5.0 out of 5 stars A largely unrecognised classic, 23 April 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Broadcasting from Home (Audio CD)
Broadcasting form Home is probably one of the easier Penguin Cafe Orchestra titles and makes an excellent introduction to this genre. Many will recognise several of the tracks as they have been regularly used as backing or background music to TV programmes. Let this take nothing away from Broadcasting from Home though, if you like your music a little off-beat, creative yet involving - you really should try this!

5.0 out of 5 stars It's brilliant, but nobody knows what it is!, 30 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Broadcasting from Home (Audio CD)
Most people have never heard of the PCO because it defies categorisation. The music is a mix of easy to listen to compositions by Simon Jeffes et al and could, if one had to, be compared to work by Phillip Glass or Mathilde Santing. If you enjoy chilled out, easy listening music, then try this CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 8 Mar 2007
This review is from: Broadcasting from Home (Audio CD)
Need to relax - then sit back and press play with this music. it is relatively minimalist but not quite. the harmonies and melodies work well and some even tell a story. and its always fun trying to work out how they came up with the titles for the tunes!

4.0 out of 5 stars A PCO-novice? Start here!
This is the place to start with the music of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra. It's hard to describe where the music is about; its minimal music with built-in humour and melodies. Read more
Published 11 months ago by Yovra

5.0 out of 5 stars Off-beat excellence
This is certainly the most accessible of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra's output. The music is melodic, rhythmic and repetitive, but not in the minimalist school. Read more
