Press Reviews "SINGER NOCERA, who's had previous chart success prior to this venture, is as at home rapping as she is singing. With Gregg Fine and John Roggie, the music here is a loose, trippy blend of hip hop, acid jazz, and points in-between and elsewhere. "Don't You Worry" has a cool sensibility about it, a laid back groove that just wafts out of the speakers. "When You Say Goodbye" has a world beat, island dreaminess to it, almost lounge like. This is the kind of music that makes you want to put colored lights all over your apartment, and make yourself a trendy cocktail with a flavored vodka. Production is excellent, and some of the low bass notes will have you thinking that your downstairs neighbor is pounding on the ceiling."---------------From www.NYrock.com---------------"SKIN DEEP has the lushest production I've heard from any of our readers so far. It's not a bad tune, either. Singer Nocera has such a distinctive voice, which took her to the top of the dance and pop charts in the States last year with a single called Summertime Summertime. But don't get your knickers in a twist about us choosing professional demos: VOS are unsigned so they still qualify as FM demoists, albeit very accomplished ones. As for the music, Greg and John blend modern trip pop sounds with some Loose Endz-like rhythm fills. This is about as close to perfection a humble demo can get."--------------- From Future Music Magazine, January 2000.
