Awene

I felt i had to comment on this cd after listening to it for the second time this morning - initially i gave it a 5/5 rating. It's mixed by Damian Lazarus and Matthew Styles without mentioning if they both did a disc each or all of it together, but i'd hazard a guess and say Mr Lazarus probably mixed the first disc which is very much the sound of now - what will it be next year i wonder. The sound of 2006 i'm referring to is that whole german minimal sound, great for a sweaty basement and all, very well-produced crisp tracks that you seem to forget five minutes after hearing them, all smoothly gliding into one another and forming a rather pleasant and danceable mix. However, the highlight for me (and the only tune that isn't really a minimal techno tune) would have to be the last track R:AX 'Opium Den (Part V)' a mid-paced melancholy electro track with a bassline / melody combination that nods to the past - both chicago house and italo disco - but is very futuristic at the same time. The second disc starts of in a similiar style after the brief intro with the crunching technoid sounds of Naum then delves into abstract breaks (Four Tet), folky ambient weirdness (Position Normal) amazingly chunky electro with jazzy keys (Trickski) experimental hip-hop (Anaerobic Robots) and by track 7 we are back to the funky tech-house music of John Tejada. Now don't misinterpret me here, i like most of these songs, its just that mixing is totally non existant and the order of the tracks makes no sense whatsoever - i have nothing against being eclectic, just check out my collection for proof. Eclectic and well mixed is fantastic if u can pull it off. The remainder of the cd is a similarly mismatched collection of music that i either love or hate - Moonstarr's brilliantly titled 'Detriot' being an extremely powerful homeage to the Motor City pioneers. It just sounds like someone with a very broad tastes pressed shuffle on their ipod and recorded it. Despite this its still an enjoyable listen, but when i read "Mixed By.." in the title i expect to hear some actual mixing not an unmixed set by a someone bordering on schizophrenic in their ability to make a tracklisting flow cohesively.
