Advantages: Retro vibe, summer tunes, good mixture of style, very 'of the moment' Disadvantages: Some tracks clearly designed for commercial popularity
This is an excellent album, definately of its time! House music has become popular in many clubs over the past 12 months, and this album serves to further than popularity. Although the majority of house music has had a dance/deep and dirty edge to it, this album is very light and funky. It has a major 80's feel to it, very retro and cool, definately a summer album. My personal favourites are tracks 3 & 5, neither very manly tracks, but thats the ... ...very innovative work over the past 10 years, and this album has to be one of his best to date. Some big name collaberations too, such as 'Touch your toes' ft Big Joe. However, this track didnt seem to get as much air time and notice as 'NYC beat', which i feel is obviously one of the more mainstream aiming tracks of the album.
Overall a very good piece of work, i love it and have listened to it over and over again, as will you!! ...
