(5 out of 5 stars)

"Although it doesn't out-do Volume 1 how can you beat 7 great CDs for 24 dollars? I'm kidding of course. The idea behind this set is really unique in that it features mixes of music produced by various record labels in the trance/house genre of music, such that each CD represents the best of a label mixed by some pretty damn good DJs. Among the labels featured you have Eve, BPM, Choochoo, Whoop, Limbo (2 discs), and the well-known and respected album Platipus. Scott Stubbs, a Topaz favorite, has the honor of mixing two of the 7 CDs in the set. Stubbs is a solid experienced DJ out of Vegas and with due respect probably has the best two mixes from the box set which surprised me because I ranked his mix 4 out of the 6 from Volume 1, not because it wasn't good but because Moda, Hamel, and Oleysyck blew me away. I have newfound respect for him with his Platipus rerelease and his Limbo mix. Nuff said.The other mix that grabbed me right after the first beat: BPM Jinx the System mixed by Chris Fisher. I don't know Chris Fisher from before this CD but his mix of BPM's hits is driven and seamless like one of those ICE trains the people in Germany engineered: fast, encapsulating and comfortable. This one will stay in the changer for awhile.Not to lump the rest together but for the most part the other CDs are mellower and represent classic trance: more to listen to than to dance to and so far they haven't captured me quite yet but I'm only on the 3rd run through and it usually takes me a little while to warm up to a mix.The buy was worth it to me because Platipus sells ...in the stores and they throw it into the set as somewhat of a hooking headliner. It's been recommended to me before so I was all for it. Lot's of non-stop trance/house spanning 7-8 hours for 24 blingblings even if some of the tunes are classic oldies in the genre. Good for the new and the vets.Enjoy"
