Live & Remastered

Live & Remastered is a box set released by the Ministry of Sound in 2011. It was released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Ministry of Sound (the 20:20 campaign), following the Ministry of Sound's foundation in 1991.^[1]

The box set contains five discs, each an "iconic" DJ set performed live at the Ministry of Sound in the first half of its life. The DJ sets are by Larry Levan, David Morales, Todd Terry, Kenny Carpenter and Justin Berkmann. The packaging is in a "flightcase" box, with all the CDs themselves in "record sleeves". The discs themselves are also made to look like actul vinyl LPs.^[2]

On 13 September 2011, a "megamix" of songs from the album was uploaded onto by Ministry of Sound.^[3] Factmag ran a competition in which free copies were given away.^[4]

The album was well received. Time Out New York were positive in their review.^[5]
