Reactivate was and still is a highly sought after and much revered collection that started out way back in 1991 and continued through to the early 00's before unfortunately React Records went bust.
Although React branched out into genres as diverse as Gabba, Art Jungle, Chill Out, Happy House & Happy Hardcore, their strength lay in the release of countless Techno & Trance compilations and singles. The most notable being the Reactivate collection which covered 18 volumes over the space of a decade...
Out of these releases, two particular volumes (the second of which I'll come to shortly) give an insight into React Records & Reactivate at their creative peak.
Razor Sharp Beats & Bytes is the 9th Volume. With Blu Peter on mixing duties, pioneering the Nu-NRG movement that was prevalent particularly in clubs such as Heaven, Trade & FF's .
This techno / trance monster of an album brings many a happy memory of nights lost on the dancefloor...
This particular version of the album is the limited edition mixed version by Blu Peter.
