Music reviews of London Undersound
Music Review: Global Journey through a Variety of Emotions
Rating: 4 Stars
First, the fact that I didn't give this album five stars isn't a reflection of the quality of the music, but is simply a way to give some basis for my judgement (Five Star albums are classics IMO - i.e. Radiohead's Kid A, Michael Jackson Off the Wall etc).
Back to the point. This album is fantastic. I haven't had it long enough to determine whether or not it'll be in heavy rotation, but it's definitely great for a global musically journey. If you can, grab the "bonus track" version. Definitely an album with dark undertones, which if you're familiar with Nitin's music, shouldn't be at all surprising given his penchant for mirroring his music by various relevant political and social issues.
If you can, cop the Bonus Track Version as some of the remixes give an interesting twist to the original tracks (namely Distant Dreams, Shadowland and Ek Jaan).
Favorite Tracks: Distant Dreams (Bossa-ish rhythm with smokey vocals), Shadowland, Bring It Home feat Imogen Heap ("typical" Nitin with a drum and bass infused break), Daybreak and Ek Jaan.
Enjoy! If you're a fan of Nitin Sawhney or globally-infused "electronic" (no, not duff-duff beats but forward-looking rhythms and drum kicks) music it's well worth the money!
