The funny thing is I'm also on the 'techhouse' list and I love the Jephte
Guillaume album ! It's really beautiful , the kind of thing you can put on
and float around in ... if you're looking for 'phat beats' or in yr face
production tricks , this isn't the record for you ... but a seeker of
beautiful 'fourth world' music to play loud at home on a sunny day should
seek no further ...
Also ... I've played cuts off this in clubs before ... if it sounds good to
you , it will probably sound good to them ... so just play it , partner ...
woo woo !
Word up ,
