The first half broods along but it is rather underwhelming, but the mix picks up like crazy with the Ladytron track and that M83 track which is just straight epic. Everything else after is good too. DIdnt' mind the last track as well.
I think the first half will grow on me, as I didnt' exactly hate it, but overall right now I think the first Involver was better overall from beginning to end. Like it's really good from track 1, all the way to "On my Own"...and lets not forget that amazing mix of Lostep's Burma, or that Petter track. I liked Involver right away from the get go, and the disc as a whole held steadily throughout its duration.
Invol2ver's first half really bogs it down, but I THINK it may grow on me. The second half is really amazing and reminds me of the Sasha that we all used to know. So overall as a single disc, for me right now, the second half is the reason to purchase this, and this is why I believe as a whole the disc doesn't stand up as well to Involver.
I suspect that if it wasn't for the Involver label (and it's massive hype), people would enjoy this cd more
Well there's ALWAYS been hype and expectations with any project Sasha has done. I guess Mixmag didn't do him any favours by naming him "son of God" in the past, but I believe this stigma still affects the guy today.
But seriously, the first half is a bit on that dull side. I know everyone is going on this techno/minimal bandwagan and I know the first half isn't either of those genres. But it still seems like he's on purpose holding himself back too much on tracks.

sasha should try his talents playing accordion
thought the mix started dying as soon as the ladytron hit but whatever its all subjective who cares. IF you think this is "shit" then you need you should probably listen to more edm
ps. where the fuck is Raiban in this thread? lol

ya i caught that mistake also yet i didnt feel like editing. thought people would be competent enough to get at what i was saying.
if that was what you were referring to...
No I was lol'ing at the "you need to listen to more edm" comment. Riight.
honestly tho i rly like u
formatted my comp but i had a nice big pic. was so seksi fafpafpapfapfpa
jenny tho, u cant even appreciate the music played in the tracks? even tho u might not like the sounds
Of course I can appreciate it. But that doesn't mean I automatically enjoy it.
I mean, I also appreciate the manner in which a complex virus like AIDS acts in the body, but would I ENJOY it? Probably not.
What I'm getting at is: you have AIDS.
so why does it suck? because u dont enjoy it? NOOOOOOOOooooooooo
i love aids btw

One of my favourite mixes on the set is between song 3 and 4... love the continuous rolling beat, melodies riding high above them
I do understand how some reviews are saying that this CD does not have a lot of club potential for the first half, however, I don't feel the same way. I would love to jam to some of the tunes he starts out his CD with. I like how he starts the CD out smooth, then transitions with the rolling beat� and straight into the bang�epic highs, to be rounded out nicely at the end. Perfect circle.
Great use of vocal, loops and quirky noises- creeping into a track, then creeping back out as quick as they came in
M83 Couleurs- Amazing track. Hits me like something old Sasha use to play back in the day. Have been wondering what the sample was at the beginning of the Sasha's Creamfields EM...now I know. I love how Sasha weaves the epic high synths back into Eraser (which I am not a huge fan of Sasha's remix of this track).
3 Little Pigs! Wow. Top notch Sasha tunage. Would love for this to come out on vinyl so I can put it with my Emfire collection from the past year. This song will definitely be a sure Sasha hit!
All in all I find Invol2ver to be a perfect addition to my Sasha music library.
