Hed Kandi World Series - Ibiza: the Sound of the White Isle 2008

CD-Charts > Music > Compilations
by: Various Artists

Release Date September 08, 2008
I have to say that hed kandi have done a great job here they really have captured the sounds of ibiza this year! Unlike ministry who seem to just use the word ibiza for some kind of commercial gain and slap anything together and sometimes its debateble if it has been mixed at all. If your'e wanting cd's that represent ibiza this year with precision mixing you'll not go wrong here an allround top mix from start to finish... Wait for the sun to shine (it will one day) grab a cold beer and get in the garden with the tunes on and you'd think you were on bora bora beach ;) Niiiiiiice!

Invol2ver: Mixed By Sasha

CD-Charts > Music > Compilations
by: Sasha

Release Date September 08, 2008
I've never quite got into Sasha, I've never felt like calling anyone a 'legend' and probably the man himself wishes nobody did either! But from the first listen this CD oozes high level production talent and totally draws you in. Lots of interesting changes and grooves to ensure it doesn't lack personality or soul like some progressive house can. This is simply a blisteringly good example of a man whose asked for nothing and given something very special which I feel will stand the test of time, and that I guess is why they call him a legend, well earn't I say.

The Best Gregorian Chant Album In The World... Ever!

CD-Charts > Music > Compilations
by: Monks & Choir Boys Of Downside Abbey

Release Date April 19, 2004
My wife (for whom I bought it) says that this CD set is very restful and soothing and I have to say that I quite like to hear the singing in the background whilst I slave away at the computer. And, of course, the great thing is that we got two CDs for about the price of one. Excellent!

Dave Pearce Trance Anthems 2008

CD-Charts > Music > Compilations
by: Various Artists

Release Date April 07, 2008
OK. A host of classics re spun and rearranged into 3 CD's. Nothing really new here but ok to play at home pre party. I'm sure it will sell well but just another commercial album. The new club scene will probably go for this one but not cutting edge enough for me.

The Best Military Bands Album In The World... Ever!

CD-Charts > Music > Compilations
by: Various Artists

Release Date May 02, 2005
I would guess that most people these days, upon seeing this album in the listings, would opine that the marketing department at EMI must be scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with this for their "Best...In The World...Ever" series. Fans of band music will shun it for its pick-and-mix composition, and everyone else will not give it a second thought.

Unfashionable it may be, but there is nothing quite like the raw power and stirring sound of a military band playing live, unadulterated by electronics and amplification, and, while it is almost impossible to transfer this energy satisfactorily to record, to simply ignore it is to miss out on some blistering tunes and harmonies, and great music overall, and I would argue that there's a place ...

Lima Limited Edition

CD-Charts > Music > Compilations
by: Various

Release Date October 13, 2008
Real good tracks but it is kept at a reasonable pace. It doesn't quite develop, so could appear a little boring. Tight and flawless nice music, more melodic than progressive the way it used to be. The Paris GU mix is similar.
Good for summer listening, and background - versatile for everywhere.
Nothing extreme. I have the tracks separately which are excellent, but this mix does not develop - There are more epic stand out mixes... This is good but I want people to know not to expect a 5 star GU Release... yet again. Unfortunately.

Hed Kandi - The Mix 2008

CD-Charts > Music > Compilations
by: Various Artists

Release Date November 19, 2007
I agree with the reviewer below in that some of HK's recent releases have been slightly dodgy and appear to be cashing in on the rise in popularity of funky house music. Die hard fans have been complaining for months about the acquisition of the brand from ailing and tyrannical parent MoS, but it seems that the producers of this album have been given a more free reign to take HK back to its roots.
I'm glad CD1 wasn't reprasentative of the whole album, with lots of fairly commercial "heard it all before" tracks, only saved by decent mixing, however CD2 and 3 are subliminal. Never have Hed Kandi been this funky, the only comparison I can think of is HK: The Mix 50, another brilliant compilation. Tracks from Dervish, Bel Amour, Doc Da Funk, Stonebridge & ... Read More:
