A Very Excellent Mix!, August 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: House Music Movement (Audio CD)
The title says it all: ...MOVEMENT!!! You cannot sit still from moment one. This is everything that Resolutions, Tee's current release, isn't. There are those awesome vocal tracks with blistering rhythm in between and all all around. Todd Terry has performed magic with his non-stop selection. It all makes sense and feels great. In fact, sitting in traffic isn't so bad with this collection in the tray. (Warning: have an extra set of fuses available just in case you get carried away with the volume.) The accompanying interview disc is even quite interesting--like one long NPR segment. If anyone has any of the other discs in the House Music series, I'd be interested in your input. I can't tell much from the RealPlayer bytes.

Shows why Todd Terry is at the very top of the Dance World, May 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: House Music Movement (Audio CD)
I received a previes copy of this CD last week and it blew me away. First thing loved was the packaging, a great picture of Todd looking way too cool for words in trademark baseball cap and gold chain leaning against a wall, it makes a change from the moody pics of DJs on most CDs or label logos. Inside the case I found a 26 page booklet with three gatefold pull outs, what seemed like a million pictures of clubbing from around the world and a great discography of the man himself. On top of that there was a coupen cut out to buy a gigantic looking book about the History of House Music which I am tempted to send off for right away. Before I get to the music I also find a second bonus CD, a collection of spoken word interviews set to a funky house backing track. Legendary figures such as Jesse Saunders, Little Louie Vega and Frankie Knuckles in conversation with UK magazine Mix Mag on the story of House (very educational and a right giggle too). The CD itself can only be described as brilliant, awesome, magnificent - Todd Terry gets all freestyle on us with a collection of some of his best productions and remixes in tuff underground dubs (De' Effect, CLS, Sound Design)through to full vocal commercial pearls (Martha Wash, Kym Mazelle, Lighthouse Familly). A wild style MC urges "the Sound Selecta" at intervals across the mix which gives us a real live feel of what it must be like to hear Todd ply out live in one of the world best clubs - In short, buy this record, it's an education, it's value for money and it rocks.

Amazing CD, good variety, September 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: House Music Movement (Audio CD)
This is an absolutely amazing CD. The mixes are extremely good and well planned. Good bit of American House in general, not as deadly boring as most house produced in America. Very very well done CD... I'd reccomend to anyone who loves house.
