You think you know, but you have no idea. While you and the rest of your cool friends pray at the altars of DJs such as Oakenfold, Digweed and Maas, DJs like Irene are ruling the masses of America. This 17-year scene vet has learned a lot in her eternal tenure in the underground. Now she's the best-selling female DJ in the country, has legions of followers (many of whom represent the massive gay circuit she's always championed) and topped the Billboard Dance Charts with the single "You're the Worst Thing for Me" (as Pusaka with Thunderpuss' Chris Cox and Thea Austin).
On Phonosynthesis, Irene comes out swinging, dropping larger-than-life beats, pulse-quickening crescendos and freaky vocal samples to create her sexually charged club utopia soundtrack. Opening with a classic Karen Findley sample, she (wo)manhandles bombastic breakbeats (Terminalhead), straight hardcore (Omar Santana) and even drum & bass (Aphrodite). This is more an experience than a mix, the sound of someone out to rip you a new one (while seducing your girlfriend back to her hotel room for some real fun). I haven't heard anyone bang this hard since the last time I caught Chicago's Psycho Bitch assaulting a hometown crowd. Bring on the battle royale!

A disappointing album from a great DJ.......2004-02-19
That said, I don't really like this CD. It seems like there are enough popular songs so you'll think it will be easy to enjoy (eg: Tiesto, PPK, Cosmic Gate), but it never quite gels together in the same way her previous mixes have. Not only are there some pacing issues, but there's too many songs where I felt like hitting the skip button. Part of that for me is the increase in the amount of house on this CD, as I prefer a trancier sound. But on "Fearless" she kept the house/disco interesting, it never felt like it was dragging.
This CD dissapointed me, and I cannot recommend it. Get "Fearless" instead.
HARDCORE.......2004-02-15
