Miika Kuisma - Sententia (New album preview)

Tracklist:

- Dimensional Shift
- Where Am I
- Trying My New Wings
- Without My Past
- Cloud Surfing
- It's a New Day
- One Morning By The Riverside
- Take Another Look (Miika's Lost Method Mix)
- Till The Dawn (ft. Cristal Snow)
- One Step Behind the Mankind
- Break Away (ft. Karen Ires)
- Arrival
- Time To Fade

Samples here

Most of tunes that feature on this album are already known by Kuisma fans. Obviously noticable is that Miika's sound evolved compared to Inwardgaze, more towards melodic proggier trance and less psy influences than his previous album, which is a bit regrettable (tracks as Twisted were ace). But according to the samples he still hasn't lost his touch when it comes to melodies. Looking forward

sounds sweet. finally some good melodic trance

Samples sounds very good. Seems to be good follow-up for Inwardgaze.

thank you, Miika You originally had the idea for making 12 tracks, each a minute longer than the previous if I remember. Any reasons for it not working out, apart from it being such a rigid foundation to work with?

What can I say.. it just didn't work out. That's all to it. And maybe it's bad idea to decide track lengths first instead of making the music first?

Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. It's not the easiest album to get inside to, give it some time to grow

trust me mate, i've been into everything i've heard so far. It's pretty brilliant & your sound has evolved nicely

As for that idea, I can only imagine just how hard it would be to do something along those lines, but the idea itself is great ,perhaps one day someone will be able to prove us all wrong but it's gonna take a lot of patience!

Sounds great. Good that someone is still putting effort in trance among the masses of soulless p00p these days.

Just bought the album today. It's so damn good!!
I first heard your music from GU30, and I was excited to see you released an album. Keep up the amazing work

Sounds good, might have to get myself this one. Been looking for good melodic trance..this fits the bill. Good variety of epic, prog and ambient in there. Great job!

I got the album as promo-cd few days ago and all I can say: It's a must have for all epic trance lovers. Really nice and very well produced.

Quite a good effort from Mr Kuisma as expected.

The only minor let down is that I think there are a bit too many down tempo chill out tracks. Also, 'One Step Behind the Mankind' which happens to be my favourite track gets album edited
Still a solid album though.

Im loving Cloud Surfing, music fits the title very aptly

"One Morning By The Riverside"

Easily the best track on the album.

My first reaction- heard it on GU: Paris, and was drawn in instantly.

Very much looking forward to this album as a whole, though...
