Elevate Vol.2 (Mixed By Phil York And Kevin Energy) - Various Artists

Advantages: great mix
Disadvantages: none

.... He was the buzz name for any artist looking for a cool remix joining the ranks of fellow American DJs such as Todd Terry, Roger Sanchez and Erick Morillo. The biggest challenge facing Armand Van Helden for this mix cd was not capturing the NY vibe but it was getting the clearance for the tracks. For DJs this can be such a pain, having to get legal permission to use an artists work on the cd, but it seems to have worked just fine as he's pulled out some of the big guns for this mix. Armand Van Helden gets his mix off to a start by taking time out at the beginning to talk to the listener, a bit unusual. But over a funky electro track he talks in his husky New York accent about what exactly the cd is about. It's only brief but it's great see what he was thinking for this mix. Declaring "Let's get back to that good feeling vibe... Read review

Advantages: Much harder that Vol 1, Anne Savage really shows she can do it!
Disadvantages: There has to be some disadvantages but im not making any!

...Anne Savage makes a come back...crank the bass up high and enjoy!This has to be one of my favourite albums by Euphoria and always will be! It's much harder & faster than Frantics Vol 1. remixs are totally different from the other albums, which make it one of the best! Hard house fans will love this, and you'll instantly get hooked and captivated into choice of mixes this is a must by album! Cd 1 (Future Frantic) certainly gets you in the mood! With tunes like "Music is the drug", Savage really experimented with this cd and her mixes worked to a great standard! Alot of people really like this cd and i can see why! Cd 3, again, has to be my favourite, (Classic Bounce) and boy is it bouncy! Andy Whitby really wow'ed everyone with his mixes and left evryone wanting more of his bouncy tracks! "systemsux", "Fantasic thing", "Feel so good... Read review

Advantages: Great variety, Awesome songs, Superior Mixing by Andy C!
Disadvantages: Wish it was longer!!

...Having always been an Andy C fan, I got this CD as soon as I heard about it and saw that it had received several awards which made me even more excited! The variety of tracks found on the two CDs is amazing! 29 tracks on the first CD and 14 on the 2nd. Eventhough the tracks vary so much, they way they are mixed together by Andy C just makes the whole CD flow along into one long pleasurable experience! I actually took this cd to my friends in the states to listen on the long drives there and they listen to country and rock.. but after I played this CD we were listening to it over and over on the long drives! I gotta say, fantastic road music, makes the drive go by quickly. Some amazing songs on the 1st CD including: Logitics - Together DJ Fresh - Submarines Subfocus - X-Ray Ed Rush - Bacteria Calyx - Headhunter Future... Read review
