REVIEWS


“ Outstanding Aussies. I had lost faith in the Oz music scene 30 years ago, but this album revived it. Will listen to the others and probably buy them, “Outstanding” mixture of beats/ rhythms/ vocals/ instrumentation, if you enjoy funk, jazz, reggae, world, rap, psychadelia beats this album will more than satisfy” author: Kiddus, itunes

*****

“More funky grooves to chill and thrill you.This album is somewhat different from the previous two but in a good way. A bit more dancy, funky but still with that happy, easygoing spirit we have come to know and love with OKA. A bit of a reggae vibe and more synth music find their way in, but nothing is sacrificed or lost with the changes. Another well worn favourite in my car, ipod etc. See these guys live if you can possibly do it. And buy all their CD's - you won't regret it! “ author: Penny in Toronto, CDBaby

Oka is the best author: Joan

Again, another great cd from Oka. The music is very calming, relaxing and uplifting all at the same time. Great beats and flutes and didgeridoo. The best music out there!

I have seen Oka a number of times and they have been amazing. This CD makes you feel at one with the music like its running through you, im pretty sure Oka are the BEST BAND EVER, and this cd shows you that.

Amazing music author: Nadia

I saw Oka at the International Busker festival in Halifax, and they were AWESOME! Their music attracted young as well as old listeners. I could of stood there all day listening to them...(Too bad they had to leave). So, of course, Music Makes Me Happy is the best alternative to seeing them live. I hope I will be able to see them again sometime.

A must have!

The Best author: Helene

I love this cd and play it all the time, it makes me happy

*****

This CD is as intoxicating as OKA's Elements and Onetalk author: Annie

Music Makes Me Happy does just that. Oka's music helps you to travel to a place where nothing matters. It's free and easy. I play each of their 3 CD's one after the other, and then want to start all over again.

Growing with ever step they take - funky and fun - listen! author: Sue

Stu, Matt and Chris continue to grow and explore, pushing the boundaries with this superb blend of organic funk. Like the best fusion food this feast tickles the taste buds and leaves you craving more - looking forward to the next aural orgasim!

*****

author: Verna

I first heard this CD in a taxi cab in Toronto, Canada and was blown away by the sound. I offered to buy the CD from the driver but he declined. But lucky me. I traced the music to CD Baby and now the "music makes me happy" too.

*****

The only CD I've ever listened to over and over! author: Scott

We never heard of OKA until visiting Halifax in Aug/2005. While walking through the Busker festival we were suddenly drawn to their music, not initially knowing they were performing live! We regret only purchasing this CD on the spot and not all 3. Each song is a treat and has something special to it - if you can ever watch them perform I highly recommend it - it's amazing to watch them "create" their music! I can't think of many CDs which I listen to over and over without skipping around, it's 60+ minutes of grooving and relaxation!
