Intervesting, some people cries about why this is not full melodica/uplifting trance, some people cries about why it's not full elctro trance.

Maybe he was trying to appease both....

Ferry Corsten is my GOD, it's still a rocking CD but I wanted more pumping tracks!

My fav tracks:

Are You Ready
Fire
L.E.F. -> CHOON
Cubikated
Galaxia
Watch Out
Junk
I Love You

well a good point was made before, everyone knew this was going to be an electro-tinged album and was named LEF. And yet people still complained cos there wasn't enough melodic uplifting. I'm with Munchy, I'd expect full on pumping loud electronic ferocius electro inspired trance, not the other way around.

When I see this in stores I'm gonna grab it, definitely some hot tracks on it and I like the style, a good change from the current crop of trance.

BTW, people in America becareful ig you buy the Japanese version! I got my Japaense version in mail on Saturday, but I couldn't play the bonus DVD on DVd player or my PC. So be sure that ur DVD player can play the Japanese or every region DVDs.

i listened to it on the way to work today and i have to say i would have preferred more electro type tracks. i really liked are you ready and LEF.

some of the other tracks were nowhere near as good and i was actually dissapointed when i heard a 'cheesy' type tune.


Posted by Grrrrr on Jun-05-2006 12:29:

I'm surprised by the lack of love for '2) Are you ready', it's definately one of my faves on the album

beautiful is now growing on me

buy the japanese version for Insolation (flashover mix) that's the best thing on offer here, one of my favourites from OOTB album tastefully turned into a 4/4 tune

I just bought my copy from Holland. Only problem I had with this CD was that stupid Prison Break Theme... I HATE it so I had to get the Euro version at least.

Exactly. I agree on both accounts although Are You Ready is cool, its real simple and I feel it as average. Some of those G+D type tunes on there were kinda disappointing. Gotta love POSSESSION!!

I love how every thread in this forum turns into a flamewar...some people like shit you don't like. Get the fuck over it, it's not the end of the world.

The end of June. Look on Amazon to see what date. I'm too lazy.

Check that thread, you can find all information about the L.E.F album, release dates, bonus tracks, links to reviews, shops etc. in that one!

i am not a big fan of this cd.the style is very electro, which i like but i don't know there is just something about the cd that doesn't win me


Posted by AndreaCKY772 on Jun-09-2006 18:52:

yes i've heard samples of all the tracks the other day and i don't know if i'll purchase it...most likely i'll buy the singles or something

all the same i still like ferry

Beautiful is the only track that stands out, nicely done.

Freefalling, man that track could have been so good if he worked on it more, everything was just right until the break and the continuation from there.

Everything else did not overwhelm me at all. Bit dissapointed.

The ignorance in this thread is mindblowing. Why are you people still clinging to the past? Ferry's days of uplifting are over. He has been steadily progressing towards a more electro/80's influenced sound, why are you still bringing this up?

This an artist album, an expression of what Ferry likes, not what you may like. This album is NOT catered towards the forum elitists who think they know every and everything about trance. Fact is, nobody cares much about forum goers because they represent a very small minority of the 'market'.

I really liked this album, production is superb. Granted there are some 'filler' tracks here and there and perhaps a little too much vocals but there are some exceptional tracks as well. I quite dig the new take on Galaxia, just shows to prove that Ferry is still one of the pioneers of uplifting trance.

I like uplifting myself, but open yourself up a little bit, to a wider range of music, especially people like KAKAAKlol who diss anything that isn't your generic everyday cookie cutter trance. If you don't dig his new style, simply don't listen to it, how hard can that be? Instead of wasting your time bashing the fact there's no uplifting tunes on the album, why not focus some of that energy towards something else?

Let's not forget people, this is not a 'live set', this is an album, meant to be listened to at home, so why would you expect 80 mins of 'banging' tunes? Show me one artist album that actually is.

Listened to the whole thing with my brother in his car on the way to Circuit City the other day, and I still say this is one of the best albums of the year.


and listen to 8Wonders ^

It would be nice to get an album that's not just a sampler of tunes the artist is going to sell us on vinyl over the span of the next 2 years.

Have you even heard L.E.F.?

Fair enough, but I did comment on the 'feel' of that album somewhere in the middle of my post. DB's album and this are pretty much night and day though.

I don't understand where you are going with that statement. So the fact the CD is atleast 85% material you've never heard bares no importance? What does him releasing consequent singles (which is absolutely a normal thing to do) of the album a bad thing for you?

50 cent makes an album, he releases a few singles to promote the album, album is released, he releases a few more singles, normal, yeah?
