I quite enjoy Hubertus.  It's not a far stretch from early FAX
house/trance.  As far as house goes, it's pretty good; but of course,
you have to like house.  I find it a fun release and good for the car.

Yup, agree with you there.  But for sheer "worstness", I still pick
Supergroup.  If I had to say more, I'd say Kooler, Putney 2, NOL, and
the Elektros; but then that's more a "top-5 worst list".

Ah, must be a jazzist thing.

I agree with Greg, DADA is a pretty good release.  See my review on
2350.org.

Boring, but not "the worst", no?  I don't like MFUM but I can easily
bear listening to it in the background.

Yes!  UVOII is a close second for worst ever, even though some of the
music isn't _too_ bad.

Lots of more mainstream house/techno haters on the list, eh?  As far as
that fare goes, it's not too bad.
