Dance to it, vibe to it, it's great for every mood you're in (almost...) absolutely terrific & cool sounding!"

Product Description
Music quenches the soul. It sets the mood. It brings people together. It soothes you when you’re alone. The mood of "New Sound Theory" is new style lounge with elements of deephouse, downtempo, nu jazz, and neo soul. The CD’s groove takes a few turns, some energizing, some more relaxed… matching the course of any given day. This sophisticated collection is the perfect soundtrack for your lifestyle.

New South Theory Vol. One.......2005-03-15

After wearing out my first volume of New Sound Theory, I came back to see if there was a second volume (which i found that there is both V2 and V3!) and I decided I should take the time to review the first in this series. Just know that since I purchased this CD 6 months ago it hasn't left my car CD player. I spend the majority of my time driving for my work and I probably listen to it once a day. I've lived with a lot of compilation CD's and if you want variety you will find it here. It's a lucious, soothing and uplifting group of tracks that transition nicely from one to the next. Several tracks have vocals, both male and female vocalists appear although most of the tracks are instrumental. I recommend this CD to anyone who enjoys what I call smooth grooves. Hopefully Volumes 2 and 3 will be as impressive. Can't wait to find out for myself. --

P-U: What a stinker!.......2005-03-02

I got this based on one of the reviews for New Sound Theory, Vol. 2. My mistake. This is NOTHING like The New Latinaires and NOTHING like Future Sounds of Jazz. Except for the first song, which isn't too bad, the rest of it has the same, annoying, mid-tempo disco beat behind every single song. That beat is so repetitive and annoying it drove me up a friggin wall yesterday when I was playing it in the background--if it was vinyl, I would've thrown it against the nearest wall. BE WARNED! No imagination in these excuses for tunes.

What a neat concept!.......2003-12-16

The nice thing about a compilation album is that you're pretty much sure to find some songs that suit your taste. I don't know all of these artists but I know what I like.

Very well done!
