Album InformationContagious Drum & Bass Vol 3Release Date : Jul 2002 Catalogue Number : CONCD3 Label : Just Another Label Disc 1
Contagious Music is proud to present the third installation in this Drum & Bass CD series. "Contagious 3" takes a detour from the previous albums, 1 & 2 taking the listener on a different trip to the more melodic, abstract and chillin’ side of Drum & Bass.
The album kicks off with Funky Technicians classic "Airtight" which was released back in the day. Its mystical, atmospheric tones are a great opener and prepare you for what’s to come. Also featured is Optical's first ever tune “Cut Throat Flow†which is a nice, dubbed-out affair with lots happening to keep your attention; this will definitely have a wide appeal. The Spirit (from Phantom Audio Recordings) also makes an appearance with a track called "Prologue". This minimal, no fuss Drum & Bass workout will have your head nodding and feet tapping, and fits nicely into this concept album. "Hangman" by X-Men is a funky little number. Peppered with hypnotic pipes and discordant synth stabs it is surprisingly dark. Also featured are the not forgotten and most respected Nuclear Fusion with "Cosmic Messenger" from the Solid State label. Mixed to perfection by DJ Quartz, "Contagious 3" will take you through states of harmony, hypnosis, fixation, relaxation and contagion, and is seriously good head music. Not necessarily full of club anthems this album still features tunes that have been played on the circuit, in the clubs and on the radio. To be enjoyed in the comforts of your own home or in more alternative coffee/cyber lounges, "Contagious 3" is at such a bargain price that it would be a crime to let it pass you by. |
