This short, 5 track album from the Spaniard Javier Moreno is a blend of striking Spanish folk music and upbeat flamenco. This is Javier’s second release, following the release of his first album Un Tesoro, which was sung in Spanish tongue. This album is sung in English beautifully with small passages of Spanish language, which are used creatively and add authenticity to the Mediterranean sound.
Javier has been on the scene in this country since 2006 and this album should definitely give him the credit that he justly deserves. It is not mainstream by any stretch of the imagination, nor is it bound for huge success or popularity but do not let that put you off.

The Fun Lovin’ Criminals have been around now since they formed in New York in 1993. There alternative hip hop/rock style and injections of jazz, funk and soul, coupled with comedy in the bands lyrics have generally been well accepted by the British Public with their past albums, although I doubt this album, Classic Fantastic will do much chart climbing.
There first album in 5 years and there 6th in total lacks any really good tracks and generally lacks any imagination, the lyrics are horribly simple, even with the inclusion of Roots Manuva on track 5, Keep On Yellin’ There are a few plusses, there’s some good beats and funky rhythms and some good retro 70’s soul, but there is no comedy or fun in the lyrics or vocals to really back up any of the musical merits.
