Exel

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: 808 State

Release Date September 29, 2008
A much more complete and consistent album than the previous '90'. It contains guest appearances from Bernard Sumner of New Order and Bjork.

Made in the early 90's so you've got to remember before buying that this was made at a time when dance music was sweeping through the UK and this Manchester group contributed to it. It may sound slightly dated compared to today's dance music but the effort that was put into this album makes it much more 'real'.

It's a mix of soft techno numbers and aggressive rave tracks. The opener 'San Francisco' is a melodic mix of techno and hip-hop while 'Lion' is a reggae-ish techno track. 'Lambrusco Cowboy' is one of the most abrasive beginning tracks 'the state' have ever produced, yet ultimately ... Read More:

Imagine

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Armin Van Buuren

Release Date June 09, 2008
After poor releases from Tiesto and Lange trance master Armin gets it right with this melodic new feast.
Going wrong/ Fine without you are killer vocal tracks but the tune on this album is with the best female singer on the planet Sharon Del Adel from symphonic rockers Within Temptation
, In and Out of Love.
It had to be a good album to top his first release, is it as good? only time will tell.
Also buy Solarstone new album even better!

Balance 013: Mixed By SOS

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

Release Date April 21, 2008
Boys, you have the media attention, the gravitas, the complete spiel, and yet you allow your sets to be released to disc with sound that has complete over-distortion, bad production and an overriding sense of cash/cow nausea.

The mix is fine, the sound quality is a shocker, and you sound like amateurs on a home Akai, and if The BALANCE team think this is OK, then Here Endeth the Prayer.

Cream 15 Years

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

Release Date April 28, 2008
Just had my new garden furniture delivered and take great pride in assembling it and putting it on the balcony then standing back and admiring it. I would feel very old and sad even though I'm only 27 would it not be for the fact that I was listening to 15 yrs of Cream whilst doing it and dancing around the flat like a loon. My boyfriend bought me this CD for our 21st month anniversary last week and I strongly suggest to anyone who used to go clubbing from 1999 onwards to get it, its amazing, tune after tune blasting out of my stereo, a real treat. I've played it over 10 times since I've got it and can guarantee I won't be tiring of it.... feel like I'm 19 yrs old all over again!

Ninety

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: 808 State

Release Date September 29, 2008
These three lads would go onto to produce some of the most memorable electronic and dance music of the early 90's, but for now they seemed just to be working their way upto it. Contains an early version of 'Pacific' which is a must for all fans though.

Other highlights include the speedy 'Cobra Bora' and the female vocal led 'Anaconda'.

But it does lack consistency and there is no flow to the album. It just sounds as if it has been thrown together.

This was such a bargain. Arrived in excellent condition, really quickly and was cheaper to buy as a CD than just downloading the tracks I really like from any download site.

Futurism: Mixed By Danny Tenaglia

CD-Charts > Music > House and Garage
by: Danny Tenaglia

Release Date August 04, 2008
This is an absolutely cracking album. Danny has crafted together a Gem of a mix - the constant quality of the tracks is mindblowing. The track 'Work Me' by Bumpin' Ugly is one of the best electrofunk tracks I have ever heard. He has seen the Future and it sounds fantastic. Get excited! Love it!
