Can We Pillow Talk?, July 15, 2004
This review is from: Bedroom Communities 01: Pillow Talk (Audio CD)
"A sexy, sultry collection of 'between the sheets' grooves" is how this one is described on the cover, and it matches every word step by step.
This one is meant for the Chillout/Downtempo crowd with a lean towards a little 'Loungy" goodness. I'll outline my favorite gems on the disc but please understand that every track is a good one!
1.) Big Sand -- Hardkandy
* This is one of those tracks that you'll hate to hear end. Wait until the 1:25 point when the warm and sexy guitar takes you away!
* The overall groove is funky, but still soothing and inviting.
* The female vocals are passionate and convincing and add to the full 'sexiness' of the song without taking anything away from the other elements.
Prepare to hit 'repeat' on this one, many times! A perfect mood setter for the rest of the CD.
4.) The Sin And The Fear -- Mangataot
* True Lounge sound from start to finish.
* Organic blend of the groove and 'full-on chilled out' feeling.
* Very breathy female vocals....great touch.
From the first few chord changes, I was hooked on this one!
If your head's not spinning when this one's done, you're not doing it right!
5.) Walking In Space -- Smooth
* Striking 'vocoder' vocals play against the 'nu-school' chillout groove...nicely done.
6.) While You Sleep -- Zagar
* Very romantic and passionate track
* Great samples and scratches are a great addition to the track, not a destraction from it.
* Electronica meets Lounge and their dance is filled with sultry, sexy goodness.
My overall rating for this one is 3.5 stars. This is a nice stand alone CD, but if you can purchase the next CD in the series, ReLounge...you'll be the better for it!
From start to finish, this offering stands head and shoulders over most wanna-be Chillout/Lounge CD's.
Get this CD soon, and get on with the pillow talk!
