Synopsis

Amazon.com
Now that big beat's moment is over and everyone knows that the Chemical Brothers and Fatboy Slim didn't save rock & roll but reinvented it as a crunchy electronic beat, what next? Listeners still clinging to that brief moment of bang-it-out glory can take heart in this compilation, featuring more than a few masters of meaty rolling beats and muscly bass lines with enough power to bench-press a whole frat house. Lo-Fidelity Allstars jump-start the joint, while Midfield General turn in a hip-hop jam. In general this comp's a slower affair than usual, with hip-hop figuring heavily, though Sparky Lightbourne gets all discoed out. Funky appearances from the Fat One and Space Raiders further fill out this collection from the quintessential Big Beat label, Skint, continuing the phat, phunky tradition. --Tricia Romano

"I read about this CD in "Stuff" magazine, Maxim's little offshoot. . .and it said this CD was really dope, Fatboy Slim and other DJ's doing their stuff. I have to say, for a techno enthusiast, most of these songs are definitely cool - cutting edge in terms of music. Some of them are a little weird, I like dance music more than like. . .mellow techno. . .? But, overall, a good buy."
