Mixtress

CD-Charts > Music > Big Beat
by: DJ Baby Anne

Release Date October 05, 2004
If you like Orlando style break beats, this is the CD you've been craving. This high energy compilation mixed by Florida's "Bass Queen" made me want to jump out of my seat & start dancing. It's got the drum & bass feel only a central Florida Dj can deliver. Words can't explain how I felt after listening to this. It's like having an ear gasm!

Here Comes Tomorrow

CD-Charts > Music > Big Beat
by: Ursula 1000

Release Date March 21, 2006
I used to listen to punk and heavy metal while on road trips. Then I got married and had some kids. Sadly, none of the rest of them like to listen to punk or heavy metal. But fortunately I found URSULA! On a recent road trip, we must have listened to this CD about 10 times in a row. It got a little old in places (there was one track that we'd skip each time it came up), but you'll find that with anything. I give it a hearty two thumbs up!

Better Living Through Chemistry

CD-Charts > Music > Big Beat
by: Fatboy Slim

Release Date September 23, 1997
This is Fatboy Slim's first american debut, before he made it big. It's a good solid techo/dance album and can make anybody move around at your next party. It's full of samples and funky beats.

Since I Left You

CD-Charts > Music > Big Beat
by: The Avalanches

Release Date July 13, 2004
It's an injustice that 8 years have now past, and the Avalanches have yet to release a follow-up to Since I Left You. As for why? Nobody knows. However, when artists set the bar so high, the pressure to re-create an audible masterpiece can be overwhelming.
The mash-up that is Since I Left You is unique, fresh and unattainable.

Their debut full-length release is nothing like any of their earlier EPs. People that are familiar with their earlier efforts might not warm-up to Since I Left You at first. If given a chance, it will infect you and end up as a staple of your musical diet.

This album exposes the enormous simplicities that are rampant within the electronic genre [Daft Punk to Norman Cook]. Since I Left You is the "Paul's Boutique" ... Read More:

Blade Trinity

CD-Charts > Music > Big Beat
by: Various Artists

Release Date November 23, 2004
Contains some great tracks, especially buy one of my favorite groups, The Crystal Method. Only problem, two of the songs are labeled wrong. Tracks 8 and 11's artist/titles are switched. Track 11, falsly labeled as Manchild's 'Hardwax', should be obvious, seeing as how it says 'This blood...' in the lyrics.

Just thought I should bring this to your attention. The song 'Hardwax' can be found on Manchild's album 'Untied States', which is great. Check it out.

Mushroom Jazz, Vol. 2

CD-Charts > Music > Big Beat
by: Mark Farina

Release Date November 03, 1998
A lot of high praise for this second installment of Farina's infamous Mushroom Jazz series. I agree with all the notions that it is very smooth, but Mushroom Jazz, Vol. 2 is at best, an average compilation overall. There are not any dreadful tracks but on the other hand, the album features only mediocre acid jazz tracks.

A very novel and interesting choice on how Farina choses to mix this compilation, but all its high praise stops there for me. A nice album to fall asleep to or for winding down, but there are much better downtempo acid jazz albums out there that feature much more interesting tracks.

3/5 stars

Dead Cities

CD-Charts > Music > Big Beat
by: The Future Sound of London

Release Date October 29, 1996
This is The best FSOL project in my opinion. I like everything they do but this takes all they had done before and added a whole new level to electronic music. So starkly beautiful and always grooving. Good concept. Great Album.
