Steve Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 Anyone heard this? Whoever mixed it needs shooting. It's weak! All the old Electro albums from the 80s piss on this from a great height.The track listing too....."Light Years Away" by Warp 21....WTF? Also, on one CD is the track "I'm The Packman" by The Packman. On the other disc is "Pack Jam" by Jonzun Crew which is actually "I'm The Packman" again. There's a couple of other mistakes too. Do not buy it! It would have been loads better if it was unmixed.

Steve Posted August 1, 2005 Author Share Posted August 1, 2005 To me it's not as good as the others. They try and fit too many tracks in. Even though it was mixed by Mastermind, it isn't as well put together as 1&2 IMO. Jamie - You need Electro 22 as well. The R.P. Cola track on that one is actually by the Kool Rock Brothers.

Steve Posted August 1, 2005 Author Share Posted August 1, 2005 You're talking about the Jonzun Crew tracks though right? One is Pak Man (Look Out For the OVC) and the other is Pack Jam (Look Out For The OVC). Both are the same track, but neither are on this compilation. lol.
