This is a very special song, created by The Bliss to support the fight against HIV/AIDS in Southern Africa. Cut in a radio-friendly format for the FM stations in the region, it features young rap artists from Swaziland - a small African country where HIV infection rate is at almost 40% - conveying key messages for their generation. The song is also blessed by the powerful vocals of American legend Vic Pitts. |

"Listen to The Bliss while you are leisurely slicing through the cool waters of the swimming pool on a dusky evening, or while just enjoying the dying sun, and you'll know what Nirvana is. No kidding.
Enjoy!"

"The production of the CD is incredible. The vocals just shimmer throughout the mix. The music is tight. The songs just flow and groove me. I am surprised that The Bliss have not yet blown up in the States..." -

"Don’t get sidetracked by the terminology used to classify the spectacular sounds of this group because it’s inherently different to distant fans cruising on the Internet. If you see a music title by The Bliss, put your mouse on it as quickly as you can, then click to start the download because whether you brush your teeth in the South Bronx or on the French Riviera, you will love what you hear and you will smile when you hear it, then you will definitely want more."

"Yes... this is the good old All Blues by Miles Davis, only - it's turned around to be in 4/4 instead of the traditional 6/8, and it's sung and played over a deep, dark trip-hop groove. The most interesting version I've heard in years of this hyper-utilised (probably over-utilised...) standard. The vocals are simply extraordinary." - Peter Schwarzenberger, alljazz.de |

"When it comes to jazz I am not exactly the biggest fan, but I have to admit that I enjoyed this disc. There's a bit of acid jazz and real roots here and I am sure that anyone would find the tracks great for an evening in front of the fire or just relaxing in the sun. What really stands out is the singer's dazzling and feminine voice. She sings sweet highs and lows into a nice and decadent pop/jazz blend. The saxophone also captures a great pitch and tempo that blends well with the slightly electronic sounding keyboards. A great disc for any collection if you are looking for something a little more relaxing and with a little bit of lounge feel." - The GATE music reviews

"Scottish-born vocalist Angela Higney delivers a winning performance on this smoky acid-jazz tune. (...) Ms. Higney soulfully saunters through the tune, letting the lyrics trip and tumble forth like it's 2 hours into the second set in an intimate club setting. She lists EBTG (Tracy Thorn), Sade as similar artists, to whom I would add England's Swing Out Sister and St Etienne." THE RAMBO REPORT, June 1999 |

"I was stumbling around the Acid Jazz sectionof MP3.com and found your music. I was very impressed by yoursound! Generally it is pretty hard to find any music that Ilike, and it just so happens that I truly enjoyed each and every song of yours that I could find. You are blessed with a voice much like Tracy Thorn and a sound that I just can't get out ofmy head, the best combination." Jeremy Escobar, USA |

Something really different here. Piero rapping in Italian and playing one of his best solos over a phat hip-hop groove. Angela, for once, is "backing vocals"... |
