Tri-State

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Above & Beyond

Release Date August 01, 2007
...among thousands owned. A matter of taste of course. Truly spectacular when enjoyed via a hi-fi system that covers 5 Hz - 20kHz flatly, as this entire range is covered in various passages. To be able to afford such a system (particularly below 20 Hz), examine the "Buttkicker" ULF add-on or Sony MDR-V7509 (or MDR-V700DJ) headphones. The variety, performance and overall taste of instruments used, including vocals, are amazing to me.

Boss Drum

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Shamen

Release Date March 29, 1999
I must admit now that this is my favourite album in the universe so this review may seem a little biased. Not only does it include all the major hits ('Ebeneezer Goode', 'LSI', 'Comin' On' and 'Phorever People'), it also has a number of unreleased gems and dubs, which just add to the fact that this is quite possibly the best rave/dance/indie album ever.

100 Anthems - Drum 'n' Bass

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Various Artists

Release Date May 20, 2008
There's a number of tunes I remember here from the old days, that's the good. The bad, well, unfortunately these are not the full versions. In order to get 20 tracks onto an audio cd they have (unsurprisingly) had to cut each one down to about 4 minutes or a bit under that. At a guess most should go on for about 6 minutes and these are not "radio edit" type affairs either, they music just suddenly fades out.
I'm being slightly generous giving it 3 stars, but that's taking into account the low price. I would have paid treble if these were the full versions.

The Collection

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Shamen

Release Date October 18, 1999
A "best of" album that does not include any tracks from their two earlier albums is not really a "best of". This release serves its purpose for those that discovered the Shamen when "Ebeneezer Goode" and "Boss Drum" were relaeased and gained chart success. But for those of us who remember The Shamen from the late 80's with such glorious albums as "In Gorbachev We Trust" and "Phorward" as opposed to the commerical Shamen stuff shorn of its hardcore edge this "Best Of" is to be avoided.

Its only saving grace is the inclusion of the superb Omega Amigo, but as I said, where are the real Shamen classics ? "Synergy" "Reraptyouare" "Jesus Loves Amerika" and the astonishing "Transcendental".

This is a disappointing album.

Reverence/Irreverence

by: Faithless

Release Date August 09, 2004
Id never got around to reviewing any faithless album. All can say is Faithless is just tOOOOOOOOOOO good years go by and its still better. Well i would say this was there 3rd best album comparing with Outrospective,Sunday 8pm and the new No roots. For me Outrospective my favorite but too some other are not keen on trance/house then Reverence is the best for others. This album probaly the best beginer album for anybody who never heard any faithles before.

4. If lovin' you is wrong
5. Angeline
6. Insomnia
9. Baseball cap
10. Drifting away
11. Salva mea
Disc2 remixes ARE TOP TOO BUY!

Hotel Costes - Etage 3

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Stephane Pompougnac

Release Date October 30, 2000
It's 2006 yet this CD is as current as if its release date were yesterday. Stephane Pompougnac is, in a word, a gifted master of chillout mix. All Hotel Costes discs are first class but the tunes chosen stike me as the crème de la crème particularly Track 11, "PNC aux Portes", which, --if you've ever been to an afterparty-- you know and love.

I know, I know, you would prefer if this were posted at Amazon USA, but I often buy from Amazon UK or FR because discs for European release generally include more tracks. Lucky you!

The Annual Vol.2

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Various Artists, Pete Tong, Boy George

Release Date November 04, 1996
I must be getting old-I was well into this back in the day but found it a bit boring now. On the other hand I am increasingly into trance music...oh dear maybe I should see a doctor.
