I bought this cd one day after having a browse through a high street music shop. I came across it and started having a browse of the tunes on the cd. As a listener/dj of drum and bass, i recognised a few of these tunes and thought why not.
There are a lot of timeless tunes all mixed by Goldie. Notice i say mixed, so if you are expecting the tunes to be played on their own, unmixed, in their original state then this is not for you. It is recorded as a constant mix.
This cd is mainly more down tempo, more mellow drum and bass. So if you are expecting dirty tunes or grime, then again, this is not for you. Although saying this, this cd does feature Krust - Warhead, which as people into drum and bass will know, is a grimey tune.
Anyway, I can appreciate this cd, although not mixed as well as a lot of mixes i have heard, it is a good cd. A lot of the drops are spot on. For example I really like when Goldie mixes Barcelona by D.Kay & Epsilon/Stamina MC into Brown Paper Bag by Roni Size.
Here is the track listings of both cds:
Disc: 1 1. Inner City Life - Goldie & The Metalheadz 2. Terminator - Rufige Kru 3. Calling Card - Spirit 4. Atlantis (I Need You) - LTJ Bukem 5. Warhead - Krust 6. Circles - Adam F 7. LK (Carolina Carol Bela) - DJ Marky & XRS/Stamina MC 8. Midnight - Un-Cut 9. Watching Windows - Roni Size 10. Valley Of The Shadows - Origin Unknown 11. Sleepwalk - Matrix 12. Brown Paper Bag - Roni Size & Reprazent 13. Barcelona - D.Kay & Epsilon/Stamina MC 14. Clear Skyz - DJ Die 15. Up All Night - John B 16. True Romance - D Bridge 17. Ghost People - Influx UK 18. Messiah - Konflict 19. Kemistry - Doc Scott
Disc: 2 1. Satellite Song - Commix 2. Deadline - Digital 3. Shadow Boxing - Nasty Habits 4. Piper - Johnny L 5. Nine - Bad Company 6. We R The Ones - Klute 7. Metropolis - Adam F 8. Pulp Fiction - Reece, Alex 9. Down Under - Un-Cut 10. Digital Spirit - Phantom Force 11. Babylon - Splash 12. True Stories - Krust 13. Drop Bear - Die 14. Bambaata - Shy FX 15. Silver Blade - Dillinja 16. Vault - Pendulum 17. Atlantis - Moving Fusion 18. Casino Royale - DJ Zinc 19. Universe - Marcus Intalex 20. Tuning - D.Kay & DJ Lee 21. Dead Ringer - Calyx & Gridlock
I'll be completely honest, a lot of the songs on this cd, i hadn't heard before buying this cd but i can guarantee you, they are all worth a listen. They are all classic tunes from 1996-2006. All the tunes that have been killed at drum and bass nights all over the world in the last ten years.
I think the second cd is better overall, mainly between tracks 13 and 18, all the tracks just flow in together and they are all very well produced tunes. Proper listenable at any time.
I don't regret buying this cd, it was definately worth the tenner i spent on it.
Lots of timeless tunes, and i haven't stopped listening to the cd in my car yet.
