pretty solid from holden, the mixings very smooth and tracklist is great.
fair bit of techno which i wasnt expecting but the cd's flowed quite nicely.
opener on cd2 rocks

i finished listening to cd one..
one word= winner
this is easily the best compilation put together this year
very intelligent and cd1 midway thru the mix has a chunk full of spirit and soul.
i call it a soulsearching mix....very unique and splendid. like a magic carpet ride...beautiful and intelligently crafted.

What kinda stuff does James Holden mix? I've heard of him but never heard any of his mixes. The track list looks very un-familiar, can anyone tell me what kinda "vibe" and "sound" to expect from this CD?
Thanx

Holden mixes progressive, tech house, and good shit.
Vibe? Different.
Sound? Different.
Seriously, this is on par with FSOL's production albums in the 90's.
I haven't heard a CD this good in quite a while.
He's officially the man.
