Despite Trance Ambient's rather misleading title the cuts on here are all quite good, half the music contained within is trance and the other half is more like trip-hop and mellow house with a dash of ambient dub. The artists are for the most part previously unheard of, although the rumor is that a number of well known artists appear under pseudonyms. The most impressive tracks are those by Native Budz, "Bruthas" being the compilation's title track which does an nice job of living up to it's claim of "sounding like marijuana," and contains some excellent and aggressive panning on the beats. "India" by Pandora's Box is a graceful, and charming mellow trip with some Asian influences. And of the trancier tracks, Zon's "Chrome" is very nice, but Crystalsphere's "Future Vision" is a load of bollocks. A bit of a mixed bag but the overall quality is better than average.
