CD ReviewsSmooth & Intense Roger Williams | Miami Gardens, FL | 05/07/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "I actually preferred this release to the last one. Chillout Lounge, Vol 2 [Buddha Lounge] starts out mellow and becomes more intense as the set progresses. On Disc One, I especially enjoyed the "Palmskin Remix" of "Be Mindful" by Dust--Beautifully done with an R&B flare. Now, if you enjoy Neo-Soul, then on Disc One: Roy Ayers' "Brand New Feeling" and Will.I.Am/f.Terry Dexter's "Lay Me Down" are for you. The only Bossa Nova/Rhumba track on Disc One is "Song for Theo" by Joanna Law. Of course, the drum patterns are electronically derived, but it is nonetheless enjoyable...Very enjoyable, free- spirited and light. On Disc Two: the set starts out with the whizzy, "chemical induced" "Higher Than A SkyScraper" by Hybrid. Then, the very Jamaican-Reggae stylings of the Dub Pistols chimes through with the track "World Gone Crazy", a song that's very politically motivated in a very Bob Marley and the I-Tree's way. After that track the set gets very down-paced and chilled. You'll really enjoy this release because, as usual, it caters to many audiences. Very eclectic, indeed. I recommend you listen to this set when you're throwing a small, intimate dinner party, where everyone is mostly seated or an outdoor soiree. It also works well for bopping around an urban setting (with your MP3) or around your office."
