Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Pumpin' compilation Comment: I have this compilation on my music player and use it to boost my spirits at the gym, and it always works. I agree that the first cd takes a bit to warm up especially since the already-mentioned back-to-the-80s song after Ultra Nate (a song I don't really like). A really great circuit music compilation that stands on its own. Customer Rating: Summary: Awesome Set! Comment: I thought the first CD was better than the second, although there were cuts on the second CD I liked very much. Having been in my prime in the 80s, I was familiar with most of the music, and took me back to Brussels, Belgium and the club scene there. Dare I say I use these CDs for work outs now LOL. From an old school clubber, I give it 4 thumbs up. Only because there were some dragging tracks on the 2nd CD, and not enough mix in my opinion. That Spin Spin Sugar is awesome! Customer Rating: Summary: First disk much better than second Comment: The mixing was really great on these CDs, but the first disk was definitely much better than the second. Customer Rating: Summary: Club Babylon Comment: Slightly dissappointed with this soundtrack. There are some good songs on this 2 disc collection, however, it wasn't as good as the season 1-5 soundtracks were. Customer Rating: Summary: Behind Club Babylon Comment: For those who haven't purchased this anthology it's a must have!!! The 2cd set captures the spirit of Babylon. A night at the club is like this and here is your own personal ticket to Babylon.. For me, it fit right in with my Ministry of Sound and Gatecrasher cd's .. As a fan I loved it... As a House Music and Club junkie it was a wish come true!!!! I highly recommend to everyone... The Babylon theme is very present througout the first cd and more distinct in the second... Krintine W. who is synonomous with QAF / Babylon featured almost every season (except 4) is featured twice beutifully ... Her unique talent and sheer vitue make this trip to Babylon worthwhile !!!! CD one has a widely accessible range using new wave and hard house beats we commonly associate with the "Babylon" genre. The second CD expands on the "Babylon" theme further stepping "out" by using darker beats that are more "circuit" or "NYC" beats I am used to.. "Babylon" never compromises. Both CD are really solid and both are unique enough to stand alone or playing in sequence... "Lio", "Delerium", "Mandalay" "Kosheen", "Roc Project", "The Chemical Brothers" and "Gioia" are strangely absent from this compilation which were featured throughout seasons 2 and 3 provided the "queer" sound that became associated with QAF. This by no means takes anything at all from this truly awesome CD . Chris Cox and Abel Aguilera do an excellent job in stepping away from that and featuring artists that are truly unique add showcasing new ones to QAF i laughed... I cried... I celebrated... I had a melacholy experience with Season 5 closing what is essentially a groundbreaking television this CD lets you take some of that "Babylon" home!!!! I had a night out with Brian, Mikey, and boys of Babylon The only thing I want more of is "Babylon Series" CDs!!!!!

Editorial Reviews: Released just in time to usher in the final season of Showtime's gritty, gay-themed series, this accompanying fifth soundtrack anthology expands upon a smart pop music sensibility whose popularity parallels the show itself. The 20 beat-savvy tracks here were inspired by the nightspot that's an integral part of the series' drama, a vibrant double-disc collection that interweaves such 80's-vintage club staples as Bronski Beat's "Smalltown Boy," and The Pet Shop Boys' (with an assist from Peter Rauhofer) "Break 4 Love" with more contemporary grooves like Ultra Nate's "Free" and "Safe From Harm" by Narcotic Thrust. Fans will note that a number of the versions here differ from those actually aired on the show. But as mixed by Chris Cox (disc one) and Abel Aguilera (the edgier, more expansive disc two) and seamlessly sequenced sans track gaps, the intent is not to offer up a slavish show song-score, but rather to synthesize a fictional night at Club Babylon that stretches from the first disc's upbeat pop to the sensual, hypnotic rhythms of Suzanne Palmer and Rachel Panay that highlight the closer. --Jerry McCulley
