Review|Hed Kandi 60: Beach House

Category: Music
Genre: Dance & DJ
Artist: Various Artists

Although we have crappy weather here, it's summer in other parts of the world, it's that time of year for 'summer' themed releases, being bought by the Ministry in January didn't stop Hed Kandi from churning out compilations and this year's Beach House was something that I was looking forward to. I immediately placed it on my trusty miniSD and gave it a go on my Exec. I'm sure Kandi crazed fans will enjoy some of the house gems in there. Much to my surprise I felt that the compilation lacked the UMPHHH , that came with Beach House 04.05, maybe on my second and third pass of this album I will like it more. Something is definitely missing here the last 2 compilations I have listened to from Hed Kandi have left me dissatisfied. It might be my evolving taste in music though... so don't knock this album till you've given it a whirl on your player of choice.
