Album Description

Excellent double disc mix album from one of the world's up-and-coming trance superstars. Disc 1 mixed by Sander Kleinenberg, Disc 2 mixed by Lee Burridge.

Customer Reviews:

It takes time to enjoy this CD.......2007-05-28

When I first got the CD, I was a little disappointed. After listening to Lee's Disc for about 3 times, I started to feel the beat. At that point I was wondering why Sander did a poor job on his Disc.
After listening to Lee's Disc for about 1 week, I decided to give Sander's Disc another try, and I was surprised because Sander's disc had a better set than Lee's Disc(which was already amazing), but it just took time to get into this CD.

Half good in my opinion.......2007-02-21

I liked Sander's disc a lot. His style is very off-beat and different than most of his peers. He has a taste for mixing unusual trance and house tracks as his style. I enjoyed his mix as much as his other "This is Everybody" compilations and perhaps the best of the 5 total discs in his sets.

On the otherhand, I cannot say much for the Burridge compilation. To me, it was boring. It didn't have the flash and sounds I have come to love in the Electronica genre. His style is much more subtle than the multi-layered and complex rhythms of most trance/house stylings. Much more simple synth cords over solid beats. Not quite my taste, but perhaps others differ.

Give it a few good listens!.......2007-02-06

First listen: mediocre, disappointment
Second listen: Lee's disc has some great beats
Third listen: SANDER's HIDDEN GENIUS EMERGES!!!!
I Love both CD's. To me, it's one of Sander's best. Just give it a good listen in your car, Alone, no interruptions. You will rediscover the hidden subtleties behind Sander's head-thumping beats! The progression is even better than his other two Everybody's.
Lee's disc was amazing, great tunes, great beats. But Lee fails to meet the depth and classy talent that Sander pulsates with.
Dark, powerful, and confident DJ'ing from both CD's! They also managed to add some great funky flavors by using lots of COWBELL and CLAPPING!
My ears are aching from listening to this cd too loud

Sander seems to release one great recording for a while.......2007-01-06

and since the previous one was absolutely amazing, this one is....I threw it out the car window. I've never heard such boring and random acts wimp ness as this recording is. So sticking to my trend next one should be much better.

Expanding the Limitations of Sound.......2006-08-25

In the past several years, I have been dissapointed many times by the more and more electro-funk/retro-80s vocal style that most Djs have started playing.

This is Everybody! On tour is different. It does not take you back to the deep dark progressive sounds and beats of the Delta heavy times. However, it is far from a cheesy vocal mix overpowerd by electro sounds.

This CD is a great introduction to the range of styles that encompass progressive house as it is today and somewhat allow us to open up to some of the newer elements present today. It includes tracks form different styles, all pretaining a certain pushing element and deep baseline that keeps the music interesting and energetic, without getting annoying.

Disc 1 is somewaht of a compositions.starts out with a track that would fit best into a eclectic electronica genre and slowly builds up a tempo. As the Cd progresses the Basslines become heavier and deeper. Although never loosing a groovy touch, the first CD is a goood mix that does not get boering.

Disc 2 starts out much faster. It is more of a dance mix then a composition. Many of the songs have driving baselines that are deep and still groovy. Although sometimes vocal, this CD keeps it interesting by alternating progressive styles.

Overall I loved both CD's, more than the previous release by Sander K.

Amazon.com

With this delicious double-disc investigating deep trance to the earthiest degree, Dutchman Sander Kleinenberg proves himself a rare and true gem in the ever-expanding world of DJs and producers. Every track he touches becomes imbued with an expert's sense of love and levity. But the real excitement here is supplied by Kleinenberg's ear for music. Subsequently, his track selection is never anything less than genuinely enthralling: Mike Vandenberg's "Spooky," a scintillating update on Harold Faltermayer; Virtuoso's almost tantric blast of energy, "Stay With Me;" and his own eerie Moroder-esque twister, "Hidden Agenda." Kleinenberg's enthusiastic energy on this seamless mix of trance, techno, and funky house also subtly complements the mood of the music. Witness the way Audiomontage's "Fly Baby" cruises before slipping into the fast lane with East West Connection's punchy dance-floor motions on "Once I've Been There," or even the gleefully assaultive partnership of Marc O'Tools's "Stauffenberg" and Pariah's "Keep the Peace." Everyone knows names like Nick Warren and John Digweed, but this guy is only just scratching the surface of mainstream fame. Buy this set, give him a year, and know that Sander Kleinenberg will be one of the world's top DJs. --Steffan Chirazi

Customer Reviews:

Outside the Kleinenberg Box...Halfway at Least.......2007-05-27

Holland native Sander Kleinenberg hits the decks for Global Underground: Nubreeds' fourth release. I hesitated on this album for a long period of time as I don't really enjoy the majority of Kleinenberg's sets...especially when he is playing live. They lack versatility and depth.

Saying this, I was unbelievably overjoyed with Disc 1 of this album. It still remains one of my favorite compilations to date. He wonderfully builds up the tempo with sleek progressive house tracks and skillfully shifts into darker progressive trance to finish the set off. Kleinenberg clearly embraces his UK influences with his track selection for disc 1.

Disc 2 is more of what I expect to hear when I think of Sander Kleinenberg. Not the first half of the CD, buy definitely the second half. Midway through disc 2 his track selection charts familiar territory. An overabundance of spacey sounding techno and hard progressive trance tracks that seem to blend into one long and mundane track. I lose interest here.

Disc 1 gets 5/5 stars and in my opinion is worth the cost of the album on its own. Disc 2 gets 3/5 stars but rarely gets air time at my place.

Finally.......2006-08-25

I finally got a groove for this album on the second cd. The first disc seems like the same groove for four tracks and doesn't switch until Mike Vanderberg's Spooky. I gave Sander K a chance and bought This is everybody on tour, and I wasn't necessarily feeling that. I gave this album a chance, and established a liking for this high ranked dj. The form of the album reminds me of Sasha-Ibiza in the sense that it takes half the first cd to establish a groove and then follows through with great transitions on the second cd.

Beyond Bliss!.......2006-05-29

I wudnt really write a review unless something is really buggy or extraordinary , so here I couldnt stop myself to rate this magnificent audio masterpiece.

Words fall short describing this extraordinary 'THING', Sander Kleinenberg has put together. The songs emit solid energy rite from the word go, mixing into higher echelons... making you feel ecstatically elevated once every while.
Needless to mention the somewhat magically compiled tracklist. Each song sounds like a gem here, or maybe its the masterful mixing of Kleinenberg. The songs somehow just mix into each other without a trace.... you know just FUSE into each other!

I love Pvd, Ferry, Nick Warren, Dave Seaman, Lawler, Sasha and the likes.... BUT I haven't heard anything like this from anyone of them before.

yeah... its that good!

A MUST buy for anyone who appreciates music in general. or even for the noobs who wanna show off some club action at their local bbq.

10 out of 5 *s any day.

clean, energetic, and simple.......2005-10-31

CD 1: 5 stars
CD 2: 5 stars
This mix is my first Sander K compilation and boy did it come out of left field and knock me on my butt. The entire set is put together differently than most sasha/digweed types out there. It is more focused on beats and how they combined together. Sander K does an awesome job of making the experience a roller coaster ride. First the set starts off slow and builds. Then bam! You're thrown into this blend of clean and rhythmic beats. Pretty soon you can't stop tapping your foot and nodding your head. NuBreed is always a mix you can come back to months later and still have awe and appreciation for it. A pure classic.

solid as expected.......2004-08-14

I didn't discover Sander Klienenberg's mixes until his last one "
Renaissance Presents Everybody"

So, I decided to check out his earlier work and as I expected it was excellent. He has become one of my favorite djs now. Considering I am more into Goa trance, I was impressed with his abilities to perfectly blend together an awesome progressive mix. Highly, recommended. This mix is not as mellow as "
Renaissance Presents Everybody" and it has that dark deep sound to it.

Average customer rating: Pretty close to perfect... other reviews seem a little inflated Sander my Savior! Great tracks but rough in some spots... get everybody!

Album Description

Brand new 2XCD mix from Holland's acclaimed DJ/Producer Sander Kleinenberg. This man knows how dancefloors work: he's instigated sweaty scenes around the world, observing what makes people move from Boston to Belfast to Buenos Aires. Ultimately, the mechanics of the dancefloor revolve around just one thing: good dance music. Sander knows about this, too. As a DJ, he has released two critically acclaimed mix CD's: the first for G.U.'s NUBREED series and the second for ESSENTIAL MIX. The last two years have also been a watershed for Sander as a producer: from his recent massive remixes of JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE'S "ROCK YOUR BODY" and J Records' ANNIE LENNOX, to his original productions which are regularly championed by the elite progressive house & trance DJ's around the world, Sander is following close in the footsteps of PAUL OAKENFOLD and DEEP DISH by establishing himself as a world class DJ, producer, and big-name remixer. On Renaissance Presents: Everybody, Sander dips into a deep bag of funky dancefloor numbers that present the best in current progressive house sounds while also giving us a glimpse into the future of the genre.

Customer Reviews:

Pretty close to perfect..........2006-09-17

Sander K said something to the likes of "If it's perfect, there's no point in doing it anymore." This album is pretty close. Good funky grooves and cool introduction make for a solid progressive album. It gets a little repetitive at times so maybe it isn't perfect, but pretty cool. The first cd gets better as it approaches Rock- Be as one and Stars. These are great tracks.

other reviews seem a little inflated.......2006-07-15

I bought this CD based in large part due to the numerous high reviews by other people but I was kind of dissapointed with the CD. It's not that the CD was bad.....it just wasn't that good, pretty mediocre in my opinion. Most of the songs sound pretty generic but "My Memory" is a really good song. Not particularly recommended.

Sander my Savior!.......2006-03-23

For me, Sander defined deep / funky house. This two disc set flows smoothly, mainly tapping into the deep, 4/4, 120BMP speaker shaking tracks he blends so perfectly. A ton of or9a$m*c BASS!!! You may not love every track at first, but give it time and you'll find loving certain tracks first, others second and finally listening to the mix all the way through, non-stop, over and over again. My iTunes "play count" hovers high on all of his tracks - even single(s) remixes. Almost anything Mr. Kleinenberg touches turns to pure 11pm-6am gold. Great for driving, too.

Great tracks but rough in some spots..........2006-02-02

It seems that Sander's mixing is consistent with his NuBreed compliation- I was thoroughly blown away by NuBreed's first disc, with its fluid mixing and impecable track selection. Disc two however left much to be desired. The same can be said about Everybody as some moments are sheer brilliance while others seem mediocre. For instance, the second disc is mixed brilliantly mixed up until My Memory, which is an outstanding record but loses some of its luster after an unimpressive mix out of Therapy. Also, 2 Bags of Grass seems tacked on and out of place on the disc. Overall this is a phenomenal CD that really highlights his talent as a DJ and producer, despite the rough patches.

get everybody! .......2005-10-29

CD1: 5 stars
CD2: 5 stars
Sander K always manages to compose well thought out and mixed sets. Everybody is no exception. It has a retro or old school feel to it in several parts, which makes it both funny and enjoyable. Intense beats are thrown into the tracks as well, which are madly addicting. You'll find yourself walking down the street playing the beat patterns back in your head or whistling a wordless ditty. The vocals are solid and well chosen. Everybody gets better with each listen because I initially didn't like it at first. Now I can't keep it out of my playlists. Don't let pass this one pass you up!

Not Quite.......2007-06-06

I had to check out some of Sander Kleinenberg's commercial releases on labels other than Global Underground and Renaissance. I never liked his hard techno and progressive trance sets, but after listening to disc 1 of his Nubreed album and both discs of Renaissance Presents Everybody I wanted to find more releases where he focuses primarily on mixing tracks from house genres.

This album is no where near the caliber of sets featured on the three discs mentioned above. Sure the set falls under a progressive house album, but it has the feel of his live sets where he mixes a lot of hard progressive trance tracks that tend lack of depth. Very mediocre track selection on this one.

3/5 stars for this effort.

Ok.......2006-09-26

This mix is okay. Not as progressive as other Sander K releases. The track selection isn't all that great. Comando Heaven is probably the best track.

Lacking outstanding track selection.......2005-12-14

as always, the dutchman comes through with quality mixxing talent. unfortunately for me, i felt there was a lack for outstanding musical selection. i didnt feel like there were any outstanding tracks... nothing with a unique and outstanding rhythm. i like progressive mixes, but i have to say this mix didn't progress to anything outstanding.

Really good mix.......2003-04-13

Good blend of tracks from your tribal to trance....although it kinda lagged toward the end. There's at least 5 or 6 good tracks to make purchasing this cd worthwhile. I'm not saying this 'cause I've become a fan of this guy.

sander kleinenberg does it again.......2003-03-31

Sander Kleinenberg gives you a quality mix...The mix begins very dark and tribal and ends a little more trancy...A must have for progressive minded people!!

In a music landscape filled with slick, but predictable mix cds, we can thank the dance gods for Sander Kleinenberg. Hailing from The Hague, Holland, his willingness to venture into more cerebral material lifts This Is Everybody Too into the same tech-space dreamland that gave its predecessor, Everybody such a lovely kick. The electro and experimental tangents are more in the foreground here, as both discs in the 2-disc set are woven throughout with sparse sounds from the likes of the Junior Boys ("Birthday") and Robag Wruhme (the schizophrenic "Hugenduble"). But along with the New Wave fixations and highbrow electronics, Too gets dirty as well, especially on Kleinenberg's own ultra-funky "The Fruit" from Disc 2. And there's nothing intellectual about the big thumps and up-vibe house melodies that drop on songs from Deepsky, Ericke, among others. Few DJs, in fact, can pull off a compilation with such appeal to both the brain and the body, but that's just another day in the office for this man. --Matthew Cooke

Customer Reviews:

Thank you.......2006-09-13

This cd is faboulous. I bought This is everybody on tour first and it took me a while to warm up to it. This cd is a hit right off the first bat with Birthday by Junior Boys. It might not match up with his Nubreed double disc but it is different, yeah, it is different.

Sander my Savior! pt 2.......2006-03-23

A great follow up to his 'Everybody' disc set, Too, is bold, dark and what I'd consider, auditory heaven at times. This second set of discs has what feels more like a mix of daytime and nighttime tracks. Some bouncy, vocal and melodic - good for the day of the party ("Mindtrip"). Some trax could be found during super-dark 3am-6am sweat drenching aft hrs parties ("Seventh Morning"). Of course, like any compilation, you'll find a few tracks to be weak or fillers, but which those may or may not be are up to each lucky Sander listener.

If you like music categorized as "deep, dark, house", then add this to your collection, Too! ;-)

Sander K at his best.......2005-10-31

CD1: 4.5 stars
CD2: 5 stars
Sander K manages to produce another bad ass set. I didn't like Everybody Too at first, but it has been slowly growing on me. The mix has a retro feel to it just like Everybody. Depending on your taste, you may enjoy either CD1 over CD2 or visa-versa. I love CD2 because it is very smooth and the way Sander K transitions in between Party to the Music and Waves is mind numbing! He uses what I call a stutter-step beat as a pivot over to the next song (difficult to explain), which is the icing on the cake. CD1 is great with a good selection of retro songs that blend well with the combination of modern beats. Nothing much else to say other this set shows Sander K doing his best: mixing songs and making you forgot your troubles.

Kleinenberg's best???.......2005-07-01

Loved this mix. Can't say that I'm too fond of Disc one, but Disc two is "off the hook". Great track selection - this one's playing at my next party.

Amazon.com essential recording

This collection presents all Webern's works with opus numbers in chronological order, allowing listeners to scrutinize the inner workings of this influential composer's intense, compressed style from the lush Passacaglia to the starkness of his late vocal works. A broadcast recording of Webern conducting a group of Schubert Dances makes a lively bonus. --Jed Distler

Customer Reviews:

Excellent Webern from the master Boulez and company........2006-09-12

Boulez has a DG recording, which I have several singles from that set. The DG is very good and recommended as a second set. This Sony recording is outstanding and the finest in my Webern collection. If you have this set , you still may want to look at the DG set. Why? Because this music is so wonderful, so that another experience is well worth the price of say $40. But if you have the DG set, you definetly want to keep that set and also get this Sony set.
Notice how few new Webern recordings are released. When conductors hear this set, I guess they feel its pointless to try to meet these standards. The artists here are all in excellent form and understanding of this extremely difficult but rewarding music.

Webern may grow on you and Boulez et al. are worth every penny........2005-09-18

If you are looking for an introduction to Webern, give this a try. It has the advatage of being comprehensive and well played. If you don't like all of Webern, so be it. If you buy this recording and give it a few listenings you will have heard enough to make an informed judgement.

I have found that Webern's music demands mutiple hearings before you can say you've really heard it. When you are in the mood for some 20th century pioneering work, turn to this recording and listen. Over time, you will be glad you did.

Interesting and Challenging.......2004-04-09

I don't know if I "like" Webern, but he is certainly interesting and challenging. The textures of his music are very fragile and transparent. The pieces are extraordinarily economical (the average Webern piece, I would guess, is about two minutes in duration, maybe less). The dissonances are extreme (strange to say, twelve-tone music can vary in how dissonant it sounds, as some twelve-tone composers (Berg, for example) use "easier" tone rows as the bases of their works). Webern was a musician of great integrity, and he pushed twelve-tone music to the radical extreme (as compared his more conservative teacher, Schoenberg, and fellow-pupil, Berg.) Again, I don't know if it works, and I don't know if I like it. I will definitely continue to listen to it. What I definitely like is this wonderful recording, with performances lovingly rendered. For this reason, I'm giving the recording five stars. However, if you want an "easier" introduction to twelve-tone and atonal music, get Berg's Violin Concerto, or even Schoenberg's piano concerto. With respect to the Schoenberg piano concerto, Mitsuko Uchida's disc is wonderful, and is highly recommended.

The original and still the best.......2003-11-25

Boulez's seminal original recordings of Webern are still important today. They capture the extraordinary distance this composer travelled from his tonal opus 1 passacaglia, though the atonal expressionism of the opus 5 and opus 6 pieces, the extreme compression of the opus 9 bagatelles, the contrapuntal abstraction of the mid-period songs to the serial masterpieces of his later years. These pieces still divide concert audiences today--I've been to Webern performances where half the audience was electrified and the other half clearly wanted to be elsewhere--but their historical significance cannot be denied. I believe their musical significance cannot either: close on a dozen of these works are amongst the finest pieces the 20th century has to offer. This set of performances, dating from the late 1960s and early 1970s and largely recorded under the direction by Pierre Boulez, has long since been regarded as being as close to definitive as one can get. I wouldn't go so far--there are occasional less impressive performances (such as the saxophone quartet) amongst the very fine ones. However, as complete sets go, I find the performances here largely superior to Boulez's more recent traversal on DG.

Technically, this set is not a Complete Works. It only includes those works that Webern published with an opus number, with the addition of the composer's wonderful orchestral transcription of the Ricercare a 6 from Bach's Musical Offering, and an old recording of Webern conducting his orchestrations of Schubert's German Dances. There are more works included on Boulez's rival set on DG--at twice the price--but most of what you gain are juvenilia.

And, for those who remain unconvinced that they'd like Webern, check out http://www.antonwebern.com -- a website that has free streaming mp3s of several of the recordings on this set. Listen to a few of them a few times (though skip the opus 16-18 songs, some of his driest works), and then decide.

Boulez's Webern -- brilliant modern miniatures.......2001-11-27

All 31 works that Webern gave official Opus numbers on 3 discs, conducted by Boulez (not Kolbe!), with the Juilliard Quartet and the London Symphony Orchestra, and a superb booklet with commentary and lyrics -- so why only 4 stars? My objection is the strictly chronological presentation, and the fact that I am not won over by Webern's vocal works -- I would vastly prefer grouping the music by form. Everything is brilliantly performed, and Charles Rosen, who accompanies sopranos on piano on several pieces, plays with sparkling luminosity. But the reason I sought out this collection is because I wanted to hear Boulez's versions of Webern's masterpieces, the "Symphony (Op. 21)" and "Variations for Orchestra (Op. 30)," as well as the string trios and quartets. Here these instrumental works are mixed among the lieders, Webern's many vocal works, and I find this frustrating. I prefer hearing the instrumental pieces grouped together, as on the Dohnanyi or Sinopoli discs of orchestral works (see my reviews of both), or the Schoenberg or Emerson Quartet's discs of the string trios and quartets (see my reviews of both). Unfortunately there is not a Boulez disc comparable to the Dohnanyi (on London) or Sinopoli (on Teldec). So it's either this Sony box or the several more recently recorded discs on DG, unless of course you are a total Webern fanatic and want the Ultra-Complete box with all the numbered AND un-numbered pieces...

It's really hard to fault this excellent Webern collection. Obviously if you have a more catholic appreciation of Webern's music than I (including the vocal works), my criticism is irrelevant. If you are a completist on a budget, this is a clear choice over the more expensive box. But if you are looking for an introduction to Webern's music, the best of which is some of the best of the 20th century in my opinion, I suggest that you begin with 1) Dohnanyi and the Cleveland Orchestra, and 2) the Schoenberg Quartet.

[There is a mistake on the site. Pierre Boulez is the conductor, not Helmuth Kolbe. Careful inspection of the box reveals that Kolbe was the engineer...]
