4.0 out of 5 stars 3.5 stars for sugary-sweet vocal house and disco, Nov 1 2002
This review is from: V3 Beach House (Audio CD)
What is it?
Deep, sugary-sweet vocal house on one disc, disco on the other, all in unmixed form for this, the third installment of increasingly-prolific label Hed Kandi's most popular series Beach House.

And?
Good concept and all, but where's the sand? Most of the material locks the Latin percussion away for romantic nighttime tunes (Miguel Migs "Brand new Day," Julius Papp "A Thousand Years") certainly not aimed for friendly loafing on an afternoon. That leaves Malena, DJ Chus, an aptly named Holder classic "Summer Daze," and the vibrant Ibadan mix of rain-on-my-parade queen Beth Orton's "Central Reservation" to carry the concept - tunes that have traveled everywhere for three years now.

But?
There's still some delectable cuts here. Ashley Beedle of X-press 2 fame irons out the jilting tempo of Bent's original "Always" for a piano-led anthem floating a beguiling old-record vocal. Which makes up for his cack "Lazy." Meanwhile Lazy Grace cover a song correctly, as the Bee Gees' "How Deep is Your Love" receives the dancing queen treatment to wondrous effect. Jon Cutler's relaxed "You Groove Me" has the hook you'll remember most when it's all done, while Octave One's "Blackwater" is indeed, the strings-techno uplifting jewel worthy of the 2002 buzz.

Like all the rest of Hed Kandi's releases, there's a handful of must-haves, some duds, and a large middle range of pleasant-enough goodies. Beach House may not meet its intended concept, but the music carries this through for a worthy release.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome..., Sep 29 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: V3 Beach House (Audio CD)
This is yet another must have Hed Kandi compilation! You can't find good soulful house on any other comp cd. A couple tracks that I guarantee you will have at deafening levels, are Kaskade's "It's You, It's Me," Solu's "Fade", Octave One's "Black Water," and Malena's "Con Migo." Other notable tracks are, "Summer Daze" by Nick Holder, "Brand New Day" by Miguel Migs and "How Deep is Your Love" by Lazy Grace. (Remake of Bee Gees song). If you're a house head, this album won't disappoint!

5.0 out of 5 stars Return to the Beach, Hed Kandi Style., Sep 2 2002
By 
This review is from: V3 Beach House (Audio CD)
"Beach House" is simply too good a compilation to be played only during the summer months at the beach. This collection of laid-back house is an excellent collection that can be played after dark, indoors, or to spice things up at a dinner party. We get warm grooves, soulful vocals, Latin and African influences, and mellowed-out beats. In other words, this ain't no "Totally Dance." Tracks of note on Disc 1 are "Believe" by Soldiers of Twilight, an impressive cover of the Bee Gees' "How Deep is Your Love" by Lazy Grace, and the favorite club staple "Lazy" by the David Byrne side project X-press 2. On Disc 2, Miguel Migs (known for his contribution to a couple of the Naked Music collections) shines in "Brand New Day" and the great closer "Black Water" by Octave One works pretty well. Note: this is NOT a mix CD. I thought the tracks would be blended in together like a DJ mix CD, but this is not the case. Still, it matters none to me. "Beach House" is a classy compilation that won't look out of place in your collection of dance music.
