This second outing of this group simply tops the first one eventhough I thought they would have a hard time topping themselves. The sound is more intimate and less drum'n bass, thanks to more involvement by Bugge. Very hip but very subtle. Highly recommended and worth every import price tag.

I discovered this talented Groove-Drum and Bass while shopping at a local Ferndale record store. This is a day I will never forget because my yearnings were fulfilled!

I sampled Beady Belle's CD and didn't even past the 4th track before I was rushing to the counter to purchase this album.

It is so eccentric and exuberant. Beate's voice and the music flows so effortlessly. She was born to sing in this group. Since then, I have become a life long fan and I have also purchased their previous album "Home"! I'd recommend this album to anyone looking for music with real substance and relaxed and mellow instrumentation with words that will make you truly aware of whats going around you!

Very seldom do you find that one jewel in the pile of studio produced garbage these days! If you're looking for mature, funky, smooth, drum and base, acid jazz etc., this is that jewel. Vocals are real and pure and the music...well, trust me, buy this one folks! Excellent, Excellent, Excellent!
P.S. Hip Hoppers, you'll like this one too!

I bought this album per a recommendation from a DJ. Let me advise you that this is a jewel! The smoothness of Belle's voice is phenomenal. The production is tremendous. Once you play track 1, you will listen until the end without ever skipping a track. You will also not want the cd to end.

I highly recommend this to everyone!

I am a guy who loves hiphop and I didn't even think I'd wanna listen to what some girl from Norway had to sing. Then I heard "Big Balloon" by chance and decided I had to check out the rest of the album.
Let me tell you, this girl is a great singer, the production is supreme, this is a classy chilled out album and one I would recommend you buy.

The vocals are precise and the lyrics are thought-provoking. This is a smart lady at work. Believe me when I say this album is unlike anything you've heard and when you hear it you'll be glad you did. Personally I recommend "April Fool", "Big Balloon" and "Hindsight" as my favourite tracks. "September" is another gem.
Ms. Belle, if you're reading this, you've made one hiphop head change his thinking!

As the title of the album states: complex, easy, white, black, electronic, acoustic, groovy, ambient, programmed, played, improvised, composed, and so much more! It is a great cd to just sit and chill to. Thanks to D-Nice @ Moods music for intruducing me to such a great album.

I just returned from this year's Toronto Jazz Festival and found out about this group in the Festival Guide. After reading a review of the group's music and sound,I was definitely intriqued. I found a copy of their latest and was pleasantly blown away. All the descriptions of their sound are true. They are simply a unique and eclectic group that deserves wide recognition. I would've given this release 5 stars except that I found the lyrics odd (subject matter-wise) though they are sung extremely well. Beate (the singer)has a great voice and is a very confident singer. If you're looking for something new, check this out. You won't be disappointed.

Beady Belle is certainly one of the most original acts to come around in quite a long time. Their sound is a unique amalgamation of electronic and acoustic elements. Each track is highly individual, yet retains their unique feel.

Cewbeagappic has everything from house to drum and bass to more classic jazz.

Beate Lech's vocals are absolutely spellbinding. I find myself listening to this LP over and over again. You just don't want it to end.

If you like Brand New Heavies, you like the cool and sensual rhythms of Erika Badu and the house&jazzy touch of Saint Germain.. all three together... this is your CD !
I heard the CD and also saw the group live in San Sebastian Jazz Festival (26thJune) I can say that she has a very nice voice, the live performance did not dissapoint me.
