3.0 out of 5 stars Great in small doses, August 19, 2005

This is a fun Bhangra mix, but for those new to Bhangra, or those very familiar with it, I would opt for a straight Panjabi MC CD-I find I play those more often than Bar Bhangra. It's as if the producers were trying to get the quintessential Bhangra sound, and the result is that the songs begin to sound boringly similar midway through the album.

At the same time, as part of a larger mix (think iPod), this CD is a great addition!

This is a great collection of Bhangra for anyone just getting started. It offers many well-known Bhangra artists and a taste of the "dinka dinka dinka" sound that is Bhangra's trademark. The standout tracks are from MIDIval PunditZ, Swami, Achanak, and Panjabi MC.

If you're looking for good Bhangra, check out Desi Nation. Together, both albums can easily support an impromptu dance party, heavy on the dhols.
