Album Notes
This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by Fatboy Slim and Paul Oakenfold.
Includes liner notes by Calvin Bush.
Pete Tong has an undisputed talent for keeping his finger on the dance music pulse, and he puts that to good effect on this, the first ESSENTIAL SELECTION of the new millennium. The winning formula remains--plenty of variety, records of huge hit potential and grooves to keep you dancing all the way through. Choice cuts abound, but several must be mentioned. The dirty beats of Armand Van Helden's "Koochy," for one, or, on a more techno vibe, Laurent Garnier's magnificent saxophone creation "The Man With The Red Face." On a two step note, the Artful Dodger excels with "Woman Trouble." But hang on, that's only the first disc! The second veers into deeper house and trance territory, and sees Tong letting rip with some more underground numbers. Of course the more popular trance of Chicane and System F hits the spot, but the inclusion of cracking tracks from James Holden, Breeder and Dea-Li is a bonus. A little something for the weekend, perhaps?!
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 - ...An essential definition of 2 classic turntable styles: Slim's juiced-up big beat and Oakenfold's starry-eyed emo-techno...
Rolling Stone (07/20/2000)
...Mr.Cook [begins] with a hard-hitting, body-moving mix of obscure gems and old standbys that run the gamut from hard house to anthemic techno....Oakie smoothes out the mood...with a mix that favors dark progressive house and blissful beats. The invasion continues.
