Even the best have their off-mixes. This most consistent of trance DJs appears to have a problem on MMII dealing with what is essentially just a collection of tracks, as opposed to the seamless mix we've grown accustomed to from Diggity Dig. Of course, some of those cuts are magnificent. Darren Emerson's previously unavailable remix of 108 Grand's "Te Quiero" is addictive trance nectar, while Spooky's "Belong (Vocal Club Mix)" is a memorable slice of electro-trance. But overall, this one is strictly for the Digger maniacs out there. Those wanting the true Digweed mixperience will find smoother examples in both his Global Underground sets and his self-titled Bedrock double-disc. --Steffan Chirazi

Product Description
From the world's #1 DJ this 10 track release is weird in all the right places, with splashes of loneliness here and there, but deliberate and to the point, it's a diverse mix of the new and old, the known and the soon to be known. A little more musical and a little less dark than what you may expect from John, MMII fills in the gaps that some of the more conventional recent mix compilations have created. 2002.

4 out of 5 stars A more melodic/somber side of Progressive House ..........2004-12-17

Normally, when one thinks of John Digweed, one thinks of deep, banging progressive house. Not here. This is Digweed's most somber mix yet, sounding more akin to a Northern Exposure release than any of his Global Underground releases. Digger does pick up the pace about midway through the mix, but this is more of a mood piece than a club mix. And like any mix album, there are some awesome tracks, and there are some stinkers too. Lonely Planet's 'Pollon' has a resonatingly beautiful synth loop that will immediately catch your ear, while Pole Folder & CP's 'Dust' is a beautiful, spacy down-tempo piece with some beautiful vocals and nice ambient washing synths. On the more up-tempo side, James Holden's 'I Have Put Out The Light' is absolutely chilling, while Spooky's 'Belong' has an addictive house groove and a gorgeous female vocal, both of which you'll be humming for weeks. The best track goes to Darren Emerson's phenomenal remix of 108 Grand's 'Te Quiero', with it's multiple layers of beautiful swirling melodies and bouncing beat. The rest of the tracks range from average, to annoying (as in the case of Sean Q6's 'Of Course'). So while this isn't Digweed's best effort, it most certainly isn't bad, and is recommended to anyone who enjoys the more melodic, somber side progressive house.

5 out of 5 stars Why does everyone call this a chilled out album ?.......2004-12-11

First after reading everyone else's reviews why is this being classified as a chill out album. Nonsense have any of u listened to this on a Beating system it freaking rocks out. That's the thing with Digweed though his stuff is almost too deep. The more u listen the better it gets. If u think the cd rocks check him out live u will never be the same.

Also for people that like this definitely check out his Global Underground Los Angeles double disc.

5 out of 5 stars Progressive dub house pushed..........2004-10-13

This mix is amazing! I heard it when it came out and wasn't too impressed cause I was into the more darker tracks Digweed usually plays. On a second listen I realized that there aren't one but two classic early Underworld remixes on here, played back to back and mixed as fluently as Digweed always does. "Te Quiero" is a early Emerson remix (not as good as his first "Gat Decor") and then the next song "Black Sky" is a slow burning Underworld remix that I've had for ages and always wanted to hear mixed on a proper CD. This CD is worth it for these two tracks alone. The rest of these tracks, some old, some new are as compelling and properly placed as any Digweed CD. Buy this, listen to many times...

5 out of 5 stars Don't Be Hating..........2004-06-10

Just because an artist decides to do something alittle off thier path, doesn't mean it's a bad thing. It's always good when Digweed does something anyways. His track selection is quite logical and flows naturally. A bit over the top when he edits the tracks to serve his purpose, but it doesn't distract from the beauty of the songs. Listen and enjoy!
