As if the
Points in Time compilations weren't enough, the subsequent
Looking Back series saw
LTJ Bukem's marketing maestro finding yet another way to dust down and re-badge the label's back catalog. However, where the
Points in Time series acted as an anthology of the label, capturing both back catalog highlights and tracks which the team felt had, perhaps unfairly, been overlooked,
Looking Back is something of a much poorer cousin. This incarnation sees undeniable classics from
Seba and
Photek's
Aquarius project rub shoulders with much less exciting offerings from the likes of
J Laze,
Rantoul, and
Mark J. With these well-worn sounds bulking up much of the album, the resultant selection is only for the most ardent collector.
