Album Description:
As dance music has evolved, so too have Way Out West. What originally began life as a producer-based outfit has grown over the years. After two years of almost constant production work, writing and recording, the band are set to release their third, and self-proclaimed, "best album to date" Don’t Look Now.
Originally a duo, Bristol, UK-based producers Nick Warren and Jody Wisternoff – top class international DJ’s in their own right; the pair have added a ‘secret weapon’. Enter Omi. A featured vocalist on tracks for Starecase, Timo Maas, an all girl drum ‘n’ bass outfit, Eden and the one and only Peter Gabriel, Omi brings an emotional authenticity to Don’t Look Now that is sorely lacking on so many other electronica artist albums. Fans of Way Out West’s past releases won’t be disappointed, but neither will fans of Sarah McLachlan or Dido. It’s just that sort of album.
Don’t Look Now glides from the staccato kick-drum and yearning vocals of upcoming single, ‘Anything But You,’ to the epic space age poignancy of ‘Everyday.’ Luscious soundscapes shift gracefully from the textured balearia of ‘Chasing Rainbows’ to the main room dirty odyssey of ‘Killa’ through to rollicking bongo twists and mangled basslines on ‘Fear.’
The album also includes a second CD bonus mix by DJ’s Nick Warren & Jody Wisternoff featuring tracks from Gray Area, Martin Buttrich, Hiratzka & Kazell, and Way Out West.

I've listened to this CD non-stop in my car for the past 4 months. And I have still yet to grow sick of this CD. With most CDs, the novelty wears off and it's impossible to listen to the CD without rotation. It's such a different CD than Intensify--- dare I say more radio-friendly?
While there are a few vocal tracks on this CD, I don't think it detracts at all from Way out West's reputation for producing quality house music. With a good interjection of groovable non-vocal tunes like ... Read More

Having become a "real band" - employing a singer and drummer - during the production of many of the tracks on this album, Way Out West often show a different, more contemplative side to their music. Of course, the storming prog house and breaks for which they are best known remains, though this is only one side of this album of great depth and longevity.
Beginning with the tight kicks of the vocal-led "Anything But You", and moving into the slow and emotional "Don't Forget Me" (which ... Read More

This album is not on the level as Way Out West's self titled album, but it is well composed and overall a quality album (CD1). W.O.W. use a lot of female vocal work in the tracks on this album. A couple of the tracks are enhanced by the vocal work, but most are deflated by the plain, steryotypical, overdone, and superficial lyrics which is a shame becuase most of the musical composition is very well done. I think people that are into the club scene or have a significant other that is into more ... Read More

It's a good stuff, typical Nick Waren's cooking. Sound of the album is no different, than it was on their first CD four years ago. Do not miss Warren's new "Shanghai" album - out july 12th, I heard a promo - it rocks!!!

I was skeptical when I first picked up this cd (my first experience with way out west) but was pleased after a few listens. I was drawn to this album after hearing the radio-ready first track, and though I tired of it fairly quickly I found there was much to be discovered on the rest of the album. Way out west is superbly fine-tuned original techno, the kind that's hard to find in a sea of DJ mixes and traditional compilations. The first cd is addictive and grows on you quickly... Lots of heavy emotion ... Read More
