Review by Fronhornet Sep 22, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)
The Hacker brings together some of the best electro around in 2001 into one DJ mix. Stand out tracks are Rude 66 My 909, Adult. Hand to phone, Silver locusts A Barren garden, and a personal favourite of mine Tender Taming by Perspects. Even better he finishes up with Broken mirror which never fails to get me singing along. Well worth it if you can find it.
Rated 5/5

This album is a great mix CD from The Hacker. Yeah, he spices things up just enough to keep things kooky, interesting and fun. But then he also shows the dramatic side of the album's electro genre at just the right moments. Anyway, it's clear that The Hacker's skills as a musician are on show here. Listen up.

Overall, though, I guess you could say that The Hacker starts this mix at a climax, works down from there, and then finishes with a climax again (although the latter more subtler than to begin with). Sure, I'll be honest and say I've only listened to this album about forty to fifty times. But I still know it's worth a spin or two. Personal favourites for me include Scientist by Dopplereffekt, Broken Mirror by Random Factor, Anthem by Artist Unknown, Visualise by The Advent, Fadin Away (Dima Remix) by The Hacker, and Hand To Phone by Adult.

So, the bottom line is that this CD won't disappoint. And LSD freaks will like it too (not speaking from recent experience). It's a 5/5 from me, Margaret.
