""A triumph! Juius is a great DJ who's up to the task of scouring the earth for quality jazz house.""Julius takes us not only on a musical journey but a blissful house experience!"Following the success of Jazz house bliss on Volume 1, Julius & Maxi do it again! Papp fans, peep the inside cover shot of Julius from WMC 1999 as he calm, cool & collectively turns it out at the Giant Step Pool party. What's his name? Say it loud! Top tracks you'll enjoy? Track 2 FEEL WHAT YOU KNOW (Kerri Chandler Mix). Listen also for the sass in the voice, "feelin good y'all" on track 10, MUSIC IS MY LIFE (Naked Music Classic Vocal) by Nikki St. Nicolas. Punctuated by a pulsating rhythm, Nikki will uplift you. But just when you thought he was done with you, Julius does it again dropping the Just Right Dub of MUSIC IS MY LIFE. Another beautiful, beautiful track, #3, DISCOMYSTIK (Excursion Mix) by Julius Papp and Dave Warren. Go Deep Vol. 2 is a Jazz House Slam Dunk!"
Too ecletic for a smooth continuous listen

"this is simply too ecletic for my tastes. It starts off with Way we Used to by Cevin Fisher, and portions of this song weave throughout the mix to good effect. This is a good start, and the following track Feel What You Know is good soulful house. Track 3 is another solid selection, with guitar weaving throughout the beat. Track 4 veers off course with a grating male voice wailing, and Track 5 So Far Away, while initally pleasant veers off into high-pitch wonker teritory. The next few tracks feature not really "deep" house with latin percussion or harmonica jamming, before dropping to the generic diva-whaling Music is My Life. It ends on a good note with the last track, but getting to it isn't worth it.Overall this disc may work if you want to dance, but as casual listening, it doesn't work for me- it maintains no theme or groove you can lock in to."
