Kris Menace is set to release a three-disc set of his work in April.

Entitled Idiosyncrasies, the collection will feature 37 Menace productions, including his 2005 hit "Discopolis," the track that propelled him to fame after it got picked up by UK label Defected.

Menace's previous collaborations with Alan Braxe, Lifelike and Fred Falke are all included on the first CD, in addition to new material from his sessions with Felix Da Housecat, and UK breakbeat acts Spooky and Hexstatic, while disc two is generally more relaxed in tone, with Menace experimenting with atmospheric electronica and warm, blissful ambience.

As if that wasn't enough, you get an extra CD which compiles eleven of Menace's major label remixes, including re-rubs of The Presets, Metronomy, LCD Soundsystem and Underworld.

Thu, 06 Aug 2009It is a good review, but I think he is underrating CD3. This remix collection is pure gold, and if you're into vocals, you can usually get the vocals versions of his mixes separately.

Overall, this 3 CD Collection is INCREDIBLE value and a must-buy.
