It only gets better.......2002-01-07

Sage's rise to fame in the drum and bass scene has been incredibly fast. The reason is quite simple: she's that good. Now, this phenomenal DJ/DnB producer has released her first full length album. While it's impossible to capture the energy of Sage spinning live on a packed dance floor, this album does come close.

More details

The selection on the album is overall excellent. A number of 'Sage standards' are included in the mix, such as: 'Warp one', 'Koka', 'Just a vision' and 'Invid'. Any fan of Sage's will recognize these instantly. This album also includes some tracks fresh off the press, such as Klute's fusion of trance and DnB in 'Tranceformat'. This song alone is worth the price of the CD.

The mixing on the CD is flawless. This is no small feat considering that all mixes were recorded live (Dieselboy is probably the most famous DJ for this style of recording). As another reviewer has pointed out the mixing between Juju's 'Ancestros' and Dieselboy's 'Invid' and 'Decent' is nothing short of spectacular. The latter song is also available on Dieselboy's 6ixth Session but has a rightful place on this album since it's actually a remix by the Punckateck crew, which Sage is a member of. It's a testament to the skillful mixing on this CD that it includes a good variety of drum and bass tracks and manages to keep it all together in perfect harmony (compare 'Bombjack' with 'Tranceformat').

Bottom line(s)

If you're in the hardstep/techstep crew you'll definitely like this album. If you like Dieselboy or DJ Dara you will love this album. And if you don't like it the first time you listen, listen again - it only gets better!

Damn this girl gots skills.......2001-11-27

This girl has got mad skills on the tables. She makes most D&B DJs tremble at her feet. If you like drum and bass on a vocal tip, this is the CD for you. The track selection is awesome and I like how she throws in a Dieselboy track in her mix. Her style is west coast jungle, like Hive and UFO!

cute package, but contents drone.......2003-12-15

i thought this cd would be excellent, like those i have heard from other outstanding NYC djs like Dara or Reid Speed. unfortunately, it is not- in my opinion. the tracks selected are boring - played all together the way she does it. maybe each one alone might be tolerable, if juxtaposed with some more complex rhythms or some melody, vocals, anything! but it seems like one long boring clanking track all the way through. she attempts variation with track 2 but goes nowhere with it. i was extremely disapointed. no real melody or variation here, just unoriginal, unspirited dark middle of the road D&B.

The girl is simply amazing........2003-12-07

This mix is great. Starts out incredibly mellow, almost an ambient track, then builds up and hits full force. It continues to swell and ebb the length of the disc. She has a good feel for her music, and places the tracks well. If you want an intro to some of the more technical dnb, pick this up you'll enjoy it; if you already know what you like, the track listings speak for themselves. Sessions 2 is on my heavy rotation list of cd's. And, she's pleasing on the eyes to boot!

True to the Dance Floor.......2003-01-14

I've heard those other mix CDs: Reid Speed, Dieselboy, DB, Sage, etc. They are good. But this one is better. On Stateside Sessions 2, the song selections and mixing stay true to the dance floor. This is Drum and Bass just the way I like it. It reminds me of a late night out in NYC. I can definitely tell that Empress came out of that NYC junglist culture. Techy, tribal, fast.

You'll notice that the really BAD reviews below came from users who live in NYC. They probably have other reasons for disliking her, such as being competing NYC DJs, and one guy really doesn't give any details at all, as if all he wanted to do was lower her score maliciously. He didn't back up his bad review with any reasoning. My suspicion is that they have something personal against her (almost everyone in NYC has beef with one another) which has nothing to do with the quality of this CD.

Empress has so many great songs on this CD, including one by Juju and another from Phunkatech Communications. Breakbeatscience Recordings is also represented right up front. This is US Drum and Bass at its finest, with the entire country represented. This is the ONLY music that can get me on the dancefloor, so it has my full recommendation.

Definitely not the WORST D'n'B artist around!.......2002-09-14

There are many fine drum and bass artists in the world and no matter what someone tells you or a review tells you about Empress, she is awesome at what she does, though it is out of the ordinary. Empress's style is a bit on the tweeked side of drum and bass, which is not for the majority of jungle fans. She throws down a great little mix here for everyone to enjoy, though I am sure this mix is not the best I have ever heard from her. If you like female drum and bass, you should also look for Sage, Reid Speed, Miss K, and Dazee to quench your rinsing thirst.

Don't bother.......2002-09-09

This cd is not that great. Don't waste your money.

Effortless virtuosity, outstanding group performance........2002-01-02

Stateside
This album of standards from the trio of Joe, bassist Bob Magnusson and drummer Jim Plank, is magnificent. The album swings with effortless precision and Joe's restrained and innovative solos reveal a remarkable sense of logic, while leading in unexpected and fascinating directions. There is a hint of chorus in his tone.

This is an extraordinary group - one feels that there is a telepathic level of communication between these world-class players, especially considering that the performances were unrehersed and mostly first takes.

BEAUTIFUL.......2001-06-07

If you only listen to one guitar player in your lifetime,make it Joe Diorio.On any and all of his recordings Joe's inspired playing reveals life's beauty. Be sure to catch him live if you can.You'll never forget it.

Stateside.......2001-01-04

This CD is great! It's not the typical "Smooth Jazz" CD. It is a fabulous mix of Amercian standards, exquisitely played by Master musicans with world renoun reputations! Each tune is unique and expertly brought to life by soulful inspiration only experience can provide. These truly fantastic artists do more than just play standards, they cut a groove that has yet to be demonstrated by others. Stateside is one Jazz CD you must have! Every listening experience brings vibrant energy to the table and it's a keeper in the CD player for both the home and car!

Stateside.......2001-01-04

This is one of my favorite Jazz CDs. I can listen to it over and over again. It just keeps on getting better and better each time I hear it!

Must have for any jazz aficionado.......2000-12-13

I love this CD. It is melodic, interesting, and yet not smooth jazz. This is the real stuff in my opinion. Each song tells a story to me without getting overly complex. The solos lead me along without loosing me. This would be a great album for any smooth jazz fan looking to explore the more classic style of jazz. It is true to its artform.
