Music Reviews Artist: Godskitchen Electric HouseTitle: VA - Godskitchen
  Godskitchen is a name revered in world of dance music, so their hotly anticipated Electric House CD (one half of an Electric House and Trance compilation) was bound to impress (as do all things electro in the current musical climate). With a carefully selected and largely spot on choice of tracks, the compilation gives a good representation of the current thriving electro house scene. A couple of ill-considered decisions do occur but if this CD was the backing track to a party they would be easily ignored.
Fedde le Grand has become a name that even those unfamiliar with bouncing to bleeps on a sweaty dancefloor will recognize, so the opening track of this compilation, 'Take no Shhh', not only impresses with its effortless coolness but also draws in those new to the scene with a familiar name. The tracks move seamlessly along, a result of the flawless mixing of DJ Computer and highlights in the first half of the CD include 'Body Language', 'Remember' and 'Atrium', with a dirty bassline injecting a rawness into the album which is reinforced by Martijn ten Velden & Lucian Foort’s Bassification. Josh Wink’s 'Higher State of Consciousness', proves that it will not lay down and rest and makes an appearance here in the form of a Dirty South and TV Rock remix, hugely popular on electro-house dancefloors at the moment.
Worth mentioning are D Ramirez’s remix of Ferry Corsten’s classic, 'Junk', bringing it comfortably up to date with the scene, and 'Let it drop' by DJ Delicious, a funky crowd pleaser. The CD closes with a slightly disappointing reworking of Tiesto’s 'In the Dark'.
Overall its a good, solid electro-house album; combining remixed classics with fresh new sound from the leaders of the genre. However, it must be said, we expect better from Godskitchen!
