Pre-millenium Tension!!!,
By mondo (LA, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Zen (Audio CD)
This is one Krush's best albums. Though it's pretty difficult to say that when everyone of his albums has been a pretty solid release. He strikes a nice balance between the collaborations and the solos. Not all collabs are vocal. The inclusion of Japanese drummer Tunde Anyanyemi on "Sonic Traveller" is a nice touch. Song1 is great classic Krush. Returning collaborator Black Thought(Meiso) does a great job as always and this time drummer Questlove gets a turn on his own track respectively. N'Dea Davenport guests. A great collabration with Marie Daulne of Zap Mama has her flexing her Pygmy power with vocal acrobatics on "Danger of Love". The eerie closer preludes 9/11 which eventually informed his following release. Though the album appears to be darkly textured, hope ultimately lies at the core. Conscious music for the turn of the century. Global Hip-Hop for One World!!!

Atmospheric Beats & Hypnotic Minimalism included.....,
By fetish_2000 (U.K.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Zen (Audio CD)
Having immensely enjoyed 1999's largely instrumental "Kakusei" album, Dj Krush must have been listening when I was wondering what his music would sound like with vocal collaborations, as this album (bar 1 or 2 tracks), features vocalists throughout. Krush shows why he's the master of the minimalist ambient Breakbeat, because whether it's 'Jazz' ("With Grace" / with N'Dea Davenport), Ambient Psychedelia ("Duck Chase" / With DJ Disk), Leftfield Hip-Hop ("Vision of Art" / With Company Flow"), or Downbeat Soul/R&B (Danger of Love / With Zap Mama)....it's all so expertly sequenced, arranged & produced, that its feels as if he's always traded in these genres of music, with Krush laying down dense atmospheric breaks that encompass...Moody, brooding, Nocturnal, Chilled grooves, and come together so sublimely, that he's effectively the 'Dj Shadow' of the Ambient Breaks scene.

A dream from Japan,

This review is from: Zen (Audio CD)
Nippon trip-hop but not only. A real synphonia of music : sweet (Song 1, Sonic Traveler, With Grace) psychedelic (Endless Railway, Paradise Bird Theory) and the rest between the rap, funk, jazz. There is also a bonus track (the total songs are 13 and not 12) probably the less nice.D.J. Krush made a big risk with a miscellaneus of sounds (infact people could be disoriented by the changes from a track to another) but the final result is perfect. It's not a Cd to play single track, one you put on you have to finish it, it's like a classic synphonia! Only with all songs togheter you can undrstand the total CD. You can love it, dosen't mind with kind of music you are coming from...for sure you will love it..it's so sweet, so dark, so trip, so smart,..........so ZEN
