V.A. Aphrodisiac Universal A collection of deep, jazzy and sensual house Does the title lives up to the content of this double cd package ?
Give it a go and let your ears confirm it ! The tracks are selected by Eva Gardner, and if she is as warm as her musical taste, wow, she
must be extremely hot then :) Although, there is an overall vocal &

Here is a full track listing and some comments : Nightmare on wax : Les Nuits : The classic reworked, with spiced up beats and jazz touch Martha Cinader : Livin' it : Deep beats with warm female narrating voice. Superb & intense ! Raw Emotions : SOS : Slow phat bassline with atmospheric synths and chants Jazzanova : Bohemian Sunset : Slo-mo jazzy jazzanova composition Tim 'Love' Lee : Everybody loves the jungle : Nice reworked 'Everybody loves the sunshine' version with wicked moogs Pepe Deluxe : The beat experience : More reworking, without real inspiration ... Marschmellows : Soulpower : Oldskool bass guitar driven funky houzer Rollercone : Palais Mascotte : Deepness to drive you high! Tom & Joyce : Vai Minha Tristeza : Classy and moody deep jazzfunkhouze Kevin Yost : If she only knew : One of the absolute masters of deepness with this essential track Paul Mac : Samba Interlude : Some noises, but never becoming real interesting music Dee Box : Spiritual love : Smokey laid-down stuff Pepe Deluxe : Woman in blue : Whoever this pepe might be, the music isn't very interesting. Azymuth : Laranjeiras : The trusted values, Azymuth, with warm chilly acid jazz A:xus feat. Naomi : Calling you : Takes a little long to develop into a simple rework making it uninteresting at all Chez Damier : Close : Classic deephouzer. The fire this time : Reluctant warrior : Sort of intermezzo soundscape with narrating Astrotrax : Losing control : Except for the uninspired artist name, sort of Incognito-voice in deephouze disguise Unit 46 : Don't go : The bassline is nice and deep rolling, the vocals somehow a little too much Nova Nova : Bewildered : The Nova Nova classic in deephouze outfit Children of the planet earth : Fly away : The trumpet sure makes us ... fly away Adny : What if I love : Saxed up atmospheric deephouze |

All in all, an interesting compilation if you prefer a nice selection of warm deep tracks for those moments in life where you cannot devote all your time behind the turntables. ez oct/99 |
