5.0 out of 5 stars
Simply the best drum and bass CD out there. Period., January 4, 2002
This review is from: Full Circle - Drum & Bass DJ Mix (Audio CD)
DJ Dara's clean style of mixing is perfected on this CD. It's by far the best mix I've ever heard to this day. I've had this CD since it was first released, and it is STILL the best dnb CD i've ever heard. Track #1 starts off slowly with a hint of ambience, but then comes in hard with a rolling bassline in track #2. The energy is constant throughout the entire CD, and the songs are all top notch. I personally searched for these songs in various record stores hoping to purchase them on vinyl but I was ultimately unsuccessful. You can't find these tracks anywhere else but on this CD! .... My personal favorite song on this CD (as well as my favorite overall) is track #4, Terradaktil by Pascal and Phantasy. This is a beatiful hard-hitting jump-up/tech stepper that has my heart and head pounding whenever i listen to it. Listen to the song sample provided by Amazon.com and I guarantee that you'll like it. I would recommend this CD to everyone, whether you are new to drum & bass or a veteran of the scene. It is a deffinately a must for any jungle collection (or any kind of electronica collection for that matter). They just don't produce CD's like this anymore.

5.0 out of 5 stars
An "A" class mix cd by Dara, August 17, 2003
This review is from: Full Circle - Drum & Bass DJ Mix (Audio CD)
Well, I'll say I bought this back in 98', a time when I was just geting into jungle and it was my first real techstep d&b disk I ever owned. I'd still say that it's one of the best store bought cd's you can get. All thogh it got overplayed at raves a lot Funktion was a great track, Terradaktil has some great bass to it, Symphonic by SS was probably my favorite, Bull Terrior, Bring the Danger, everything was good and more than half on this cd were classics of the time. It's a great and well rounded mix that does what very FEW mix cd's or evem mix tapes do - expressed a complete thought and kept a very progressive change of feel to where no record seemed to just land out of nowhere. I'd recomend this to anyone who's hooked on the 98' sound and especially anyone who has a good box of subs in the back of their ride, MA4 - Bull Terrior hits like you wouldn't believe.

This Mix CD captures the ESSENCE of Drum and Bass!, April 14, 1999
This review is from: Full Circle - Drum & Bass DJ Mix (Audio CD)
I've had this cd for a while now, and it's always on heavy-rotation in my car. Starts off with a really smooth track, and finished with an even doper jump up d'n'b track. EXCELLENT!! I recently went to the "Vanity" in NyC, where Dara mixed and he was phenomenol!! Mad respect to Dara, and the whole Breakbeat Science, NYC heads. Peace.
