Yes, every collection of electronica claims to consist entirely of "gems" or "classics" or "greats." In this case, though, the claim is pretty well borne out by the content.

Yes, every collection of electronica claims to consist entirely of "gems" or "classics" or "greats." In this case, though, the claim is pretty well borne out by the content.

Moby is here with his very quiet "Blue Paper," and Fila Brazillia takes care of the requisite retro-lounge entry with their delightfully Eurotrashy "Mammon Dad." Other featured artists are less well known, but no one drops the ball; this album offers a solid 76 minutes of chilled-out electronic bliss. Recommended. ~ Rick Anderson, Rovi
