The first various-artists-on-CD release from one of the most adventurous and consistent labels of the early 2000s, this package comes with an unmixed disc of previously released tracks and exclusives, along with a blinding 33-track mix from label associate .

Points of interest: 's quick-step necro- in 's depth-charge electronic body music in and where sets the sound of a rusted roller coaster swaying in a stiff wind to a cosmic thump. Above all, there's 's gut-punching a potential nausea-inducing experience in which the mechanized handclaps seem to be the only element not twisting and warping. knows these tracks inside out, covers lots of ground, and provides a trip of a trip through the label's back catalog. It's one of the best mixes made available in 2005. Not to be completely outstripped, disc one is attractive by itself.

Like elders , has grown and thrived at the same time. Their releases are almost as reliable as the sleek, die-cut sleeves they come in. ~ Andy Kellman
