5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic compilation..., October 7, 2009

Bought this back in 1992 in Nebraska at my area mall's music store in the "Alternative" / "Various Artists" section. I was hungry for this type of sound. Being from the midwest, the predominant music style on the radio was classic rock, oldies, and country. I bought this because it had a sort of underground style to the packaging -- I had no idea who any of the artists were, but I'd been burned by flashy packaging on techno/rave CDs before.

To make a long story short, this compilation changed my musical tastes forever.

I'd long since lost the CD but today I found an MP3 I made of one tune from the disc in 1996 back when I was experimenting with the new-fangled MP3 software my friends were telling me about.

Just bought the CD and am looking forward to the nostalgia... What a terrific sampling of the early 90's scene!

Recently, I've become interested in early 90s dance music. I stumbled upon this CD and decided to try it. I was not disappointed. Most of the tracks are good (especially for their time) but "Hardcore Heaven" and "G Force" are still completely awesome when compared to modern dance music. Before buying this, I recognized "Prodigy", "DJ Seduction", "Orbital", and "Utah Saints". It's interesting to see just how much these artists (especially Prodigy) have changed since this album. All in all, this is a great collection of early 90s breaks and house.

4.0 out of 5 stars an electric eclectic mix of old and new, will make you shake, July 19, 1998

a wonderful blend of various beats makes this compilation a must-have for those who want music that no one else has...although some tunes tend to stretch, overall this cd has the ingredients to make any groove session complete...highly recommended
