Album Description
Tosca's second album 'Suzuki' (Studio K7) takes a lighter, airier approach to the trip-hop terrain that Opera explored. The spare, shimmering title track's delicate synth textures, minimal beats, mellow rhythms, and breathy vocal samples set the tone for the rest of the album's laid-back tracks. Though 'Orozco', 'Bass on the Boat,' and 'Ocean Beat' are more immediate variations on Tosca's relaxed sound, for the most part, 'Suzuki' offers a locked groove of hypnotic, deeply chilled-out epics. This CD has 12 tracks and is packaged in a digipak.

More moody musical fairytales from Richard Dorfmeister, this time with Rupert Huber under the guise of Tosca. Suzuki is--like his releases with Kruder and Dorfmeister--a sublime work that manipulates emotions through sound. Soft and sweet, subtle and supple, Tosca's tracks drift, sifting from one dream to the next. Though they patch hip-hop, jazz, ambient, and techno together, you can't hear where one begins and the other ends. "Annanas" pairs sneaky, squeaky scratching with a lusty female vocal and bossa-nova-inspired hip-hop breaks, while "Orozco" loops a playful riff, running it through reverbs and filters, creating something like pure bliss for the ears. --Tricia Romano

Customer Reviews

Perfect Chill CD to tune out to....
I first heard this CD when I was studying to take the BAR exam almost 7 years ago. The blend of music is chilling, relaxing and fun. It actually helped relax me and get ready for the Bar preparation. This is a classic album and different than any K&D sound but still very intriguing and pleasing to the ears and the soul. I highly recommend it. Also get K&D's G-Stoned Ep if you can find it. Antoher pure genius and classic.

Excellent Disc
I thought this was a fantastic disc. Nice smooth rhythms, great beats and they all seemed to flow one after another like they were meant to be together as a compilation almost. I really enjoyed this disc, it had a great style and tempo. I highly recommend this disc.

tosca take me away
they are too amazing. just go ahead and buy all their stuff-- just go. now.
and get all kruder & dorfmeister too. and surf around and listen to other stuff on g-stoned (their label-- the have a site)if you end up getting into them-- it is worth the time. some of the stuff on their label is just ok, but some of the stuff is as good as they are.
seriously talented djs.
no matter what you mostly listen to- you are highly likely to enjoy these guys. they are all encompassing like that.
