 Good Underground "Acid" Mix February 11, 2004
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Carl Cox is Awesome. He picks good vinyl to spin, as he does for this 2-disk CD set. This is not Carl Cox at his best. He has made better song selections than this, but two steps down from the top of the ladder is still "up there". I would recommend this CD set; it has a good underground "acid" sound to it, and is way better than most other techno/house that has been put to disk.
This was done when he was legend... December 29, 2003

Cox was at the height of his mixing with this album and he probably ended up with the best tour of his career with the F.A.C.T 2 album and went on perform at sell-out gigs. THIS IS THE BEST COX ALBUM by far. He has not really been the same since but THIS is the album that you want to hear if you are looking for Cox at his techno best.
 really like disc 2 June 26, 2002

I really like the mad, trance feel of this techno mix on disc 2. While disc 1 is a sadistic torture akin to some crazy German techno song that repeats the word "dildo" every beat in every measure, disc 2 induces one to just spaz out to a true mix of an odd collection of techno. I can see how its kinda awkward but not so much. Prolly the chap uses not-ready-to-be-mixed songs, and techno songs on vinyl at that - not some drawn out, trance computer file. And have you thought of odd-time signatures? he probably uses them here. Anyways, the set has a nice tribal evolution like some fantastic hula luau of hallucinogenic fire and tiki gods demanding your reverence.I gave it a 2 cuz disc 1 is just aweful and disc 2 is great so it averages out.
 Some good -- even great -- tracks, but... June 26, 2000

I kept reading things that said, basically, Carl Cox is the greatest techno DJ in the world. So I had to buy this album.I just don't see where the acclaim comes from. The guy throws down some fat wax, for sure (at least on disc one). But the transitions from track to track are pretty consistently ragged. If I were a club owner, and some kid off the streets gave me this as a demo disk, I doubt he'd get the gig, because the beat matching just doesn't cut it; the mixes consistently strain to stay in sync. If this were a live set, I could understand. But the liner notes say that he cooked the FACT 2 collection up in a studio. I just can't imagine putting out a CD that isn't perfect if you're not trying to record a live set. And it ain't perfect. If somebody told you that Carl Cox is the best techno DJ in the world, and you're looking for evidence, look elsewhere.

Crazy Acid house. Dj HMC - LSD, is incredible. Check it out. Not the most melodic stuff ever, just full of sounds. A very interesting selection. Are you there?
