Dance House Children have finished their second project, Jesus, and it shows much improvement. The music is the same Euro-pop, techno-dance style, but it's sped up a little. There's a lot more drum machine than before, too. It's kinda a pleasant, soft and airy type of house mix. The variety is great and the vocals are stronger on this album.
I'd say if you liked the first Dance House Children project, you'll love this one, and if you haven't heard their first one just check Jesus out. It's a really good album and the music is impressive, not to mention that the two guys in the band are only 18 and 20 years old.
Jesus will give you hope for the future of the house mix chapter in the Christian music scene. I encourage you to give it a chance, but remember just because the word DANCE appears in the title doesn't mean you'll get an incident notice for listening.
