This is one of the best House/Trance mixed CDs I have ever heard! Phil B does a wonderful job incorporating good vocal trance and house together into a fabulous blend of pure energetic delight. "Strong in Love" is simply a beautiful song. This is a *must have* for all you up-beat electronica lovers...and even you mainstreamers who love to dance, and are willing to let House Trancemissions take you into another realm!

Phil B. does a superb job of mixing these tunes. I found the last 3 tracks a bit out of place with the others, but I enjoyed them nevertheless.

Not to quibble, but the other reviewer's comment that Phil B. created "Circuit Grooves 9.1" isn't accurate -- that was Matt Consola, another San Francisco DJ. HOWEVER, Phil B. does have a new release -- "Music for the Clubs" in which he has taken his considerable talent to an even higher level. I definitely recommend that one, as well as this one.

Like other reviewers here, this is one of my favorite techno-dance CD's and has been since I picked it up 6-8 months ago. About the only slightly better CD I have like this is Swedish Egil's Groove Radio Trancemission #1 compilation (which also has an Ayla song on it). This CD is strong from start to finish and has numerous high points along the way. It's an interesting mix in that the sound gradually evolves from full out house/trance at the beginning and thru the middle to an almost disco-ish (Gloria Gaynor?) sound by the last couple of songs. The transition is really smooth and sweet, and keeps the CD interesting all the way through. Let this music carry you away!

I picked this illatious CD up the 5th of May 2001 and it was made in 99" but it's still got the fresh sound of whats out there today.I love this CD, Phil knew what he was doing, clearly! I was introduced to Trance only 2 yrs ago in the March of 99 and thats all I bought. CD's like Oakenfol and D-FUSE (Speaking of D-FUSE go check him out he's on the Moonshine label just look for Psychotrance 2000 and 2001)only liking trance at first I said it was time for a change I picked up Dj Mixed.com/Keoki and Micro and fell in love with Trance / House. Now thats all I look for I'm still into just trance but the beats just don't cut it on some Cd's like Global Underground NY Paul Oakenfold. This CD definately cuts the beats and mixes the trance in the best way Phil B knows how. The tracks I love are "Tomorrow", "Strong in Love", and "That man of Mine". I've heard another variation of "Tomorrow" before but I like it this way better, this CD's a blast it's really worth five stars in my book!

I rarely bother to write reviews of things, but I had to let people know that this CD is truly outstanding-- one of the very best if not THE best trance/house/dance CDs I have. Many trance CD's have a lot of bad filler songs, but this one pumps high energy, uplifting trance all the way through (especially tracks 3-9; I like 10, too, but it's more dance than trance... the best 7 trance songs in a row I've ever heard). So, I highly recommend this disc-- if you like uplifting, high energy trance (rather than dark or obnoxious or cacophonic sounding junk that's out there), it's a must for your collection.

This has got to be one of the best mixed music compilations there is. I haven't heard of DJ Phil B. until now and it's just not right. Go ahead and get your hands on this disc and let your feet do the dancing.

Wow! All I can say for this album. Popped it in and from "Tomorrow" thru "Ayla" all the way up to "The Lover That You Are 2000". This is a non-stop journey into Trance. Phil B did an excellent job on this 'Bad Boy'........ truly one of my favorite Trance CD's that I have.

There is no other way to say it, this is GREAT! Definitely give CIRCUIT GROOVES 9.1 a try also, (by Phil B too), it is as good or better (if THAT is even possible!). ENJOY !
