(4 out of 5 stars)

"I came upon Jamie Myerson through being a huge fan of Paul Oakenfold. Oakey has used many of Jamie's tracks in his sets from way back to his Perfecto Fluoro (Track 26 Revisions) and his Live in Olso (Music for the..). Most of the tracks consist of smooth guitar or piano riffs over intelligent drum and bass mixing. No vocals, just "chilled-out" instrumentals with nice beats. It's not the type of drum & bass that keeps you on the edge of your seat, or makes you want to dance, there is no "agro" flavour in this whatsoever. The sounds he uses are non-aggressive, well blended, and very mellow. I would recommend this album for anyone who needs a good CD to wash away any stress. The only reason I don't give the CD the full 5 stars is that the album lacks variety. However, I still highly recommend it. Sky City would help take the "edge" off of anyone's day."
