Now signed to Various Artists’s Sparrow Records, the title track from second album “Mixes” leads Various Artists’s back-to-school campaign. sixteen years ago, Various Artists briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Uskudar (Trumpet Solo)”. On the Andorra charts, superstar Various Artists’s career stalled before it left the starting gate. Various Artists is one of my favourite bands of all time.
Uskudar (Trumpet Solo) (3:27) a good melody. I like Sundream - Forever Waiting because it’s extremely catchy and has awesome drumming. If you are a Various Artists fan, you will love Sultana (Kewan Solo). Still going through Mixes and coming to appreciate Sehzade (Rhythm Solo) more and more with every listen. Samb Adagio (Cosmic Gate Mix) is absolutely incredible. Samb Adagio (Club Version) - This one is what it is: a powerful, primal invitation to love. This track makes my mind whirl and vibrate with flowing energy. Only one song from Mixes named Safri Duo - Baya Baya really got me. Played A Live (Spanish Fly Mix) which is my favorite is a truly Various Artists sounding song. In Played A Live (Dk Tandu Mix you won’t find any flashy solos. Played A Live (Club Version) is such a perfect and optimistic song that things can get just better. Nirvana (Rhythm Solo) is almost impossible to review. Nick Sentience - Bongo Song is excellent song though, very addictive. This track is a fabulous selection of easy listening, suitable for any age, taste or occasion. Charming song, great melody. Various Artists has created something that grabs you by the heart and gets you moving. Put Legendary (House Mix) into car stereo for your highway driving When listening to Huzun (Clarnet Solo), it gives me such an energy rush it’s unbelievable. Some call Habbeza (Trance Mix) from Mixes as a quiet invitation of an artist to sit and listen. Fudunkary (Trance Mix) - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. Firtina (Rhythm Solo) defines beauty, yet is as unforgiving as an astringent stone. Fake Divine - Egyptian Reggae is perhaps one of the best tracks of the past decade. Once Dub - The Buka (Dub Mix) gets in your head, it will NEVER leave. Dub - The Buka (Club Mix) has to be one of the most beautiful tracks on the entire album. Cj Stone - Rising Star is a good listen every once in a while. Carlos - The Silmarillia one is one of the better boring ones. Barcode Brothers - Flute is the most memorable and excellent. Balkan Dreams (Keman Solo) is another strong production from Various Artists. Ayla - For The Love Of A Prncess is one of the coolest songs Various Artists has ever recorded. Authentic Style (Hip-Hop Mix) - is a breath or fresh air compared to many previous songs of Various Artists. Anatolian Deluxe (Ethinc Mix) is possibly the best song Various Artists has come up. The sound in Alphaville - Dance With Me is really warm and Various Artists’s signature voice is still very much present.
