Thanks, I thought they were talking about another preview. A Part II one.

I have a feeling this will be very, very good.

First CD looks very interesting, 2nd looks like all that gash big room stuff he's been playing, just not a fan.

lol @ anjuna releases

This really needs to come out. Not too keen on cd 2 by the looks of it but I want to hear what he did with the first cd already :/

Posted by maddraver on Feb-15-2009 20:58:

i cant freakin wait!!

Posted by Ted Promo on Feb-24-2009 04:27:

Got my hands on it. As expected, first cd is really good. Definitely my favorite mix of the year thus far, edging out the Commix fabric. Second cd is the boring bosh; still miles better than that dire One + One compilation, however. Maybe if I were still gung-ho about house I'd have liked it, but even then I doubt it would have had any memorable qualities.

In any case, cd 1 makes this entire compilation worth it.

Absolutely agree, the first disc is great from start to finish. The second cd, however, is a letdown for me, only offering some glimpses of interest in the end. Nevertheless, this release has been worth my money for the first disc alone.

Posted by woscar on Feb-24-2009 17:30:

The first disc was brilliantly crafted. I listened today on the ride to work; it was one of the nicest, most relaxed drives I've ever taken. Lovely music from start to finish.

However, I thought the second disc was one of the most painstakingly average mixed CDs I've ever heard. Mixing is flawless but the music is pretty boring and uninspired. Might take a few more listens to get into it, who knows.

Some of you may be interested in this microsite for the album release:

http://renaissance.com/eflyers/zabi...bielalaunch.htm

It is full of free track downloads, a promo mix, a video interview and more from James on his blog.

Posted by Seppuku on Feb-26-2009 17:48:

Ahh, might need to pick this up later this week. I had a feeling the first disk would be excellent, good to hear people think it is.

Posted by maddraver on Feb-26-2009 19:48:

both cds are excellent! of course everyone will like the first disc better. that style of music reaches a broader audience.also, people are not always in the mood for ravemuzik. i think james did a great job!
