I have worked as a rave and party promoter, and a musician in the scene for nearly ten years. I am biased because when I first met Jon it was to hire him for an underground massive. He was the hit of the show, and I booked him at anything I could put togeather therafter. One of the cool things about Jon is that if the party was a money loser - not enough people - Jon would still spin like a mutha, and then refuse his pay. He has always supported the scene - and I'm glad to tell it. He wouldn't.

We have also collaborated on a song or two. If the song or remix says it was done by Bliss, that would be us.

His choice of music reflects his passion - get the feets on the floor. It is also typical of his songs, and the ones he chooses for his sets, to build with many layers - a trippy-fuge-prog house style. If you have ever indulged in mind altering practices or substances on the dance floor, this record will bring it back full force. This is hard and fast music, though. Not to be confused with chill room tunes. Beats are in the mid-to-high 130's and up from there. It's his choice of music and skillfull creative way he brings it togeather that set his mixes apart. I have been to many clubs and not known who was on the lineup - when suddenly the energy would change. It would notch up perceptably - people would hit the floor, moods would improve. I swear 9 out of ten times when this effect was hitting I would ask who the DJ was and be told it was Jon Bishop, just starting his set.

He is great. His star is rising. Buy this CD. It is a prime example of what he does like no one else. It is in my "ready access" stack at all times.

Well I'm a big fan of Trance, progressive house and hard house. I don't know why I decided to buy this CD but it is probably one of the best CD's that I own now.

This CD is the best of NuNRG. If your not familiar with this style its like a blend of House, Hard house and techno. Its very fast, hovering around 140 bmp and its slammin. This CD is great to party too. I don't have any others like it in my collection. I've had it for a year or so now and it is still pumpin. The CD stays hard from start to finish. So if you're in the mood for something to rock the house with get this CD, full of energy.

Great mixing with a track selection that keeps your body movin from beginning to end. You won't be disappointed if your looking for something to dance all night too. I'm eagerly waiting for Jon to come out with another CD.

This album truly captures the feeling that Jon Bishop creates every Thursday night at Club Hedonism in San Diego, CA! I have spent many a night moved by Bishop's infectious grooves and now the world can be a part of it!

I lived in San Diego now in Philly. There will never be anything like Him. Club Hedonism, there is nothing like that place. He really knows how to make the energy in the room rise and blow off the roof. If you ever have a chance to see him live do it. It will change your world:)

This CD is BUMPIN'!!!! I've never heard such musik from any other DJ. Jon Bishop absolutly rips up the sound waves. I just wish he'd play more all ages events!!! :)

I am very tough....but this CD is bangin right out da box! Its hard house with alot of rhythm and bite.

O.K.

I'm not biased.

It's not that I'm displeased with the album, it's just that I don't like his style of house.

A reviewer commented that he's heard cds from Oakenfold or Sasha, but they don't compare with Bishop. It's hardly fair to compare these djs considering their diversity in style and track selection--it's like comparing grunge rock to pop rock.

If you prefer trance or funky house, then this cd is probably not for you. If you are into NRG, thumping electronic house, then pick it up. You will probably love this album. The mixing is well done and track selection is fine. I am not a particular fan of this house and conversely can only give it 3 stars.

I met John at a club in San Diego a few months ago and he was the most egotistical self centered jerk I have ever met. I couldn't believe it. At the time I had never heard any of his stuff so I decided to give it a second chance and get one of his CD's. MAN WAS THAT A BAD DECISION!! This is one of the worst Cd's I have ever heard. I would rather listen to Vanilla Ice and NKOTB all day long for the rest of my life before I had to listen to this CD again. However the CD makes a nice coaster.
