4.0 out of 5 stars
Seductive, March 20, 2003
From the opening Qawali wail through the final passionate work out from Femi Kuti, this is a very seductive disc, ambient, techno inspired and otherworldly in every respect. I'm way too old to do ecstacy, but, as I listen to this I get that Peter Gabriel sense of "I love to be loved." Indeed, this is all mood enticingly seductive and relaxing. This sets you in a very different fram of mind and should never, never be listened to while driving a car, or operating heavy machinery. Get yourself parked on a sofa, a bed, the bloody floor for that matter with someone you want to squeeze, and take the ride. Techno culprits Ben Hassan and Riccardo Eberspacher and Mars Lasser are featured, and whoever this DJ producer is has done an intoxicatingly good job blending the sirens' calls. I emerged from listening to this for 2 hours like Woody Allen in SLEEPERS with his orgasmatron. This is non essential all the way, but if you have the [$$] to blow on some fun, this is great.

Wearing out the thesaurus for adjectives, January 30, 2005
Beautiful. Passionate. Sensual. Entrancing. Magical. Relaxing. Enveloping. Uplifting. Focusing. Amazing. Unclassifiable, yet universal. Distant, yet familiar. Transcendent, yet intimate.
I recommend this CD set without hesitation or qualification. You may never have heard "eastern" or "world music" before but I really believe you'll be delighted. And if you're already familiar with world music, you'll find great riches here.
I especially recommend this CD for listening while soaking in a warm, scented bath, with a dozen candles lit in the bathroom, and sipping a glass of wine. Or while getting a massage to unkink all your tension and stress. Or while....well, I'll just smile and say nothing more here, letting you use your imagination.
Enjoy the blessings of this lovely music.

Pure Bliss, February 24, 2006
This is an amazing CD that will capture your soul. I have all of the Buddah Bar CD's and this is by far my favorite. If you like really good trance or want to just hear a good mix of music, get this CD.
