CD Reviews

More Eclectic Than The Name Suggests ...

"Upon seeing the title "Krishna Beats" on a CD sitting in the House / Ambient section of the music store, you might be tempted to think this will be "Cafe Del Mar, Indian Style." Well, a few songs on these two discs could be described that way, but most could not. Instead, what you get is a more eclectic, world-beat type of ambience, with Celctic pipes, Portuguese spoken word, and Jamaican semi-rap sharing space with the more eastern-sounding stuff. Behind all of it are cool vibes and slow house beats. Overall the album is a good listen, although somewhat experimental and hodgepodge, and not quite as tight or consistent as some better collections in this genre. Nevertheless, if you're the kind of person who likes chill-out music and also happens to have travel posters all over your room, then this is the collection for you. Just don't expect two hours of techno sitar."

Wonderfully eclectic

"If you enjoy Buddha Bar type compilations then you will certainly enjoy this. The first disc is very relaxing and soothing. The second disc has some very unusual and enjoyable material. Material this diverse ought not to work together but thanks to the skill of the DJ who put it together you can enjoy a range of sounds which always stimulating and fresh."
