bosstrabs Burridge’s NuBreed - Disc 2 (especially when Patricia Never Leaves The House drops, and thereafter) is much better than Disc 1.
Homegrove Sander Kleinenberg’s NuBreed (and GU 006) have to be top 5 most glaring examples where I almost never listen to the disc 2. Never thought about this, but seems so obvious now. Can’t think of one mix CD where I like disc 2 better than disc 1. Pappa’s NuBreed maybe.
Amps Homegrove Considering how much people bang on about John and the vortex, disk two of 006 should be getting rinsed, it’s basically proto vortex.
hugopal zackster The van Bellen mix of Love Me Too is probably my single favorite prog trance tune. The US version of that comp doesn’t have the Fortier mix of The Silence on it, so it goes right from Belfunk to Love Me Too which is one of my favorite mixed cd transitions. Completely storming. Agree with that. The Van Bellen mix of ‘I Know You Love Me Too’ is near the top for me as well.
Christian also going to through in lee burridges 24-7. this certainly got more plays, just for kenny hawkes play the game and agent 001
ScottBailey Amps wouldn’t call CD2 vortex music. CD1 on the other hand is pure vortex! Dark, chuggy and tribal. All the ingredients for a good vortexing. CD2 is pedal to the metal, fist pumping and touching on trance. Bit too much for my liking.
Amps ScottBailey Vortex is when John is at his most techno, and the second half of disk two is him at his most techno at the time. And I caveated it with ‘proto vortex’. Don’t fuck with me on this, I will die on this hill.
Smallman1 On the basis I haven’t heard it an a while, I’ve just hit play on Sydney CD1. Hold tight for feedback!
Wally Never got on with CD1 - can appreciate why other people like it but it’s just not my cup of tea. CD2 however is amazing.
Wally Holden’s Balance? Disc 1 is mint but it’s arguable that Disc 2 is better. Still boggles my mind that he needed a bridge track from Hayling to Lifeformation so just knocked out The Wheel like it was no big thing.
Wally Smallman1 Not sure your remaining flimsy prog credentials can take a broadside of that magnitude mate.
