it no "Sounds Fromt Thievery Hifi" or "DJ Kicks" but not a clunker like Abductions and Reconstructions".About on par with "Mirror Conspiracy".They don't re-invent their wheel here by any means but it grooves.Little more of that "Tower Of Power" lite here with usual sitars and drum grooves from... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I cannot say that i'm a fan of Discordinant sound.
Many a musical snob calls this intelligent music.
I call it noise.
It doesn't take rocket science to create garbles of mathematical
sound. Just an analytical mind, & a want to stray far from center.
This release is... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

by Portishead
Price: $7.99
Customer Review:
"Trip-hop"? "Downtempo"? Although it is a dark record, between Beth Gibbons' tortured voice, Geoff Barrows' beats, scratches and samples, and Adrian Utleys' jazzy guitar: this album is pure sex.

Customer Review:
This may not be what you expect. So check out their myspace page to preview a few tracks from this disk...
The unifying sound here harkens back to the mid-seventies--lush strings and horns, energetic beats, itchy guitars, soulful harmonies and soaring lead vocals. Some may feel that this more... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I love this CD. This was the first Zero 7 CD that I ever had and it is still my favorite although When It Falls has it's moments. I first heard these guys on a compilation CD that I picked up at the library and I immediately knew that I would be buying their stuff. In the world of chill they are... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

by Massive Attack
Price: $14.49
Customer Review:
WHOA. Did I read that somebody skips-over "Inertia Creeps (#4)??"
Wow. That's pretty crazy, given that "Inertia Creeps" is one of the dopest songs on Mezzanine. It's like being in a knock-down-drag-out fist-fight in slow motion. What's not to like about that?
AND people down-grading... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Price: $13.99
Customer Review:
If you're looking to check out Thievery Corporation, this is the place to start. I got into them a few years ago, and this is their best, most consistent album from start to finish. I usually only like around 1/2 of the songs on their albums, but this one has no clunkers. Cosmic Game or Richest Man... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
This CD came up as an Amazon suggestion. I listened to the preview tracks and liked what I heard. Now that I've had the CD for about a month, I really like this disc. It's very pleasant. Emiliana has a wonderful voice. The songs are somewhat chillout like.
I think that if you like Dido, Beth... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Price: $12.99
Customer Review:
With Dummy, Portishead cemented their niche in the world of trip hop, and honestly had no obligations to carry out afterwards. Dummy was a fantastic album, good enough that even if the group had stopped there and made it a one time deal, the album would not have faded into obscurity. In any case,... more info | 4.5 / 5.0
