Perfecto Presents: Another World
''Perfecto Presents: Another World'' is the twelfth DJ mix album by British electronic music producer Paul Oakenfold, released in 2000. It is the second instalment in his ''Perfecto Presents'' series, a series of DJ mix albums themed around Oakenfold's label Perfecto Records. The album employs Oakenfold's progressive trance sound and sees a return to the Goa trance sound he had helped popularise with ''Goa Mix'' (1994) and ''Perfecto Fluoro'' (1996). Similar to those albums, it also features a more eclectic array of music genres, featuring music from film soundtracks, the ethereal wave band Dead Can Dance and a remix of a Led Zeppelin song. Although the album received mixed reviews from critics, at the time of release, it became the biggest-selling DJ mix album in the United States, where it reached the Top 50 of the Top Electronic Albums chart.〔http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Paul-Oakenfold-Biography/887820CD0D81734B48256C3200095A8C〕
==Background==
With his ''Essential Mix'' instalment ''Goa Mix'' (1994), released as an album in 1995, and ''Perfecto Fluoro'' (1996), Oakenfold had helped popularise a subgenre of the emerging progressive trance genre known as Goa trance, originating from the beaches of Goa, India. Both albums received critical acclaim. In this era, he was experiencing a surge in popularity, and in June 1995, he became the first DJ to play on the main stage at the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset for 90,000 people, a performance which he considers his favourite gig.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Paul Oakenfold Interview )〕 Broadening his usage of various styles of dance music, his mix album ''Global Underground: Live in Oslo'' (1997), a double mix CD in the Global Underground series recorded live at Cosmopolite Club in Oslo, Norway, as part of the official launch of the Quart Festival, was noted for showcasing Oakenfold's eclectic taste in music at the time, as the mix combines various forms of dance music.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Paul Oakenfold – Global Underground: Live In Oslo )〕 His second instalment for the series, ''Global Underground 007: New York'' (1998), has become the best-selling album in the series, selling 150,000 copies.〔http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Paul-Oakenfold-Biography/887820CD0D81734B48256C3200095A8C〕
The two ''Global Underground'' albums were seen as particularly launching his career in the United States, and his trance music-based ''Tranceport'' (1998) was ranked at number 23 in ''Rolling Stones 2012 list of "The 30 Greatest EDM Albums Ever".〔http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/the-30-greatest-edm-albums-of-all-time-20120802/23-paul-oakenfold-tranceport-kinetic-1998-19691231〕 After his two-year residency contract with Cream expired in 1999, Oakenfold toured the United States. Such was the success of ''Global Underground 007: New York'' that, with increasing demand for British dance music in the United States, making up over two-thirds of the Global Underground label's sales, a New York office was opened in on Ninth Avenue in Manhattan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Boxed Takes Bite of Big Apple )〕 The Mekka Electronic Music Festival, otherwise known as the "electronic Lollapallooza" took place in ten cities in the US and Canada during August and September, including New York, Los Angeles, Toronto and San Francisco. The event featured Oakenfold amongst other electronic artists. Oakenfold next moved to Los Angeles to work on film soundtracks and to focus his DJing stateside.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Electronic Performers )〕
His experiences with the United States influenced the creation of his ''Perfecto Presents'' series of mix albums. Launched with ''Perfecto Presents: Travelling'' (2000), the series built on his eclectic usage of music and the albums were themed. ''Perfecto Presents: Another World'' was the second instalment in the series.
