Advantages: Every tune

Disadvantages: None

Voted fourth best dance album of all time in Muzik magazine, is certainly earned through Richard D. James' magnificent debut album. Combining a collection that started when he was fourteen (after building the majority of his own equipment) up until he was twenty-one this album shows maturity far beyond his years.

The albums feel is one of post-club/late night listening. Only then can it be appreciated in its full entirity. Vinyl is the obvious choice however if CD is your only option best played on a decent stereo, or it becomes wasted.

Each song has a different feel to it revealing practically teenage moods in their vast differences. Production is superb for a teenager and each true will have you turning your head and asking whats this if heard at a party on random.

Classical sub-pop culture dance music.
