This is the work of renowned dance producer and envelope-pusher Darren Tait. Electro, tribal house, chilled out ambient grooves and several other genres all fight for your attention. Tate's strong rhythmic backbone makes you sit up and listen closely. Bush's Gavin Rossdale fronts the spaced-out tribal house groove Falling and veteran dance diva Shena McSween's gorgeous voice makes The Power Of One a standout track. Other highlights include Winter, with Andrea Britten's little-girl-lost vocals pulling you through the speakers, and the spiky Hold Me Till The End. The bonus disc (the 'Club Mixed' selection) provides the listener with alternate viewpoints on each of the album's tracks, drawing them closer to the dancefloor. The songs feed off each other, one track never being allowed to dominate over its disc mates and all coming together to create a rounded and satisfying listen. [Jonathan Robert Muirhead]
