I do agree with one of the other reviewers in that the album has flow problems, and it jumps too much at some points. Then one day, at my ex's house, I spotted Anokha on her CD rack. I'd heard Flight IC408 years ago, never really gave it much attention. On the whole, though, I love it. I popped it in, and was blown away. Jaan is one of the coolest tracks I've ever heard, I'm still trying to find a set to hook it into(and I'm close). Can't wait to get into more of his stuff. :)
I bought this CD thinking about the indian-electronic music, and i get disappointed when i heard it, it hasn't the indian essence like other CD's, it's more electronic than anything, and believe me that i'm a fan of talvin singh, karsh kale, cheb i sabbah and more.but anyway it has few cool songs, all are from talvin singh, one from state of bengal "flight IC408" and from Rahman (mumbai theme tune), it's like a bollywood score
The rest were trash.I should have known because I purchased "Ha" before, another Talving Singh CD and only one track was good on that one "Mustard Fields". what a terrible dissapointment. I bought this CD because so many good reviews about it were listed, but man. You really have to be spaced out on acid to get into any of this stuff if you ask me. This CD is just plain awfull and I think I have an eclectic music taste. This is TRANCE music, only one track remained in my collection and that was "Chitagong Chill". I made myself a note to NEVER purchase another Talvin Singh CD. I don't know how this got so many good reviews, so I had to cast my vote and try to balance the scales here.
Pretty good CD. Not exactly enough Asian influence for me.
As a new fan to the Asian underground, I was very pleased with this album. I was not quite sure what to expect but was pleasantly pleased with the variety of music on this CD. The two songs by Talvin Singh himself were my absolute favorite. I would definitely recommend it.
