This cd is everything you expect from Omar, heavy and energetic. It actually seemed to start out a bit slow for me, until it got to track 8 (with 5 being the only exception.) When this cd gets to #8(Da Predator - Human Blood)it picks up rapidly. Tracks 8-10 are probably my favorite of Omar on any of his cds. This includes both Da Predator songs, which both have great energy. Also interesting on this cd are the LA's Fallen Ones songs. Their remix of Low Tek, followed by Target LA are also great. There seems to be a much different bass to these songs, and I like it tremendously. But hands down the best track on the cd is Human Blood.

Overall, this is another great compilation by Omar, and I await many more great mixes by him in the future.

One note: I'm not sure exactly why, but there was(is) no Parental Advisory on this album. Most of Omar's cds are like this, but this one is far and away the most profane. The F word appears in this album 50+ times. Just a word of caution for those unaccustomed to the genre, if the ears are sensitive, steer clear of Omar. Otherwise, enjoy it just as much as I have.

i bought this after hearing omar santana's "hardcore moederneuker", expecting it to sound at least somewhat like that track. i was sorely disappointed when i discovered this album to be, for the most part, just another heap of gabber excretum: slow (relatively), formulaic and commercial - since when is this hardcore?! the cd picks up a bit towards the end but ultimately disappointed me....
if this sort of softcore just bores you to tears, try out Disciples of Annihilation's "NYC Speedcore", "Disco Inferno" by Delta 9, or anything by Nasenbluten!!
