Glowstick Heaven

(4 out of 5 stars)
"This is one of the heavier Ministry of Sound (MOS) compilations I've heard, and that's good news for this serious clubber/raver/glowsticker. Many of the remixes on the first CD are geared towards heavy house and techno; there's almost no straight trance, dub, or chill. Sunlight and Voyager are particularly good for practicing your stick skills. The second CD tones down the mood a little bit, especially as it nears the end, but it's mostly solid house with a heavy dose of West Coast flavor. The flow from beginning to end is smooth, but I would have liked to hear some new mixes--a few singles are straight up. Overall, though, this is an excellent delivery from the MOS folks, and all avenues of clubfolk should enjoy."
