Someone gave me the Annual 2000 as a gift. I like the first disc (mixed by Judge Jules), but not so much the second (Tall Paul). If I'm not mistaken, it's sort of a collection of all the big Ibiza tunes from the past year. A lot of cheese, but some cool tracks, and Judge Jules can really mix like a pro. I can only imagine what he could do with some more classy material.
P.S. this is also my "coming out comment," so to speak.

Subject: My coming out comment - Ministry of Sound
Dear List,
After playing the role of the lurker since the days before the AJ T-Shirt, I finally have a question that I couldn't resist to ask. So, here it goes. I was out hunting for discs today & picked up "Ministry of Sound - The Annual 2000." I couldn't believe I've been missing the label... Or actually, the sound! The house/progressive/garage/blissful-desire-to-dance type music. Where have I been? Did I just get struck by lightening to realize what is 2-step? (I literally slept through the entire "what is 2-step" discussion.)
I stand to be enlightened.
Max
