What do you guys think of Ferry's remix of Rank 1 - Awakening?

Just wanted to know what everyone think of Ferry Corsten's Remix of Rank 1 - Awakening?

I think this is one of the most beautiful pieces of work I've ever heard. It's been a while and I still can't stop listening to it. Just pure nirvana.

I think it's a great song. One of the better trance songs to come out of Ferry in the past year or so IMO.

what tracks has he made that were progressive?

It's just that he doesn't pump out lots of tracks anymore, he's more focused on DJ'ing and his fiancee and stuff...

What could Ferry possibly have made that's PROGRESSIVE???Anyways,Ferry's remix of "Awakening" really rescues a boring original.The Benicio remix is even worse.Is it just me,or does "Awakening" sound somewhat like a copy of the "Superstring" remix they did?

I agree, I nevered really liked the original so I almost didn't give this one a chance. But saw Ferry doing a remix and gave it a shot and instantly fell in love with it.

Like speedracer_mec said, it's really dreamy and uplifting. Just lovin' it. Ferry really worked his magic here.

ummm

i consider ...punk as progressive trance.....he goes back into his roots of melodic uplifting with the remix of awakening..

DUDE it's called "Electronic" and you can hear the different between club track (I inculde all types) and Electronica...

are we talkiing about paul van dyk or ferry corsten.....

Punk is just like a better Dance Valley 2001, and when he made Dance Valley, noone said he was going progressive. (even though that's not even progressive.)

oh well, like it matters.

even being the huge Ferry fan i am, I have to say I liked the original Awakening better though...

I love this track. Since Elevate, Solstice and Exhale, and excepted Connected with Ayu, I was a bit disappointed by his works and sets in 2001... I hope this announces the coming back of this great Ferry Corsten I like so much!

I like it a lot. Best mix of Awakening, which I think is not a patch on Airwave.

I don't think Dance Valley is anything like Punk, Punk is darker where Dance Valley is trademark System F synths with funky breakbeats and a nice bit of sub bass. I liked it!

Posted by davinox on Apr-18-2002 22:09:

punk has a nice breakbeat, and the synths are stronger and better.

dance valley was good, punk is better.

Posted by speedracer_mec on Apr-18-2002 22:14:

umm

i honestly thought dance valley was cheesy...IMO

Posted by Rakoon on Apr-18-2002 22:19:

Yeah this one is really awesome. Very great chillout (kinda) track. I prefer this over the original mix.

Posted by UWM on Apr-18-2002 22:52:

This remix is definitely my favorite of Awakening.

Also, IMO, Dance Valley is crap, Punk is good (esp. Kid Vicious Remix)

thumbs up from me

This version saves the entire track IMO...

Posted by Shoes on Apr-19-2002 14:32:

I like it, but I think I prefer the Cosmic Gate remix. Maybe I haven't given Ferry's track a good listen.

Posted by Thierry on Apr-19-2002 14:37:

Very nice and chilled out. Good tune for near the end of the party.

Posted by John on Apr-19-2002 15:21:

Posted by DennisF on Apr-19-2002 15:54:

Posted by nils on Apr-19-2002 15:59:
