I must admit; I mostly bought this compilation because Narcotic Thrust "I like it" was on it, but guess what; I got a collection of great tracks with it! This is the CD to put on along with the first drink on a friday night, and you would play it through, because it's a mix of lounge laidback yet groovy tracks, some wellknown from the dancefloors and some you have heard on other compilations. Of course my favourite track is "I like it", but overall it works, it's a great CD. :)

It now appears to me that Amazon might do its buyers well by requiring those offering a review fill out some type of mandatory comparison chart, or something. Some of the adjectives used by the other 2 reviewers (hot, sexy, etc) need defining. I did not find the music on this CD any of the things those other 2 did. To me,it was more of just that boring, dull, unimaginative junk most gyms seem to play nowadays that someone told them would help motivate their members to work out better, NOT! If you really want some hot and, sexy music that can turn up the heat or, chill things down to a dreamy state try something from Claude Challe, Tantra Lounge, the Chilllounge CD, the Elemental Chill series, the Vintage Chill series, or some of the Naked Music, Cafe del Mar, or Hed Kandi stuff. Leave this one to your younger (like around 14 years old) sister to jump around in her room to. Sometimes I wonder if the sellers write these reviews just to push their stock. The price is right on this one, to bad the music on the CD was just such a bore!

Just picked this one up today. I was craving some good, deep, chunky house, and saw this in the listening station. Like most house comps these days, they reel you in with a name like Miguel Migs or Kaskade. Don't get me wrong, love both, but it's a bit of a marketing tool I think. Anyway, I was pleased with all the tracks at the store, then popped it into my car as I pulled away. What? Was this the same CD I was just listening to?? The tracks seemed to drag on and on... until I got to number 8. MAN ALIVE, this is SERIOUS, FRESH, FUNKY, and NEW house. Hoo ray to the house gods! In fact, I'm gonna pop it in now as I get ready to go out. GO JOCELYN!!!

... it's hard to believe that this slammin' house mix is designed for play in hair salons - close your eyes for a moment and you'd think it's Saturday night at your favourite strip joint. Recommended.
