Hailing from the Gotee Record stable this DVD compilation contains, according to the package, "exclusive videos previously unreleased in the UK." On the DVD we are treated to the likes of 4th Avenue Jones, Relient K, House Of Heroes, Out Of Eden, Family Force 5 and John Reuben. As can be expected from Gotee the production and quality are all top notch. The music is more rock than urban with even rapper John Reuben joining in the rock circus being ably assisted by Matthew Thiessen of Relient K fame. Two stand outs are 4th Avenue Jones' "Stereo" with the blend of music that they call hiprocksoul and Family Force 5's "Kountry Gentlemen" which brings together a mixture of punk, rock, funk and some grooves thrown in for good measure which the band quaintly call crunk rock. Both videos have a quirky sense of humour attached to them both. So if you haven't caught up with what Gotee are about and want to see and hear what kind of delicacies are on offer then you won't go wrong with this DVD and for the bargain price of £1.99 you can't go far wrong.
