CD ReviewsWell Worth the Wait trainwrecka | FLower Mound, TX USA | 07/29/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "Been a fan of Bad Boy Bill's for years. It's great seeing how his mixes have evolved over the years. I personally like the faster mixing, and turntable tricks that made him famous. With his last entry, Behind the Decks: Live, he was mixing tracks at about the same speed as everyone else. Some of the tracks went as long as 5 minutes, while most sat around 3. The 20 tracks left fans of his 35+ mixes wanting that old Bill-style. So here we are 3 years later, waiting for a new signature Bill mix (or third House Connection effort), and Bill does the unexpected - he releases a full-length artist album. With songs like Happy, Just Like I Want, and Someday all being favorites of those who purchased his last two mixes, this makes perfect sense. After giving the album a fairly good listen, it really is a great album. It is everything an electronic artist album should be. Short edits of all songs (not the 6-8 minute DJ mix version), other artist providing vocal work for the tracks, and a more mainstream sound. By mainstream I mean something that can be put in an iTunes playlist at a party, and not have everyone "notice some techno" just came on when the track goes from Coldplay to it. Falling Anthem is already a proven success, Rockit has Bill at his best, Fast Life will be his new hit with Alex Peace, and the other songs are all equally worthy to be in your iTunes collection. 3 things I hope for Bill in the future: when he releases singles from the album, he releases "radio edits" of the remixes as well, and with b-sides like Someday that fans still have trouble getting; he goes back to mixing fast, and he achieves crossover success with this album. It's been a long time coming, and it was well worth the wait." Nothing Unique Here Soul Sauce | 11/15/2009 (2 out of 5 stars) "This album sounds like 90% of every other house album coming out these days. All the soul has been drained from this once-great genre, exchanged for robotic replacements. Looking back at the House Connection and early Bangin The Box series, its hard to believe where Bad Boy Bill has found himself. Instead of the innovator and stand-out DJ he once was, he has become merely a regurgitator of current trends." Big let down!! Honest Fellow | Virginia, USA | 07/28/2009 (2 out of 5 stars) "First let me say I am a Bad Boy Bill fan. He is the reason I started to DJ. I have every published CD from House Connection and all the underground stuff out there. Since Bangin The Box Vol 5, Bill has been on a decline and moving away from his hard pumping house music that used to drive people nuts in the club. I don't know if he is trying to move to the trance and deep house scene, or getting out of the club DJ lifestyle and moving to the producer life. This record is slow, weak, and lacking anything you want to dance to. This sounds like stuff he just REMIXED to see if he could and its not that good in my opinion. Sadly this is one Bad Boy Bill record I will not be adding to my already 11+ albums."
