I agree that his first album Movin Melodies was commercial, and was nothing more than a money making scam. However his next album Two Worlds has a lot more skill in it, and i don't think is too commercial (apart from Fields of Love). I think the second CD of that album is terrific...just great chilled trance.

Agreed on the second CD point...I don't see how anyone can accuse him of being a wholesale sell-out, because people only into the music to make money do not, not, not add a chilled CD as a bonus disc to their new album, there's just not enough of a demand by mainstream audiences for that style.

Movin' Melodies was his most commercial album, there's no doubt about it, but I still enjoyed some of the tracks, particularly Don't Stop.

I think people who jump all over ATB are the same people who usually jump all over *anything* that's commercial. I listen to his stuff, and I enjoy it. He's no Sasha, but then who is?

well, once again I got introduced to electronica by tracks like his, but I think he's mostly a cheese producer. used to love "9pm" and "don't stop" now I just feel it's comercial.. something I won't listen to.

But he's not the worst. He puts some chilled ambient that I like to some of his track, and I think that with some more producting skills he could be sort of a new chicane.. but most of it is just too cheesy. He should focus more in the chillout stuff, as he seems to do it better.

and let's not forget.. the guitar sound in the first track, that's ok. but that similar guitar sound in so many tracks of his.. err.. like darude.. every track of him takes samples of sandstorm.

one track of him that I kinda like.. "my dream". yet cheesy.

I love Killer 2000..

And when 9PM Till I Come came out a few years ago before I knew any other Trance I thought it was great.

I also really liek the Airplay Mix of Let U Go..nice vocals.

I'm not sure if ATB is putting out trance anymore, but his latest double CD is cool to lounge with a girl. It's really relaxing... dreamy vocals...

Yeah I think he is switching his style from the more poppy cancun clubtracks to a "dreamscape" I read that somewhere. Also, has anyone heard of a song by ATB called "Utw�r 4" or did I just get a mislabeld ID3?

it's ok

as long as thereis something to talk about it is ok to revive a dead thread

9pm til i come was quite good, i liked it when it came out, but when i heard dont stop, i thought i was listening to a remix of 9pm. dont stop was 90% the same as 9pm!!! plagarism is really bad

His second CD in 2 worlds is quite good,I mean the one with the relaxing ambient tunes.

...because he uses the same synth in all his songs. Or maybe its just me....
