I also like the first set, but I must say that the 2nd for me is where it is all that. Given the wrap on the first I'll go straight to the 2nd which i believe is a great deal better.

From the opening track of the set, it sets a grinding bass driven progressive tone that is fantastic. Not sure about the Josh Wink but after that the set gets into driving some huge tracks that make this overall one of my top mix compilation CDs in the collection.

Well worth your while if you haven't picked it up yet.
Rated 5/5

I too was not very impressed with the second disc...I felt it started off on the wrong tone. The first three tracks don't fit in there (they make the cd feel like a label promo). They tarnish the 'serious' tone of the comp.

CD1, however.....whoa! CD1 blew me away the very first time I heard it. Ayahuaska ...In my opinion this is the most brilliant track ever made; it seems to mature every few months when I listen to it again. From there Cattaneo proves that mixing can be an art when he glides through 12 other genious tracks. The mixing is coherent. Each track is intelligent and deep-edged.

This compilation is unique and tasteful. I picked it up off the shelf when I was new in the scene. When I heard it I just thought 'what quality music'. Still sends chills down my spine today.
Rated 4/5

Fantastic first half set here, beginning with 'Ayahuaska' is an excellent intro track. 'Scarpia' by Alexander Kowalski is repetitive but provides a very deep bass grove with stirring echoes. Other noteworthy songs include 'Cultural Assertion' and 'Aenema'.

Not too impressed with the second half set from Hernan, but can't go wrong with the Howells track 'Phono Crono'.
