Editorial Reviews

From the Artist

"The purpose of a mix CD and any album is to create a journey – Fear and Loathing 2 is a representation of the diversity of the word Techno."

Product Description

Following the successful debut of Fear and Loathing in 2001, Resist returns with an eagerly awaited follow-up – Fear and Loathing 2. Although Luke Slater is generally regarded as a "techno DJ," on this album he explores a wide range of electronic music across various micro-genres, showcasing his diversity in music.

Mixing several upfront tracks together with essential tracks from the past, CD1 weaves from ambient sound-scapes by Planetary Assault System and Bola, through to the minimal click-house of Isolee, groovy beats of Agoria, to Carl Craig’s remix of Throbbing Grislte’s "Hot on the Heals of Love." CD2 is a dancefloor-filler mix taking in all that’s hot in the world of electro and techno, including tracks from The Advent, Nitzer Ebb, and Alter Ego’s underground smash "Rocker."

3.0 out of 5 stars Patchy, May 9, 2006

This review is from: Fear & Loathing 2 (Audio CD)

What a shame. I own Freek Funk and worship that album, so thought Luke should be able to do better than this. It's praised for being "varied". I'd call it patchy at best, more like sparse. CD1 is only worth it for the last 5 minutes, which are incredible. CD2 starts off promisingly, slumps, has an amazing tune and then gets totally mindless, headachy pots and pans too close to your ears until another fine recovery in the last few tracks. Not worth bothering with unless you could sit through the likes of Hard House Update without getting a headache.

This is a great two disc set of some of the finest electronic music I've heard in years. I'm particulary fond of the Throbbing Gristle remix and the track by Chris McCormack. The Chris McCormack track nearly blew my mind the first time I heard it. Then it nearly blew my mind the next 20 times I heard it. It all fits nicely in a diverse, thoughtful, and surprising mix. As a long-time fan of electronic music I highly recommend this collection.
