Messy album of classics ~~"Back to the Old Skool - Ibiza Anthems"

Back to the Old Skool - Ibiza Anthems

 

 Messy album of classics2004-03-15
There is no doubt to the 'classic' status of the tracks on this album. They are all memorable and some are still played in clubs today. It is becoming a bit of a washout though since there are zillions of compilations just like this on the market. If you have one of the classic compilations you have them all! Each of these compilations have the majority of the same tracks on them.
Judging on its own merits this compilation is a bit of a mare. The mixing is sporadic in timing and quality. For instance the mixing between Needin U and Dreamer is very good, but other mixes are 'just press stop on one and start on the other at the same time' mixing. Some of the editing is not particularly good either. The cutting of Darude- Sandstorm is a particular howler. The album maintains a fast pace but just feels rushed and unloved. There are better quality albums out there. Try the Very Best Of Euphoria or Jules' Trance Nation 3CD album with the classics on. If house is more your bag there is better in that department too. This CD takes the very best songs and turns them into a very average mish mash. If you are looking for a classics compilation then this would be an option, but it would be buying a beefburger when there are steaks around.
