Happy Buddha [Ayia Napa Music / ZYX]

All fans of decent Lounge / Downtempo music are recommended to check out the fresh "Happy Buddha" compilation put on the circuit via Ayia Napa Music / ZYX, containing a bunch of 23 tracks spread over 2 CD's and providing approximately 2 hours of listening pleasure. Having a look at the booklet one recognizes that all titles have been licensed from the Hamburg based imprint Lounge Records and its sister labels El Muto and Legere who are well appreciated for their high quality sounds since day dot - in terms of this compilation we're talking a period from 1998 to 2010, a twelve years range that's represented by artists like Rivera Rotation, Boca 45, Vincenzo & Rivera, Jettricks and many others. If these names sound familiar to any of you, you're very likely to enjoy this compilation - at home, on the beach, in your car or wherever there's need for some aural excitement.
