The End of a Great Band.......2006-11-15

Until recently there were only two bands whose CDs I would buy the day they were released without a second thought: Deep Forest and Baka Beyond. The list has shortened now to Baka Beyond. Music Detected is such a huge disapointment that I suspect it was a misdirected effort to win the American audience. I hope Deep Forest was holding it's communal nose while recording this awful mess. And let's all hope they go back to the music they love and ignor the bad marketing advice they seem to be getting.

Ok but not Great.......2006-04-27

Music Detected does have a few great songs in an otherwise mediocre release. There isn't much continuity or fluidity from track to track, it just seems all slapped together. This creates a flow which is not very smooth but rather a rough ride on high waves.

There are a couple of gems hidden in the shuffle including "Yuki's Song" and the simple & short but brilliant "In the Evening". Download these 2 tracks and skip the CD. Better yet buy Blank & Jone's "Relax" 1 or 2 CD's, Conjure One's "Extraordinary Ways" or any of the Digital Moodz releases.

Great Album.......2006-04-14

This album introduced me to Deep Forest. I come from listening to trance, techno, and house, so this was a nice combo of world and electronic. Two great and often spiritual types of music combined to one. There seems to be a message of the effect of technology on human nature.

My favorite tracks are "Computer Machine", "Deep Blue Sea", and "Endangered Species".

"Computer Machine" feels a little more soulful and urban than usual. One of the reasons I enjoy thisis because for some reason I enjoy the sound of highly compressed voice.

"Deep Blue Sea" is nice because it's very smooth and makes me feel happy and free during a warm summer day.

"Endangered Species" is cool because it feels like rock, house, folk music mixed into one.

I recommend this album to anyone who enjoys house, trance, or world/folk.

And that's all I have to say about that.

Not the same old folk music.......2005-12-17

Some the reviews seem more to punish Deep Forest for the drastic change of musical course from the folk music found in the first three studio albums. This is hard rock, almost metal, and it's very good (not classic 5 but definitely keeper 4).

Awful Music Detected.......2005-09-10

I am a big Deep Forest fan and I tried to like this horrible cd. I gave it at least 10 full listens and finally gave up and sold it to a used cd shop for a few dollars. It was quite unpleasant to listen to. The first three cds are very enjoyable and the live cd puts it all together, but Music Detected was simply disgusting. I would give it a NO STARS rating if that was an option.

Average customer rating: Absolutely phenomenal! I'm almost speechless!

Absolutely phenomenal! I'm almost speechless!.......2004-06-17

I had wondered what had gone on with Deep Forest following their 1998 third album "Comparsa" which I thought was uneven and their "Made In Japan" album as I had heard no news of them until when out of the blue came their 2002 comeback album entitled "Music Detected" which by the cover alone, I knew would be a major change in their sound but even then, I would never have guessed the culture shock that this newest album of theirs would bring but let me tell you, this album is awesome! In fact it ties with "Boheme" as their best album to date and marks a whole new chapter in Deep Forest's history. If you are familiar with the traditional New Age sound that defined a lot of their first three albums of theirs, then you will find it a great idea to adjust to a radically different sound because "Music Detected" is radically different from any of their older material and has almost none of the New Age genre sounds of old. The New Age sound is replaced with a heavily explosive techno dance sound along with rock, pop and even some occasional alternative rock elements in some places and this could almost have made a dent on the rock or techno charts. To me I think this album is the most radical change of sound that I've heard a New Age artist make since Enigma did with "Cross of Changes" over a decade ago.

This album shifts away from the Western Hemisphere from the Carribean sounds of "Comparsa" and Eastern Europe on "Behome" and Africa on their debut and heads to the Far East to Indonesia, Japan, China and India as this album has a far more Asian color to it and lots of exotic vocals from this region of the continent meshed perfectly with the crazy techno sounds that dominate this album. In all honesty, while this CD is a radical departure from their 1990s era albums, "Music Detected" offers styles for almost everyone to enjoy. What's also interesting too is that this album also have more live sounding drums as opposed to drum machines or the like. For the weird parts of this album, "India" is probably one of the most bizarre tracks on this album starting with Sitar strings and finally blasting into full-fledged rock N Roll before a strange Eastern Indian amplified vocal comes in giving the song a really strange but highly appealing Asian sound. "In The Evening" is another Eastern Indian Sitar influenced instrumental that is unfortunately really short and could've been longer to create a spectacular track but for what it is "In The Evening" is a good and eerie reprise interlude track.

Most of this CD though is strongle techno electronic rock music. "Computer Machine" is an awesome groove that starts with an eerie intro and robotic voice effects before it becomes a danceable mix of techno, pop, dance, and even some jazz elements that would almost make this song feel like café dance music for the distant future. "Soul Elevator" is another bizarre track that incorporates Alternative rock and electronic to create a really amazing track like nothing DF have ever done before. "Endangered Species" to me is the most explosive track on this album. It starts with ominous electronic melodic effects and echoing voice effects, a pulsating techno beat comes in and the song finally becomes a highly energetic intense, and dramatic techno dance track for the dance clubs! The live drum beats are fast and energetic. The Galleon remix has a harsher more techno-beat as opposed to live drums and has a different rhythm but both versions are incredibly awesome. "Beauty In Your Eyes" is almost purely techno rock but has really amazing vocal effects and a fast techno-beat for the dance floors.

The best songs however in my opinion are the two mid-tempo ballads "Yuki Song" and "Deep Blue Sea". "Yuki Song" starts with a haunting New Age ambient intro and becomes a dramatic power ballad like song with incredible vocals by Beverly Jo Scott and has amazing Asian flutes to give the song a slightly melancholy sound to it. This song is amazing and is one of the highlights. The best song however is the twosome track duo "Far East" and "Deep Blue Sea". "Far East" is a hauntingly beautiful interlude with a haunting New Age sound and exotic instruments. The track is only a minute long but brilliantly merges into the best song on this entire album "Deep Blue Sea". Featuring the seductive vocals of Indonesian singer Anggun, this song is an incredible song that mixes pop, rock, world and some New Age and to add Anggun as a guest vocalist makes this already incredible song even more so and this song has a lot of the great sounds of her 1998 masterpiece "Snow On The Sahara" which I strongly recommend alongside "Music Detected". Any other songs that I haven't pointed out on this album are must listens as well but the ones I did mention are among the best songs that they've ever done.

As much as I may be nostalgic for sounds like "Nightbird" or another "Sweet Lullaby", I am glad that they didn't make a "Deep Forest part II" nor something in the vein of that. Making "Music Detected" was a smart move and showcased one of the greatest artistic risks I've heard since U2's "Achtung Baby" from the early 1990s. "Music Detected" finds Deep Forest finding a fresh new sound and stepping into a whole new arena with incredible results and I strongly recommend that you purchase. Unlike a lot of people who needed time for this CD to grow on them, I loved this album the first time I bought it and I think it's their best album alongside "Boheme". Some may find themselves overwhelmed by the loudness of this CD but if you listen closely, even they will find that Deep Forest have lost none of their spirit and I look forward to they may bring next on their next outing whenever that comes out. God only knows how awesome this album would sound if a live CD of these songs were released someday. Highly Recommended CD.

A very welcome evolution for Deep Forest.......2002-06-25

I have yet to hear Pacifique, but after Comparsa, it seemed Deep Forest had abandoned their electronica sound for a more ethnic cultural sound. With Music Detected, they have come full circle. The music is very electronic. In addition, the lyrics (yes, lyrics) are in English with the traditional chants serving as a harmony in the background. The new sound is amazing. The first single, "Endangered Species" is probably one of the best singles Deep Forest has had. Another great track is "Deep Blue Sea" which features Anggun's sultry vocals. While this album strays from the traditional Deep Forest sound, it is the natural evolution for these two artists. Definitely a welcome surprise!

A Blazing Original.......2002-06-23

No wasting words here. This album is profound and deeply moving. The first four tracks are uneven. The first is exceptional, the other three are just good. But from track 5 on this is a masterpiece album. I bought it on a whim in China and can't stop listening to it. Buy it...you won't be sorry.

Nothing World Shattering.......2002-06-24

After listening to their previous albums, I found MUSIC.DETECTED_ (as it is written on the album cover) to be somewhat of a disappointment. While it contains some really good songs - I especially liked the remix of "Endangered Species", "Deep Blue Sea", and "Will You Be Ready" - I felt that the World sound I was familiar with with Deep Forest was hard to detect. Artists have their freedom, of course, so I'll give them three stars for a competent album, but this is nothing world shattering.

The biggest plus of the album that on "Will You Be Ready" Chitose Hajime is one of the vocalists, and her voice is absolutely sublime. As they are saying here in Japan, hers is a "voice that comes around only once in a hundred years."

Probably the biggest points against this album, however, were the quality of lyrics. Though "Endangered Species" and "Dignity" weren't so bad, many of the words need to be rewritten or resampled - I especially disliked "Computer Machine", and "Elemental". "Beauty in Your Eyes" and "Yuki Song" were also weak in this regard. (As for understanding the latter, perhaps knowing that "yuki" means snow in Japanese, helped, but still.)

Overall, not a BAD buy. But then, not really a GOOD one, either.
