Still holds up.......2007-07-24

This mix album absolutely stands out among bland big label mixes of the time. There's nothing cut & paste about it, tracks are truly 'blended' (MIXED) and the selection from one to the next is superb. From the tribal funk jump off on track 1 to the space disco to the Mills classic to the intense techno throwdown by the time Mike Dearborn's remix of Aphrohead's track Legion throbs in your brain, Carl destroys it the whole time. In fact, you can take this as a real example of Cox's mixing as a lot of his sets around the time this disc came out include any/all of these tracks. So, he wasn't just shilling out some garbage for Moonshine when he put this together. It's records he plays, which hardly any DJs who made "mix" albums for major labels in the mid to late 90's were doing. And almost 10 years later the tracks are banging.

Buyer Beware.......1999-03-30

BASE is not Carl Cox's best work. A few years ago, I saw Cox at a club in NYC and went out the next day and bought FACT2 -- a dancing/clubbing/chilling/relaxing masterpiece. No matter what kind of mood you're in it will bring you to a groovy place. It's still one of my favorites.

BASE has very little in common with FACT2. It feels hastily put together, almost like Cox couldn't decide what kind of mood he wanted. Lots of mediocre dance tracks here, nothing you would particularly want to listen to outside of a tremendously loud club, the only place you could possibly appreciate this album (and even then maybe not).

If you loved FACT2, do yourself a favor and save your money. Chances are you're going to be disappointed.

Carl Cox is phat!.......1999-03-24

I had the honor of seeing Carl Cox spinning a few weeks ago at one of his few stateside appearances. It was one of the best parties I have ever been to. Carl Cox, spinning on three turntables for over three hours, had elevated the party into the stratosphere and I have no doubt in my mind that he is the number one DJ in the world. I definately recommend this album as well as any other of Carl Cox's collections. Be on the look out for "Phuture 2000" as well. URB described this album best, "The mixing is flawless and the music is driving, but never speedcore; hypnotic, but not tedious; accesible, but yet totally cutting edge. Carl Cox reigns supreme."
