Summary: the defining moment of atmospheric / intelligent dnb
Comment: Two discs, one mixed and one unmixed. If you are a dnb / jungle fan, you probably already own this. If you've never heard dnb before, but are a fan of well-mixed music, ltj bukem works the decks like a zen master. If you are an aspiring dance dj, in any genre, listening to disc A will improve your craft.
In some ways, this album is showing its age. Jungle, even atmospheric jungle, has gotten significantly faster and harder in the 12-14 years since most of these tracks were produced. Hovering around 158 bpm throughout, showcasing plenty of classic oldschool samples, jungle's roots in hardcore are more audible than in today's dnb. And yet, they are each undeniably jungle, and many of them can still go toe to toe with the best productions available when listening bliss is the goal (rather than visceral concussive blasts of monster bass).
The drum programming, I will say, lacks a lot of the spasmodic originality that modern electronica holds dear. There's no ragga break, or tech step break, and the sublimity of the mixing can have the effect of bleeding the tracks together almost too perfectly...so not to play the elitism card, but other facets of the music have more than enough originality to quench a discerning listener.
Not every historic moment is a historic moment for everyone, but there are good reasons why this album represents a historic moment for many. This has been a public service announcement.

Summary: Neither good dnb nor ambient
Comment: This compilation is likable after listenieng to it a few times but it lacks both originality and excitement in my opinion. Almost all tracks follow the same pattern, the drums are rather uniform making it sound like d'n'b had nothing more to offer. If you like smooth repetitive grooves than it may be your thing but if you want to listen to some good d'n'b check the likes of Roni Size or Talving Singh instead. There are a few pieces that have some interesting loops and rhythms and a good ambiental feeling to it (note though "So Long" on disc b seems to be influenced by #5, disc 1 on Selected Ambient Works vol.II by Aphex Twin) but these are few and far between to make up for the overall dull feeling of the compilation.

Summary: Good, but gets old fast
Comment: This is a fun album, but drum and bass gets old- and fast. If you're like me you'll find that after a few weeks of fairly regular listening it will mysteriously slip to the back of your CD collection, where it will probably collect dust for some time to come. It's more a novelty than anything else. Less music and more technical wizardry, Bukem is no doubt a talented man when he's on his machines, but his musical vision is so narrow that the album quickly bores the listener. Drum and bass isn't a very diverse genre anyway, and after you hear variations on the same drum sequences, you'll see what I mean. The reason this and other mediocre albums get such rave reviews is because of the unusual cult following that drum and bass music seems to have. Like much "underground" music, those who follow it do so with a near religious fervor. Look around, you'll see that most drum and bass albums either get five stars or one star. A narrow genre usually acquires fanatical followers with narrow musical appreciation so this is no surprise. Just be warned. It's a fun album, but it will wear you down quick.

Summary: Great CD
Comment: This has one of the best intelligent drum&bass beats I have heard so far. Good to dance to as well as kickin back too also, so buy this cd!
Customer Rating:
Summary: LTJ Bukem is a musical genius.
Comment: Whether you're a ragga soldier, dark tech stepper, or a jump up junkie....BUY THIS CD ! It doesn't matter what your current preference in drum'n'bass is because once you hear the smooth and enlightening chords along with the snappy breakbeats that only LTJ Bukem can fuse together in a most refreshing way, you will be hooked! The media has labeled LTJ BUKEM'S style as "ambient" or "intelligent" but regardless of what label or genre you catergorize his music as, one thing is for sure....LOGICAL PROGRESSION will go down in the drum'n'bass hall of fame as a masterpiece! So what are you waiting for? Go out to your nearest record store and scoop this one up immediately!

Editorial Reviews:

A virtual pioneer in the realm of breakbeat, Danny "LTJ" Bukem first came into prominence as a DJ at Speed, a London nightclub that catered to the celebrated drum & bass cognoscenti. With his influential Good Looking and Looking Good music labels now quite popular in the U.K., Bukem also has a solid reputation as a producer and record executive. This double disc is a compilation of several outstanding Bukem performances, along with a number of remixed tracks by his favorite drum & bass compatriots. Including classic cuts by progressive electronic artists like Photek, DJ Crystl, and Peshay, LTJ Bukem has compiled a cutting-edge collection of studio/hardware-based dance music which proudly display mid-nineties breakbeat innovations straight out of the United Kingdom. This one's highly recommended. --Mitch Myers
