"Ron Trent is one of the few DJs who can entice a person to purchase a mix CD on the strength of just his name. The man has skills! The selection on this cd is perfect and the blends are First Class!! I even love the cd designs; CD One is purple which is my favorite color. CD Two is black, which is always a good compliment to purple. The design of the insert is very haunting, with a photo of Mr. Trent in that "zone" and seemingly rockin' the place. According to the insert, "every person...has a certain choice of sound". Well, Ron Trent's sound is one to be experienced. The only thing left is for a double or triple set to be released with Ron Trent and Kerri "Kaoz 6:23" Chandler on the mix - I'd buy it in a heartbeat!!! After all is said and done the only thing left to say is, THIS CD IS VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! I forgot to mention that Ron Trent is from Chicago -- just in case any Chi-Town heads needed some more encouragement :) One more thing - when I got the CD I told a colleague that my life would change after this CD; it did!"
Smooth deep jazzy house

"All i can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, Chicago's gift to the world of afrolicious house muzik has Ron Trent ripping it up on this fantastic double cd of hits off of King Street and Nite Grooves. Take a journey through a deep, dubby, afro groove that will make you replay the tracks again and again. Both cd's have a a combination of soulful tracks selected my Mr Trent and even pulling off a 3 turntable action!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my God, if your a dj you would be able to recognize his flawless mixing off of 3 turntables which is rarely done on mix cds. Please; if you are debating over this cd, fear not, you will be very satisfied and dazzled in a world of Grooves"
Sheer excellence

"I've heard some hundreds of house mixes and this one definitely ranks among the best. I've heard this mix in the past month nearly everyday, it is that good. Incredibly tasteful, expressive, playful deep house, super-smoothly mixed. A deep emotional journey for those with an open heart. Ron Trent is GOD !"
Deeeeeep as always

"Ron trent is a very trusted name in deep house, he has yet to show a weakness...
cd 1 has more of a peak hour, getting sweaty, garage feel...
cd 2 is definately for the afterhours, still got kick, but more melodic....
highly recommended.
one of the best deep house mixes ever!"
