5.0 out of 5 stars
At the forefront of the global beats!, 26 Nov 2006
A brilliant full-length statement from Mark De Clive-Lowe. An artist who's been making some big waves in the global underground for the past few years, including a range of singles and remixes, for Masters At Work, Verve, Impulse Records, and collaborating with a diverse range of artists as Lauryn Hill, Jody Watley, Omar, Sammy Figueroa, Pino Palladino, Lady Alma, Ed Motta and DJ Mitsu The Beats, to name a few...
The album is a swirling, cosmic set that effortlessly blends together beats, keys, and a bit of vocals, yet which manages to come off with a complexity that goes far beyond the sum of its parts. Mark recorded the album in London and Auckland, but there's a deeper soul here that almost feels like part of the best side of the Detroit 21st Century scene, especially on the album's excellent vocal numbers! Guest appearances include Bembe Segue, Abdul Shyllon, Capitol A, and Lain Gray and titles include "Traveling", "Quintessential", "Masina's World", "Slide", "State Of The Mental", "Sila's Theme", "Heaven", and "4 YV". A good purchase if you like Brokenbeat, Nu Jazz, Latin Rhythms, House!

price!!?!, 24 Nov 2004
I've got the Tide's Arising EP and from the sound of it the LP is going to be amazing. However, at its current price (27.99!!!) you're much better off ordering it from amazon.co.jp, even including shippping it'll be much less than this. Whilst you're at it, pick up a few other bits and pieces that amazon.co.uk doesn't have.
