5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful surprise from 2 memebrs of Faithless, February 1, 2001

By	Brice Van Dyck "bricevan-dyck" (Amsterdam, Amsterdam Netherlands) - See all my reviews

This is one of the top 5 Cd of last year. Good evolution in rythm (from deep to high and inverse). Good mix. Good different style music with the main stream being what I would call "profond easy listening" music with deep lirics. It can be listen to while reading a book, while drinking awith some friends, while dreaming,.... In one word my advise concerning this CD is "BUY" Enjoy your listening Brice

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, August 20, 2000

By	Gwyn Moxham (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: When We Were Young (Audio CD)

Produced by Rollo of Faithless, with many songs co-written by Dido (Rollo's sister, and the singer from Eminem's 'Stan'). That aside, this album is seriously beautiful, cruising on a Euphoric, post-rave, Chill-out vibe, yet capturing the breakbeat melancholy of the now virtually extinct trip-hop movement started in Bristol by Portishead in the early 90s.

From the opening, 'Childhood', through to the end 'If I had a child', this album is very much a concept album, celebrating the good, and the bad aspects of childhood, yet it's continuous shifting from track to track makes the album feel more like a DJ mix in the thoughtful chill-out/breakbeat room of a good club...

As Paul Oakenfold says of this album - 'Madness - this is going to be a big hit!'. OK - so you americans can only get it on Import but it's worth it. WELL worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars I only wish Dido were on here, March 16, 2001

Rollo Armstrong, Dido Armstrong's brother, has created a wonderful album full of amazing concepts, beats and soulful vocals (when there are some). i only wish Dido could have appeared on this album to make it truly wonderful. i think i would put Rollo (aka Dusted) in the catagories with the wonderful hypnotic sounds of Sigur Ros or Godspeed you Black Emeperor! even though there is a definite sound difference. This album may seem expensive because it is an import, but i think that you will be fairly surprised with the depth and easy-listening capabilities of this album
