offer nissim Remixed
The wait is over, Offer's got something new to offer. Offer
has become one of the most highly regarded names in club
music in the last few years, and the fact that the majority of
his stuff gets released as bootlegs and never makes it across
the Atlantic from his native Israel only adds to his mystique
and allure. So when it was announced that a domestically
available follow-up artist album to his 2006 First Time would
be coming, I—along with anyone else who loves this man's
style—made a little puddle on the floor. In essence, this is
all a long time coming, since most of the artist tracks contained
have been trickling out as singles since early 2007.
Finally, though, they're all collected on one disc, along with
a handful of new ones, a second disc of remixes of past
and present material. This is also the only place a hardcopy
exists of the one of four trance mixes of "For Your Love"
from the 2008 round of remixes.
You'll Love: Out of My Skin, Remember My Name, For Your
Love (Sied Van Riel Mix)
chicane The Best of Chicane 1996-2006
Don't sit on trying to find this. It was originally released on
iTunes two weeks before physical release, then removed
from iTunes just in time for the physical to be delayed to
retailers. What you have before you (when you finally get
it) is a select collection from one of the most creative and
expressive minds in electronic music. After releasing only
three full-length artist albums, Chicane has crafted well over
a dozen classic tracks that have been played and revived
continually over the years, and made a name for himself
amongst the genre's royalty. Additionally, this album is the
only place to find several of the previously unreleased tracks
from Chicane's stillborn 2003 Easy To Assemble album (cancelled
before release), and the edit version of his bootleg
collaboration with Natasha Bedingfield, "Bruised Water."
