Album: The Best of Strange Cargos
Artist: William Orbit
Release Date: 2/20/1996
Genre: Electronic-Dance

Compiling tracks from his three Strange Cargo albums (with recordings dating from 1984 to 1994), William Orbit displays a range of recording styles, drifting from the ambient-pop of "Water from a Vine Leaf" with Beth Orton to recordings more obsessed with trance and world rhythms. ~ John Bush,...

The mixing is excellent throughout. ~... Read More

Artist: Moby
Smoker's Delight Smoker's Delight
Artist: Nightmares on Wax

George Evelyn's solo step as Nightmares on Wax, Smoker's Delight, is a whole delightfully irreducible to its parts, which, as with earlier releases, is largely electro, hip-hop, and soul, with bits of Latin percussion and down-tempo funk thrown in. The album spawned a pair of somewhat forgettable remix EPs and was reissued by TVT immediately... Read More
