Sub is a very one sided song i'm seeing, Either you LOVE it, or you HATE it.
I for one LOVE it. Very cool sound and defenitly something fresh with a style I havn't heard before.
Got the cd today, so i'll tell yall what i think tomorrow

Can't wait to get my hands on this one...after listening to their latest sets I have to say I look forward to this mix very much...G+D, along with Zabiela, (still) Sasha and a few others are the only ones getting off their asses to make the EDM scene worthwhile nowadays...
ok so there are tonnes of reviews to read here, and now that i've finally found the time to pick this CD up and have a listen, here's what i think:
[orange] overall, this is amazing. the premier g&d album does not disappoint, and i'm extremely excited about g&d's recent success, and their many successes in 2003 and early 2004.
the first CD is flawless, an absolute work of art. it showed me a new side of complexity in g&d's original work (like Arcadia and the Andian cover of Here Is The House) and made me relive some beautiful tracks from the 2004 thus far (like World On Fire and Forwards). 11/10, bloody brilliant!
the second CD is more impressive, but t lacks the perfection found on the first disc. Voices/Athena is the most incredible intro experience i've ever heard, and i'm ecstatic to see Elevation's "Untitled" track reworked to this state of perfection! However, tracks Sub and Switch sound very much like fillers, and lack quality. Sub murdered what could have been a moment of pure euphoria in between Don't Leave Home and No One On Earth... and Switch is dull. 10/10, excellent work, but not as good as the first CD.
overall, 10/10, i expected nothing less from gabriel & dresden.
dude, you have to be the worst reviewer /gullable noob there is, you point out that there are shitty tracks/fillers on the cd, and claim that the 2nd cd is not as good as the first, and go ahead and give it a 10/10 ....these are the words of someone that just started listening to edm, im guessing u spent the last year or so sitting on G&D's jock along with his highness Tijs... if ur gonna review something don't make it biased, or have it make some sense.
I love G&D - Lament,IMO it is the best track of the 2 CDs

Bloom Review
After listening serveral times to both Cd's I am not that enthousiast....
I think the main reason is that there are not that much NEW tracks on. Tracks like, world on fire, no one on earth, external key and lament I have heard so many times that I get a bit bored when I hear these ones.
I think the best new tune for me is Guy Gerber - Stoppage Time
Athena and Here Is The House are also very nice! But the rest....well it's ok but not Brilliant.
