Notes
Comes in a metal case with a cardboard outer sleeve.
"Initially, I wanted to do the mix in an empty Fabric, but that wasn't possible. I did have Fabric in mind when I made the mix, but because I was doing it in my studio and it's a new facility, there was quite a lot of experimenting.
I wanted to do a hi-tech, hyper mix you could listen to in the car or a café or a banging club. I felt I could do something different, especially by adding claps, sounds and my own vocals.
A real party mix."
- Carl Craig
Track 9 artist is listed as Blaze Presents UDA Featuring Barbara Tucker on the packaging.

I find this a difficult cd to judge: track choice is excellent and original. As always, the mixing is flawless too. Overall it's a very funky and also chilled out cd to me. Which is exactly where I keep wondering: the voice-over thing that Carl Craig does is cool, but somehow I cannot figure out why he's 'shouting' into the mike...the tempo doesn't really seem to pick up, there's no fat beats coming in or tough break. I just can't imagine freaking out to such a laid back mix!
One of the best fabric mixes so far..
Opening using the "whisper song" is genius..
A lot of the tracks Craig selected are very rythmically simple, but the mix is sure to get you moving.

This cd is awesome, one of the best in the Fabric series (which i am a huge fan of) in my opinion. The mixing is great, the mix bounces along and the vocals, hand claps, and laughing that Carl Craig adds throughout the mix give it a feel unlike any other mix cd. The track selection is absolutely superb - there is not a single weak track on the cd. I knew that this cd would be good, from one of my favorite djs, but my already high expectations were completely blown away upon first listening to it. Easily the best mix cd of the year for me, in fact, one of the best i think i have ever heard.
