Vinny Da Vinci has created a reputation of being one of the few house DJs that play extremely good deep house tunes in South Africa.
On this compilation though he takes it further, putting together a dream team of releases added by impeccable mixing.
It is not easy now days to listen to mixes and compilations and not skip or fast forward to the next track, but here it is something that is near to impossibility to do... even to pick out your favorite track.
But if I were to be put under serious pressure to select the best from this compilation, It would be Alright, Santa Monica, La Peau Douce, Sunlight In My Eyes & Somethin Else.
These tracks have got me dancing, even in the most tired state a human can possibly be in and still not feel like I have take my last breath.
On moments though, when I listen to this CD without the intent of getting up and dancing it brings a feeling that I cannot describe, a feeling that is like crying tears of joy with an element of sadness in it...
A feeling that makes one wonder how is it possible to make such unbelievably good music.
By far, currently the best compilation of deep house released in South Africa!
