Quote of the day

"The Anthems series has easily established itself as the market leader of genre based compilations. Electronic 80's was the first to veer away from the usual dance model and since then Ministry of Sound have continued to push the boundaries and release the very best music from genres including Disco, R&B & Hip Hop."

Dance music really must be in a dire state if even those prophets of populist beats are resorting to indie compilations to prop themselves up. HMV's puff writer seems to have got a little carried away - to suggest that Ministry Of Sound are continuing to "push the boundaries" when the album features the likes of Space, The Kooks, Chumbawamba, Lenny Kravitz and Dubstar requires a very creative imagination indeed...
