OK, Claude is my all time favorite techno DJ - I mean NO ONE even comes close in my opinion except for maybe Mills, but it's hard to compare them because they have different styles... I've got a soundboard of Claude in Vienna at "Liquid", and it is absolutely off the hook!

The basic jist of this CD is: play two copies of every single record, bounce the beats around. Problem is, I don't really think the track selection is that superlative. The energy kinda stays the same the whole way throughout. Still, if you have more than a passing interest in DJing, you need to pick this up to at least realize how bad you probably are. These are almost like mini-remixes... my personal favorite is how he creates his own buildups out of two copies of the record, making the beats go in double time and then fading the doubles so to eliminate the beat and then kicking back the single 909 kick again... best exemplified on the Surgeon cut, for which he should win some sorta DJ award...

Absolutely Crazy. This is the album that sold Detroit techno to me. The swinging bass beat from M5 by maurizio to the intensity that is Badger Bite make this album a journey through all influences and past.

Good kick-ass techno! Other k7 compilations pale compared to this one!
You know it`s good when all your friends who know nothing about electronic music say ``what the hell is that crap!?``
