"This is a really great album with many different sounding songs. I can't even begin to rate the tracks individually because they're all very good in their own ways. I find myself putting this on repeat all the time because it's just that good! If you listen to this and DON'T like it just give it a few more listens and it will probably grow on you. This music makes me wish I had a booty to shake...but I don't. Hehe."

I want more!

"I like about half of these tracks, which makes this better than most cd's I've heard in the past few years. The rawness/energy is like that of early 80's hip hop/electro-funk or mid 80's bass. It definitely makes you want to move. I'm glad that I own it. Now I just need to find some more of this stuff. Several of the tracks have the same basic rhythm, similar to how multiple artists will release their own version of a dancehall reggae riddim. The overall sound is of bass beats starting and stopping, mixed with traditional(?) Brazilian drums, a little electronica here and there, and energetic raps/chants. Very nice mixture. One of the tracks sounds like a carnival song with drop bass."
