first off let me get this out the way.. this album was much needed. a great way to start off 2009. heavily sample based and extremely fun. a must for any dj or house listener. what struck me so sharply about this record is how it’s not taken very serious but the production is so strong and even ground breaking at times. it’s something i’ll be listening to for a long time to come. the tracks are cut dj length and nothing is missing from the album. it spans from tech to fidget back to chunk and the samples used keep it interesting throughout. personally hoping to catch mr. rose with claude von stroke and justin martin march 27th in miami. 5 star album without question. if it’s a steak it’s well done.option4
