Customer Reviews

Six Degrees' CD - Traveler '06
Traveler 06, a Six Degrees Collection, shouldn't be confused for something it's not. The project's breakthru marvel 'Arabian Lights' set the bar so high that any follow up effort would fall well short. Using the phrase 'apples to oranges', O6 presents a 'next generation beat' version of music, centering not on the Arabian peninsula's version of 'new wave', but of the rising-ly mainstream Central Asia (India) music scene. The only comparison to Traveler 06 is music from the Indian beat duet Midival Punditz. Stuff any work of theirs into iTunes with the Six Degrees sampler '06, categorize it as 'World'....
....and share it. This is the future of club/party music in the U.S.

Good stuff1
Take a trip to a foreign land an soak up the sounds it has to offer.

Bring da global noize!
While I love just about everything the Six Degrees crew puts out, this is by far the most "banging" of the annual Traveler compilations. The emphasis on the '06 edition of this series is on HEAVY Dance-floor beats! With remixers like Dalata, Banco de Gaia, Junkie XL and Temple of Sound putting their own spin on the Six D posse, how could this be anything but slamming? This aint your grandpa's world music, that's for sure!
