Review:

 

"Everything will be all right...you are in my hands...I am here to protect

you...you have no-where to go..." Bebop (aka Droidlock) gets this show on the

road - Minimal, rich and psychedelic; so the album continues thru this path,

exploring many different styles (trip-hop, house, tribal) but still staying

true to psychedelic tastes.

Many weird filters, samples, sounds, phat beats and crisp production techniques

shine thru on this CD. Only 2 trax from this comp had been released b4 : the

Paps & Tripiatrik trax - but 1st time for these to be available on CD. I am a

big fan of this sound and have enjoyed most releases from the

Yumade/Paps/SAAB/Droidlock crew - it's good to see they are constantly

evolving and are still able to create such wicked sounscapes.

My favourite compilation for the year --every track complementing the next -

not just a random bunch of songs--a real spin-out

The Databass crew are pioneers and educators in space & sound, and are showing

their mastery on how to combine the 2.

9/10

I'm suprised so few have actually heard this CD or just not bothered to review

it. As said above, it's a great compilation, on the twisted side but full of

musical leaps and technical bleeps. I have to agree and say best compilation

for 2001 9.8/10 - (slightly ahead of Solar Seeds) & loses some points for the

final mastering (the sound is great overall) it has some bad moments at the

start of a couple of tracks.

indeed this cd is awesome ..... when i heared it first it didn't realy impress

me , but ..... :) after several listens this cd was growing on me , and once

i played this Winter Session extremely loud and it rulez !!!!! groove power

guaranteed ... and it doen't get bored at all . there are some mastering

mistakes with the outro and intro in some tracks but this is the only negative

aspect ... the coverdesign is nice too , a bit minimalistic but with aesthetic

graphic skills .... good work , highlights are track 4,5,7 and the bonustrack

by Magus .... i'm realy looking forward to hear more. 8,5/10
