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

great compilation for energy boostin
played or not on the tv show, it s a great boosting compilation for the gym.... 50 min of spinning are easy to go thru with this beats. i like it..

Pumpin' compilation
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.

Awesome Set!
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!
