3.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre and repetitive, June 28, 2003

I came across "Perfecto Greatest Hits" the other day in the used cd bins. I immediately picked it up because I liked a lot of the songs on the cd, namely the Paul Oakenfold tracks as well as songs by BT, PPK, and Jan Johnston. Much to my disappointment I found the 2-cd compilation to be one big headache. I found the majority of the songs absolutely repetitive and annoying. The songs I did like that weren't by Oakey, BT, PPK, and Jan Johnston was Skip Raiders' "Another Day" which samples Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings". I love the fusion of techno and classical music. Normally I can't stand Timo Maas (overrated German dj) but I like "To Get Down". It has a nice funky breakbeat rhythm to the song. Although predictable, I did like Ascension's "Someone Like You". Otherwise, songs like "Reach Up" (Perfecto Allstarz) and "Darklands" (Fabio & Grooverider) were horribly repetitive and got on my last nerves. I swear that Dope Smugglaz' "Double Double Dutch" sounds way too much like Hanson's "MmmmBop", a horrible pop song from back in the mid-90s. Overall I was completely disappointed with this compilation from Oakenfold's record label.

This is a great collection of hits from Perfecto Records. I remember most of all of these hits dating all the way back to the early 90's like Human Nature by Gary Clail. All of the the tracks are top notch and well worth owning if at all you knew what electronic and dance music was like in that decade when this music exploded. Tracks like Grace's Not Over Yet, Tilt's Rendezvous [Tilt's Quadraphonic Instrumental Mix], Reach Up by Perfecto Allsarz or Someone Like You by Ascension. This collection has all of the great hits from the decade when electronica and dance music exploded!
