I loved Deep Forest since their first album in the early 90's.  They are definitely a strong vibe and I can see many peeps liking or disliking them.

don’t see very many ratings charts shaped like that

Because it's an Average instead of a Mean. The ones drag down the average; but if you look at the highest vote (7), it's more respectable.

Uhhhh... I'm pretty sure average and mean are the same thing. Do you mean average vs. median?

Interesting song. You definitely won’t hear this on any other station.

Good night! How does this have an average rating of 5.4? This plus a strong cup of decaf coffee and I'm finally ready to start the day.

Yes! Upbeat world/Indian music. Love when RP takes us to different music in the world. This is a good example of why I listen.


Call me ignorant (in this case I cetainly am), but how is this piece from a French group Indian? I can tell that it isn't in Ionian or Aeolian modes, but is there something specifically Indian about this piece of music?

and yes, I know that they released an album of Indian fusion music with Rahul Sharma in 2013 - but this is not from that album

Vocals - bleucch. Hammered dulcimer - great. Fairly good all in, typically quirky RP fare

No emotion in it, just technique and skill. Somehow sterile.

Almost lovely, but too manic and thus irritating. I'm not surprised it has such low ratings.
Posted 3 years ago by TonyApuzzo    [ Reply ]
I really Like this. I used to listen to a lot of Hearts of Space back in the day then I got turned onto RP back in 2006 or so. I still have some HofS cd's but this is the very reason I love RP.  Many thanks Bill and Rebecca!  I swear I heard a hammer dulcimer in there somewhere...

Reminds me a bit of Juno Reactor. I do like some Psytrance style.
Definetly polarizing opinions on this track it seems. Gets an 8 from me.

This is definitely not a favorite track of mine, but I still like this CD nonetheless.

This sounds very similar to the background music which is played in some levels of Unreal Tournament 2004...

If this is what they serve up at Cafe Europa, I'll stick to the diners in the States.

Sounds both Israeli and Indian, at the same time. Vocals have that Indian (Eastern as well as Native American) sound. Very different. Not bad.

Pretty interesting blend of cross-cultural sounds....and I dig the bass rush that sounds like a braying bull
Posted 20 years ago by pdhski    [ Reply ]
Taken out of the context of the album, this song sounds a little out of place here. If you listen to the whole thing, the songs blend nicely together.
Posted 20 years ago by AliGator    [ Reply ]
I really enjoy this CD. Other than this song, I'd also recommend "Freedom Cry" or Bulgarian Melody". Perhaps they would get higher ratings on RP.

.............................. :iamwith: .............................. Funny.. I went on a visit to many peoples minds and all I got was crabs (bichy people that can't seem to open their ears and minds for a few moments) Now... if you'd said.. you have their cd and in small doses its ok, or perhaps said the quality overall is just above mildly irritating... then I'd have no problem with bitches and gripes.. *I* own two albums they produced and think for their time they were transitional and melded a bit of two different musical styles.. I did find that after repeated listens the music didn't seem to stand up well, but after some time has passed (probably in the range of 5 to 8 years) I find it suits the musical mix here on Radioparadise quite well, and was welcomed.. but then again like holes, that's my opinion, and I've got both.

uh...errr....ummm....well I'm tempted not to identify myself as something of a Deep Forest fan with this number playing. I've heretofor been spared(or perhaps,on second thought this is why I didn't buy one of their CDs). Quite embarrassingly bad. Bill's taste generally seems to screen out the worst examples of eclectic excess. Wonder what happened here.
