Music: EKIN CHENG "Discovery"

After wasting 2 (or more) years of his career at EEG doing nothing but collecting a hefty paycheque (isn't that nice?), Ekin is back. "Discovery" is his first album with his new (and former) record label BMG.

"Discovery" is a 2 CD new song + compilation that includes 4 new songs. CD 1 track 1 "In the hearts" is a very pleasant tune, kinda reflects Ekin's current feelings. The current plug song on radio is CD 2 track 1 "Internal injury", a rather typical Ekin ballad. The other 2 new tracks in the album are CD 1 track 2 "Thanks for your hard work" and CD 2 track 2 "Don't let me see him".

The compilation part covers pretty much all his old hits, from songs like "Days of friendship" (CD 1 track 3) to classic ballads like "Still loving deeply" (CD 1 track 13) and "Until sky and earh disappears" (CD 2 track 13).

Call me old school, listening to Ekin's oldies reminded me about how bad his singing was, but it's still better than many of the newcomes today.

Ekin doesn't release many compilations. "Discovery" is worth its price even just for the compilation part.

Rating: 7.5/10

Buy the CD here

Recommendations:
CD 1 track 1 "In the heart"
CD 2 track 1 "Internal injury"
Almost all of the compilation part.

Isn't Discovery the title of one of his older songs?

Yup. not sure if it's a coincidence though.

Yup, but "The Best Show" was many years ago (at least 7 years ago).
