5.0 out of 5 stars Perfecting Your Buddha Grooves., April 21, 2008

By	G. Merritt (Boulder, CO) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Whenever I'm in Paris (which isn't often enough), I make it a point to get my Buddha Groove on at the Buddha Bar (http://www.buddha-bar.com/), which (in addition to its passionfruit martinis) is known for its avant-garde "Lounge" and "Chill" playlist. The "Buddha Bar" series was started by Tunisian house DJ Claude Challe, who practically invented the chill genre of lounge music in 1999 by mixing Occidental elements with spiritual elements together in his music. Drawing from previous collections produced and sequenced by house DJs Claude Challe, DJ Ravin, Sam Popat, Jean-Pierre Danel, and David Visan, this retrospective Buddha Bar compilation is a transcendent mix of electronica-driven global grooves with Middle Eastern, Brazilian, North African, Vietnamese, Hungarian, Indian, and Malian influences and hip Parisian references. The 30 tracks featured on the two CDs offer a perfect introduction to the Buddha Bar series:

1. Suite N°3 BWV 1068 (Air) - Jean-Sébastien Bach,
2. Light Signs - Riccardo Eberspacher
3. Moonrise - Nitin Sawhney
4. Felicidade - Suba
5. Chura Liya - Nomadix
6. Guru Bramha - Jai Uttal
7. Indian Summer - Al-pha-X

4.0 out of 5 stars good chill out music, May 6, 2009

By	Pam Senter (Queens) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I first heard this CD while attending a yoga class in Los Angeles. Bought it right away and have really enjoyed it since. It's ok for something like yoga, but I like it best as background music. It's great for parties or other occasions where you want to talk, but enjoy light music in the background. This is a good sampler for people who are interested in getting a feel for the Buddha Bar series.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect compilation, April 10, 2007

By	Jose Antonio Velazquez - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Nice compilation of all kinds of styles in music, but under certain style of relaxing. It comes with a nice DVD wich shows what Buddha Bar is all arround the globe. The second cd is my favourite, from track number 6 to 10. I totally recomend this cd. The only bad think i have to say about this box, is the poor quality of the cover and back (improperly glued), they should put more attention how or who makes this boxes.
