Praise for Circuit Breaker Vol 1: FBI Radio: Sunset Album of the Week EDGE Radio: Album of the Week 3D Magazine: “Even a cursory listen to Circuit Breaker Vol 1 will fill you with faith and pride in the Australian music scene. The crew from Lightsounds decided it was high time to draw some of those wicked tracks out of the computers of local producers and bands and bring them into the limelight. The result is an extremely impressive collection of hip hop, breaks and electro that will quite frankly knock your socks off.’ 7/10. BRAG Magazine: “Firstly props must be given to Lightsounds for putting money behind emerging Australian talent and with this being Volume One we can only hope for more. It won‚t be long until these artists are filling dance floors world wide.” **** (4 Stars) BEAT Magazine: “Listen up wannabe producers- the Circuit Breaker series is your chance to be heard. This homegrown compilation from Lightsounds aims to get your music out of your bedroom. Volume 1 has a buffet of electronic splendour ranging from Hip Hop to Breaks and Electro. And despite the amateur status of these artists, the quality at hand is anything but.” **** 4 Stars RAVE Magazine: “This CD, compiled following a nationwide call-out for new electronic music, offers a strikingly diverse but surprisingly cohesive sampling of emerging Australian hip hop and electronic talent. Highlights are numerous. All in all, a compilation that's both worthy and worth your time.” CB1 MYSPACE: http://www.myspace.com/circuitbreaker001
