I have listened to this CD hundreds, maybe thousands of times and it has never failed to make me happy. The most joyful, danceable music ever recorded, in my opinion. It is a great CD for kids and adults of all ages. I can't recommend it highly enough.

This is not my first time listening to this kind of music, but this album was pretty cool! I've always had a soft spot for the perculiar tempo/rhythm of my native African music, especially Makosa and South African pop. Despite feeling a *tad* bit repetitive, this album does not disappoint.

This album has a very light-hearted and upbeat tone (in no small part due to the strong yet jovial female voices on most of the vocals). Especially the track "Ditsala Tsami (My Friends)". I love that track! I also like "Cellular (The Marvel of Technology)". It's a fun song, and the title alone made me LOL! I especially like the song "Zwidofhela (Everything Will Be Alright)"... it made me FEEL.

I am really looking for their album "Izindunduma", which has a few really good tracks. If anyone can get it for me, I am willing to pay! Drop me a line please! proud2bgeek at hotmail dot com.

As is typical with this genre of music, most of the songs are VERY danceable. Fans of Makosa and Afro-Pop will feel right at home with this album. Check it out!
