When the tracklisting to Balance 007 landed in my Inbox, it immediately appeared to me that perhaps Chris had, for me at least, nailed the track selection. It was a premonition that soon came to fruition once I had heard the 3 mixes (yes 3 discs!), that Chris had delivered. This is quite simply the best Fortier has displayed on CD, and it is by far the most diverse mix Fortier has put together in his veteran like impact on this wonderful Electronic music scene.
Balance 007. Critic Score.
Balance 007 Bonus Disc (CD, Mixed, Unofficial). EQ Recordings (2). EQGCD010. The mixes feel very organic and unified. They seem to be pulsating with their own, uncompromising, alien life, so if you're expecting a sweet, feel-good dreamy time, be warned: these mixes take you to a darker place and I wouldn't recommend these as soundtrack to your nice social gathering.
In a time when the words progressive house are no longer as chic as they once were, it is artists such as Chris Fortier who are genuinely pushing the sound forward. No greater example would be Chris 2002 Bedrock compilation mix CD. Rather than including big names, he chose to create a platform for artists such as Meat Katie, Jay Tripwire, and Randall Jones before they went on to greater success. DJs boast about playing the world, few can genuinely claim to cover as many international air miles as Fortier.
