Neutralize It- Review.......2002-03-22

The music on this album is incredible. Sean's writing is as great as ever, and his cover of Bob Marley's "3 Little Birds" is
very good. The album is a great showcase for a very talented artist. The mellow guitars and sweet vocals show how for not only he has progressed, but how far Hawaiian music has come.
This is a great kick back relax album. Highly recommended!

Product Description

There is no doubt that singer, musician, composer and producer Sean Na'auao has made his mark in Hawai'i's multi-faceted music industry, yet the talent and strength that comes neatly wrapped up in his new release "Ka 'Eha Ke Aloha," will take many of his longtime fans by surprise. This traditional Hawaiian album is set to hit the Hawai'i music scene with a bang, with the same local boy style and attitude as his chart-topping island music, but with the grace and forte that only a talented and cultured Hawaiian man can emanate. "Ka 'Eha Ke Aloha" proves once again that the resurgence of young talent paying tribute to Hawaiian culture, tradition and language, will continue to be embraced by young and old Hawaiian music enthusiasts alike.

Stylized - but nice.......2006-06-19

I learned of this CD and artist when looking for various versions of the song "I'll Never Love This Way Again." I was certain that the song had been recorded better than Whitney Houston's version. Man, was I right! Rather than Whitney's over-sung style, Sean respects the music with a relaxed arrangement. The harmonies all use the same vibrato, imparting a semi-boy-band sound. INLTWA is the only song in English. The other songs are all in Hawaiian so be prepared. Nothing wrong with it, just know in advance that this CD is primarily traditional Hawaiian music with a pop inflection.
Its all pretty. I'd call it classy ethnic pop.

Hawaiian Music for Everyone.......2003-10-21

This is not your typical Hawaiian music. This is a mix of upbeat music with a Hawaiian beat. Some of the songs you know the other you will come to enjoy. Fish and Poi is a fun song while Two Person Party is something everyone can relate to. If you like upbeat Hawaiian music and not the traditional stuff this is a must have.

Still Pounding by Na'Auao, et al.......2002-05-06

My daughter went to Hawaii and picked up this album. I just loved the music. Really upbeat, fun and just a delight to listen to. Just brightens up your day!! She has since misplaced the album and could not remember the name of the album. I have searched and searched and am so thrilled I finally found it!! If you enjoy the Island atmosphere and music, you will surely enjoy this.

Customer Reviews:

Traditional Hawaiian Music.......2004-03-29

Sean is a very talented artist. Unfortunately, his career is heading in a less than desirable direction--popular music rather than traditional. This album, Holomua, to my mind, points in the direction he should move. It is one of the most musical, nonfatiguing, original and listenable Hawaiian traditional music albums I have heard (and own). His voice is totally enjoyable, the arrangements and backgrounds are wonderful and well thought out. He also mixes in a little "modern" Hawaiian music, all of which blends well into the traditional approach, and which keeps the tracks from sounding monotonous. This is an album you'll want to listen to when you aren't trying to fall asleep; and it'll keep listeners of all ages (but primarily those above 40 or those who love traditional Hawaiian music) entertained. It's a pity I haven't been able to find another of his albums that is in this style. I recommend it highly; and I ask Sean, when do we get Volume 2? It's time to HOLO'MUA.

Customer Reviews:

Nice contrast.......2002-09-11

"Yellow Fever" is definitely a more accessible album, more directly linked to the mellow, hypnotic Nigerian highlife/juju pop style, while "Na Poi" is more of an experimental, difficult-listening album. It's interesting to hear the two different versions of the song "Na Poi," both extended Fela-style jams, but with radically different approaches... give you a pretty good sense of the kind of stylistic range these guys had. I agree that "Yellow Fever" is more fun, but hey... as long as they're gonna throw an extra album's worth of material on the same CD, I ain;t gonna complain. #8-)

Better than Jason's Review Suggests.......2000-07-02

This CD has all the rythmic subtlety of Fela's best recordings. Anything with Tony Allen's drumming deserves four stars!

Pretty good overall.......1999-12-21

Yellow Fever is very good and catchy, typically excellent Fela. Na Poi is one of my least favorite. It's ok, but nothing really reaches out and grabs you.
