"Many reviewers of this CD have claimed that Yennah is "Acid Jazz," and that this was their reason for enjoying the music here. That's cool. As a fan of downtempo electronic music, however, I want to say that this has very little in common with acid jazz. There is almost no live instrumentation, live drums, or any other real-time-instrument-playing on this one. It's downtempo electronica, plain and simple. The definition of acid jazz is essentially funk using jazz chords and vamps - entirely organic. For the reviewers who enjoyed this CD after classifying it as acid jazz, welcome to the digital age. Yennah uses a multitude of creative beats, samples, and dub effects to bring about their musical visions on this fantastic CD. The remix by Hull's own Bullitnuts only adds to the creative, head-nodding feel of the CD.Check it out."

Electronic Acid Jazz at its best!

"This type of music is a new passion of mine and it's starting to catch on quick. I picked this CD up at record store after hearing it for the first time in the store in there listening center. Fell in love within the first few minutes of the first track. After hearing track 3:"Are We Being Clear?", I reached over (headphones still on my head)and grabbed one. That's how much that track influenced me to purchase this CD. The remaining tracks are pleasing as well. Acid Jazz has been a part of my collection and this electronic stuff is welcomed with open ears. This is a great CD for all Acid Jazz heads, but hurry and get your copy because it's a limited edition.oNe"
