Circuit Party's strongest, peak hour anthem mixes .......2005-05-09
On Circuit Party 4 (discs 1&2) Peter Rauhofer mixes the biggest club hits here instead of the more tribal stuff he does on his live@roxy compilations. I'm a bit disappointed that the rare mix of Lulu is such a short edit, but it's great to get the essential part of Friburn & Urik's brilliant Take Me Love Me on CD-all that's really missing are the excessively long beat-only intro and outro. Disc 2 is a smorgasbord of hot dance styles, from upbeat to dark, and like disc 1, has the benefit of having basically a full length version of a friburn & urik mix, this time, Vicki Sue Robinson's Move On.
Circuit Party 5, Disc 3&4, starts off with very repetitive, instrumental tribal and hardhouse tracks. Disc 3 has a couple of standout vocal tracks, including a shortened version of the Hex Hector mix of Shannon, The amazing Johnny Vicious mix of "Show Me", and a pretty long version of the vinyl-only plasmic honey mix of Deborah harry-which to me, makes up for some of the more tedious moments on this disc. Overall, things pick up in the second half, and there were a couple of hot tracks I'd never heard before, including the incredible vocal track Vibe. On Disc 4, we once again begin with some repetitive stuff. Track 2 is filled with pops from the vinyl used. We get to some amazing vocal anthems-Void, Jump for Joi (the brilliant Santana mix), Encore-surrounded by a bit of filler, but also some really slammin' hardhouse tracks, like People get Down and Higher. And the awesome "everybody", which loops the string opening of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach" into a real stomper. A good set, but geared more towards true club fans, and not the casual party mix lover.
Circuit Party 6 (Discs 5&6), keeps the party pumpin' with some of the most pounding tracks around. There's barely a bad track in the bunch, if not a few that have been overplayed. Only complaint here is that I wish Vernessa Mitchell's "Issues" had been closer to the full length of the 12" single. Disc 2 is more of the same, with perhaps a bit more filler and less strong vocal. But it ends strong with diva anthems by Pat Hodges and Ultra Nate.

buh buh BAD.......2002-10-01
Here it is, the stuff I try to warn others about so they don't do the same stupid thing I did: purchase any circuit party album. Take your pic, each and every one of them is the worst that techno or dance has to offer, [boomboomboomboomboomboom] with barely a change in beat. Yes, there are some vocals, but not very good ones, the beats that are there are just awful. This is a very boring series, and not worth a penny.
Great Dance Compilation.......2001-01-10
This 2 CD compilation features the latest dance hits playing in thje clubs today. This CD features the hit song NAKED WITHOUT YOU (Thunderpuss remix) by Taylor Dayne. It also has the Pet Shop Boys NEW YORK CITY BOY. Great compilation
Sweat Appeal.......2000-08-27
When Peter Rauhofer is on, it's easy to title him Lord rauhofer, because for instances only the music exists. Well, on this cd peter mixes for broad audiences, so its mass appeal allows everybody to find something. Its hard to imagine any DJ being able to capture the atmosphere and essence of a real circuit party; for example, to compare this cd to Peter's playing at Blueball 2000 in Philly would be unfair simply because he does such a good job playing the crowd. But as far as cd's go, this one covers a large spectrum of the house music world. Sure he appeals to more mainstream listening with his inclusion of big draw names like taylor dayne, veronica, pet shop boys, donna summer and yaz. But it is the more techno heavy songs like Disco Cop, Shake It and Monk E Dreams that set the mood. On top of that, peter does take us on a journey of the mind by slowing it down every so often, alowing us to refuel. In my opinion, songs like the trancy Feel Free and soulful Do It Properly and Big Love create the mood, preventing it from becoming just another beat heavy Cd. he even gets a little disco-happy with Can't Get Enough, and follows that with a lovely, feel good song by charlotte- Someday. all things said, its very hard to argue with any cd that suceeds in mixing the big remixers Calderone, Friburn and Urik, Club 69, Razor N' Guido, Thunderpuss and Johnny Vicious. If one truly listens to the music, its obvious that Peter tries to be all-inclusive, from the seasoned circuit boys right down to the tender and trepid. And by doing so in a smooth, flowy manner, Lord Peter prepares us for the real thing.
Old favorites & New Rug-Cutters.......2000-08-21
While not exactly on the "cutting Edge", this CD is about as good as a "dance hits" compilation gets. There are several old club favorites from YAZ (Situation 99), and Vicki Sue Robinson (Move On). But it's the hot 'Thunderpuss' remix of PET SHOP BOYS' (New york City Boy), FRIBURN & URIK (Take Me, Love Me), and other newer songs that make this 2 CD package worthwhile.
The only area where this CD needs improvement is conceptual: it seems to be aimed more at the general audience for dance music than Circuit Party boys. The producers play it too safe, and this CD ends up sounding like too many other collections of great dance songs. A wilder, more adventurous set of breakbeats, loops, trance sounds, etc. would have been a big risk (and with music being downloaded off the 'net instead of bought, minimizing risks is a major consideration for artists & producers), but it would have made for a more distinctive CD -- one more characteristic of the best Circuit Parties.
Overall, though, it's an excellent effort. Recommended.
