Unbelievable!.......2007-04-27

I been DJing for 13 years. I have over 35,000 records. Hard to believe but this CD is THE BEST compilation EVER released for old school style breakbeat "techno" (i hate that word). Every track on here is fire (except for the Smart E's)! I still rock this CD to get me amped almost 15 years after I first got it. All the tracks on here were rocked at all the early-mid 90s "raves" (i hate that word). If you're a DJ who uses Serato this CD is a must-have. I'd pay several hundred dollars to get all these classic joints on vinyl. Buy it. Rrr-Rrr-Rrr-Rrr-Roll the beats...

still sik after all these years.......2005-02-24

I have to agree with most of the other folks here, this is a fantastic disc... and I also have to agree that the primary reason are the Acen tracks. Out of all of the different mixes that came out, these versions of "Trip II the Moon" and "Close Your Eyes" are still my favorites (and they are hard to find anywhere else), and they still kick SIK! and make me wanna jump up! which is pretty hard to do since I'm a jaded old-timer now. :)

I bought this five disc box-set ("Best of Techno") back in the day, but Volume 3 (this one) is my favorite one. Each disc was put out by Profile between 1991 and 1994 and many of the tracks are prerelease or rarer mixes, so it's a great collection.

But beyond the Acen tracks there are several great tracks here. The N.R.G. track, "I Need Your Love" has the famous Korgis sample from their 1979 pop track "Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime". "I'm So High" by Eden Transmission takes me right back to wondering if that whispering voice was in MY head. :) Yes, there's that semi-famous Sesame's Treet song... but that one's a bit too "candy-raver" for me. But hey, an early Joey Beltram track, what more do you want? This disc is worth the money. Man, this disc is worth the money just for the two Acen tracks, seriously.

This compilation truly represents a high-water-mark from the dawn of breakbeat techno and many (if not most) of the tracks will still impress people today. If you're a breakbeat fan, buy it used (since I think they are out of print)... and it'll be the best $5 you'll spend on music this year, or any year.

This is a MUST HAVE compilation........2002-05-16

This cd has an excellent variety of "early" rave and techno classics... including the infamous "Trip II the Moon" and "Close Your Eyes" (both by Acen.) These two tracks are worth the entire recording alone (and are rare as noted earlier.) They (esp. Trip II the Moon) were ahead of their time, and friends have a hard time believing they were made in 1993. The sounds presented on this compilation (for the most part) were cutting edge (and still are as they are very unique and have set the standard the even current techno tries to adhere to.) There are many lush styles that did not become "main stream" (in the Techno scene) until much later... i.e. breakbeat. There are even styles that have yet to be emulated, therefore making this CD sound just as modern (perhaps even more so) than most techno (and sub genres) of today, making this a very unique compilation. BUY THIS NOW!!!!

Hit and Miss Dance Classix.......1999-12-31

You should get this cd for "Trip II the Moon" and "Close Your Eyes" because they are amazing trax and are very hard to find. I remember the first time i heard "close your eyes." they are 2 classic gems from the early 90s by Acen. Other highlights include the infamous "sesame street techno song"--"Sesame's Treet" and other early hardcore anthems.

GREAT COMPILATION BUY IT.......1999-09-04

This was one of the first tapes i bought in '93 and i still lsiten to it... With all rave classics like Acen Close your Eyes, and Trip 2 the Moon and other outstanding tracks on this album i highly reccommend it to anyone!!!

A gateway drug, nothing more, nothing less. .......2007-03-11

To say that this album constitutes a necessity for the classical music enthusiast would be a great big unarguable lie. It has nothing innovative to offer you as a listener, except for maybe the labelling of melodies such as "My Heart Will Go On" (that god-awful Love Theme from the gruesome film Titanic) as a worthy member of "Best Classics 100". But than again, every collection of things that does not naturally belong together, is bound to have at least one outcast where the connection clearly isn't based on anything but cost and sale-ability.

This might sound like the beginning of a CD-slaughter, or a snobbish review where only the Deutche Grammophone's recordings are meting my standards, but although I am fairly picky when it comes to musical collections, best of albums, and such horrifying destructions of the universality of the works and the intentions of the artist behind it, I am willing to give this collection another chance, since classical music is somewhere between Arabic and wine in degree of unmanageability. It also helps that all the tunes are familiar to almost every one of us, and the fact that the artists' intentions probably got killed by the hundreds of different conductors trying to convey their personal interpretation of the works.

What I am saying is that this CD can be to classical music enthusiast what 'absolute rock' can be to a rock enthusiast, or to someone slightly interested, with no conceptual frames of where to start the search for knowledge. "Best Classics 100" offers nothing except a selection of melodies where there's bound to be one for every taste, but where the album feeling, the entirety or completeness intended by the composer, or conductor, or performer is completely lost in a trade-off made with variety.

The collection is attempted organised by giving each CD a different theme, supposedly to describe the mood of the music, and the labeller succeeds only to a limited extent as we move from themes such as 'uplifting' and 'relaxing' towards 'golden'. I wonder what that golden feeling constitutes. It apparently is to be found in, amongst others, "Jesus Bleibet Meine Freunde", and in "My Heart Will Go On"?

But no matter how I try to describe this CD it will sound worse than it actually is. This because to me it works as a great reference to which I can always turn with my classical music questions. Was it Schumann or Schubert who were the sad one? Of all the -inis, which where which again? Who composed "O Mio Babbino Caro"? The starting point for finding out if you belong to the romantic or the renascence wing, lies within this assemblage, if you look with your ears.

If you feel that classical music is something you like, and you'd like to learn more about it, this is a way to get started. If used together with a book on classical music, or wikipedia, it can be a gateway drug, leading you towards the great different experiences to be found within the different genres of classical music, and within the different periods ranging from the 12th century, maybe even earlier, towards yesterdays and tomorrows spectacular compositions of melodies that conveys a feeling, a state of mind with much more precision than any other musical genre. Expect a fairly alright collection of classical prunes, and you won't be disappointed.

Decent Selection, But..........2005-04-21

...The Audio Quality is really not great. I bought this CD because I am new to classical, and the price was great! 100 songs for 25 bucks, thats like 25 cents a song, most songs are 1 dollar or more. Now I know why it's cheaper. The audio quality isn't that good. I imported the entire collection to my computer using Apple Lossless, and it sounded fuzzy, not crisp, with background noise, and sounded like compressed music, cutting off the frequency response.
I then played the CD's through my home stereo, with the same results. I plugged in my SHURE E5c headphones and the sound was soft, uninviting, lacking punch, with significant backgound noise (not just from the headphones), which was especially distracting when the music would get softer. I have heard much of the music before, and it was much more dynamic, entertaining, this recording seems too flat.
The music selection is ok, but I was hoping for some more interesting selections from the vast classical genre.
Overall, not that great of a recording, but many might not notice the difference, so if you are new to classical or aren't like an audiophile, get this album because it's a great overview of pop-culture classical, and it's pretty inexpensive.

A must-have classical music set!.......2005-01-06

Classical music is, by far, my favorite type of music. It can make you happy or sad, it can make you laugh or cry, and it can make you want to fall asleep or get up and dance. This 6-disc set is a must-have for and classical music-lover! It has all the great composers like Handel, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Bach, and Pachelbel. Some great songs include: Canon In D(Pachelbel), Morning: Peergynt(Grieg), Adagio For Strings(Barber), Cavatina(Myers), and much, much more. Every classical song you can think of is on here and the sound quality is great. So if you're looking for a good classical music CD, this set is all you need. Be prepared to be blown away!

This is the third in the series of compilation discs assembled by Robert Aubry Davis, host and producer of the long-standing public radio series Millennium of Music. Where volume two of the series drew on music for the Christmas season, this volume concentrates on music for Holy Week and Easter; more interestingly, it draws from the rich and varied catalog of early music recordings distributed in the U.S. by Qualiton Imports under the "Gioia Antiqua" imprint. Possibly the most valuable thing about this is that it features lesser-known performers right alongside well-established, highly respected groups such as the Orlando Consort and the Bach Collegium Japan (both in fine form here). Of course, with such a variety of lesser-known ensembles and small labels, this juxtaposition flatters some of these artists more than others. Some appear quite impressive (Schola Gregoriana Pragensis and Ensemble Daedalus, for example); others seem not ready for prime time (Westfälische Kantorei and the Spanish choir Musica Ficta). A particular treat is a medieval motet played by the legendary Dutch recorder trio Sour Cream (one of whose members was conductor Frans Brüggen). On a reasonably priced compilation disc like this, variable quality isn't a major drawback--use it to explore, find what appeals to you, and go on from there. It should be quite a stimulating endeavor. --Matthew Westphal

Spiritually Moving.......2006-02-13

A beautiful selection of mostly choral pieces from the Baroque and pre-Baroque era. The choices are a mix of the familiar and unfamiliar which make listening to this a pleasure. Chosen for the Easter season, the selections are spiritually moving and will put you in touch with all that is sacred and holy. Performance is impeccable and the sound is rich, resonating with the lofty space of a cathedral.
