Reissuing old dance records can be dicey, because so many of them don't age well. There are exceptions, of course, like this digitally spiffed up and beautifully packaged, 3-disc Renaissance collection from Sasha and John Digweed. Released originally in 1994, it's become a milestone representing not only the celebrated duo's first recorded mix but also a snapshot of British dance at its raving, glorious peak. Disc 1 opens with a triplet of Leftfield's "Song for Life" and moves through still-potent tracks from Disco Evangelists ("De Niro") and F. Machine ("Child Bride"). The run continues on discs 2 and 3, as it lightly glides through Fluke's "Slide" and EMF's "They're Here." And what would a trip down amnesia lane be without a stop at Moby's "Go"? Nostalgia only goes so far, and some songs that sounded great at the time are a little soft now (see "Not Over Yet"). But that innocence gets at the heart of the collection's appeal, reminding us of when dance music seemed primed to take over the planet. -Matthew Cooke

2 out of 5 stars Yikes...Cheers to Electronica's Evolution.......2007-06-05

If you recognize the tracks by name and have a strong sense of nostalgia or you are a newcomer and are curious about what electronica sounded like in the early 90's then it may be worth your greenbacks. Otherwise save your pennies on this Renaissance novelty.

Three discs featuring very poorly aged tracks encompassing various genres during their early (but continual) evolution.

I try to stay clear of accusing DJ's (that I also consider artists) of in your face commercialism, but this compilation has me changing my tune slightly. Re-releasing a compilation from 1994 in 2005 seems like an easy way to sucker a few people into buying an old collection of severely outdated tracks. Apparently the market was there as the original release was selling for up to $400 as a collector's item.

If you are curious about the history of electronica, and more specificly, Sasha and Digweed's early (possible their first) commercial release then you may be satified with this three disc set. Otherwise there are much better "Mix Collections" out there that document electronica's evolution.

Disc 1 and 2 get 2/5 stars while disc 3 gets 3/5 stars (just for the fact that it doesn't have multiple re-mixes of the same track on it like discs 1 and 2 do).

4 out of 5 stars The Renaissance Men.......2007-01-13

Celebratory and expansive, house music (especially during its infancy) was never meant to be taken too seriously. It was (and still is) the musical embodiment of a very specific mood. It is fueled by adrenaline and charged by neural sparks of creativity that can be both feral and robotic. Like all mediums, its growing pains were sometimes evidenced by awkward (and incredibly embarassing) moments (see The Best of House series for a few good examples of these), but there were also shining moments of brilliance, like this three-disc set.

I disagree that this mix should be highly rated if for no other reason than because of its place in house history (unlike cars or stamps, the value of music rarely increases along with its age). However, I will say that many of these twelve-year-old cuts aren't just a testament to the leaps and bounds that house music made during its genesis (thanks in no small part to Sasha & Digweed), but some of them are still very relevant as markers of fine craftsmanship, especially in a genre that is threatened every year with death by dull monotony. This album -- one of the first of its kind to go gold, and single-handedly ensuring the fame of Sasha and Digweed as house music's most trusted ambassadors -- is everything that good club music still wants to be.

Okay, well, not everything. Even the Almighty S & D aren't immune to a little dating. Each of the three discs has patchy moments where the music misfires ("Tranceillusion"), skids on atonal redundancy ("House Stompin'"), or is just plain annoying ("Bombscare"). And for listeners familiar with S & D's latest oeuvre, some of the tunes will definitely sound a mite-bit backward. This is to be expected when you're listening to house music that's over a decade old.

But what's a pleasant surprise are the caramel-smooth progressions and transitions (the "Song For Life" trilogy), the skittery electro-tangles ("Slid"), and the ecstatic, round-house power hits ("Sublime"). Although the discs contain their fair share of crumbling, poorly-aged retro-rhythms, these weak spots are obscured by the lush vibrancy of the rest of the albums.

Sasha and Digweed may have come a long way since 1994, but that doesn't mean their starting point was necessarily a bad place. It had its flaws, its cracks and gaudy mouldings, but -- as this set proves -- their point of origin wasn't something embarrasing which they have since left behind. It was a solid bedrock, a great wide launching pad, that they continue to reinvent in newer and better ways. Fans of the genre and of the artists should buy this album to rediscover the classics that goaded the music into loftier realms; newcomers should buy this album to learn just how timeless even this most modern of musics can still be.

5 out of 5 stars Essential..........2006-10-21

Techno and the whole electronica scene has certainly splintered from its early days with genre after genre and label after label being attached to its many forms and sounds. But it all starts here, really. It was this mix, this year, this scene that blazed the trail for the rise of techno as, dare I say it, popular. Oh, sure, there was techno prior to this but not in a format for mass consumption. It was mostly an "insider" thing with a few hints in the marketplace that it was coming as all scenes do when they hit critical mass.

I was a latecomer to the whole thing having dabbled in some Eon in the early 90s and beginning listening to Moby sometime circa 1994, about the same time as this was released. I first heard John Digweed when I stumbled across his Global Underground Los Angeles mix in 1999. Consuming everything GU I would eventually stumble across this, purchasing a copy from the UK for a pretty penny.

This mix captures a snapshot in time. The opening three tracks with the various remixes of Leftfield instantly set the tone that something special is happening. With singing divas, remixes of artists who are now fairly well known, Moby being one of them, these mixes capture a moment in time, an era, the re-emergence of dance music.

From time to time I will pull this out to listen to it, hoping it doesn't sound cheesy, dated and ridiculous. It never really does. At worst it is sentimental. Though it does show its age (especially some of the diva tunes, an obligatory insert in all mixes of this period, overplayed to the point of parody), this is not in the negative. It still sounds sweet and is a gentle reminder that for as much as techno has "sold out" today (television theme songs, movie soundtracks and commercials) that it still sounds remarkably fresh.

As every classic rocker needs some of the essentials of Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd with newer staples such as Metallica, Nirvana and Guns 'n' Roses, anyone who likes techno or DJ mixes needs to get a copy and develop deep roots.

1 out of 5 stars Practically the worst Sasha & Digweed mix ever.......2006-03-07

I've been listening to Sasha and Digweed for a very very long time, and I wanted this Renaissance mix collection after going to the nightclub in the U.K. because of the amazing experiences there. However, I was disturbed when I listened to this 3cd set. Infact it doesn't reflect on anything Sasha has done even before these mixes. I would never have bought this item had I known how horrible it is. While the mixing is good, the track selection is not what I expected, I learned my lesson...

5 out of 5 stars Essential CD for sasha fans.......2006-01-07

If you don't like Sasha and are just getting into him I suggest you try something a bit more current. This CD has been recently remastered and the mixing, production level, and track selection is truly historical but this CD is for people that like Sasha and want to own his classic sets hence the term collectros edition used on the casing. If you are new to Sasha or the genre get involver and then Ibiza and then Paul Oakenfold's tranceport for his take on the Gus Gus track purple which is considered by most people to be one of the most awe-inspiring remixes of all time.

Bottom line: U want it? go for it its pretty impressive from start to finish, featuring the likes of Leftfield, Sasha himself, moby and a tremendous host of others.

      5 out of 5 stars Solid Mix.......2005-02-24

      This is definetely one of my favorite Dieselboy mixes, when i wanna kick back and enjoy some good Drum and Bass i throw this in. The first half of the mix is not quite as heavy and dark as a lot of dieselboy records, making it a nice reprieve from the later half of this CD, which has some heavier, more intense beats. If you ask me you really need to own all of the Dieselboy CD's, but this or 97 octane is the place to start.

      2 out of 5 stars All these songs seem to sound alike..........2003-08-23

      Why couldn't they have found different grooves and/or rythyms for some of the drum & bass compositions on this album, for DJ Dieselboy's "Six Eleven DJ Mix Series-Vol. 1"? It's the same ol' ti-ti-ti-tik-tika-ti-ti-ti, do-ti-do-ti-do-ti-do kind of bassline being mixed over and over. All these songs seem to sound alike, kinda like AK1200, Tricky, Freaky Flow & MC Flipside's previous albums. I think this underground electronic-music genre needs a major overhaul. I think it's so boring to listen to the same rythyms, with the redundant beats and lack of creativity. We need to experiment a little more with this kind of stuff, by exploring things outside of the usual boundries in the realm of drum & bass - by drawing outside the lines - every once in a while. I'm no expert when it comes to the underground scene, by any means, it's just the way I feel about it. I'm more into the progressive-house and nu-school break-beats, there's so much more variety and creativity to the music. That being said, I would instead give some DJ Icey, DJ Micro or DJ Baby Anne a try, with their awesome break's compilations to escape the doldrums of this dissapointing album.

      5 out of 5 stars Classic DnB mix.......2001-11-30

      Easily this is one of dieselboy's best mixed albums. Before his explosion into futuristic sci-step/tech-step sounds, Dieselboy dropped this album filled with deliciously mixed beats which are jazzy, dark, deep, and thoughtful. The pacing is mixed giving the listener room to breathe; the tempo is varied to remind you that you are the listener to music and NOT just background to the dj's canvas of snare drums and hi-hats. Be at peace when purchasing this cd because you'll be in store for some pure listening enjoyment.

      4 out of 5 stars Classic.......2000-05-21

      This is the album that turned me on to Drum&Base. Much of the jungle I had heard just seemed chaotic high-hats and base drones, then Deiselboy came along. DjmixSeries has all the energy of good tech-step D&B but with flutes, well used samples, ect. that add a melodic effect as well. The mix of music this driving and dark with soft melodies is just perfect. You can sit and chill to this or dance. Also sick stuff like bringing back tiny parts of old samples later in the disc. My only complaint is that it looses a bit of momentum towards the end. Ill stop the CD early often because the last few songs are a bit boring. I have become a D&B fanatic since I first heard DjmixSeries, but I still dont have anything else quite like it.

      5 out of 5 stars Hot.......1999-06-15

      This is by far the best album in the drum and bass genre. Dieselboy has created a masterpiece better than his close first album, 97 Octane. If your looking for the hottest jungle CD right now its Dieselboy 611 Philly.

      5 out of 5 stars Unbelievable.......2004-10-10

      I was a raver back in the day and had the honor of seeing Scott Henry every Friday night at Capitol Ballroom in D.C. I bought this cd in '96 when it was first released and was absolutely thrilled with it. I loved and knew every song on it. Listening to the cd now, takes me back to those great times of dancing the night away. I was heartbroken when my cd became too scratched to play, but thank god, I have found it again. For thoses of you who were around in the mid-90's, I also recommend Tetsuo's cd Music From the Techno Club (box set). You should know most of the songs because Scott Henry and others used to spin many of them. Amazon.com also has that cd.
      Smile was the first true techno cd I ever owned and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great mix and outstanding song selection.

      5 out of 5 stars One of the best -ALL TIME!!!.......2004-01-13

      This CD seriously ROCKS!!! It's by far one of the best examples of early techno. Scott Henry rips the tables up on this CD.

      5 out of 5 stars Truly amazing!!!!.......2003-07-28

      This is one of the greatest commercially produced techno mixes of all time. I've owned this CD three separate occassions as it has been taken or given (and never returned)... DJ Scott Henry has had other mixes out, but they pale in comparison. This is good old school rave music... The kind of stuff that makes you wanna strap on your backpack, put on your most comfy kicks, and dance your tail off in a sweaty warehouse until the morning comes... If you partied back when these tracks were produced, you will be reminiscent... If not, take notes, this is a history lesson worth listening to.

      5 out of 5 stars beautiful trancey goodness.......2003-01-31

      i love this cd. my friend has bought this cd three times. once because she lost it, another time because she broke up with a boyfriend and he took it with him, and the third time because she was at a party and ended up giving it to someone in an e'd out stupor of love. "you are so nice, you neeeeed this. this is for you. you will appreciate it." she did the same thing with a few cheap novelty watches and a poetry book, but the point is, everyone who has heard it has loved it. its not monotonous. it moves you. its good. get it.

      5 out of 5 stars Awesome Buy!.......2000-10-20

      You must get this cd!! This is one of my favorite cd's of all time. This is a must have. This cd is up lifting and makes me long for a rave.

      The best and most rare of the mix master series. Anyone who loves house music this is one CD to have above all in your collection.

      4 out of 5 stars Portable Chicago.......2000-07-03

      This is the compilation that gave birth to the series (up to volume 4 as of this writing). This album (and this series) is the best way I know to bring the sound of Chicago style dance music to you wherever you are.

      I know it is hard to make a dance-album review useful, but we can at least say yeah. You get a great sample from some of the best dance mixers out there.

      To the person from Milwaukee, WI, speaking of Tim's "Heartbeat Collection", been desperately looking for it, anyway I can buy a copy from you?
      If so, please contact me at kerwincortez@hotmail.com

      Thanks

      5 out of 5 stars BOOM!!.......2003-06-10

      This CD is awesome! I bought it when it came out and still listen to it to this day. It's one of the best mixes I ever heard. I love how he uses the accapellas over the beats. It a great mega-mix of NEW an OLD Freestyle Favorites.

      5 out of 5 stars Frankie D. from Fajardo P.R........2002-03-21

      I have this cd in my collection and it's one of my favorites.Please help me to find anothers like this because it's hard to find this kind of music{specially mixed}here in P.R.

      4 out of 5 stars Boom! is good, but not as good as his old mixes.......2000-06-04

      Tim has always been my favorite Freestyle mixer. I used to have all the "Heartbeat" mixes (if you guys thought FSB was good than you MUST find his old "for promo use only" mixes! ). I bought this cd back when it first came out and listened to it for awhile, put it on the shelf for a year then broke it out again last night. It really does have some good songs and is worth the money. THIS IS NOT SOME LAME COMPILATION, THIS IS A GOOD MIX. I guess living in Milwaukee I was spoiled with all his old mixes (Tim is from WI) thats why I was just a little disapointed with FSB. Can't wait for Vol.2.

      5 out of 5 stars Dope!.......2000-05-22

      All the best freestyle. Smoothest mixes. Tim chose artists with better-than average voices. Cons: too much looping, too many acapellas. Hope there will be a Vol 2! Check out To Kool Chris' mix CD too if you can find it.
