Ok so people are saying this has some decent tunes on..... but more importantly I need to know before buying, are the sleeve notes written by Dom Phillips and his 'random adjective generator' ?!?!?!?
Disc one has great tracks on it BUT the mixing is so uninspired in places (just quick blends, tracks not fitting together...) it's disappointing. Could have been a great mix if he had put some more effort into the mixing imo. Have not listened to disc 2 yet.
Just finished listening to CD 1 and I agree with this. While some of the tracks are really nice the mixing at parts is sub-par specially in the age of computer mixing. I could look past this since I was enjoying the mix but the last 15-20 minutes are just a pile of cheese put on top of each other except for the last track "The Wheel" by SOHN which I really like.
I give it 2.5 out of 5 would have been 3.5 if it wasn't for those last 20 min
CD 2 is like we're used to from other GU instances much more dance floor orientated. The mixing on it is actually good and I enjoyed the mix from start to finish. Will give CD 1 a couple of more listens before I write it completely off.
All in all I give this release a 3/5 solid but nothing spectacular.
