4 out of 5 stars would not want to live without some Bugge .......2007-01-05

I heard Bugge first on some lounge compilations. Pretty awesome groove with piano sound. Yellow and Try (ft. Sidsel Endresen) especially. So I purchased Moving and Sharing and found them surprising. I don't really like jazz and there is a lot of improvisational play on these CD's. Plus three great tracks: Arena, South, and Try, you'll have to get from other sources.

Because I think Bugge is special, but wasn't blown away by these CD's, I waited a while to do a review.

Perhaps like some Miles Davis music that I have, not all of Bugge Wesseltoft's music is great on first listen. Yellow, for example, having only heard the edited version, seemed just too improvisational in parts, but now is just awesome. More creatively fresh. Something you want to listen too even after many, many plays.

It's a hard review for me to do. Some songs I just can't listen too. But the stuff I do like, I love. Toss me onto a deserted island with Bugge, Skalpal, and some Miles Davis and it's all my ears need.

5 out of 5 stars Bugge on down.......2006-10-02

When I experienced the half-man, half-machine phenomenon that is the bugg, I was transfixed. I mean, I had not up until that point considering throwing wisdom to the wind and joining a sect. But the Bugge/Bouge/Boug/Boog/Boge/or if you are English, Boo-Gee (as in, gee up pony)(with possible other pronounciations of which I am not even aware), represented a possible messiah. The problem was what to call the master. I mean, is he Boogie (as in, on down)? Bu-ge, Boo-hee? Boggy? Or Bogie? (as in the famous actor, the stuff in your nose or a golfing success?). Answers on a postcard please

Possibly the buggeman's greatest disc, the Buggmeister's usual mesmerising blend of new jazz and elecrifying electronica is pumped up a notch here, and amply demonstrates his leadership credentials. The Bugge cult can only keep on growing until it rivals Bikram in its worldwide reach. Worship at the master's feet. And do not miss a chance to see Bugge live, as his recordings, excellent though they are, do not do the man justice and do not even come close to capturing the energy of his live concerts

5 out of 5 stars Modern, Chill-Out Jazz at its Finest!.......2004-11-13

If you've always loved lounge music or classic jazz, with a beat, this is it! This cd will not disappoint you.

Start with track 3 and 4 - the two catchiest tunes - and then learn to love the rest of the cd. The other 4 tracks will be worth your time and will catch you when you least expect it.

This is the cd for me when driving in my car either from the beach or in the evening from work.

Beyond words. Fantastic!

4 out of 5 stars Excellent and inspired!.......2003-09-28

OK - my 5-star reviews are for things like the Beatles White Album and Miles Davis' Kind Of Blue - you get what I mean.

That being said, this is an excellent album that will warrant repeated listening. What to say:

1) Very musical - mellow, but with a direction and a message. Great interplay by the players give it the true dialogue of jazz music being played live. This is where many of the pretenders in this genre lose it and Bugge and crew really excel. It's Nu Jazz that really doesn't forget the "jazz", and the playing is excellent. Bugge's playing in particular is very sensitive and this disc will transport you to a land of fantasy and introspection.

2) Don't let the house/dance/trip hop-style beats throw you *or* fool you. This album really sits in it's own place on the spectrum and maybe only overuses the beat factor a little bit... the only (small) critique I have. I may have changed the song sequence had I programmed it, but then again, maybe not. The tune-to-tune programming flow is good, but not outstanding. It's probably just the DJ in me talking.

3) The packaging is beautiful. One of my favorites in a collection of 10,000 plus!

So - BRAVO Bugge! Keep it coming. And check out the Jazzland Recordings website - I think we're only seeing the tip of the iceberg (no pun intended) here!!

5 out of 5 stars this is unbelievable..............2003-04-23

I saw bugge the first time on the north sea in '98 I think. He already made a big impression there in an almost empty dakterras.. Nevertheless every year he returned on the north sea and every year the crowd was bigger. No wonder because moving is probably one of the albums which will be kept in stores for the next 100 years. The start of the first song is very delicate, but it gets more funkier by the minute... Play it in your car, full volume and it will rock your head off.. This is to me the best album of modern jazz.. Buy this CD, you won't regret it.

I guess the upcoming live CD will be even better...
