Milight

This is another sweet KRUSH album while it is not my favorite I still love what he does and would buy anything with his name on it.

Milight is a wonderful album for trip-hop enthusiasts. DJ Krush has a great way of mixing minimal sound effects for maximum impact. The bass and sound mixing in this album is nearly flawless and has the best audio mix and sound of any of his albums to date. My favorite track is "Jugoya" which means literally the 15th night, marks the 15th day of the 8th lunar month of the Chinese calendar (which is usually mid or late September for our calendar) and is a deep and resonent sounding instrumental. The instrumental pieces are quite good but I find his collaborations with American Rappers to be mundane as the rappers lyrics are mediocre at best. Overall this is a great Trip-Hop Album.

Millight is the best Krush album out there. It has the perfect balance of ambient and hip hop. Perfect production and it's quite lengthly. The speeches in between each track from the collaborating artist in my opinion add to the international flavor of the album. Minimalist at its' finest. Impressive. Standout tracks are Le Temps, Skin Against Skin, Jikan No Hashi 2, and Jugoya. Don't be fooled though, the rest is fantastic. Highly recommended.

DJ Krush's Milight is a wonderful hip hop recording. While there is fantastic MC work done in both English and Japanese, the focus of this album is still those amazing beats. DJ Krush seems to possess a talent in Hip Hop that I don't think I hear out of many DJ's. Not only does he have one great beat, but an arsenal of many. He likes to mix a little jazz in there too. If you like him check out DJ CAM and DJ FOOD, two of my other favorite hip hop DJ's.

I own two dj krush albums, Milight and Kakusei, both excellent pieces of instrumental hip-hop. But for sheer pleasure you can't beat the experience of his turntable skills in front of a live audience. I checked him out last year in a small club in Copenhagen and his performance was intense. Also his attitude towards the crowd was a sight to behold. He came on to the stage without a word and started spinning and left an hour and a half later bowing to show us his respect! If you ever get the chance to see Nippon's premier dj (along with Honda) be theeere!

a couple of years now I listen to ambient but when I heard milight for the first time I was sold! It`s such a good album I`d only knew meiso and the debut cd dj krush! if you like dj krush, shadow, vadim spinna I strongly reccomend you to listen to Aim - cold water music you! Greetz.. see you at the krush concert ;o) !

DJ Krush uses answering machine recordings and interviews of fellow producers and musicians on MILIGHT, but the style is still all Krush's own. The mellow beats are in full-effect, even as the furious Japanese rapping patters atop of "Shin-Sekai" or the English spitting on "Tragedy." But the birds chirping on the quiet and melancholy "Jugoya" have much more impact, to my ears, as does the abstract vibraphone jazz of "Listen." DJ Cam's able French touch extends "Le Temps" into a horn-inflected meditation, borrowing an extended sample from Cam's track "Angel Dust." Mos Def adds a nice funk party vibe to "Shinjiro" and "Light (Can You See It?)," while Eri Ohno adds a soulful vibe to the spare "Mind Games." Deborah Anderson rounds out the album with her vocals on "Skin on Skin," a track that veers towards Portishead territory but without totally going there. MILIGHT shimmers, but doesn't quite shine.

this is a good cd!!i was thinkin that it would have more instrumentals then songs with differents artist singing on it, it has 28 tracks on it, and i say that 20 out of the 28 are good, becuz there are alot of things that should not have been in there, but overall it is a very good cd!!!

album came in good conditions no skips. love this album

great album.
