!
Disadvantages: Hardly any!

...I,m a recent listener of Shpongles music, having first heard them on Last FM radio. These really are a superb band with there fusions of psychedelic / trance / dub / world / electro crossovers. Definitely right up my street and anyone elses for that matter who are into stuff like Ozric Tentacles , Banco De Gaia , to name but a few. When i first heard the excellent flute playing , on this CD and others i was reminded of some early ' Quintessence ' a band of the late 60's to 70's.... lo and behold upon gaining further info on the line up who else was it but Raja Ram himself from the very same band. Anyway this is a splendid CD as are all of them! Very highly recommended! MEMBERS: Simon Posford (aka Hallucinogen) Raja Ram (one half of The Infinity Project and founder of the indo-prog/raga rock group of the 60's/70's Quintessence... Read review

Disadvantages: Nothing

...I have been a fan of Shpongle since this album, but, this has to be one of the best albums ever created. From the start to finish, Simon Posford and Raja Ram really keep the mood of relaxed, chillout music with funky beats and samples which you shouldn't be held back from hearing!. I got this album real cheap, on sale for £6 because I got recommended it by a friend, and I'm glad I took their advice because it's made me have a whole different aspect on music and the way I've looked it since. If your open minded about what kinds of music you listen to, then you really should not miss this album out, its really for everyone and anyone! The first time I heard it, it was an album which didn't make much sense to me, but the more you listen to it the more sense it makes. I would definately recommend it to anyone who asks about...

...This is my first album review so any criticisms or advice will be greatly appreciated. I decided to review J to tha Lo – the Remixes, an album by Miss Big Butt herself, Jennifer Lopez, as it is one of the CD’s in our house that gets a lot of play time. The album cover is a collection of pictures from her various musical videos. J-Lo released this offering in March 2002, and the album offers remixed versions of many of her tracks, previously released as singles, or on her other albums. A con, to persuade us to part with more money? Well, see what you think. The album is available from HMV priced at £16.99. TRACK LISTING ************* 1. Love don’t cost a thing (RJ Schoolyard Mix) 2. Ain’t it funny (Remix feat. Ja Rule) 3. I’m gonna be alright (Trackmasters remix feat 50 Cent) 4. I’... Read review
