5.0 out of 5 stars music for music lovers, January 23, 2004

By	Russell Marshalek "russ" (marietta, ga United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

laurent garnier shows again why he's one of, if not THE, most versatile dj in the world, and proves why he's so damn sought-after. the three discs contained herein have garnier playing everything from hard techno to tracks with a jazzier techy feel and blending in house, hip-hop, even pulling a drum and bass track from nirvana's "smells like teen spirit"...and everything garnier does, he does flawlessly. unlike some other djs who blend and mash genres, garnier's not just a dj's dj, he's a music lover's dj. absolutely essential.

5.0 out of 5 stars You poor Americans, January 6, 2004

By	filterite "filterite" (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews

You're only getting this now while us Europeans have been enjoying this box set for quite some time now. Alas, some of you more impatient types probably ordered the whole 5 CD set from www.fcomshop.com and are already enjoying the benefits to know how good it is. Of course keep that website in mind. Amazon will only send you 3 out of the 5 CDs. If you want the other two - the website above will gladly help you.

But now onto the music - well all I can say is that " c'est tres magnifique." CD 1,2 and 4 will work great as a party mood but can also be listened to without having to dance - which is a little bit of a rarity given it's culture. CD 3 is more of a downbeat CD. Twisted electronica, jazzy moments and a spot of French pop from Alain Bashung ( Madame Reve ) make this a good time to relax after either partying hard with the other two CDs or having another stressful day at work. CD 5 is more of an angry mix made directly after Laurent's reaction to the extreme right wing coming into the second round of the presidential election. Listen to the track he made with Sangoma - it's pure undiluted rage.

Of course, I should remind you that this will only happen if you order from www.fcomshop.com for CD4 and 5. It's really is worth it. Trust me I've done the same ( more out of a common belief that if I buy a box set I want it complete )

Also assuming you have a computer with internet and I assume you do if you are reading this that's not all ( I'm beginning to sound like those guys you hear on QVC ). You'll get access to Laurent Garnier's website and also PBB which is where Laurent has his own sort of radio show on the internet. But don't worry it's just pure music and you never get the same set twice!

So in recap this box set has much more value for money than what you might expect. So there's no other reason for any of you wondering on this but to go out and buy it!
