Both CDs are continuous mix CDs. The first disc is absolutely amazing. It contains a number of classic old skool electro tracks as well as some fantastic gems I had never heard before. The mix is not repetitive and many of the songs do include vocals. The type of vocal that is most prominent is that sing-song rap style that was popular before Run DMC dropped (think Rapper's Delight, Cold Crush Bros., etc.).

If you are down with Diplo's Fabric CD, you should definitely like both cds.

Btw, another reviewer mentions that some tracks on these discs are not technically "electro." That is true. However, all the songs are great, the mix is great, they all sound good together, so I am not bothered by the genre blending at all.

The first CD is a lot of really dated old skool electro. Not really my kinda thing. The second cd is a bit better, but since when were 'Dooms night' and old deep house cuts by deep dish (Casa de X) considered electro. There's some good old techno tracks too, the standout being Acid Jesus. In all a very average 'listen once or twice and then archive' CD.

this album works so many artists are on this cd i only liked one cd (its a 2 cd set)i say get it
