 Encyclopedia of Electronic Music - reviews
I must admit that with the announced album of traditional Berlin School Electronic Music I was a bit fearful that it will be a complete copy of 70’s Tangerine Dream, but thankfully this is not the case.
Therefore, it is possible that Ron Boots (who mastered the album) or the musicians themselves made use of the “analog” function on the desk, although I wouldn’t bet on it.
The album is brought to an end with typical schulzian contrast and the following mild and atmospheric section with cosmic melodies and twittering synths, while drums take the back seat and eventually fade out with the rest of the sounds.

"Well this is the Maestro, I have the doctorate for all things," Beenie Man boasts on the opening to Maestro's title track, and then proceeds to show off his skill across this superb album.
A lack of coherent sequencing is the set's only real flaw, for as the DJ is determined to prove himself a master of all things, so the Shocking Vibes Crew, who oversee most of the numbers, are equally keen to showboat their own range of riddims.
It's a heady brew, careening across the extremes of genres, which on album can be a bit disconcerting.
