4.0 out of 5 stars Siddharta Volume III, April 13, 2006

This review is from: Siddharta: Spirit of Buddha Bar 3 (Audio CD)

I have the other 2 Siddharta volumes, all Buddha Bar's, (including 8...don't buy 8...it's really a tragedy!) and two Chill Out in Paris CD's. Volume III, while different than the previous volumes, is quite good. It's an additional flavor & compliment to the other volumes. Ravin has a great ear for music and blending tracks. On the first disc, cut 7, he found an unbelievable hip, up to date rendition of "Chain of Fools". This volume is not as ethnic as the others but Ravin shows nice range in mixing volume III. And not to worry, it's not without its ethnicity. The first disc starts very smooth & hip building tempo in the end tracks. In disc two, he takes it up a notch with some nice electronic with culture & class...not the hard repetitive thump with no soul or lyrics. If you like the Buddha Bar and the previous two Siddharta's, it's likely Siddharta III will not disappoint.

Ok people, let me tell you that I pre-ordered this CD almost 3 months ago and I finally recieved it today. I have the other 2 Siddhartas, I and II and let me tell you that I had huge optimism that this 3rd compilation was going to be as good...not so. If you liked the previous Siddhartas that by the way I will rate them as a solid 5 stars ( a must have!) this new compilation is short to be there with them. It has exquisite tracks, specially the first 2 songs witch I thought are amazing. But then the CD shows its shortcomings. I would have liked much more "ethnic" music mixed with synth, electronics, etc. The CD has some music with songs in English, I would have like to hear more aboriginal dialects than anything else. Yes, if you are looking weather you should or shouldn't buy the CD I will say to you to go ahead and buy it. Siddharta III has 2 CD's inside as the other Sidds do, but as far as I am concerned the 2nd CD is not of my taste. I do enjoy very much the 1st CD of all Buddha bars and Nirvanas, but the 2nd CD, the one that is more upbeat, I simply cant hear them. Buy the CD and enjoy very good music, just dont expect to be as flawless and beautiful as the first 2 compilations. Peace!

This CD is good dont get me wrong, but compared to the first 2 it lacks intensity and flow. It is still nice to hear and has some exotic and sensual songs. But I highly recommend the first 2. DJ Ravin is a mixing magician he creates awesome awesome transcendental music. Im sure we will be on the look out for the next amazing CD.
