"I must say I was really excited about receiving this cd, according to the reviews. Unfortunately I was somewhat dissapointed, while disc 1 gives you garden variety of cool house tracks with awesome hooks, track 5 especially is my favorite and is mixed extremely well and can definitely get you in the mood to go out on the town. However disc 2 is really annoying, it's too circuit sounding with too many obnoxious vocals. Every song has some oversung vocal and it's almost gospel sounding, if you like extra soulful all vocal house and you wanna feel like your sitting in a church choir then disc 2 is for you. Don't get me wrong I love vocals but this is overkill!!, it just didn't seem to fit with the theme of "Bargrooves" more like "Soul glow Grooves". Anyway, disc 1 is a keeper but disc 2 can stay in the sleeve."

Nice!

"This is a nice deep house production. If you like this, check out the first full length CD for producer Quentin Allen as Karu. There are other 12" releases on Silver Network, Dadhouse, Winding Road, Mimosa & Smooth Agent. This CD is a very consistant production with a good blend of jazz, hip-hop, techno, neo-soul, and deep house all together. The beats are very crisp and sound good in the car, the house or the club. Some songs tastefully use vocal snippets to add flavor. There is even a track featuring Warren Harris aka Hanna (Shadow Records, Silver Network, Flat & Round, Freerange). If you want good quality deep house, this CD is for you."
