CD Reviews
Superb CD

"I bought this cd well-knowing what to expect after hearing the group's tracks on Hed Kandi compilation releases. Tracks like "Seemingly Sleepy," "Empty Streets," "All For Nothing," and "Nothing Left To Say" were all personal favorites.
Being a down-tempo fan, I was surprised to find that such tracks like "Rainy Days," "Eros" and "Sunrise Comes Too Soon" were also very good. Think soft, whispery-vocals that slightly resemble Björk, except with a soft & smooth jazzy style that mixes Kaskade's best house music and Naked Music down-tempo (e.g. Aya, Carte Blanche).
Kaskade, being one of the members of this solid group, dosen't fail to disappoint. If you are a fan of Hed Kandi, Kaskade or Miguel Migs, you'll be very pleased with this purchase."
Enjoyable album

"I've always enjoyed Late Night Alumni. My introduction to them was through the inclusion of their songs on Hed Kandi compilations. I rushed out to find this cd as soon as it was released. I am not disapointed in the least. It's a nice relaxing album to listen to anytime, morning or night. It's very chillout with a hint of electronica thrown in. Highlights include the title track, "Seemingly Sleepy", "Beautiful", "Meant To Be", "Nothing Left to Say" and the latin influenced "The Rest of You". Check it out!"
Nice Relaxing CD

"When I first heard the song "Empty Street" by Late Night Alumni on last.fm I was so mesmorized by the vocal. It was soft and easy, yet the beats were along its vocal to give you a little move to your body. It's a really nice, relaxing CD!"
Great CD
