Review of Hip Hop Classics (Kiss Presents/Parental Advisory) [PA] - Various Artists

Classic Euphoria = Euphoric.

Advantages: Plenty of Quality Tracks for your Money. Familar famous tracks alongside superb less known tracks.
Disadvantages: Not really for those with short attention spans. Mixing between songs can be lengthy.

Classic Euphoria. Branded mysteriously as a seemingly independant compilation, this album hit the shops in the summer of 2006. While it's cover would let you think otherwise, Classic Euphoria and indeed it's sequels are by the Ministry of Sound, and call upon its vast collection of music rights to some of the most famous trance tracks in the last decade Basic Details Tracks: 47 Approx total runtime: 188 minutes Featured DJs: Variety of Artists Label: Ministry of Sound Other Titles in the Series: Classic Euphoria Level 2, Hardcore Euphoria.
