    James Zabiela Renaissance

    Have been listening to disk 1 for the last couple days. I am surprised not many people have mentioned how good it is. I like disk 1 better than 2. Any comments??

        he has a tendency to forget what threads he posts in, it must be becase he is upside down

                  Re: James Zabiela Renaissance

                  Ive got it.

                  Listened to it through once.

                  Not initially impressed.

                  Will try it again and hopefully will enjoy it some more, im usually a big fan of Zabiela's mixes but this just felt flat and uninspiring compared to the likes of Four.x and Sound in Motion.

                  I guess the bar has been raised very high lately with the likes of Danny howells mix collection

                    I'm halfway through disc one, and nothing special so far. There's a terrible cheesy robotic sounding riff in track 3 or 4. Turned me off.

                      the promo has a great groove to it

                      It was fun while it lasted...

                          disc one is so, so I am not a fan of Zabiela's mellow vibes...He is at his best when he is playing club music...disc 2 is gold but it does feel kinda short...he would have been better off doing a 2 cd mix of a faster kind of music.

                            listened to it twice wondering roung tokyo!

                            its nice! this with joris' balance there is hints at a melodic note coming back to the scene.

                            i like the d&b elements on disc 2 and i think that disc one is pretty damn good (but it hasnt been scrutinised effectively on the move)

                            4/4.5 stars!

                              CD1 is superb, haven't gotten further than track 3 of cd2.
