      Re: Balance 010 - Jimmy van M

      So... let me be the first one to be really disappointed with this album.

      "Uptempo"-Disk? He must be joking. The only tracks one could really
      dance to are tracks 5-8. Thats an amount of 4 uptempo-tracks in CD #3.

      CD2 is full of average music, lots of melodies included.
      Haven?t listened to Disk 1 though. I?m afraid I could fell asleep.

      So after my disappointment with Masiello and Mojo I won?t buy any Balance-CD
      until I first listened to it via Soulseek...

      Just my 2 cents...

        Good luck find them on soulseek. I want to listen to this before I buy b/c I keep hearing mixed reviews about but I think I am just going to buy and judge for self unless some kind of miracle happens I do get to listen to it first.

          Do you know if this will be available on beatport, djdownload, etc.? CD's are kind of a waste for me personally.

            Agreed. Masiello and Mojo's ones were terrible. I wont be getting JVM's because I'm sure it will be the same. The balance series should take a close look at itself. Prog heads have sworn by it since the downfall of GU.

            If I were the good folk behind the series I'd start getting some cutting edge DJs back on board.

                  Slightly OT, but does anyone know where I can find (or have a recording) of the set he played at Pacha, BA, that plays on his site?

                  It's really good.

                          Buy it. I think it is pretty good. I liked all 3 cds on the 1st listen. But only time will tell on which one I will listen to the most. I guess it just kinda depends on your mood I guess.

                              Got this in the mail today and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed also. The first two cd's are great for what they are, but just not what I had in mind. The music doesn't really stand out. It shines at times, but a release like this should be more interesting and groundbreaking. Nothing too special on the first two discs. The third disc is very good and almost makes me wish this album would have only been one disc. If Jimmy wanted to do three discs, he shouldv'e followed Fortier in his approach. 1 very good disc out of 3, makes this album average. It's still a good purchase, but I can assure only the third disc will get play time out of me.

                              Music is the answer, to your problems. Keep on movin', till you solve them.

                                his bedrock cd is a classic
                                does this compare at all to that one?
