5.0 out of 5 stars MY SECRET RENDEZVOUS!, March 9, 2004

If you're looking for an album that will truly take you away from it all, this is this one!!! I picked up "Rendezvous Lounge" yesterday after being very disgusted with "St. Moritz Vibes Volume 2." And might I say that "Rendezvous Lounge" is the coolest, most sophisticated and original compilation albums I have heard in a looong while. Chalked full of rare grooves from the likes of Alchemx, Redfish, Praful, Black Might Orchestra, Mark Gorbulew (mixer of the "Le Groove Electique" series)and a host of others, this baby is just what you'll need for that bougie dinner party, or that night of romance with yo' significant other, or for personal introspective thinking. Mixer Gorbulew has done a masterful job of compiling songs that go well together, each with landscapes of intricately layered rhythms--no hallucinogenic sirens here...just excellent music with the right mix of jazz, funky basslines, atmospherics, low BPM house and even the blues. If you buy any comp CD this year or ever, make it this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Close Your Eyes. Let The Music Take You Away...and it will, October 1, 2004

This album definitely caters to listeners of down-tempo, electronic music. It is really a great CD. It's great for entertaining or when you and your closest friends are simply lounging around. Some of my colleagues, to whom I have introduced this music, even find that it's great for studying or reading. I certainly agree. Not only will this CD bring you to a place of complete relaxation after a hard day at work or school, it's smooth, consitent beat will take you away to another place.

I think, though, that this CD falls into the category of Fusion, rather than pure electronic jazz. It's very similar to what one would hear on a typical "love" or "romance" music station in any large, urban market, but without a lot of the saxophonic solos, the sultry disckjockeys and annoying commerical advertisements interrupting the sequence or flow.

I freeked when I got Afterlife 'Spec of Gold', then I was buying Playstic Budda's 'Throwing Stones in a Placid Pool'(who I found on Ambient Lounge 3) when Rendezvous popped up around the shopping cart page.. so I took a gamble and now can't get enough of this cd. it delivers song after song.. this Mark guy knows how to pick them. I'll look into his other stuff.
