more please... November 11, 2007 William Hage (UK) I totally agree with Guy Jamieson's very fair critique of the two disk set.
I'm really quite attached to this mix set, it's touched a nerve with me, something about the combination of obviously commercial "charting" tracks such as Mason vs Princess and Bootyluv, with the undiscovered stuff like the Vandalism Unreleased Mix of the Freakz track.
There is a definite Trance element to Electro House, and I know it's largely irrelevant to most of the people who will buy this set, but the weaving of three or four tracks together with a common feel and the ability to make each track feel like it's supposed to run into the next is quite special. Together with the basic shamanic effort of trance music, it's ace.
Disc 2 track 10 (Heartbeats) running to the end of The Drill by The Drill is just such a section. You could drop these 4 tracks in any club in the world and have the best DJs and, more importantly, the entire room eating out of your hand. It's a journey, lose yourself in it. Faster, more.
And if that last sentance makes you just cringe, then don't worry about us trance/electro junkies who dream of being back on Anjuna Beach and buy the album for a great tour of the genre in 2007.
Oh and Guy, I thought the inclusion of Kernkraft 400 right at the end was too cool. It's saying "Look! There was a glimpse Electro House way back in 1999! See how cool it sounds even now!" Or maybe I'm nuts.
Super! August 14, 2007 Ms. O. L. Dixon (UK) I bought this CD when it originally came out, which was rather a while ago now. However, I would still recommend buying it, even now, as pretty much all the songs on it are decent. Also, I noticed that, to begin with, I hadn't heard many of the songs which featured on it apart from the first few, but after a couple of months, all the other songs from the 2 cds kept emerging in the charts as well as in the clubs. Therefore, I believe it to be a great predictor of the new up and coming songs!
Great if you're into the non-chavy side of club music!
mixed bag April 27, 2007 J. Stevens (London, UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I don't normally buy these compilation CDs as you end up with lots of tracks you already have, but when I got this, I was quite pleased to discover several new songs I hadn't heard. Although this may not be the case now that it has been ut for a while. This CD is definitely worth buying if you are into funky/electro house.. but its not the best. The first CD has all the tracks you have probably heard, and some you might not have and is quite upbeat. Proper Education, Perfect and Put your hands up are the style here.. then you have the second cd which is a bit darker and has more tracks you won't have heard on the radio or telly..It is good but was a bit slow going for me personally, actually strayed into the realms of breaks more than house I think. All in all though, a good mix, and a pretty conclusive electro house cd.
More Hit than Miss March 3, 2007 Guy Jamieson 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Ministry of Sound have sorted out fans of the genre with a convenient CD for when you just can't be bothered to make itunes playlists. It's very much the compilation that you might have expected them to make, and the genre (still somewhat in it's infancy) has limitations as far as collecting songs together goes. Either you put together tracks which serious clubbers will adore (ZYX's Electro House 2007 is more in this vein) or you make something aimed more at the mainstream.
This is more the latter, as evident on disc 1 by the inclusion of tracks such as Mason/Princess Superstar's 'Perfect Exceeder', Sharam's 'P.A.T.T.', Booty Luv's 'Boogie2Nite' and Eric Prydz's Pink Floyd re-hash 'Proper Education'. Also featured on this disc are a couple of tracks which I actually have to skip, and which Ministry have clearly included to attract more mainstream clubbers to this album - by this I mean the offerings from Fedde Le Grand and David Guetta/The Egg. Don't get me wrong, I loved both these tracks when I first heard them, and played them to death myself, but they really are getting tired.
'Elektro' by Outwork feat. MC/Mr. Gee may also feel overplayed if you're an avid clubber, ditto Alex Gaudino/Enur's Destination Calabria - but it's still an absolute dancefloor grenade, and personally one of the feel-good higlights of this disc! But the real gems on disc 1 are up-and-coming musical genius Danny Freakazoid's offerings (he's also half of the Freakx Brothers), Teken and Tension. Teken is a prime example of how this genre can keep the filthy analogue sound and still be infectiously funky. The last seven tracks very much redeem what starts off as a very ministry-style radioish compilation.
Disc 2 is less commercially-focused, and a nice collection of some quality tunes from - unfortunately - the last couple of years. Dissapointing to realise I already had a lot of these tracks, and that some are a bit old (but ageing well!) such as Roman Flugel's still-fantastic 'Geht's Noch?', and the Rex the Dog remix of The Knife's 'Heartbeats'. Booka Shade's 'In White Rooms' is a real grower, and 'Discopolis' and 'A bit patchy' are both proper anthems. Sander Kleinenberg's 'This is miami' is a kitsch-but-corking track, great for window-down traffic nodding.
Still, the stand-out track of disc 2 has to be Alter Ego's 'Rocker', which is a perfect lesson in how dance music can tease a crowd, and absolutely explodes at 2mins 30 - although it has competition from the thunderously good 'Rushing'.
Unfortunately inclusions on this disc such as Boys Noize's mix of Bloc Party's 'Banquet' (fine in an electro-indie student night, but jarringly out of place here) and Zombie Nation's 'Kernkraft 400' (laughably out of date, even if it is a 'new' mix) really let this down toward the end.
Overall, this album's not bad - if you're new to the genre then it features a lot of tracks which you really should own. If you're not, then you may well have much of this already, and could be irritated by old or overplayed tracks. Still I do keep putting this back in the cd player, as the good tracks are very much worth the skipping of the bad.
With a genre like this, you'll run the risk of either alienating the new fans or boring the existing ones, and Ministry have yet again hashed this one a bit. But there's not much else available compilation-wise for us electro fans, so still a worthwhile purchase.
