Industry Reviews
...something fun and cool....Tei has created something exotic and '60s-inspired that isn't merely nostalgic--an album for the future for sure.
Jazziz (12/01/1995)
6 (out of 10) - ...the boundaries of [easy listening] are not merely tampered with, but de-bagged and ravaged with all manner of Brazilian rhythms, sitar work-outs and general genius-type experiments in sound....eclecticism in excelsis...
NME (09/23/1995)
3 Stars - Good - ...a strict diet of bossa nova and samba gave him the idea for this globe trotting album of slick Latin rhythms, dayglo techno and lounge jazz...
Q (09/01/1995)
'...Deee-lite's producer and DJ romps off on his own on this delightful melodic set of rhythmic soundscapes. There's an air of innocence and ease that pervades every one of these atmospheric, jazzy tunes, and a sense of humor that makes them as listenable as they are danceable. Wonderful... - Rating: A-
