Discovery

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: Daft Punk

March 13, 2001
I bought this CD at the CD store. I got it on my birthday. I heard it was a great CD, so I bought it. It was great! My parents and my nanny liked it, too! It has a little bit of funk, disco, and electro. I really liked how they mixed it all together! This CD was very good.

Cross

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: Justice

July 10, 2007
I had downloaded a couple of justice songs and loved them after a few days for them to grow on me but Cross just blew my mind. At times the tracks sound discordant and chaotic but all of them falll into a beat eventually. Most people dont like "ttthhheee parrrtttyyy" but there is something about it that i love, just an afterthought.

Technique (2 CD Collector's Edition)

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: New Order

November 11, 2008
The MUSIC on these New Order reissues get a 5/5, easily. However, there were far too many egregious mistakes made in the creation of the discs themselves to give them a pass. Only the first discs were re-mastered though they still have some problems, it is the bonus discs that are an absolute mess.

Warner Music/Rhino know about these problems, but there is yet no word on any forthcoming fixes. So I'd hold off until these issues are addressed.

Noted below are the specific problems with the Technique reissue:

1, Fine Time
2, All the way
3, love less (click at 0:04 - unconfirmed)
4, Round and round
5, Guilty partner
6, Run
7, Mr disco
8, vanishing point
9, Dream ... Read More:

In Search of Sunrise, Vol. 7: Asia

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: DJ Tiësto

June 10, 2008
I bought a couple of Tiesto's In search of sunrise discs (disc 3 and 4) and I didn't really like them. I didn't think Tiesto was a great DJ. I decided to give him another try and bought Elements of Life and Loved it and I bought many of his other CD's after that. I then decided to give ISOS one more shot and I bought the Aisa disc set and I was blown away. This is truly an amazing work.
The first disc is slower with lost of vocal (which I love) and the second Disc is much more up beat and has an epic trance feel.
I would highly recommend this album to anyone that loves Tiesto!!

Mushroom Jazz, Vol. 6

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: Mark Farina

October 21, 2008
Having just listened to Mushroom Jazz 6 for the first time, I can tell even from this first listen that this is probably going to become my favorite Mushroom Jazz album of the series.

Without a doubt, this is the volume that really emphasizes the "Jazz" part of its name. With a smooth, groovy and swinging vibe throughout, Mushroom Jazz 6 takes the listener on a wonderfully trippy tour of the jazzy side of Mark Farina's dope downtempo beats. My toe has been tapping and my head has been bobbing to the beat throughout, which is what it's all about, right??

Highly recommended. If you're familiar with the series, just buy it and be prepared to enjoy the sonic trip...

Of All the Things

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: Jazzanova

October 21, 2008
This may not be what you expect. So check out their myspace page to preview a few tracks from this disk...

The unifying sound here harkens back to the mid-seventies--lush strings and horns, energetic beats, itchy guitars, soulful harmonies and soaring lead vocals. Some may feel that this more closely resembles Gnarls Barkley than previous Jazzanova disks, but this album could have come from no one else. A sensitive ear will recognize the Jazzanova sound buried deep within the mix. But this album isn't so much about the Jazzanova sound. It's about the songs. And the songs are wonderful--with terrific performances and fine writing.

And while this may lack some of the in-your-face dynamics and energy of the remix albums or the "In Between" ... Read More:

Last Night

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: Moby

April 01, 2008
2 1/2

Last Night feels more like a controlled effort to convince fans he has returned to his dancefloor roots rather then a genuine album that makes you want to move like his old classics Play and Everything is Wrong provided, instead at best mimicking the old prototype with tracks such as "Everyday It's 1989" interspersed with half-cooked attempts to update a stale palate.

Play

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > House
by: Moby

June 01, 1999
Just bought this CD a couple of weeks ago. I enjoyed listening to it because there's something different about these music compared to contemporary ones. Although obviously they are very modern, you can say Moby's technique of utilizing notes harks back to medieval times. The prolongation of some notes (which are hypnotizing) resembles those of the chants used in religious services. The transitions can be compared to majority of the classical/baroque music. And who could miss the vocals that resemble arias?
