it's on the weekly top shelves, it will definitely be picked up by more than the usual crowd.

Hixxy's disc is strange indeed! It's not the usual clean, predictable mixing we are used to on compilations these days.
I guess he tried to make it more experimental? :P
I like what he did in body flow, with the Electric cuts, but mixing You're My Angel in the breakdown.. as tight as it may be... not sure yet! XD

oh my god.. just listened to the mixing on hixxys cd now you highlighted it..
Sorry hixxy but that is diabolical..
moving a fader halfway through the second section of a song into a breakdown is bloody awful
i could have done a better job on my itunes

Bought mine. Not as bad as i thought it was gonna be, but still not a great album. Chris Unknown's disc was the better of the 3.

I appreciate that Hixxy was trying to be the most creative of the 3 discs, but what the hell 15 going on 16 just threw the entire set out the window for me. It was so off I readjusted my music settings just to see if it wasn't a glitch and the song was coming in too early. There's some good stuff here but I had to sift through the mixes to get to the good parts which is something that shouldn't happen on a mixed CD.
