this one is a double cd. 2nd cd is mixed by dj guy salama. well anyways here's the tracklist:

01 liquid troll (remix 2004)
02 sub6 & michele adamson - ra he'ya
03 psy craft - top gun
04 space cat - trance former
05 astrix & dj highguy - chaos
06 psysex - dirty 80's (remix)
07 cosma - yok yok
08 black & white - animaldo
09 xerox & infected mushroom - acid killer (1999)
10 shulman - small gray cretures (illumination remix)

the artwork is somewhat lame/ugly/cheesy/commercial/etc but let's not judge the album by its cover.
t1 we go pretty much straight down to business. hi-hats, a bassline and the kickdrum, is there more to it? at the moment it's the same on fool on formula i'm so so sick of. wouldn't mind dancing to this, but for home listening, no thanks! did i hear a bong? some what cool german homo-o-vocoder changes the tune from somewhat same ol fool on to somewhat original sounding piece of music. sorry, i still require more than this. wouldn't really stand out at a party, would be just another tune to dance to. am i too mean? well sorry but hearing this music for, well a long time sort of does take my expectations high. ah yes, a melody. pretty uplifting one. ok, now that we are almost at the end i can actually grant that i do enjoy this tune. so it's official, it's a killer.
t2 this is the reason i bought this compilation in the first place. to be honest this tune was more than praised in more than 10 places by more than 50 people, so yeah, i had to hear it myself. and yes, sub6 is definetly one of those really promising new acts. gotta love it. ra he'ya du, ra he'ya du, boooou. and then that disturbed electronic guitar thingy. all that other weirdness. good, good! i know you like it. groovy, original, twisted, gotta love it. bye bye bye go to my room... gotta smile. if only all fool on would be like this.. oh my
t3 psycraft, never was a big fan of them, but lets see. maybe they've come closer to my taste, you never know. hmmm. i wonder if this is still the sub6 track. no it's the psycraft one already. i like it! guitar is always welcome. this tune sounds pretty electric and organized. ah vocoder again! me like it. i just simply luv vocoders. uuuuh and a female voice! go away, go away, go away. don't know why but this kinda reminds me of psysex. by the way this bassline isn't too traditional fool on one. the 2nd part of the track is guitar driven and a little more agressive. but the aguistic guitar is there too. how nice of psycraft to include it =)
t4 space cat.. hmm. no fucking around, straight down to dance floor killing, that's how it should be in party. i hate those looooong breaks when you finally gotta stop dancing cos there simply isn't any rhythm to move to. the people connected with shiva don't seem to mind em. then again they probably wouldn't mind if there even wasn't for music. but i'm there for the music. and this is the treatment i want! ah that sounds old school. well this one isn't in my opinion special at all. sure it's energic/uplifting/etc but i need more!
t5 astrix. granted, he's done a few incredible tunes. then again most of his tunes sound the same ol shit to me. well lets see. ah, this one i've definetly heard before. maybe at samothraki? this is pretty fast one. it has this pounding sound that wont go away. nice little detail. the uplifter at 00:50 is nicey nice. and the little piece of "melody" fter it. that's the familiar but. bongas join in. oh goodie nice melody dominating the track at 02:30. flute or a female voice? can't tell. that's the fun part of it. the cool part of it is the fact that it sounds cool. yes good track!
t6 i love the original version so i was really eager to hear this one. the mix between that astrix tune and this one is pretty long, over a minute! but here we go. yes it sounds familiar yet different, but i didn't hear the lovely "what is this shit" sample. what's going on?? ah there it was! =) gotta smile. well it's more or less the same track with 2003 fool on bass+kick formula. i do like it. it's not shit. it's great! psysex is one of israelis finest fool on acts, definetly the most unique one. spooky synths. ah effects on top of it.
t7 there are people who found cosma's debut the best album of tha year it was released in. then there are people who found it the most overrated album of that year. i belong to the second group. and sorry this one is the same old fool on with the same old tricks and formulas. i'm sure i'll get some hate mail cos of my opinion, but you know what, in the end i don't care. if a doesn't like b's music does it make a a bad alfabet? no! ok at two minute mark there was pretty dramatic change. do i hear a melody? yes i do! do i like it? yes i do! ok it's not that bad tune actually. it's pretty good one to tell the truth. personally i would have cut the first 2 minutes away but that's just me. =) oh no =( 04:40 it's the same ol shit again. =( sorry guys, i just don't like it..
t8 oops. =) it was the beginning of black and white's animaldo what i didn't like, not the end of cosma's yok yok =). well disturbed samples are always nice, cheesy "prepare for journey" ones too. and uh! that flocking thingy sounds SO familiar. it's from some psysex tune for sure! the dubby one from another life! what's it called again? checking psyshop.. ah yes "Survival kit (Koopa Troopa's dub mix)" well so basicly this is a little rip of of that tune but i still like it. i don't give a shit! all i care of is the sound =). but hey, in the end this tune is nothing fantastic, mediocore at its best..
t9 i wonder if i've even heard this one before. maybe at a party. maybe not. lets see. it sounds pretty un fool onnish. it's not patternized and it doesn't have that fool on 2003 bass+kick formula thingy. well past the 2 minute mark already and i can't really find anything extraordinary here. obviously i haven't found anything before the mark either. sure doesn't sound like mushies casual catchy style, which i kinda like. mayb xeror did the bigger work here?
t10 this is one of my all time fav tunes. let's see what illumination has done to it. a total rape? different but interesting version? lets see, lets see! the beginning is pretty much the same than in the original. dissapears to the mix though. we've got the fool on formula and a familiar sample and a funny synth and more familiar stuff and more full on stuff and and and and basicly it sounds great.. lets put it this way: IT SOUNDS GREAT..

so?
who would i recommend this album to?
1. all fool on heads
2. all who are interested what's going on in the fool on world at the moment, this album definetly represents the cutting edge of this particular genre.
3. all not so interested ones (i belong to this group).. give fool on a chance.. yu just might like it..
4. people who haven't heard #2, #3, #5, #6, #10
5. is such thing as intelligent full on exists.. well this is it people!

yeah that's it..

though it smell like a very commerical compilation, it has some good tracks, but i'm not sure if it's worth buying, only if you have some extra money.
my favorites: 1,5,6,7,8,9           u can find "Anything U Want" using the search...

Well sure it looks/seems commercial, after all it was done with a radio station. But that doesn't change the way it sounds..           "The dinosaurs became extinct because they didn't have a space program."
