Aphrodite - Takeover Bid: Round One

The first volume in the Takeover Bid series (manned by Mickey Finn on round two) includes an unsurprising clutch of tracks by Aphrodite himself ("Underworld," "Wikki Wikki Plate," "Rising Quince," "Bomber Style"), though none are major anthems. The other selections -- by Click 'n Cycle, Dj Tee Bee, even a remix of a Prodigy track -- aren't stellar, King's mixing saves the day and makes Takeover Bid: Round One a solid jump-up album. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
