Product Description

Continuingito combine visuals from imaginative digital animators with a soundtrack by electronic dance music's leading artists and DJs, the X-Mix series had by the mid-90s become continental clubland's visual materials of choice. As the series matured, the animations began moving from abstraction into stand-alone virtual landscapes. Beyond the Heavens, to a mix of classic groovy techno sculpted by theiUK's Dave Angel, had a futuristic, almost sinister atmosphere. It includes crucial tunes by Kenny Larkin, Sun Electric, Josh Wink, Ian Pooley andiDave Angel himself. Digital deserts and industries of the imagination were explored on Wildstyle, where the sounds were provided by Munich's DJ Hell - a decade of underground techno and house, fashioned into one long mix and including crucial tracks such as Bernard Badie's Can You Feel It, Bobby Konders' Let There be House and Phortune's Can You Feel The Bass.

The Electronic Storm supplied further flights of computer-animated fancy - digital worlds orchestrated to a long, morphing mix from The Shamen's Mr C. both a voyage into virtuality and a journey into the spirit of the beat. 'It's about human evolution,' said Mr C.

5 out of 5 stars Xcellent DVD, not for CGA-heads though.......2005-04-25

This is a DVD you should buy essentially for music, and especially if you love techno. I mean, you get Kevin Saunderson, Hardfloor and Dave Clarke mixes all on one DVD!! Theses were defining mixes when they first came out, especially the Saunderson and Clarke ones. On top of that, you get the animation which was utterly amazing in 1999, but may be a bit dated to some. It is much much better than what you can get at your local rave by any means. Animations are short clips that fit a single song, and they are not the repetitive and abstract type you found in the early 90s. They are more thematic and tend to tell a mini-story.

All in all a must have for ravers and people looking for the best techno and electro the 90s had to produce. Obviously, people looking for cutting edge 2005 computer graphic animation should look elsewhere.

1 out of 5 stars The most dissapointing CG DVD i've seen.......2005-04-17

I have the original mix with out the video and all though its not the best mix I thought (impulsive buying) it may have some cool video effects mixed with it on the DVD. I liked the cover's I gave it a shot. I have never been this disappointed with a computer animation DVD or VHS.

The animation on here is absolutely pathetic and its obvious they threw any 3/D novices very basic animations together on this DVD. The quality is very very compressed looking in many places. I had to write this review because I saw that it had gotten good reviews by others which, I'm not supposed to comment on. I felt so strongly that that I needed to give you my review (my very first). But I just took out this DVD and reviewed it again, and I'm telling you it stinks, its so obvious there was no quality in the production. Its looks like they didn't spend a dime on making this and neither should you!
Again the animations are just so very lame and pointless and rarely go with the mix, and the quality sux.

4 out of 5 stars Extra long.......2002-09-27

This DVD was basicly 3 video's in one. The're 3 diff CGI and music mixes on the disc. The music is down tempo house and trance. Not bad at all. better then I've heard on simalr DVD's. I like using this DVD for parties and when I'm DJing at clubs. If you like to trip out this is a good one to get.
