I must confess, I'm not usually a big fan of dance music. There's a time and a place for every thing - dance music shares its particular timeslot with kebabs, Jack Daniels and paying a pound to hang up your coat.

That said, this album surprised me. Generally, if someone says "oh, listen to this..." and I find it's a Ministry of Sound release, I back away - outside of its natural habitat, I find dance music very dull to listen to, and most of the groups/artists producing it don't come across as talented - Watergate, for instance. Or Alice Deejay.

Somehow I was persuaded to listen to this album - on a long car journey, I think - and was hooked. I bought it the next day.

The tracks aren't consistent throughout, but there are some real gems on here. And if you don't listen too closely, the general ambience this album creates is fantastic.

The titles of the two discs say infinitely more than any amount of description from me, so I'l leave you with them:
Disc One - Blissful Beats
Disc Two - Chilled-Out House

What more could anybody reasonably require?

PS Don't answer that one!
