This may be the best CD that the Ministry corperation has ever put out, and as it is from the Australian branch and it cost about half the price of its UK based sister releases. The tradition is to present a grab bag of anthems, boringly mixed on a PC and add a star DJ name to give it credibility. Here listeners will find some really long mixes that sound absolutely amazing, vocal accapella that tend to lift a track, and spot on programming to create a bit of a musical journey. The best example is Nubreed’s Welcome playing over Aria's One, it is a simply sublime moment and what this sort of music is all about. Declan’s disc starts out with some great house music steered well away from the disco and French sounds that flood the mainstream. By the end of the disc he has built the tempo up to some light progressive house action that is the perfect teaser for the second CD. Mark's however pumps the blood harder delving in and out of dark tek house, harder progressive house, breaks and tribal sounds.
