5 / 10
Nobody cares that house music originated in Chicago underground clubs. But don't fret. A compilation that depends heavily on functional tunes by vaguely anonymous artists is what the people really want - an index of developments in British dance since acid house that is shamelessly populist and revisionist.
Necessary or evil? Only recommended to collectors and amnesiacs.
