DJ Ravin takes the wheel behind Buddha Bar III, the namesake compilation from Paris's answer to Studio 54. Ravin forgoes the Dinner/Party division that Claude Challe opted for on previous installments of the series, and instead casts Dream versus Joy on this two-disc set. Dream, leaning on the traditional (syrupy Greek strings, Japanese bamboo flutes, Persian harmonists) and New Age Enigma/Deep Forest side of things (Oliver Shanti & Friends, Vangelis engineer Frederick Rousseau) is frankly too restless to be truly dreamy. The frenzied run through so many styles, seemingly solely for the sake of diversity alone, ultimately feels about as sincerely global as a mad dash through Disney's Epcot Center. The second CD in the set, Joy, pays a tad more attention to a general vibe, resulting in a much better overall effect. Rhythm rules the day here, from tabla-riffic entries by Mercury Prize winner Talvin Singh and fellow Outcastes Badmarsh & Shri to seven-drum troupe Kodo. And don't forget Ekova's Starlight in Daden. Nothing that features Deirdre Dubois's glorious voice can be all that bad. --Bob Michaels

Buy this just for "Joy". September 10, 2003

"Joy" (Disc 2), a bit more up tempo, is much more to my preference than "dream" (Disc 1). "Joy" is a great driving, working, or party mix. Bit of an indian / world music vibe with great loungey electronica beats.

This set was one of my favorite of all the Buddha Bar compilations. I found the songs on these CDs to be very intriguing. I highly recommend it!

Buy this CD and listen to it. In doing so you allow your mind to go on a journey. Start by imagining yourself reclining in a comfortable and lavish lounge in Paris... close your eyes, you will roam far and wide over Mediterranean soundscapes from places like Morocco, Andalucian Spain, Algeria. Enjoy the atmospheres it invites you to drink in. The disks may seem expensive, but the trip they offer requires no plane tickets... just the music.
Eastern-flavored worldbeat April 30, 2002
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is an Eastern-flavored set. The one exception might be the Gotan Project's "Triptico" that begins Disc 2, but it fits right in.I first listened to this CD during a three-hour drive back from Houston in the wee hours of Easter morning in horrendously stormy weather. The first disc, "Dream," didn't particularly live up to its title, though I enjoyed it anyway. The second disc, however, was a literal "Joy," with the music propelling me through the lightning and driving rain with a degree of appropriateness that will make it an enduring memory. It was as if the music were choreographed to the road and weather. If you are at all interested in worldbeat/dance hybrids, buy this and try your favorite highway cruise with Disc 2 playing. It's not bad just sitting home listening, either!
