Renaissance presents The Masters Series, Volume 4: Revelation (Nick Warren's disc) (Renaissance, 2001)
You can't discuss progressive house without mentioning renaissance, and Nick Warren brought the darkness on Volume 4 of the Masters Series. Yes, the centerpiece of the mix is the Deep Dish remix of Iio's "Rapture", but the seven tracks leading up to it is a relentless chorus of drums that culminates with "Dirty". KEY DARK TRACKS: Powder Productions' remix of Paul Mac's "The Sound of Breaking Up", Dirty "Dirty", Deep Funk Project vs. Austin Leeds "Sub RItual".

Global Underground NuBreed 006: Satoshi Tomiie (Global Underground, 2002)
My choice from the GU catalog has to be Satoshi's mix. He somehow is able to work in so many of the big dark prog tracks of the era (Lexicon Avenue's ubiquitous "From Dusk Til Dawn", Creamer & K's remix of Kosheen's massive "Hungry", Tijuana's Bedrock gold "Groove Is In the Air") and yet manages to pull it off without it sounding like a Ministry of Sound compilation. I probably just like the way he manages to end disc one with Kings of Tomorrow's "I Want You (For Myself)". Such a diva, Satoshi. KEY DARK TRACKS: Stephane K "Numb", Kats & Styles "You're My Everything", all the big ones already mentioned.
