Absolutely a good alternative to the usual Bangin'The Box series.Bad Boy Bill steers away from the commercial sounding supermix and gets a little deep in this one(not exactly like Derrick Carter or Danny Teneglia).Bangin'In London is just a typical but legendary mix performance in front of a massive London crowd for all the non-believers who think Bill is just a studio D.J who relies on computers and a CD mixer.Bill is on of the top 5 live D.J's on the planet!Bad Boy does mix a CD occaisonally into his sets just to pump a little more energy into his sets which is OK but not neccessary to prove he's on top in the industry.Bangin'In London is just like the live sets I've seen here in Bill's hometown of Chicago,even alot of the same slammin'tracks and tricks that he unleashed at a rave in January,with just a little bit of studio enhancements in which makes the quality of this CD stand up to any Bangin'The box. Bill starts out with some high quality,pumpin'disco house and quickly converts into an aggressive ghetto track,then;threads in a jamming funk/house track with a really positive feeling and then gradually brings back the rough ghetto track after the right break creating a splended hard edged/funk/disco house feeling in which pretty much sold me on the CD after 5 minutes.I have'nt really been too sold on any Bill mixes at all since Bangin'The Box 3 in 3/98.In the new CD it is'nt so much the tracks,it's just the way he does it!Bill eventually goes into a little more "clubhead" pleasing tracks with more of an emphasis on high energy like "Here We Go" which I'm not to big on but it's catchy and it will rock house parties and jeep subwoofers all over the world!Bill got a little more serious again with some hard hittin'Chicago house then blew me away when he dropped "Neccesary Evil by Armand Van Helden" track 12.Bill doubles up track 12,busts out with 2 different rough scratches while the track plays using the same 2 records,the unleashes a totally different high pitched scratch in which echoes and fades away into the rough beats of Armand Van Helden,unbelievable! The new mix carries back into some more typical disco/funk house and then more towards the middle of the CD Bill displays a little more diversity with a stomping breakbeat remix of "Bodyrock by Moby" which far better than "Stomp to my Beat" on Bill's last CD,that song was horrible to me!The rest of the new CD is par at best but check the new version of "Moving through your System" by Jack Prongo,it's kind of weird but cool,mellow,a good way to end a CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad Boy Bill never dissapoints!, July 17, 2000

Bad Boy strays away from his hard Chicago House style into more Progressive House that is so popular in London. The first few tracks are "ok" but the rest of the CD will have you jumpin' around all night! I own every one of Bad Boy Bill's CD's and this one is by far the best. Highly recomended

4.0 out of 5 stars Well..., November 17, 2000

This is, of course, typical BBB house. He hits Chicago style, does some booty and then the guessable disco grooves that he's known for. Bad Boy Bill fans will love the album.

One reviewer stated that "if you are looking for progressive house" that you shouldn't look to Bill. Well no kidding. BBB doesn't PLAY progressive. However, neither do Sasha and Digweed. That's called progressive and melodic trance.

Please learn your genres before you go slamming an artist.
