    IT's chatchy catchy. Kosheen that is. Well constructed pop melodies
    unscored by flattering DnB and Jungle skittering beats in tasteful
    supply. Bright and sometimes ominous, but always upbeat and keeping pace
    with the hooks acting as little downhill surges. I got during the Summer
    for domestic US$. IT's worth it.

    Jazz has always seemed too beautiful for this world. Beginning in poor, derelict New Orleans, black America created a music that, in the face of a history of oppression and insult, insisted defiantly on a sublime happiness, a higher freedom. To this day, there is no such thing as anti-humanist jazz. [UK newspaper The Guardian]
