Paul Van Dyk/Politics of Dancing -Vol. II (2005)

[DudeAsInCool]

I have been listening to this quite a bit on the radio - finally got to hear the whole thing. The review below is pretty apt. This recording is high energy - Van Dyk has brought a number of DJs in to complete this two volume set and it's definitely HOT!

Considering his uber-DJ status, it comes as something of a surprise to learn that The Politics Of Dancing (and, presumably, feeling good) is the first-ever mixed outing from one of dance music's most reluctant figureheads. Having said in the past that he didn't think he could bring the atmosphere of a club to a compilation, it has taken the full weight of the ubiquitous Ministry to persuade the legendary Berliners to their turntables for a steroid-pumped two hours of music. Despite his aversion to the term, rippling Eurotrance is the order of the day here, with Van Dyk stamping his authority by way of no less than 11 of his own tracks or remixes scattered across two seamlessly mixed compact discs, the tracklisting for which has also been dissected and rebuilt in the studio into what amounts to a series of exclusive versions.

That's a pretty cool take on it.
