"I would purchase Sandy Rivera on the strength of his past productions. I always felt "In The Night" was a banger that never fully got it's due in the club's. In fact I was kind of excited when I saw this release. I was hoping and wishing for more of "It's In The Lifestyle" -- this is NOT, and I guess it's a little unrealistic to expect more of the same. Sandy went for a completely different sound and that is what you are supposed to do if you are growing as an artist/producer/DJ. Do I like it -- the jury is still out. What I keep in mind is that Sandy has a global presence although the few times he has played NYC he brought it hard. World beat and ethnic music has greatly influenced House music and "Touble" is a reflection of that."
