ok there's a top set for 2004 thread already running but what about Comp CD of the year?

My vote goes to......

Filterheadz - Tribalicious

My vote goes for James Holden - Balance 00?

I N V O L V E R :RockOn:

Re: Comp CD of the Year?

I'll go with INVOLVER I'm not really that big of a sasha fan but man that cd is just something else, it has a class of its own.....

I'd also liked "rise and fall" from pascal feos.

Involver

Fuck, im begging to sound like a big Sasha fan the amount ive been going on about him so lately.

[quote]My vote goes for James Holden - Balance 00? [/quote]

Its the 005 and its from last year

I voted it my favorite cd of 2003 :wink:

ITS FROM 2003? SHIT...... THEN MY VOTE GOES FOR......MMMMMM......INVOLVER.....OR PAPPA - BALANCE 006

Fabric 15 - Craig Richards

[quote=eccentricbeats]Fabric 15 - Craig Richards[/quote]

:RightOn:

Involver was very good aswell. But Craig completly changed how I viewed his talent and style

Renaissance Masters by Hernan Cattaneo

James Zabiela - ALiVE

No doubts about it...

Either Involver or ALiVE, but I'm leaning towards ALiVE

Cusick's Palms or Chloe's Kiss... but neither were really a "Comp" so I vote that there were none.

when did burridges 24/7 come out? i vote for that but thats the only CD i bought this year..

edit: actually i bought involver too and i really like that

Steve Gerrard-thinking out loud

Desyn - Bedrock OS1 8)

There are three compliations I really enjoyed this year. The first one is Cattaneo's Renaissance Masters Vol. 1..my CD's are already so worn out from playing them up and down all the time. :lol: I just can't get enough of Catta's sexy prog house beats. The second CD I am really glad that I bought it (after listening a preview on Digweed's Kiss100 show) is Pig & Dan - Submission Sessions Vol. 1 which features only own releases from the production duo Dan Duncan & Igor Tchkotoua mixed together. The sound is very hypnotic and unique and somewhere between Progressive and Techno. The third CD which stood the test of time is Sasha's Involver. Hearing his Burma remix for the very first time in my life in CD quality is a moment I will never forget...goosebumps all the way. There?s not one track I didn't like on this album so it was definately worth the ??.

I am looking forward to purchase Digweed's Fabric 20, Fortier's Balance 007 (after listening to a preview because his Audio tour was a 17 ? expensive let down for me in 2004 :evil: ) and Catta?s Renaissance Masters Vol. 2 next year. :D

Re: Comp CD of the Year?

Im going to say Pappa-Balance 6.

CD 1 of that was a very nice surprise for me,and CD 2 was Pappa's usual top notch dark prog.

Re: Comp CD of the Year?

Desyn Masiello - O.S.02 !

Anthony Pappa-Balance Fabric 20 by John Digweed

Cattaneo's Renaissance Masters Vol. 1

With out doubt Numero Uno!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(was involver really 2004??)

[quote=eccentricbeats]Fabric 15 - Craig Richards[/quote]

I'm with you, that cd is fantastic.

I really like this one too...but this was 2003....wasn't it?

Re: Comp CD of the Year?

This is tough but it's def. a close tie between Cattaneos' Reniassance and Involver with Involer just squeaking it out w/ the win.

Involver. Every time I listen to it I notice something new and cool. Some little sounds here and there... It makes me wonder how much work must have gone into it. :shock: Each sound is on its place there. Not a single one unnecessary or missing. Except for the last 2 tracks. :lol: They are unnecessary in their whole. :lol: Otherwise it would be a perfect cd. :wink:

my vote is Armin Van Burren and his compilation of Trance sucks Balls.. :SuckeyTo:

Flat out ... Sasha Involver. nothing even came close to such a production and value. There were some other good ones, but truly a sad year in music for EDM.

that's why you always have 80's. understand?

Maybes the Therapy Sessions, but the year was a bit so so imo.

Involver was nice too i suppose. :roll:

you know it ... :RockOn:

i can't think of one...kind of a bad year for comps IMO tons of nice livesets though

Re: Comp CD of the Year?

I've loved both the Sander Kleinenberg Everybody cd's 8) I guess we can't include the 10th Anniversary Renaissance re-release?

[quote="Troklo"]I'll go with INVOLVER I'm not really that big of a sasha fan but man that cd is just something else, it has a class of its own..... quote]

i would have to agree it is still in my cd player at least once a week

Re: Comp CD of the Year?

Lance Cashion's Proton compilation

Dave Seaman & Phil K's Therapy Sessions (especially Phil's disc)

James Zabiela's Alive

and i can't think of any others off the top of my head.

Anthony Pappa's Balance 006 was a pleasent surprise and seeing as i missed it first time round The Mix Collection by Sasha/Digweed.

Alive all the way baby... Followed by Pappa's Balance and Desyn's OS__1

all I know is that I picked it up this year and it rocks..

A slight change in the top3.... Diggers Fabric is absolutely unbelievable. I've had it on heavy rotation for the last 5 hours. :RockOn:

I?m with TomTom on this one. Pig&Dan saved this year. This is so interesting and smooth, I can?t remember when I listened to a compilation that much.

Well, Involver, Balance06, EverybodyToo, Alive... I don?t play them often...

Re: Comp CD of the Year?

weatherall's fabric for me by a mile :twisted:

i thought involver started off great then went nowhere

most of the other mixes i liked this year werent comp cd's, but rather live mixes -- hawtin's time warp, weatherall's groovepressure set, hulkonnen at rotation. . . .
