Fantastic dance music! Submitted on: 2009-06-21 |

| An excellent CD. Good energy, fun songs, excellent production. The colorful sleeve design gives a hint of the fun inside. One of my favorites tracks is Juggy D's: Akheer. Who knew he was capable of such beautiful classic sound. His tough street persona belies this wonderful melodic performance and this is just one of many other introductions to the voices and sounds of Bhangra. Well worth the investment! |

| The music was great. I used the last track for the children to dance to at school. I bought it thinking there would be some details to some bhangra steps but there wasn't. |

Bhangra Lives. Submitted on: 2007-12-12 |

| I teach water aerobics at 6 am in the morning. My class consists of warmup and stretching exercises - intense cardio... and then as a treat some Bhangra music (followed by deep water exercises - cool-down and stretching exercises - ending with pranayama - breathing exercises). The women love Bhangra. We do some free style dancing to Bhangra - the greatest pick up at 630 AM. What a way to start your day. We dance to some selections from this CD... and women have listened to some of the songs on youtube. The favorites are Rail Gotti and Capt Bhangra - more bhangra, please. |

Hi! Hi! HI! Submitted on: 2006-10-03 |

| this is the music to accompany a dance craze that is going to the big urban centers in the USA right now after having been a euro- phenom. I first heard about it when I was doing a websearch on music of India, then ordered the CD. My daughter hwo lives in DC was surprised to hear that I had gotten this, and she had just been to a Bhangra event at a a club there. The tracks are danceable and really really fun. some of it has a hip hop beat but the harmonies and melodies are so wonderfully fresh that you will find yourself humming along after on ly a listen or two.... |

great intro to bhangra Submitted on: 2006-06-14 |

| being born in the states to bengali parents, there isnt as much popular music thats influenced by indian culture (bad rap looping aside). mostly, we (as in first generation americans) usually have to turn to british stuff for that crossover. bhangra is, for us, what rock en español or reggetón is for latinos.... its dancable and familiar. this cd, i think, has some awesome tracks on it... there is a whole spectrum of bhangra types- from the reggae-inspired to the more 'hip-hop' flavored stuff to the calm, religious 'akheer' (which is totally my favorite). you dont have to understand punjabi to enjoy it (i mean, i dont and nor do most of my indian friends... but we connect with it even though bhangra is a regional punjabi phenomenon... then again, reggetón is supposedly a puerto rican/caribeño thing and even argentinians and spaniards can dig it). anyway, the point is this cd has a good collection of songs that is very cool regardless of your background. neat songs, a lot of indian backgrounds (with traditional instruments like the veena and harmonuim) and pulsing dhol/syth rhythms. it makes you want to get up and dance, which is exactly what bhangra is for! |
