5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Compilation!, August 29, 2001

By

This review is from: She a Female Trip Hop Experience (Audio CD)

I am a relative newcomer to the genre of trip-hop music, but I know what I like. And after hearing just a sampling of this CD in a book store, I bought it immediately and have not been disappointed. For one thing, it has introduced me to artists that I had never even heard of before. And the songs selected for this album blend together beautifully to create a blissful and chilled-out atmosphere. I love it! There's something addictive and meditative about this music -- the airy and sultry female vocals nearly float effortlessly above deep trance-like bass and drums. The effect is very nice indeed. I highly recommend this CD for fans of ambient and trip-hop (and even Dido, whose songs would fit in quite nicely on this sampler). Excellent music to drift in and out of.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for a compilation, October 23, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: She a Female Trip Hop Experience (Audio CD)

A compilation is a tricky beast, a delicate balance. And buying one where you already have about half the songs on their original CDs maybe isn't that smart. But I was hoping to get turned on to something I didn't already have. Sadly, I was not. All the usuals are represented and it's nice to have them all in one place. There are some she's that weren't on there.....No Alpha, no Soma Sonic, no Morcheeba, no Supreme Beings of Leisure, no Esthero....the list goes on. There are several bands I have never heard of and probably won't go out and seek more of. But it's a nice CD, just not definitive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wicked Grooves and Voices, April 9, 2001

By 

brad simonton (NYC, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: She a Female Trip Hop Experience (Audio CD)

This is a truely wonderfull CD. It has tracks from many already established well known bands like Laika and Lamb, and if you are into trip hop you will probably already have these songs in your collection, but the best material on here is the new up and coming bands like Bitstream Dream and Kikiwest who both have gone the indie route on mp3.com, but do some of the slickest trip hop i have ever heard. It's worth a purchase, even if only for tracks 3, 5, and 10.
