AMG评了Buzzin' Fly公司首张大碟

It's easy to see the connection between Ben Watt's work in Everything But the Girl, his love of bossa nova, and the kind of house music he favors. All are warm, tasteful, and seductive. His inclination extends to his new house music label Buzzin' Fly Records. Watt presents a mix of selections form the label on Buzzin' Fly, Vol. 1. Reaching outside of the label's catalog here and there, Watt changes things from sunny and sparkling to cool and deep with his slowly evolving mix. His own track, "A Stronger Man," with vocals by Terence Trent d'Arby under his alternative name Sananda Maitreya, is the mix's highlight. Just like everything around it, the track is hypnotic and slick, but d'Arby's lyrics give the listener that something extra to latch onto. Same goes for Watt's remix of Low's "Tonight" — and Justin Martin's slowly melting "Sad Piano" takes third — but the rest of the disc is too subdued to separate. That's hardly a bad thing when you take into account how well the disc works as a whole, but newcomers to the less ambitious side of house might not be swayed on just one listen. For the house fan, Buzzin' Fly, Vol. 1, is like your favorite pair of jeans. Nobody ever comments on them, but they make you feel comfortable and better than usual. — David Jeffries

hehe,刚出就有了~~~特别推荐哦~~

很不错的一张碟，11首作品可谓首首主打
因为很多作品都曾经是Buzzin' Fly官方站的背景音乐

这些作品有些挺旧的了，比如A Strong Man、Dreaming of You，新作品就有A Sad Piano和Tonight（remixes from LOW's single“Tonight”），总之作为一间label的第一张作品，可谓交足功课

今日Ben作为DJ的事业发展已经不能与Lazy Dog时期同日而语
尽管Lazy Dog凭着Cherry Jam在UK非常成功，但Buzzin' Fly
这个名字已经是成功打入US市场，8月和9月Ben会和旗下DJs
在US tour，当然，除开US，tour地点还包括像toronto、sydney
等大城市，期望不久将来他也能来china

ps: james lavelle在9月有china tour，众派对动物get ready lar!:P

CuiBo，有空报道一下UK那边的club scene吧，有相片post上来图文并茂就最好不过了，hoho~~
