Funk, Disco and House all together in an unique cd that is a result of an audiovisual project by Vurraro and Yuri X, that aim to unite funky and minimal house with unique imagery. In a memorable date of 12 original tracks, one has an energetic, funny and perfect path for a Friday that has already started.
You Got is the start point of this travel full of disco rhythms, that end with I Miss You, which reminds us the times when Masters At Work’s remixes were dancefloor killers. In the middle of this trip, we are taken to disco sounds similar to Funkstar Deluxe, in I’m So Young, strong progressive house beats with Well New Bass, Ando Hard Bass and Blondie, and we are also surrounded by a fabulous electro house in Oxigenio.
In this way, if you thought that Brazil could only export samba and country music, the proof that this conclusion is wrong is Electric Funky, a handful share of electronic rhythms to dance.

Synteticboy couldn’t have choosen another title for this album. 8 tracks comprise this incoherent journey through electro, chillout and techno. After Houre does the intro in an energetic and danceable rhythm, followed by other breaks with guitars, scratchings and vocals with Lonelly and Sound Sculptor, with chillout beats, resumed only on the last track Compressed Bass. In this ride, there is time to visit some stronger rhythms that are similar to Enigma’s first album and some that are closer to techno, with the remix of Neverland for Kate Lessing, which has all the progressive clichés of this music genre.
To sum up, this may not please everybody, but as the album has a little bit of each music genre, there will be a track that will persist in our musical collection, for sure.

Egocentric Youth is a trip to a prodigious electronic and egocentric world. Already released on Demo1 with a very peculiar remix name, DJ Matt Fatt Biggest Loser Mix, which is almost like a denial of the title of the track, now it is presented with a new and improved sound by IceSun.
The italian deejay accepted the challenge proposed by the American Hektor Thillet, who made available the accapella, and now we have the chance to listen to this fantastic electrohouse version. It has everything in it, rhythm, strong beats and great bass. However, like any other single release, it seems proper to have had a dub version, as the self absorbed lyrics might, for some, be considered too much.

Wilkommen in der Welt von Danny!
(Welcome to Danny's World)
Weltreise means a travel around the world and like Schiller, the German group of electronic music, in an album with the same name, Danny Ocean presents a great musical variety inside this genre. If the chillout is only present in Dschungel (Jungle), in which it seems that we are surrounded by trees in adventures like Hercules, the electro is the lion’s share and in English (for those who think that hear German is already too much!).
We set off with Arabien (Arabia), which introduces us the evolving path we are going to tread. Winternacht (Winter night) makes us feel the cold wind with the sound of piano provoking some strange sensations, as well as Brise (Breeze) and Wasser (Water), which contain several samples, involving bass and a soft beat. One should also point out the fantastic Umkehr (Reversion), which recalls us Herbert's remix for Hoping and fits well in a set in any alternative club, and M.E.M. with those great deep tones for 4 a.m. when there is a lot of black vodka in the stomach.
To sum up, if Genug means sufficiently and in this album the track tells us this should be played in high volume! it is what we are obliged to do in this travel around the electronic German World.
