4.0 out of 5 stars trippy trek into goovy breaks, April 18, 2006

My reviewere Kris had this to say about this CD for Raves.com/DJfix.com: Icey is kinda spacey. This, of course, with me, helps his appeal. The promise of a trippy trek into the world of electronica is always a positive thing, provided it's done right. Icey is also, befittingly, chilled and cool (but hot with ability, right?). His groovy breaks apply a certain textured minimalism to create infectious hookyness that use subtlety to sink its claws in. It doesn't take much for Icey's work here to get you into the flow and enjoying the pulse. Adding to the layers of Icey's textures are vocal samplings from time to time, trance-ish pulsation and a hint of glitchyness to help ferment some pleasant acid bite. The music is a bit on the understated side at times but I think that's also what helps the hook. And this doesn't interfere with the energy and even sultry qualities awaiting your enjoyment herein. Take a dark, evocative trip to innerspace with Merka's "I'll Be Here." The Drummatic Twins' "Feelin' Kinda Strange" is an acidy discoteque clubhouse track for a psychedelic future, catchy as hell with high energy vox. DJ Icey's own "Come Closer" boasts thick beats and dense acid power in an offbeat house experiment. And for some true oddity, check out "Grizzle," a charged up electroshocked, hooky piece of gritty dance. And there's more where that came from.

Icey makes another hard bassed groovy breakbeat cd in this Dj Icey Presents Y4K done for the first time under Distinct'ive Breaks Record Label. I think this cd isnt really as powerful such as his Essential Elements cd, now that had some hardcore bass and brilliant new wave breaks in it. this cd is prolly most similair to that cd. I really reccomend everyone to get this cd. Icey throws it down like no other, especially from essential elements to all of his other cds out now. Some of the best tracks on this cd are tracks 2,3,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,and 14, pretty much every song on the cd. So I advise you to really start looking for this cd cuz if you listen to dj Icey and you dont have this cd by him then you are really missing out on Icey's best music.
