Flower Power II

DJ Dazy
Portland, OR
US/Cassette

XLR8R Review:

Dazy's new tape clearly shows her progression from "just another progressive DJ" to someone who understands the power of really expressive house music. Her mixing is superb, smooth and responsive, and her record selection is different and sensitive. One of Dazy's main talents is her ability to read and respond to a crowd, which obviously is not something one can tell from a tape alone, so you'd better get your sorry ass out to hear her next time she's in town.

Recommended for modern house heads.

URB Magazine Review:

"Fifty dollars or more, in the House of God." Don't worry, that classic cut's not on this tape, but when I listened to it, I managed to get back to the days when liquid was set ablaze and membership had its privileges. It's been a long time since I've heard someone tap into the deeper, moving side of house, but Dazy drops a dose of bass that'll move everybody in the place to outer space. There are no divas singing their hearts out in this house, just sweet, powerful rhythms and back-breaking basslines. Bringing back the garage groove with an uptempo rhythm and high energy vibe that stays alive all the way through, the selection of records seem designed to keep you working up a sweat and loving every minute of it. Few female DJs have made it into the limelight, but with concrete skills, a brilliant selection of records, and her finger on the pulse of the house groove, Dazy seems destined for center stage.
