Advantages: If you want a very generic mix CD this could be for you. Disadvantages: Many tracks are either remixes of commerical hits, or at least 4 years old.
Having long been a fan of the Hed Kandi brand, and of funky house music I decided to reluctantly purchase 'The Mix 2009'. My reluctance came from reading the tracklisting on the back of the Album - Shakedown 'At Night', X-Press 2 'Lazy' Afro Medusa 'Pasilda' and others are all relatively old tracks. If the theme of this album had been similar to the Hed Kandi classics CD in 2006 it would be understandable - but this edition professed to be 'The Mix 2009'. On previous outings the main two CD's always featured the biggest tracks of the year and nothing else - a sort of House Music annual. The 'Chill-out/Wind-Down' themed third CD each time had previously been the only disc to feature 'classic house'. The Mix 2009 certainly isn't and if a general overview of 2009 in house music is what you're after then perhaps it would be better to look ...
Advantages: packed full of hits, some lesser known, as well as a CD of new anthems in the making Disadvantages: Heard them all before? Possibly! But we still love them
new to trance, some may be, or if you are looking for a walk down memory lane and haven't bought one of these albums in a few years you may just enjoy what Dave has blended together. The albums saving grace is CD 3 which does have a more up-to-date selection of club tracks for your aural enjoyment.
So how does it breakdown? As i've said briefly, CD's 1 and 2 are made up of staple classic tracks from seminal trance artists such as Matt Darey, Chicane, Angelli & Nelson, Paul Van Dyk, Faithless, the list goes on! CD 3 brings us bang into 2009, or well more technically some of the tracks that were big towards the latter end of 2008. It would be unfair to judge this CD on the lack of real upfront 2009 tracks, having only been released 3 months into a new year.
For me personally, out of the 2 classic CD's, the second has to take all ...
Advantages: Songs have all charted at some point Disadvantages: Songs have all charted at some point
This is my first review on music, so if anyone has any comments on how I might improve the review they would be more than welcome.
Manumission
The Ibiza Classics Collection.
Presentation:
It's a collection of 3 CD's (48 Tracks) that come in individual jewel cases within a cardboard sleeve. Personally I always end up throwing the sleeve away and the jewel cases are particularly thin and don't fit too well in stands etc. The artwork is pretty basic just a large M with what appears to be a collage of Manumission posters within it, on a white background. Each CD and the sleeve has the same artwork. The individual cases only list the songs there is a separate sleeve that lists the date of release, producers etc.. This is slightly annoying if you do not wish to keep the cardboard sleeve as it will not fit into the CD cases.
