"Kid Loco has been talking to me for some time now.About 18 months ago I began exploring the whole downtempo/lounge/chill-out/wallpaper/call-it-what-you-will scene.K&D, Fila Brazillia, dZihan & Kamien, anything on Ninjatune, Air... and on and on.So far, so predictable. Most people reading this review will know the above names, and if there are any that are new to you, please go for a browse around Amazon...This wonderful range of call-them-what-you-will artists border trip-hop, drum & bass, jazz, techno & house. They cross-over, switch back, mix and match, and generally make up their own rules.Throughout this journey, a name kept being thrown up. Kid Loco. Again and again. The Kid is French, cue references to DJ Cam and Dmitri from Paris - not bad references to say the least.So I finally took the plunge with three Kid Loco CDs. This one, Jesus Life, and DJ Kicks.It might well have been three different artists, and thus I immediately understand how some people may have been disappointed with "...Darlings", but for me variety is not just the spice of life, its the very essence.All three CDs are excellent and well worth an investment.So, what is THIS one like?Actually, Amazon's own review covers it very well. The Velvet Underground is all over this CD, and it evokes images of drug induced trances, mellow moments for the high, and lazy come downs.Clearly this is a big change from Loco's previous work, but hey, keep your mind open. Kid Loco not only gets away with this change, he has created a marvellous opus.The Kid did good."
