Since Blackie posted stats, I made this little link up to each cd release with a few thoughts, this is xposted on takami826 and blackjaq

BlackJaq Cafe Vol II:way too long to copy & paste & it's all in French anyway. Quiteamusing, I laughed as I dumped these into bablefish for roughtranslations. Why do I laugh at a negative review? Well, that kind ofstuff doesn't upset me, I'd never share any creative endeavors if I gotupset at negative responses! To me, this listener spent 77mins and10seconds listening to a CD he clearly hated after the first few songs,yet felt so inspired by it that he felt the need to spend even moretime commenting on each and every song!!! I think that's HILARIOUS.Hell, even the cd cover shows how funny we think it is!!

BlackJaq Cafe Vol I: fairly positive, high end star ratings. Nothing exciting there but positives are, well, positive!

Navigate by the Light of the Glowing Buddha:we grew a lot from Earthly Delights with our sophomore release and thereview there is positive. We need to make more of an effort to pimp ourwares and I think this CD would do fairly well.

Earthly Delights:our debut collaborative CD, I love this CD even though there's momentsof pure cheese. This was circulated a lot during Pyro's time in Iraqand when I've met some of his unit, Bitchslap and Princess get quotedto me more than anything else. Blackie, it almost tells me we shouldfocus on a sardonic, cheesy collaboration next. Between you, me,Buffalo and Schmed, well Bitchslap truly is the hit on Earthly Delights.

DJBlackwidow has a few solo cds, so here's some links to his Jamendoreleases with glowing reviews in most circumstances. I can't comment alot because I am way too biased and think most of what Blackie does isinspiring. It's not always a style or genre I personally like, but theway he can bust out cd after cd.... it's incredibly impressive. (espwhile I'm still toiling on my first solo cd!!!)

Zen Cities: Iread some reviews and, despite all being positive, I wonder if some ofthese people are commenting on what they are listening to or justpulling randomness from the dark crevices of their arses. I mean, thereviews here clearly show that, as a creator, you have to take thesethings with a grain of salt. "I don't know what this has to do withmeditation" then the very next review "this will become my meditationcd!!" (paraphrased) That's hilarious!

Leaving Town: Another bit of Blackie genius here and this cracks me up. "Regarding"Reflection" and "Jasmine": Damn! I've already discovered some elementsof those tracks in MEA's Album "Mysterious Sounds" which i'd recommend.Intention? By chance? Same synthesizer prefabs perhaps?" HAHAHA yea think?!  Doof we probably all use acid pro! oops I mean, oh influence, it's all influence.

North Star: I enjoy this CD a lot and the reviews agree with my thoughts. This is a thoughtful CD.

DJ Blackwidow Remixed:I downloaded this but haven't had a chance to get it on my rotation onmy mp3 player yet, but this has positive reviews so far!! I think myAsian influences are rubbing off big time, though. :)
