Pentatonik - Anthology - 16-Jun-08 05:50 PM
Very beautiful artwork, OK - Totally uninteresting music, not OK. Maybe it sounded good to someone in the mid 90s but to me its sounds totally dated and like a poor mans early Orbital. Maybe it approaches decent in parts, but there are no full enjoyable tracks. The fact that disc 3 got duplicated on disc 4 in spite of artwork doesnt impress either. Even if I was spared from further misery, there could have been a good track on disc 4, apart from "Real" (actually an intriguing track as a filler) that was featured on Trance Europe Express 2.
In short - this record is beyond boredom. Avoid.
Kylie* - 2 Hearts - 19-Nov-07 11:26 AM
The original version starts off OK, but by the annoying backing "whoos" of the chorus its all over - very disappointing. Mr. Braxe is not able to steer clear of the original and the result is weak if still an improvement. A total contrast and happy surprise awaits on the flip, where the Studio guys deliver a slow, sharp-witted spannish guitar spangled dub (with added mandolins!) that makes total sense of Kylies vocals and sounds so fresh that its hard to believe that its even related to the sad original. Pure perfection. ...The picture disc itself? What!? Could she be more tantalizing?
Solar Quest - A+B = C In D# - 07-Jul-07 03:25 PM
Blasting Goa Acid in an Old Skool style - the A side stands and deliver! The soothing strings/voice sound that accompany this journey have been given a full tranquil and meditative side of their own, rolling like waves which, quite understandable, is a total contrast to the full-on A side. Feast and relaxation - Enjoy!
Art Of Noise* - The Seduction Of Claude Debussy - 18-Feb-07 06:47 AM
This is just a very bad and boring release and has nothing of the vigour, joy, intelligence, playfullness or any other positive adjective that I normally connect with the Art Of Noise. The incarnation of nothing. Whoever participated here gets no respect for this total waste of time. Utter disgrace.

Son Kite - Yetto Come! / Pathfinder - 12-Nov-06 11:55 PM
Then Son Kites and K.A.B. team up to do a prog trancer - slightly spiked with an uplifting touch - a bit too safe for my liking, but still enjoyable. B sees K.A.B. strolling on his own deep into dreamy and almost feverish minimalistic territory. The drum pattern is soft and hypnotic and the slow surging cymbal-like sounds gives guidance as the ride-cymbal tinkles along. I firmly believe this "hidden track" would mesmerize quite a few if they were to stumble upon it. A master piece.
