Heh, I got to this comment just as the bomba-deng part kicked in.  I agree with the sentiment, wholeheartedly.

I think that might be deliberate and I kind of like the effect. It seems to induce a sense of anticipation. ?

Nice groove!  Starts with the middle eastern sound that seems to be coming more into the main stream these days, mixed with a modern dub sound.

Tip: check out Asian Dub Foundation. IMHO: They're like this, only a lot better. Try the album Community Music from 2000, it's my favourite.

This bows my head in reverance to dearly departed music lovers, like Joe Strummer, who absorbed these sounds through osmosis and introduced the magic to the western hordes.............., check out his last album.............this is so sweet and accessible with an open ear...........close your eyes and just dance, kids

Mind open, Music good. I agree it is not for all moods, but that is true for most things - especially music

It is different enough to groove to, I will go buy CD

It got me going straight away, and I was going to give it a 8 then saw the negative comments and low ratings so bumped it up to 9. Nice mix of electronica, dub and Middle Eastern sounds. An eclectic tune for an eclectic station, right enough.

Not sure exactly why, but I kinda like it. I always look to see what it is when it plays and look at the posts.

Rotterdam - I just don't enjoy this music and don't find it beautiful. I don't like 99% of rap either - that's just the way it is. I'm glad you like it but it's insulting to infer that people don't enjoy it because their minds are closed.
Posted 15 years ago by top20    [ Reply ]
No one likes a wider variety of music than me... but this is just boring. It's far too repetitive. There is a single chord being played 8 times, switching to a second chord for 8 beats, then repeat... I need a melody... something that isn't atonal.

Thanks for that, Alpine. I searched around and found several (more or less positive) comments regarding his vine. If I can find him in a shop in Hannover I'll definitely give him a try. You should check German 'Dornfelder' and Australian 'Shiraz' (look for vine that grows in the Hunter Valley or Barossa Valley, they are expensive but delicous!).
