Product Description
From Amazon.com
Everything But the Girl's Ben Watt and DJ partner Jay Hannan return with more of the deep house they mixed to dazzling effect on the first Lazy Dog disc. Modeled after the program from their weekly residence at London's Lazy Dog social club, the double-disc Lazy Dog 2 finds the duo energized and dripping with deep house attitude. The duo's interpretations, which are more svelte, elegant, and modern than classic house, include ubiquitous handclaps and cymbal splashes met with salsa keyboard riffs, squawking saxophones, steaming organs, and sped-up vocals (on Peal Orchestra's "No Win Situation" the singer sounds like a prepubescent Michael Jackson). Both DJs confirm their tastes here; Watt indulges in lustrous mixes of vocal stars like Lucy Pearl, Sade, and Sunshine Anderson, while Hannan gives props to movers like Benjamin Diamond, Andy Caldwell (the man behind Sounds of Om, Vol. 2), and DJ Sonic (though he also sneaks in '80s pop star Kim English). The tracks pile-drive along in party mode, never skipping a beat but offering plenty of variation in style, making for a worthy addition to the Lazy Dog canon. --Ken Micallef
Chronique amazon.fr
Les aventures de Ben Watt, moitié d'Everything But The Girl, et de son complice Jay Hanam continuent avec le deuxième volume des compilations de leur célèbre soirée Lazy Dog. Depuis quatre ans maintenant, les deux résidents du Notting Hill Arts Club ont établi un des rendez-vous dominicaux les plus courus de l'Ouest londonien. On retrouve donc l'ambiance de cette grand-messe deep-house sur cette double compilation de bonne facture où l'on regrette cependant que le CD1 ne se distingue pas un peu plus du 2. Même si Lazy Dog ne rivalise pas avec Body and Soul, ce mix plaira à tous ceux qui continuent d'apprécier des sets de deep-house au kilomètre. -- Luc Demont

Best Deep House Ever,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lazy Dog II (Audio CD)
Without exception, Lazy Dog 2 is the best deep house compilation I have ever heard. Jay Hannan and Ben Watt strike a perfect balance between vocal house and traditional instrumental. Both Jay and Ben have matured since Lazy Dog 1, and the crossover mixes are as fluid as can be. The only other compilation that even comes close to LD2 is DJ Maze's Funky Deep House.

lazy dog vol .1 and 2,
By andrea finotti (uk) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lazy Dog II (Audio CD)
This 2 house compilations are absolutely a dream.....Never have i come across to such a high quality dance mix packed with outstanding tracks blended in skilfully in a variety of funky,latin and deep house charged with relentless energy.The result of Jay Hannan's and Ben Watt's effort is electrifying....... Unlike other compilations you have to work hard to find a track you DON'T like or any fault at all.This is shear quality and talent,both of every each artist and the DJs involved in the project.To be listen to for the next 20 years or so......an icon and a legend of dance music,a beacon,a light-house(so to speak),and "THE" standard and reference point for any house/dance complation.Best served at Notting Hill Art Club/London or in a hammock on a tropical beach under the full moon and the stars..........PURE BLISS.......

cheesy,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lazy Dog II (Audio CD)
This is definitely not a first-rate release. Jay Hannan's set is far superior, as with the first in the series. The mixes are just rather bland and the track selection is boring. Maybe people who don't know much about good house we'll like it. And the remix of "In The Music" - butchers the song! NOOOOOO! I much prefer the original mix appearing on Ei Bi Si 2 mixed by Barcelona's Eric Entrena and DJ Puku. Sorry, I'm just not feelin' this release. If you like this style of house, check out Casamba Clubbing mixed by Rafa Navarro (rare), Miguel Migs' Nude Tempo One, Jeno's Emotion Electrique (rare), or the 1st Lazy Dog.
