Love vs. Hate or New Rave vs. Old Rave.

[BrotherLovesDub]

Do both actually suck? I do feel nostalgic listening to old (89-92) rave tracks and will admit to being a grumpy old man "not as good as in my day" complainer when talking about "new rave" or whatever. I want to hate this compilation (http://www.play.com/Music/CD/RCS/3-/...e/Product.html) that pits Old Rave on disc 1 agains New Rave on disc 2, but both tracklistings look pretty good and i know i like about 6 or 7 tracks on disc 2 already. Actually want to get this disc now to see which one I prefer and how much memories and predjudices plays a part. Looks like a cheesy cash-in compilation may have been able to 'get the balance right'.
