    Brilliant release !!! I changed my opinion on techno LPs! lovely masterpiece of variations of techno, that early 90es could offer, every track like a little mix itself, wandering from acid over trance to hardcorelemetns with a mellow melting. Thank you Oliver :*

      Each track here is of the very long kind and has a live feel to it. Monotonous in parts, yet extremely varied from one section to another (with even a 20bpm shift in one particular instance). The downside is that they are a bit all over the place, not entirely sure of what they are trying to be. This results in the (very) good rubbing feathers with the (very) cheesy. That renders this double pack pretty much useless for conventional DJs, and is probably the reason why it has mostly disappeared under the radar. As a collection of shorter tracks, it could have become a classic. As it is, it is a confusing piece.

        I've submitted a review of the CD release of this and whatever I said stands. This is some of the finest techno ever produced, HANDS DOWN! Well, what makes it so great? The fact that unlike so many releases to come along, even for its time, these tracks completely defy subgenres. There's a little hardcore, trance, acid, breaks, even mild elements of house, all within the span of a track! Exceedingly innovative, the high point on this collection is the title track "Lost In Spice". I think it blows away just about anything else ever written. I used to think it was the weed making me feel that far out in space, but now that I'm a father and I've given up the weed, I now realize that it is in fact the music itself making me feel that far out in space. That's no lie - when I want to "get high" now, I just slap on Side 4 of this definitive collection, and it's rockets away for my mind. It'll launch you there! And each track is unique in its own way. Yeah, this was before the "same-old" bug bit techno as a whole. This was when creative drive was still climbing in the world of techno. This was before the "Great Sell-Out" of 1995. I know this isn't the only superiorly innovative techno out there, I have lots of other really innovative stuff, too, but this is way at the top of the heap. Then, now and forevermore among the best of the very best ever made - A CORNERSTONE OF MY COLLECTION! This rates about 300 on a scale of 1 - 10.
