Yeah, would have loved my alltime fav to be on it!

And what about the (overrated) Push - Universal Nation...

UN sounds too dated.

Strange World/The Legacy/Till We Meet Again would be better options IMO.

I'm not missing anything. I'm simply clarifying what Sykonee meant.

Well thanks pal.

Originally posted by trancedanne i havent heard that tune but alot of tunes you mention are not the ones you associate with asot at all so if i were armin i would choose those you do associate with asot so the majority of the fans would be happy. Or you could go with the typicall classics such as gouryella, rank 1, armin, tiesto etc as i think it will be.

i think a beat pusher tune was played on asot trance before. either murto or rokki, rokki is pretty fuckin good though, you should check it outif you havent

The tracklist may be predictable, but to be honest, it's better than I had expected.

I will more than likely be picking this up even if that is the final confirmed tracklist, as there are a decent enough number of tunes on it that I have really loved in the past to make it worth my cash.

Originally posted by skip lol, i have almost all of those track in full lenght on cd already, so i won't be buying this. but i can't really say it's a bad compliation though as i've bought most of these and still like them very much. sure, most of them are overplayed as hell, but they're classics, so wtf would you expect. (oh and maybe armin should release a compilation which has more forgotten "classics" as well, like "beat pusher - rokki", which Rebel9 mentioned. it would probably sell well because armin compiled it and it would maybe introduce some "new" old tunes to people. but i doubt this will ever happen and i'll probably never get rokki on cd in full lenght! (i fucking love that tune))

thats a good idea, they should release a forgotten classics 4cd instead of classics that everyone has heard (or at least everyone listening since 99-01) or whatever years the cd takes tracks from. i dont like the tracklist of this cd too much. besides how are you goin to leave out songs like

jose amnesia - the eternal/last sunset in ibiza
airwave - escape from nowhere or some other old ones
old fire and ice. i guess you cant get everything in there, but some of the stuff doenst belong on there, g and d - arcadia, solid globe - sahara, im not knocking the tracks but are they really classics, ffs, they arent even that old.

Originally posted by RebeL9 lucky me I got it on 12". but i hope it gets released on cd one day. It sure is a belter ^^

good record, a and b are awesome =)

Rapidfire: And? All those ferry tracks are wicked. He did A LOT for the trance scene so I dont see your point in this at all. You would really prefer hearing the gabriel and dresdren remix of beautiful things over the gouryella tracks or out of the blue?


I do agree with the fact that the whole 4 cd's is just completely over done tracks. We all have heard this before so its pointless to buy his shit really.

But i guess for all the new fans its definately a good thing. So they can see how trance has been garbage for the past 3+ years compared to some of those older tracks

ive never heard beatpusher - rokki, where can i get it? been searchin here and there for months and cant find it anywhere..

I picked this up just to have since there are a lot of old classic unmixed that I love and bring back so many memories...

Even if we go on blindingly obvious trance classics that have been ommited:

1998
Caf� del Mar
Xpander
ANY Paul Van Dyk
ANY BT
ANY Chicane
ANY Tilt

...and so forth, cutting out all the acts which are two old-skool or unknown for the ASOT crowds, can you honestly say we should have eight tracks of FC trademark supersaws in place of any mention of that list above?

I think we've had quite enough of '98 & Cafe Del Mar releases as it is, though...

Well I've had quite enough of about 70% of this album, but if you're going to make the argument of "It's good for getting all the classics unmixed" then you'd want Caf� del Mar and 1998 on there.

EDIT: After all, you can get most of the Ferry Corsten classics unmixed on these:

To each his own.

Actually I'm glad there are no PvD tracks on it. Overall the tracklist is acceptable. And I agree we're already sick of 1998 & caf� del mar. You can always moan about the tracklist, there are just too many. He could easily make another 4CD.

I would also like tracks as

Schiller - Das Glockenspiel (Humate Remix)
Jam & Spoon - Odyssey To Anyoona
Kamaya Painters - Far From Over (Oliver Lieb Mix)
Systematic Parts - Deja Vu
Bypass - Cyberia
Some Push & Airwave tracks...

appear on it. But you can go on endlessly like this. This CD is good as it is, maybe we can hope for a second release in the future.

Who will be selling this CD?

Wanna get it, in the UK?

How can they release such a CD without any Lange track

Jus 1 of this beauties:

Lange - I Believe
Lange - Follow Me
Rhythm Of Life - You Put Me In Heaven (Lange Mix)
Lost Witness - Happiness Happening (Lange Mix)
Lost Witness - Red Sun Rising (Lange Mix)
Atlantis Vs. Avater - Fiji (Lange Mix)

+ many more!!!

THis compi is way to dutch, remember in 1999 50% of the bombs came from England!!!

Cant take this compilation serious!!!

I can't stand "I Believe". One of the most annoying and unlistenable songs I've ever heard.

Wher is BT - Mercury And Solace the best track ever

I'm gonna buy this I think. I have been into trance since around 1998 yet have only just starting DJing this summer and as a result I have most of the tracks there on mix CD however I dont have the full length versions, in which case this is a good album.

'gabriel & dresden - arcadia'

i thought that's only a year or two old or something...?
how can it be classic already?
