4 out of 5 stars 'Feel the bass in your body' - and boy, do you........2004-08-30

The former bassist for David Bowie, Lou Reed and Ngegocello wants you to 'feel the bass in your body' - and boy, do you: WEST NILE FUNK is modern African-rooted drum and bass at its hardest - joined by Ghanian musicians and an African tinge which remains more European Afro-funk than actual African.
 This is the band's second full-length release and is meant for modern world dance floors - and for people who think most world funk is too light on the beat or too soft on African.
 It would be even more fitting to view this band live, when dancers are added - but as WEST NILE FUNK is only a cd, take it on the tempo alone: it takes the fast dancing of general African music, erases the hiphop elements which don't fit, and turns up the amp and volume a notch.
 WEST NILE FUNK is everything west of the Nile, from West Africa to Caribbean influences: it's not as beefed-up bass as modern drum n bass listeners are used to, but it makes up for the tone down in a complexity most drum and bass dance collections lack.
Not recommended for sit-down listening: WEST NILE FUNK is dance floor beat at its best.
