Fumiya Tanaka - I Am Not A DJ - 23-Jul-05 02:29 AM
Those who have heard this mix often compare it to the Jeff Mills' "Live at the Liquid Room, Tokyo" mix arguing which mix is better. Personally, I liked this one more for better song arrangment (there are many of the same songs on both mixes and both were made in 1995).
Plus, the sound quality is way better as well (although Jeff recorded his in a club, Fumiya recorded his live at a studio... no digital edits of any sort were done to it though).
Both do a lot of layering and many fancy tricks as well (backspins, etc...) but like I said before, I liked the way Fumiya Tanaka put it all together. I recommend a listen or two if you can get a hold of of this CD.
Thievery Corporation - The Richest Man In Babylon - 25-May-03 09:06 PM
I just got this release the other day. I can't believe how awesome this album is and I enjoy every song that's on it (some more than others). The wide variety of worldy sounds make up some of the most beautiful tracks I've ever heard. The lyrics and the vocals are magical as well. Track 14, with the lady singing, kills me every time...
Nick Warren - Global Underground #024: Reykjavik - 22-May-03 09:36 AM
I haven't heard something this good since GU:13. CD 1 starts with some downtempo/ambient tunes that slowly speed up and work their way to some excellent breakbeat songs. Disc 1 flows perfectly into disc 2. Disc 2 has the more danceable house music that is on the whole disc. Really cool as well but disc 1 is easily my favorite. Warren did say that this would be his last mix comp so enjoy...
Paul Oakenfold - Global Underground 007: New York - 22-May-03 09:16 AM
This is definitely my favorite Oakenfold CD. These songs, and the way they were programed, have always put me in a dreamy state of mind (more with disc 1). This is the kind of CD set that when I put it on, I think of how the music was and I begin to miss it. Some really awesome moments are captured here...
Sandra Collins - Cream - 22-Apr-03 01:09 AM
God I love this CD. It starts off really dark with a nice hard thumping beat that stays throughout the CD. As track 1 finishes, it gets darker and deeper (really deep) until about track 6 or 7. From here on out, the deepness of the CD lets up and brings you into a world of really nice landscapes. The last song is the perfect let go for this CD and really brings a smile to your face. This is a journey I recommend to anyone who is willing to take it.
