  • In the D&B genre Valve Recordings have become favorites on the dance floor for many of the industries leading performers and crowds alike. The newest release Spectrum is no exception to Valve’s successful catalog. Unlike many of the previous compilations released by Valve this album includes the talents of many different artists including the impressive talents of Dillinja and Lemon D. Also included are Friction & Nu Balance, A-Sides, Dan Miracle, Craggz & Parallel Forces, and TC. This 2 disc set includes a mix CD and a tracked CD. Both sides are amazing in composition and style as we’ve come to love the rude harshness encapsulated by the “Valve Sound”. For months the industries leaders have rinsed Songs like DJ Friction & Nu Balance’s “Again & Again” and Dillinja’s “Feel My Pain” as crowds crave the sound and roughness. Now these tunes are at your disposal for our listening and performing pleasure. On the production tip it is noteworthy indicate that the CD will somewhat take you back a few years as many of the artists re-discover their roots with old-school drum programming and composition. This is something we’ve been seeing throughout 2004 that provides a refreshing escape from the technical styles pushed by many of the newer D&B producers. Overall this CD is an excellent piece of work that is both inspiring and entertaining on many different levels. I would highly recommend picking this one up for both you and your mates, as this is one of the best albums of the season.
