Quality Vs. Obscurity?

"For me, this CD was a little dissapointing. I'm sure that Kon and Amir are very accomplished beat diggers and DJs, but for me this felt kind of like some of those rare funky 45 CDs you pick up: 2 or 3 great tracks, the rest included because of their rarity. It's all well and good to value the rareness of a record, but a mix that uses that as a guiding principle for track selection doesn't necessarily make for an aural experience that's going to touch hearts, stimulate minds, and move booties. Although it's different, I would recommend the awesome Beni B "Live from SF-Dance Classics Vol. 1 and 2" CD...plenty of rare records (including the mind melting Hudson People-Trip to Your Mind, also included on the Kon and Amir), but for me a much more satisfying journey into the world of soulful underground disco."

Old House come's back to life!

"This CD is tight. Granted it may be old Disco but this is the stuff you don't hear. Being from Chicago and growing up on house music, this takes me back to some famous Chicago DJ's including Frankie Knuckles. If you're into old Disco and enjoy mixes this is the CD to have. I can't stress it anymore that this is the CD to have."
