Three : Hallucienda is the new mix CD from the noted New York-based DJ/producer Three. Three is involved with the critically acclaimed Second Hand Satellites (with Sean Q) and remix project Three A.M. (with Rabbit in the Moon's David Christophere). Hallucienda is Three and Hallucination Record's long-awaited first 'official' DJ-mixed CD and captures the genre-bending diversity of both Three's DJ sets and the output of tracks on his Hallucination Limited label.

The album recognizes Three and the Hallucination Records relationship with Rabbit and the Moon with the inclusion of "Timebomb," and other tracks from Sycophant Slags, Terry Francis, Q-Burns Abstract Message, Little Mike, Grumptronix, and the twisted machine funk of Reverse Commuter. In the overall

composition of the album, Three uses these tracks to give a total progressive voyage through a little progressive house with tech-house and electro tracks to give the album a techy and electro feel. He also creates a sensual vibe with his track selection while keeping the listener on the edge of their seat. The flow throughout the album is very smooth and interesting due to the mixing of different genres. The album also features rare exclusive and unreleased tracks mixed by Three himself using Pioneer's DVJ-X1, Allen and Heath's Xone:92 mixer, and Red Zone's C-Loops sample and outboard effects processors.

A few recommended tracks to listen for on the album include Reverse Commuter's Southern Change and New York To Me feat Terryn Westbrook . Another great track on the album is Terry Francis & Ricardo – Change, which is a very fluid track combining elements of deep house with a tech-house back ground. Toward the end of the album, look forward to very catchy electro tunes by Sensitize and Q-Burns Abstract Message that will hook you into listening to the album again.
