Notes

CD1 is mixed by Chris Lowe:
"I've chosen a few records to play. Songs about love, friendship, sex, religion, hope and despair. Starting with early 80's electro and italian disco, through rock, gospel and ending with classic Dusty.
Hope you enjoy it.
Peace and love.
— Chris Lowe"

CD2 is mixed by Neil Tennant:
"My idea in compiling this collection was to create a sequence of music for late-night listening, linking electronic, ambiant, classical and pop music. It's the sort of music I enjoy in the couple of hours before sleep.
Thanks to Jon Savage and Michael Bracewell who have introduced me to a few of the artists represented here.
— Neil Tennant"

Rated 5/5

Review by reyez187 Jun 07, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)

This is one of the best compilations I heard in the past years.

Chris Lowe takes it on a tasteful retrospect compiling early 80's electro, italo disco, rock and gospel. Ideal for cruising in that old Porsche 928 or Volvo 480 of yours.

Neil Tennant decided to create a sequence of music for late night listening. Electronic, ambient, french chanson, classical and pop music are blended into something sofisticated and very subtle. This is like drinking a bottle of real exquisite wine in excellent company. This is class without any like and my personal favourite of both cd's. One to treasure and the perfect soundtrack for that handful of special moments that will mark your life within the following decades.

Both gentlemen express their regards to Dusty Springfield by including one track of her each. This is really nice and kinda cool, even for non-Dusty fans.
