Rated 5/5

Review by disruptive-influence Aug 18, 2007 (edited over 2 years ago)

This is such a good album...it should be made impossible to rate it anything other than a 5.
Not had a good listen to this for a few years now but for me it still sounds fresh and really well produced even 18 years after its release.
Every track is quality and provides an outstanding example of what British producers were doing with the house and acid sounds of the time.
The album covers all areas, with great Chicago style acid tracks like 'In The Beginning' and 'K9', really good UK deep house in the form of 'I Am Somebody' and 'Rhythm Of Life', the amazingly chilled 'Music Sweet Music' at about 98BPM and my favourite, the chilled acid sounds of 'Tranquility On Phobos'
Not all the music from this era sounds quite as good as it did at the time but this one for me will last forever.
Anyone who has never heard this album before, is in for a treat.
