This record has several strengths.  The lyrics are catchy and at times poignant.  You Fly Above Me is absolutely infectious and Plastique is great social commentary.  The performances are solid and the arrangements just right.  The rhythms are tight and the voicing very effective.  I’ve been a fan of Musiqua’s work for a few years now and what first attracted me to it is his use of chords – conventional enough for a broad audience without being mundane.  Alpha is just the beginning of what I hope will be a long and productive career, but it sounds as if it comes to us from a seasoned veteran.  I highly recommend it.

When i first listed to the CD i was stunned, it's a great mix of diffrent styles, but you also here that it's the same guy. Many of the songs stick like glue after a while, can't get them out of my head, A duet for Two is one of them, and the lyrics is great, take Plastique for example, it's lyrics really says something about our time.
