Legend and genius. Two words that are often bandied about rather unjustly to describe various DJ�s and producers of the dance music world however, surely these words are none more applicable than to Detroit techno king Carl Craig. The man has been responsible for some of the most seminal and timeless dance tracks of the past 20 years. �Sessions� is the first time Craig�s best works have been available all together for the first time, like a sort of greatest hits package but with the added bonus of some previously unreleased tracks, alternative and unreleased mixes.

Legend and genius. Two words that are often bandied about rather unjustly to describe various DJ�s and producers of the dance music world however, surely these words are none more applicable than to Detroit techno king Carl Craig. The man has been responsible for some of the most seminal and timeless dance tracks of the past 20 years. �Sessions� is the first time Craig�s best works have been available all together for the first time, like a sort of greatest hits package but with the added bonus of some previously unreleased tracks, alternative and unreleased mixes.
Spread over two discs it contains most of his recent highlights such as last year�s supreme remix of Junior Boys �Like A Child�, the unreleased mix of Faze Action�s classic �In The Trees� and the soaring remix of Theo Parrish�s �Falling Up�, which are all absolutely essential cuts in any self respecting DJ�s collection. The disc also includes some of his earlier tracks under his Paperclip People guise such as �Climax� and �Throw�, which will forever in my opinion be his finest moment. It�s a pity that the discs come mixed; however I�m sure this has been done to ensure that the tracks receive longevity, which can only be a good thing. Long live the King.
