I bought this album the day it came out back in 1999. Having heard some of Toms other works, which consist of mostly intelligent type breaks, i was awed when i heard the laid back house beats he put down. Ive purchased this album for many birthdays and promoted it to even more. 3 years later i am still listening to this album at least once a week. Easily one of the most innovative house albums ive heard. We need more.

Tom Middleton can do no wrong. OK so he's put his own fingerprint in there with an old-ish Global Communication track, but I've heard this album many times already, and on each listening the pleasure grows. The pace of beats are spot on as the mood of the album sways between jazzy and thump to sublime and chill-out. Without doubt a class above a majority of mix albums. This one has FEELINGS. Buy it, enjoy it, applaude it, I say.

this is one excellent compilation. it is rhythmic, smooth, mellow and moving all at once. this one has been in heavy rotation here at work- and for good reason. middleton brings us really excellent music, and blends it up so smoothly- reminding everyone that mixing is much more than just matching beats.

I've been trying to track this CD down after 'losing' it to a roommate a few years back and now I remember why. For me, this CD was/is the benchmark for deep, intelligent and most importantly - dancable - electronic music. Most tracks included are classics in their own right - no filler, no dull moments, nothing compromised. Know someone who doubts the artistic integrity of the DJ? Put this on. I can't think of a better introduction to dance music.

......lovers of spacey house music. This is an excellent offering from a DJ , which I know very little of.....this is the first offering I have seen of his in print , and it has me wanting more.....the CD starts off with definite house beats , but after the 4th song , he kind of samples 'Black Science Orch....' to get the beat started in a different direction. Once he does then it really starts to get me back to the old 'Acid House' days. Wonderful CD for Spacey , Acid house music lovers.
