I recall that the one element of his programming which differentiated him from his Prog. peers was a healthy dose of funk in his tracklistings.

This is less a case with him nowadays, but he certainly seemed to have an ear for it in the past.

I did enjoy both discs... both have their dull moments but they have some nice peaks as well... overall I'm buying it, I liked it.

GU012 was absolutely brilliant IMO, and since then he's been a bit poor which is probably just that I don't really like what he plays anymore. The only track on Masters 7 that made me think 'this is wicked' was Slacker - Memory Man.

Listened to this on my way to work today, bland as. I'm completely bored of this type of music now, I'm waiting for dance music to go more 'maximal' again

... yep! CD1 was god-awful, and CD2 was decent, but that's not saying much. really, really sick of this sound. progress already...

Really liking this sequence on CD1:

06. Gui Boratto - Mr. Decay (Robert Babicz Universum Disco Mix)
07. Stel - Godthab
08. Christian Fischer - Karatschai Lake

After listening to both discs, I'd give it a 6/10. Nothing really caught my attention, w/ the exception of the Christian Fischer and Solomun tracks. Massive tracks.
