Review by George Easton

Club Hits 2000 II: A Time Capsule of Electronic Vibes That Still Slaps Alright, let’s talk about Club Hits 2000 II. This album is like a snapshot of what the German electronic scene was vibin’ to at the turn of the millennium. Released under Reef Recordings in—you guessed it—2000, this compilation brings together all the big hitters of the time: Trance, Techno, and House. If you were anywhere near a club back then (or just dreamed of being there), this one's probably on your radar. Now, I’ll be honest—I’m not gonna sit here and pretend every single track blew my mind. But a couple of them? Oh man, they stuck with me. Let’s dive into those. First up, we’ve got "House Of God ($50 Mix)". You might think, “What kind of name is that?” but trust me, once you hear it, you won’t care. It’s dark, brooding, and kinda holy in its own weird way. The beat builds slowly, almost teasing you before it drops into this hypnotic rhythm that makes your feet move without asking permission. What really gets me is how smooth yet intense it feels—it’s like standing in a cathedral made entirely out of basslines. And yeah, maybe calling it "$50 Mix" is a little random, but hey, it works. Then there’s "Atmosphere (Arne L II Mix)", which hits different. This one feels more ethereal, like floating through clouds while someone whispers secrets in your ear. The synths are lush, the groove is steady, and honestly, it’s one of those tracks that reminds you why people fall in love with electronic music. When you listen closely, you can hear layers upon layers of sound weaving together. It doesn’t scream for attention; instead, it pulls you in quietly until you’re hooked. The rest of the album has its moments too—tracks like "Freestyler (Freestyler Mix)" bring energy, while deeper cuts like "Biological Response (Connected Mix)" keep things interesting. Some remixes feel a bit dated now (it is over 20 years old, after all), but overall, it’s still a solid ride. What strikes me most about Club Hits 2000 II is how unapologetically itself it is. There’s no trying to please everyone here—it’s pure electronic goodness aimed straight at the dancefloor. Listening to it today feels like opening a time capsule from an era when clubs were temples and DJs were gods. Weirdly enough, though, some of these tracks could still hold their own in modern sets. That says something about the timeless nature of good production. So yeah, if you’re into Trance, Techno, or House—or even if you’re just curious about what people were losing their minds to in Y2K-era Germany—this album’s worth checking out. Just don’t blame me if you find yourself accidentally turning your living room into a mini rave. Oh, and fun fact? After spinning this album, I suddenly had the urge to dig out my old glow sticks. No clue where they came from, but hey, nostalgia’s funny like that.
