| | House Sessions CD
Aussie compilation featuring 33 tracks from the likes of Groove Armada, Mambana, Soulsearcher, Etherfox, Master & Hess, Crazy Penis, Bocagrande, Silver City, Murk, Eric Prydz, & many more. Mixed by Grant Smillie and Tim McGee. Slipcase. Ministry Of Sound. 2003.
Among the myriad double-disc themed mixes that Ministry of Sound released annually over the years, Ministry of Sound: House Sessions is standard fare. It's a well-packaged collection of popular house music circa 2003, with an emphasis on tracks that were popular in the United Kingdom, in particular the Ministry of Sound club in England. There aren't any surprises, and the mixing of each disc -- by Grant Smillie and Tim McGee, respectively -- is fairly seamless if unremarkable in itself. There's a wealth of popular tracks here (big names including Groove Armada, Sandy Rivera, Crazy Penis, Junior Jack, and Derrick Carter), though many are very anchored to their era, making this somewhat of a flash in the pan collection. But that's the case with any of these Ministry of Sound collections -- they're intended to capture a snapshot of a brief moment in dance music history, and nothing more than that. If indeed you were out getting your groove on somewhere late at night in the U.K. during 2003, you might take special interest in this collection, especially if house is your dance music of choice. This might be a perfect aural souvenir for you of that time and place. Or if you happened to miss out on the moment and wish you could have been there, here's your memento. It's not as enthralling as a long, sweaty summer night at Ministry of Sound in 2003, but it's about as close as you're going to get. ~ Jason Birchmeier

House Sessions CD music
$15.65  
On THE BLUEPRINT 3, still unretired Jay-Z announces "the only rapper to rewrite history without a pen." It's a standard Jigga boast, but the Brooklyn icon has earned the bragging by backing it up, particularly on his gold-label, top-shelf BLUEPRINT series. Ever-ready for battle, Jay-Z takes on autotune, crossover radio, and many other hip-hop concerns with the gloriously jagged rap elan for which he's become known.
When Jay-Z first made a series out of his best album, 2001's The Blueprint, it became a game of high expectations. The first volume saw Jay-Z as vital as he'd ever been, storming back to the hardcore after a few years of commercial success. THE BLUEPRINT 2 took a different tack, with guest shots to compliment his sinuous flows. BLUEPRINT 3 is somewhere between the two, closer to the vitality and energy of the original but not without the crossover bids and guest features of the latter. Kanye West is in the producer's chair for seven tracks, and it's clear he was reaching for the same energy level as the original. "What We Talkin' About" begins the album with a wave of surging, oppressive synth, while Jay-Z enumerates (with ...

| | Annie Don't Stop CD (2009)
House Sessions CD music
$12.79
Annie ran into some obstructions on the way to the release of her second album. Don't Stop was supposed to come out on Island well over a year before it was finally issued on Norway's Smalltown Supersound; Island had gone as far as releasing "I Know UR Girlfriend Hates Me" as a single and video, as well as a cover of Stacey Q's "Two of Hearts" as a promotional single, but Annie and Island split, and Don't Stop finally surfaced with a different track list that included neither "Girlfriend" nor "Hearts." As on Anniemal, Don't Stop contains some of the catchiest, most clever dance-pop in circulation, highlighted by the fizzy "I Don't Like Your Band," one of three songs produced by Paul Epworth (Bloc Party, Florence and the Machine). Nearly as ensnaring as "Chewing Gum," Annie's taunting, attitudinal wordplay is in top form, with "It's not you, it's your tunes" closely followed by a pointedly insincere-sounding "I feel bad." The collaborations with Xenomania (five songs), Timo Kaukolampi (three), and Richard X (one) aren't as powerful, however, with a good handful of their songs no match for Anniemal's weaker moments. The worst of all, "The Breakfast Song," has a chorus and call-and-response ...
