Kerri Chandeler is a genius!

I've seen Kerri spin in England and I have also heard him on the radio in England. And while I consider myself fortunate for having seen and heard him, these type of memories are still somewhat transitory -- the only way you can relive them is by either having a tape of the even (which I don't) or by playing a record that the dj was playing and hope that the memories come flooding back! However, with this mix CD I can definitely remember what I felt when I saw Kerri in the club.

But enough about my flashbacks -- let's get down to the meat: the music! Track one sets it off! The perfect intro for the mix, not going into a four-on-the-floor beat just yet. That happens on track two, right after the short vocal intro. Next there is track three which is sooooo jazzy; it belongs, trust me! Track four slamms on the vocals. Track five (one of my all-time favorites) kills on the dubs and short vocals. And we're still on that jazzy vibe as well! But the real treat is track six. Oh my goodness this is truly one phat record! Watch for the hook!!!!!! Now, one thing that I really enjoy in a mix CD is the transition from track to track. The transition from track six to track seven is amazing. If you are not screaming at that point then just keep waiting because this project just gets better! Oh, by the way, we're still in that serious jazz mode. Now the transition from track seven to eight is pretty smooth, as well. Note the heavy bassline, which is a feature of the next track, which WILL MAKE YOU LOSE CONTROL!!!!! Thankfully track ten lets you cool down a bit and catch your breath. The seamless transition in to track eleven allows for the cool down to continue. We are still in the jazz mode again. But the vocals make a triumphant return for the next two tracks, and they are hot! Track fourteen brings it back to a simple bassline and short vocal hook that is typcal Kerri. Tracks fifteen and sixteen sound excellent in sequence and keep the vibe warm, just in time to complete the mix.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention one important thing about this compilation. Read the liner notes...they tell the truth!

After hearing this mix you'll know why Kerri is a genius. Three words: deep, jazzy, soulful!

I LOVE this cd, had it since it first came out and still play it at least on a monthly basis. I don't think Mr. Chandlers mixing is as tight as it could be, but to hear the maker mix his own tracks (and what tracks thay are!!!) and absolutely enthrailing! I'm in a Garaged Deep House state of bliss when Kerri does his thing!

I will buy anything by DJs K. Chandler, L.Vega, R. Trent,T. Humphries, and this CD is my all time favorite mix. I have 2 copies in case I wear he first one out. This is Soulful House personified. Period. Trust me just buy it. The mixing is flawless and oh so funk---kay.
