4 out of 5 stars Music from the Motherland.......2001-11-03

When i first got the album i didnt know what to expect. Once i listened to it i was amazed. The album has a mix of house and late nite club grooves intertwined w/heavy african elements (i.e drumming, chanting)This album is a definite purchase, especially for those wanting someting deeper in their music.

5 out of 5 stars Do It Again and Again !!!.......2000-08-08

I just hope there will be an Afro-Lounge 3,4,5 on and on. As a matter of a fact where is 1. Any way, Joe Claussell's Nigerian Udu drumming and chanting on track 3 is nothing short of genius that wont get its credit. He should do more with Udu drumming in house tracks. That deep sound from the clay pots vibrate a dance floor to no end. And Watch Them Come by Men From the Nile, track 5 is just otherworldly.

5 out of 5 stars nitegrooves!.......2000-04-11

this is a really good compilation. you got ron trent/anthony nicholson (USG) on remix duties, roland clark, and deep house don chris brann, who's "cascades of color" track really stands out, well worth buying this for the track alone.

4 out of 5 stars All the bliss that is Afro inspired House music........1999-11-30

Twelve tracks, unmixed, this CD feature's a collection of Hi's (King Street/Nitegrooves guru) latest gems.  Track one, MORE THAN GOLD (Shelter Mix) succeeds in both name and delivery although a bit stretched.  The ruff, ragga vocal delivery adds to the tracks unique style.  How best to describe this album?  Afro Beat meets Jazz meets house.  And the point where they intersect is pure bliss.  Track 5, WATCH THEM COME by Men from the Nile featuring Peven Everett. "They come and they come From the around the world" Another crowd pleaser, Cascades of Color (Journey to Color Mix) by Ananda Project featuring Gaelle Addison. "Sunrise and the sunset when the night falls . . ." Beautiful 4/4 vocals, soothing track, tight production, excellent delivery.  If you are looking for House music incorporating Afro, Cuban and Jazz elements, cop this album for a musical journey evoking the bliss of all that is Afro inspired House.
