and now its all hail and peace, although half of the cd is old music already, and overplayed by the likes of above & beyond and such.
Doesnt matter though as to me it looks pretty good, but it irritates me that if a top 10 DJ would release an album like this it would be labelled as commercial cow milking bla this bla that, and now its all good. |
armin's CDs often get flamed because they compress four times as many tracks on a single CD as Steve has put out on a double disc compilation ( at least the ASOT series, i'm not even talking about universal religion). There's no sense of flow, just constant transitioning and mashing. Also, Armin has a weekly show that plays all of the tracks that end up on his CD, so the CD is really no surprise when it comes out - we all already know what's going to be on them. Steve's track selection is more of a surprise. Granted, some of the tracks on his compilation have been around for a while but it's still interesting to see what kind of stuff he picks for the tracklist. With Armin's mixed compilations, you know whats' going to be on them months ahead.
