CD Reviews

A Solid, if Minimally Flawed, Hed Kandi Release.

The Groove | Boston, MA | 04/13/2003

(4 out of 5 stars)

"The first Hed Kandi release of 2003 calls itself as a "twisted journey through the darker side of house," and there are certainly some tracks on these two overall appealing CDs that live up to that promise. Here, X-Press 2 gets remixed in the infectious kickoff track "Call That Love;" Gene Williams delivers a soulful boost in the excellent "Strawberries;" Cassius gets a deep house makeover in "The Sound of Violence," and the hilarious dramafest "Pycho Ex-Girlfriend" has to be heard to be believed. Even commercial fare, such as "Days Go By" by Dirty Vegas," works well on "Twisted Disco." But what are the misfires? Duds include No Angels' "Let's Go to Bed" (remixed by the usually dependable Mousse T), and we get back-to-back cringeworthy cuts "Reckless" by the Barrow Gang and the not-so-aptly named "Feel Alive" by Pure Orange. But the highlights far outweigh the lackluster cuts, resulting in a grade of B for Hed Kandi's "Twisted Disco.""

Good house music

"The first installment of Twisted Disco the in the Hed Kandi series is good, but if you ask me the second one (that came out in 2004) is much much better. Still there's some great songs to be heard here. Songs include Cassius "The Sound of Violence", Eddie Amador "Psycho X Girlfriend", Therese "Monkey", to name a few. There's some tracks that aren't so good, and to me don't live up to the title Twisted Disco (Maybe I'm biased because I heard the 2004 one first which is much more funky). Songs that don't work include No Angels "Let's Go To Bed", The Barrow Gang and Bonnie Bailey "Reckless", to name a few. Overall a nice collection but check out Twisted Disco 02.04 first."

A CD worth playing on repeat for hours on end

"I found the second CD a little more exciting than the first. My favorite track is definitely "RECKLESS" Bonnie Bailey. Her voice rocks with this sexy, baby girl gravel!!! The track itself is hard, sultry, and dark!!! "Bucci Bag" is Brilliant as well!!! Great, fun, dance song!!! Shiny Disco Ball is another track you just can't sit still listening to!!! Of Course there is Dirty Vegas...NUFF SAID!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this compilation and thought it was overall put together magnificently!!!"
