I would say that After Hours One is much more of how I enjoy "after hours"
music, mellow, dreamlike, environmental grooves. This grouping of songs is
really complements each other. It feat. songs from Brooklyn Funk
Essentials, DJ Krush, Kruder & Dorfmeister, DJ Food, 9Lazy9, Hedfunk and
several others. I HIGHLY recommend checking this compilation out, its
definitely the best I have seen from Instinct, and (not to be too
sacreligious, but) it is up there with Sketches of Spain in my chill out
musics catagory.

After hours two is a good compilation of music, but I don't think that
it is really an "after hours" album, more it is an okay album, but no
different than say the Next Step compilation or other This is Acid Jazz
comps. On top of this several of the songs on After Hours Two are found on
several other Instinct and other labals Compilations.
