hmmm.. Get Magik 1-7 and the 3 ISOS... good way to start

Majik 1-7, seven CD's? Where could I get these, what are the names of the albems? Same thing for 3ISOS.

So i'm still waiting for someone to post some classic trance. I guess i'll start it off then:


Union Jack - There Will Be No Armageddon
Art Of Trance - Wildlife On One
Sven Vath - Accident In Paradise
Platipus Archive Vol. 1-8
Psychotrance 2000-2004 (not old but stays true to classic trance, surprisingly)
Psychotrance Vol. 1-5
Sven Vath - In The Mix: Sound Of the First Season

Now you go.

^^^ Wow, that's a really good list. Some good memorable tunes in there. In fact...most of them.

I'm keeping this list for myself

dance 2 trance - freefall (club mix)
the volunteers - sun down this record is the best ever trance tune ive ever heard. so hypnotic and just amazingly ahead of its time(made in 1992) its just makes you pause and pulls you into its vortex of mystique like no other.
Young American Primitive - YAP (Angels Hand)
Illuminatus - Hope (Oliver Lieb Remix)
