Rated 5/5
Review by Josephschembri Dec 12, 2005 (edited over 3 years ago)
For months this release was in my wantlist and finally I managed to get it. And wow! What a release is this! Disc 1 starts very slowly with a couple of downtempo techno-hardcore crossovers which are very experimental indeed. Then as the mix progresses the faster the beat is. We find breaks, industrial sounds, dark sounds as if doom is coming and even a drum & bass sample! Finishes in typical Frenchcore style, yet actually not so fast I can call speedcore. Including also the classic “96 Knights”; this 75 minute mix only artists like Manu Le Malin manage to execute!

Disc 2 provides another 50 minutes of unique music with its 9 original unmixed tracks by Manu collaborating with artists like Lenny Dee, The DJ Producer & DJ Jappo. Again, very experimental hardcore, and not all tracks are proper hardcore. Some track is breaks; some other is extremely downtempo yet surprisingly ass moving with its originality!

Just can’t wait to hear part 1 of this series!
