It is about the mixing..

"I guess Global Underground ruined a lot of people. Trance and progressive house are meant to be mixed smoothly together.
This CD showcases how techno should be mixed. It is one of the best examples ever put down. Classic.
Ps, most of you out there expecting smooth mixes would be horrified about how those are concieved with pro tools in a sound lab, not on the decks."
Jeff Mills is amazing.

"First off, 99% of the mix cd's you have in your collection are mixed by computers. Yes, wake up. That is why they sound so perfect. I saw Jeff Mills live at B.E.D. in Miami at Winter Music Conference 2004. I have been Djing for 14 years and have been to countless clubs around the world. Jeff Mills took a crowded room and made it literally levetate. This CD has great tracks mixed live (Jeff Mills would have it no other way). Enjoy. Also, check out his Exhibitionist DVD."

"So yeah, some of the mixes on this cd are dog ruff....but some are sublime and anyway aren't you getting sick of the 10 million slick-mix cd's out there? At least this sounds like it was mixed live, by a person, not a machine. But anyway, it's the music which really makes this stand head and shoulders above all the dross out there. From start to finish this is a relentless blend of hard, funky, superbly produced techno that scarecly gives you time to draw breath. Each of the 372(or something) tracks is a winner, quality and quantity - you can't argue with that!Buy this along with Coldcut's Extreme Possibilites, invite your friends round, and play at high volume. Sorted."
