House the way I like it....

"Very much in the spirit of the Naked Music "Nude Dimensions" collection, this disc is clearly rooted in the r&b/funk family of house music. Mellow enough to listen too, groovey enough to keep your toes tapping, "Inspirations" strikes a great balance that seems to elude most house compilations. While reminiscent of "Nude Dimensions" in tone, the tracks on this disc are not as slickly produced, and consequently sound truer to the more barebone roots of house music. A definite recommend. (also in the same school of discs - Harry the Bastard "Club H" volume one and NiteLife volume 3 by Miguel "Migs")"

"One of the most gifted and talented production teams of the NY underground house, John Mateo and Eddie Matos were educated in listening to classic disco tunes in the 70's and were inspired by legendary DJs such as Shep Pettibone, Tony Humphries and Lil' Louie Vega. All of the songs in this compilation have a jazzy and soulful vibe in it. Although, I just discovered this cd but never is too late. You can enjoy the great tunes in this cd at any hour of the day and night and feel extremely relaxed! An excellent compilation."
