Master of the triple turntable setup and the originator of tribal house, DJ Godfather Junior Vasquez returns in full force with his legendary remixing style. After failures with artist recordings and ill-attended residencies in the '90s, Vasquez is back in form. Sounds that Vasquez originated during the heyday of NYC's Sound Factory are now ubiquitous in house, but a Vasquez mix is still a marvel, driven by unique flourishes and expert pacing. Earth Music kicks it from the start, riding through Ke's bubbly "Believer," Ghostland's hymnal "Guide Me, God" (with Sinead O'Connor), and Lectroluv's progressive "Movin On" to Junior's remixes of Deborah Cox, Billie Ray Martin, Dolce, and Ceevox. Being a house-head is essential for truly enjoying Junior's latest, but even if you prefer downtempo or drum and bass, Earth Music's eclectic touches and roller-coaster vocal tracks make it more than just another house remix retread. Junior's still got the juice. --Ken Micallef
