Summary: a couple gems surrounded by muzak
Comment: Let me state at the outset that Deep Forest's first album made a huge, positive impact on me. As strange as this may sound, it really inspired me in high school to develop a wider appreciation for the music of foreign cultures and, by association, foreign cultures themselves. In fact, I've played that album for friends of mine from all walks of life, from blue collar to academic, and without exception, all have seemed to really enjoy it. Somehow, Deep Forest managed with that first album to connect with people in an intellectual and visceral way.
Deep Forest's second album, while a bit different and maybe not as tight, grew on me over time. Every album since, though, has been progressively worse--thus, "Music Detected" is so far the worst of the bunch.
Frankly, all you have to do is listen to the laughably awful muzak that is "Computer Machine" (sadly indicative of most of this album) and you'll understand why Deep Forest's "Music Detected" is one of the WORST new age-y albums ever. And at a time when the rare good stuff is buried under a vapid avalanche of John Tesh and Yanni, that's sayin' something.
I hate to be the first one to point out that the emperor has no clothes, but a cold wind is blowing through said emperor's legs, the shadow is burned on the wall, and Deep Forest is what it is--an extremely mediocre studio group of sound-mixers who got lucky on their first couple albums, and have been suffering from a musical identity crisis ever since.
"Music Detected" swings wildly from new age to muzak to hard rock sprinkled with arbitrary foreign yodeling without even the simple, ambient quality present even in, say, Enigma's weaker songs. The ONLY exceptions are "Yuki's Song" and "Will You Be Ready", which show a bit more care and depth and are actually decent. At least compared to the rest of the muzak. Perhaps two decent songs on an album would be enough to pass, were this anyone else, but I guess I'm still holding out a fading hope that Deep Forest is capable of more than this.
