Rated 4/5
Review by Bitshifter Nov 19, 2008
Finally a refreshment from fabric. Ever since fabric 29 (Tiefschwarz) I've been waiting for something good to come from fabric (excluding the Fabriclive series) and it finally came. A funky-groovy mix by the metro guys (highlights for me are Barbara Norris's Heavy Hitter, Voyage's Souvenirs and Open Mind by Jean Luc Ponty). I must admit I have not heard any of the tracks before listening to this compilation but was very relieved with the outcome. I'm already foreseeing another low, monotonic, minimal mix in the future by John Tejada in fabric 44, but at least for now I can enjoy this.
Thank you Metro Area!
