Perfecto Presents: Type 01

URB Magazine
"..Seb’s moved up a level and he’s playing at the same level as people like Oakenfold and Sasha & Digweed."

Product Description
With Seb’s sound fully realized at both his club and on his non-stop global tour dates, it was fitting for Seb to launch the natural continuation of his legendary Prototype mix album series in the form of Type. With one eye on his established sound, and one eye on the future of electronic music, Seb puts forth his strongest effort to date on Type. The tracklisting is filled with tough, chunky, digital-edged house music (which Seb deems "electronic house"), and represents one of the most forward thinking efforts ever put forth on a Perfecto compilation. The mix also includes two Fontaine original productions: the funky chugger "Do The Do" produced with Jay P, and the soon to be huge "Need to Feel Loved", produced under the Reflekt moniker. Progressive, electro, trance, and house heads will all find something to like about this mix…

Customer Reviews:

Yeah, it's solid. But it could've been more; not a bad party choice........2007-01-27

What initially attracted me to this album were the incredibly infectious, hard-hitting beat-loops which caught me completely off guard as I listened to it at the record store. I decided to buy it, and I'm not REGRETTING the decision, but there are a few more albums with such intensity (perhaps ISOS3? Solarstone's Destinations Vol. 1?) which I would have rather spent my money on. But, this CD is strong.

Fontaine leads us through a two-disc myriad of breakbeat, thumping dance music. If clubs wont play progressive, minimal, melodic/vocal and tech house/trance, this is next in line. But dont mistake that: In its own right, this CD in every way belongs in a dark, anonymously misty and heart-thumping bass filled room crowded with Hi-NRG ravers and casual dancers alike.

Particularly on disc 1, however, the mix selections could have been just... well, just better. I HATE the track 'tweakin' (Saeed Mix), with its repetitive and glammed up song line, 'we, be tweakin, like every single weekend we be tweakin'. There are only so many times I can hear that line, in one single song, before having to skip ahead. My sanity depends on it. I liked the opening Noho Porn Stars' "More Intensity" which flows nicely into Rene Amesz's "Back Into the Funk", but unfortunately the antecedent to that track is "Tweakin'". I cant get past that fallacy of a track in its inopportunely placed location! I have tried.

I'll say a few short words on disc 2, because in terms of elaborative criticism there isnt much to be said. One standout track, and whose remix I really enjoyed by Fontaine, was Sander Kleinenberg's "My Lexicon" [Stef & 16 Bit Lolita Remix], as I am always excited to see it appear after being introduced to it on one of Sasha's Global Underground releases (Ibiza, I believe it was...). Otherwise, a great combination of breakbeat, hard-hitting and sometimes melodic trance without as much annoying vocal intrusion as the first disc. A good buy, especially if you need something accessible to bring to a party centered around consistently danceable music. I'd probably include this disc along with The Politics of Dancing 2 ~ Paul van Dyk and maybe Emersons GU015: Uruguay. I'm not saying these releases sound alike at all; merely that they could concievably serve the same purpose when proposed for a party; that is, to get people funkified and in the mood to party!

Solid.......2006-09-17

A good exemplification of hard house here. I'm kinda impressed although like another review it reminds me of Sander K, maybe because he was just in my player. Some tracks are borderline tribal with the drums banging, but overall, a hard house album for the pleasant ear. Cool vocal interludes. The second disc displays originality and it blew me off my toes. Especially with the tracks Outrowz "Wrong!" and Sander K's "My lexicon".

Disc 1: 3.5 stars
Disc 2: 5 stars

One of Perfectos best!.......2006-04-19

Damn this is great. After listening to Fabric 20 I decided to get more house music.

Now if this isn't house I don't know what this is but all I know this is some sick $hit!

At first it was kinda crazy cause I was expecting something like Fabric 20 but what I got instead was better.

CD1 is so great on track selection and mixed so great. (After the third time listening to this CD a finally saw the beauty of it. And I was left speechless).

CD2 Damn he starts with a great song in the beginning which grabs your attention and sensation to dance and almost to the whole album he will keep mixing good.(But in the middle it kinda gets boring)

Verdict: 5.0 out of 5.0 This is great and you need to give this album a couple of spins before actually enjoying this. Seb mixes great on. Buy this I loved this one!

has its moments.......2006-02-12

As a whole these cd's are not Seb's best work. But if you like the 'commercial' sound of Oakie then you will love it. He has definately replaced a lot of his regular funk and edge for some atmosphere and POPie baselines. The standouts on cd1 are "Tweakin", and Saeed and Palash's "Champion "which by the way is a bangin track. Cd2's standouts are #4 "wrong" and #5 "Lexicon".

As always Seb's mixing is utterly flawless, i would almost say that all of his cd's are laid out by a computer if i haden't seen him spin personally. Definately has its funky and 'chunky' moments but not often. I know that all artist have to move foreward or get left behind but we have enuf Oakies in the world.

Best DJ Album of 2005.......2005-11-30

Be prepared to warehouse style. This set takes you to so many adventures. Well done Seb, it is been a long time for me that i did not hear a set like this. This album will be around my classics "definitely".

The best album of 2005.

And second place goes to deep dark mix of "Anthony Pappa - Balance 006".
