Groovy house from a bygone era.......2004-09-26

The Techno Mancer series is not exactly "techno" in the contemporary meaning of the word (i.e. Tresor, Richie Hawtin, etc.), but is a great example of early 90s rave music. Volume 3, "The Groove Edition", is a collection of dreamy and dancey prog house from before prog house was boring. "I Can't Stop", "Piece of Mine", "Cruising" and "Virtual Reality" are classic melodic piano/organ house tracks, subdued but still ravey. My favorite track is the tweaked-out "Ultra Terra", which is sure to have your head spinning. (The weird vocal sample in Ultra Terra is actually sliced up pieces of a sample of Leon Theremin recalling the moment of his birth, which can be heard in the first scene of the "Theremin: An Electronic Oddessy" documentary-- weird!) There are only a couple of tracks that require the skip button, namely "Dispute (You're Such A Baby)", which sounds like Tom Jones on ecstasy, but most of the tracks are pretty solid. If you're open to getting a little silly and feeling the love, Techno Mancer 3 is your groovy rave dream.

Not enough here.......2002-05-20

There's, literally, 1 incredible track on here: Palm Skin Productions's "The Beast (Autechre Mix)". The rest of the record just sort of meanders apologetically under the nom de plume of "Ambient music". Just because the music is supposed to be smooth doesn't mean it should bore, and this record sort of comes off like the smooth jazz of the genre.

Except for that one track. That one track almost makes the whole trip worthwhile. If you can find it used for under 10 bucks, get it. If you can find the track on any other album, get it.

I have 2, 3, and 4 in this series and this is definitely the most addictive of the three. This and Torch Song's "Into the Unknown Region" are definitely two of the must haves of this genre. You can easily forget that the CD is playing. Like lining your walls and floors with soft pillows.... Where can I find more Ambient Groove this good?

not even a Johnny Vicious track could save this one........2005-04-13

I had read that Susan Moribito mixes are quite boring from reviews of her other discs, but I figured it couldn't be that bad, especially considering this was part of the Party Groove series. I should have taken the advice of other reviews. This is really repetitive, non-vocal stuff in the soulful, funky house variety. To me, this is the kind of music that, if played continuously like this in a club, would probably clear the dance floor, unless the crowd was high on rugs and feeling really euphoric. I could never listen to an hour of this on my own time at home. Even the last track, a Johnny Vicious song, didn't live up to his quality of dance music. For those who like this music and these tracks, here are the song lengths:

1. deep south (6:47)
2. Groove me (6:32)
3. Everyday (6:01)
4. Rebirth (5:56)
5. It's up to you (6:14)
6. Ya dig (6:13)
7. Babalu (6:26)
8. White exploitation (7:39)
9. Egyptian drummer (6:31)
10. back to brazil (6:58)

No cookie-cutter anthems here; technically sound originals and nicely reworked divas .......2005-11-22

While Centaur was forced to utilize technology that would keep fans from burning and freely sharing their discs (can you blame them? can anyone make an honest living in the music biz anymore?!) they continue to be THE label that provides event-based compilations. We may have (sadly) seen the final Fireball event but Paulo's CD continues to provide a hot and deep soundtrack for a more sophisticated ear. You want your "pink ponytails"
beatmatched into the next top 40 track? Go elsewhere; otherwise stick around and shake it for a sexy trip.

The worst in the series....won't get your party jumpin.......2005-07-22

For the most part, it's like a DJ invited you into his room and began playing you repetitive filler beats and rhythms. So boring. One of the new mixes of Ultra Nate adds some vocal flavor, and finally, much later on, He Gives More lures you into thinking the party has finally begun. On the brightside, this Billboard Dance Chart club hit runs over 7 minutes. Then, to put a club anthem like Joint Is Jumpin on here in a 4 minute dub medley with another track just goes to show how badly they missed the mark here. And finally, the last 2 vocal tracks remind you what this mix COULD have been. Track times:

1. feelings (5:39)
2. Destiny drum (3:59)
3. Free (5:10)
4. Oh yeah (5:54)
5. a better world (4:41)
6. Allow the drums (5:39)
7. Ride the beat (4:55)
8. He gives more (7:36)
9. drum roll (4:41)
10. Chapter two/the joint is jumpin (3:54)
11. Fast groove (1:28)
12. sun rising up (5:39)
13. u ain't that good (6:34)

I love DJ Paulo, don't like the CD.......2005-05-14

The CD is copy-protected. You cannot save the files as MP3s. The Flash software on the CD says you can make WMA copies of the files and play them in Windows Media Player (or use the Carbonlib extension on MAC). No wonder the CD is not being sold directly from Amazon and takes a few days to deliver. Whatever specialty retailer is selling the CDs does not care about the computer-based audience. People want to use their Ipods to listen to music. Not be stuck using old-time CD Players. I don't put on this type of CD in the car because I only want to hear like 4 or five songs. It ends up being a waste of space.

The music was good. I especially liked tracks 1 and 4 but I will only be listening the once. The CD will go to my Archive Pile since I can't walk around with any of the music.

Kind of useless if you ask me.

If I was taking the time to buy the CD why would I be giving away the songs to other people?

I obviously appreciate the music enough to buy it and not download a copy but... Since the record company (Centaur) does not seem to trust its own customers I guess I will have to avoid their CDs. I guess I will have to look on ITunes and Beatport for the songs I like.

If you want a great non-copy protected CD look at Live@Roxy 4 by Peter Rauhofer. Great CD

A Very Smooth CD!.......2002-03-23

The CD has great music from back in the 80's when music was in the 12 inch vinyl LP (album) days. You will enjoy the music and the reasons why I bought this CD. This CD reminds me of roller skating birthday/after school parties at the roller rink back in day during the break dancing era of the 80's. I like all of the three 12" remixes of "Sanctified Lady" by Marvin Gaye, "Centipede" by Rebbie Jackson, and "Wake Up Everybody" by Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes. This CD will bring back memories if you ever host an 80's party in the future. It will keep the old schoolers dancing in the Soul Train Line when they hear "Ain't Gonna Hurt Nobody" by Brick, "Back in Stride" by Maze featuring Frankie Beverly. This CD is smooth when you hear the other late disco songs by Ashford & Simpson, Chaka Khan, Three Degrees, Isley Brothers, and my favorite jazz artist George Duke with "Shine On". This CD is a must buy.

More dynamic jazz excursions.......2003-12-10

Volume 3 (5/11/02, Fox Theatre, Boulder, CO) is energetic and tasty. "Thursday" is a slice of Rhodes-fried groove that sounds like Steely Dan with Prince on vocals. "Stoked On Razaki" is a frantic exercise in speed-jazz that features Jamie Janover on his custom-made "Mini-Kit", adding more depth to the undulating rhythm. The whole thing ends with an instrumental cover of Madonna's "Material Girl" that spans 17 minutes. Without a doubt, this version explores every possible reach of this precious melody of the 1980's. Using the vocal lines as a road map, Haque urges the band into several sections of differing dynamics that range from thick and funky to tear jerking. You won't know whether to laugh or cry by the time Levy inserts a delicate keyboard solo into the sonic space that the band has wrestled out of this odd cover song.

A Pleasant Cup of Tea.......2000-10-06

The album is good! If you enjoy Blue Note or Brazilian music then its more than worth the small price. Blue Note fans will particularly enjoy this album as the fusion of styles is well suited and executed.

The album starts off in high spirits of the Samba then meanders through the Blue notes of Brazil, excellent for dinner parties or nights in.

However the only point of caution would be to those of you who would be into hard core Brazilian Music, then this might not be your favorite cup of tea, all be it one to which you may wish to experience.
