Bass Breaker Vol.1 (The Ultimate Kickin' Bass Sound) - Various Artists

Advantages: Loads of Phil Collins songs
Disadvantages: Loads of Phil Collins songs messed up

...An album of remixed Phil Collins tracks performed by r&b and hip hop artists. Risky, seeing as the man himself as churned out classic after classic and as you can imagine it wasnt well received by, well anyone. I did however purchase because i like Phil Collins and i like hip hop & r&b so i took a chance. I should have spent my money on buying that indoor ten pin bowling set instead. Saying that there is a couple of decent tunes on here but as a whole, not the greatest ive spent my money on Tracks Another Day In Paradise - Ray J & Brandy. The single to come off this album was received quite well, not a bad video and the brother sister duet that everyone wanted to hear. An up to date version but not better than the original. You may find me saying that more often than not Sussudio - Ol Dirty Bastard. Shocking. No resemblence... Read review

Advantages: A good mix of songs
Disadvantages: Doesnt help you get through the housework

...A cd thats a couple of years old now but still fun to listen to. I mean this cd says its meant to help you through the housework but I personally dont think it really does,if anything it distracts you,because you just start singing along to all the great tracks this album has to offer, you get caught up in the music and completely lose track of what you were doing - maybe a good thing in a way :-) Housework vol 1 is a double album that has some cracking songs that you just dont seem to hear on the radio anymore such as The Beach Boys - Help Me Rhonda and Don McLeans - American Pie. The songs on this album just make you feel good and really help to lift your spirits,but I honestly think its marketed wrong,this is a feel good album for anyone just not people doing the housework.I dont think the title of the album really represents...

Advantages: A pack with good songs throughout, and at an almost comical price
Disadvantages: Big drum’n’bass packs have a reputation of being big boxes of crud

...brilliant pieces of proper drum'n'bass, some of the beautiful ambient stuff for 'the laydees', and bits that could put most normal dance music to shame, this collection has the kind of quality you would hope for in every track, not just in the first two tracks of each cd. What is kind of surprising is that I have heard of more than just the names on the front, artists such as Unda Pressure, Conspiracy Theory and the Omni-Trio are probably known by a good few people. The pieces by these semi-well-known artists is easily on a par with the tracks from the big boys, not to say that the headline songs aren't quality! SS's Lost In New York being one of my all time favourite tracks, and a couple of the others like Music and 19.5 by Bukem (and peshay) standing out as excellent tracks in their own right. This leaves the total unknowners, people... Read review
