French Dj/Producer Christophe Le Friant AKA Bob Sinclar delivers his third studio album with the previous hit single "Love Generation" and the official world cup song "World Hold On" and just like before he releases an album that every dance music fan is going to enjoy, eventhough it may be his most commercial to date. Hypnotic beats and very catchy melodies is the trademark, but this time around it get's more evident that he's been finding influence from all around the world. Gary "Nesta" Pine from the Wailers appears on many songs, including "Love Generation" and adds alot of his Jamaican sound to the songs, and ditto with the other song "World, Hold On" that got everything it takes to be a huge summer hit. Pine also appears on the songs "Miss Me" "Shining From Heaven" and the accoustic "Give A Little Love". "Tennessee" is blues inspired for example and "Amora, Amor" latin. "Everybody Movin" sounds like Prince? and "For You" is pure rock while "Sing My Song" is a funky soul song. Other then the already release 2 songs I'm crazy for "In The Name Of Love" a very retro sounding floor filler bound to make people dance. "Western Dream" is a welcomed dance album in a time where few really good dance albums are realeased and the ones that are done, are either lounge or rock-insired. Bob Sinclar doesn't make it difficult, he releases an album with many influences but with a sound that is easy to like and sing a long to. Needless to say, "Western Dream" is a happy album for both the average music fan to fans of old-fashioned dance music.

this album will make you move, smile, and reflect.
It's a great mix of different beat styles and has a huge coherence.
Also most of the riffs are pretty original, it doesnt try to be cool like recent house music.
Any fan of electro music must have this album, could be sinclar's best.

I bought this for the tracks "Love Generation" and "World Hold On" and discovered 4 others just as good. This is definitely worth the money.

Just bought the album for two very nice songs and at first I have to admit I was scared that those were the only good songs and I wasted my money, but after hearing it several times I got to like most of them a lot!!
Now the album it's part of my at hand car collections of disks hanging on visor!

Definitely a good buy!!

This album es amazing, it fills you in diferent ways, it is a perfect combination of sound, music, voices. Listen it is a pleasure, dancing it it is even more!!

if i could pick only one emotion this albums push into me while listening i would say: "it makes me feel happy".

The albums starts of with that smashing "love generation" tune that made more than one million worldwide and was number one internationally.

To top it all, "World Hold On" was selected the theme tune for the 2006 World cup in Germany this summer, which is also included in this album. Once heard you will instantly understand that this track was made for radio, with the return of the perfect whistle hook, composed from Bob's actual whistling, the song has already been receiving support on Radio 1 from Pete Tong who has made it his essential new tune as well as Vernon Kay

Now, you can draw from there, this is not an album you'd want to miss. It's what i like to call: Happy House
