Name: Matthijs Home Page: www.cardamar.com Member Since: Sep 24, 2003 Rank: 20 Rated 529 releases, average: 3.30 Location: Netherlands, Frl. Profile: My first experience with elctronic music was a cassette of Turn up the bass 2. From that moment on I bought nothing but electronic music. First cassettes, later on cd`s and ofcourse 12". Live gigs were like magic to me, even though I had never whitnessed it until I was old enough to visit. At that point, house music already became bigger and bigger. A lot of the magic disappeared. Fortunately there was a really good club nearby me were the best gigs were given. Goa and acid house were the bomb these days. Highlight of that time was a concert by the Acid Junkies. Nowadays, growing older and whitnessing some things happening all over again, I am still looking for that spirit of the good old days. But still, even though everything changes great electronic music is coming out every day.. you just have to look in the right places. Nowadays, I am a big fan of good quality prog/trance, as played by the likes of Markus Schulz, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, etc. | |

Various - House Party VI - The Ultimate Megamix - 25-Sep-03 01:16 AM
This part of the House Party series combined "mellow" and "hardcore" for the second time. Part five only had two songs of hardcore, divided by an intermezzo. On this record there is a very good integration of the two styles present. But it was also the last, because Arcade saw the light and divided the next edition into two cd`s. one mellow and one hardcore. This choice was, in my eyes, against the spirit of house music. It placed the buyer for a choice, am I hardcore? or mellow? It would have been a nice statement if Arcade continued the series in one style, with both elements of hardcore and mellow. But what`s done is done.. I consider part 6 to be pretty good, but Buzz Fuzz and M. Theo were clearly not able to catch the "spirit" of the first 5 parts, easily recognisable in the style of the guys from TCM.
#45 (ramon roelofs) is actually called Loempia EP.
