Electronic Dance Music Euphoria

I'm guessing there may be a lack of selection out there to produce a good 'EDM' compilation.The first CD is certainly packed with some good tracks and then comes a handful of tracks that feel heavily out of place, and come on... William Orbit and Tiesto have already remixed the s*** out of Barber's classic - Adagio for Strings... do we really need a remix of a remix?!Second CD is good for a playthrough and then it all descends into 'Trap' and 'Crunk' music on the third... If you have never heard this genre before then stick your head in a dustbin with a food blender and randomly push the buttons whilst beating the outside with a spoon to a modern 'hip-hop' beat.As I only enjoyed just over half of it, I can only give half marks. EUPHORIA CDs have always been superb (the older trance ones especially!) but this one falls short of their usual quality of track selection. If you're an electro house/complextro fan I would say buy it, but don't listen to the third CD unless you know the tracks. TNGHT - Higher Ground is the worst of the bunch and no idea how this even made it onto a cd, maybe some deaf 'youfs' play it full whack in their bedrooms or chavmobiles and it attracts stupid people with money.There are a few surprises mixed among the rubbish but overall I would say it was OK, not great, but certainly not terrible either.The biggest surprise came after some of the tripe on the second CD in the form of Monsta - Messiah, a surprisingly good track that I had not heard before and certainly saved the second CD along with Madeon's immense track... The City. An old but very well produced piece of music by a 16/17 year old French kid (yes he is 18 now but not when he produced the City)

I have almost all the Euphoria albums, I buy this sorta thing for very long driving sessions up and down the UK and overseas, but I don't know what has happened to the Euphoric selection process with this particular outing, but it's not what they usually serve up. Maybe it's those crappy legal highs or summet? But this is definitely a let down album from them. Also a little confused because I thought they had moved over to the Ministry Of Sound, yet this is nothing at all to do with the Ministry. Have I been diddled here??? Have a been'n'gone and purchased a foreign 'sounds a lot like' album???? I hope not.Think I'm gonna check things with the Ministry Of Sound to see if I've been diddled.Anyway, I gave this to a car full of young Germans whilst on the Autobahn just near to Frankfurt, let's hope they liked it. Then again, with the faces they were pulling I'm surprised they weren't dancing just to engine noises hahahaha.Peace out brethrens.

Various tunes, some I know and some I do notLove the variation and can listen to it all day, but good as a feel good albumDepending on taste will depend whether you will recommend it. I think its just great

Excellent value for money

lovely CD with some of the best dance tracks of the year. i used to buy loads of music from the artists to play in my iPod but i realized that just by buying this CD i can get majority of the tracks i like to listen at and also is way cheaper than pay 99p a track when you can get 60 for around £10

grate cd just what you want to liven up the party or even if you just sittin around chillin at home also good speedy delivery

not my thing but bought for my daughter and she loves it

thought this music cd would be great & upbeat , to help through the housework . Its ok but very repetitive and one blends to another without you noticing .
