for me: YES for sure!

He made MASTERPIECES. SHANE 'c'est musique' (Armin Van Buuren remix) and ARIA 'dido' (Armin Van Buuren remix) are absolutely AMAZING tracks. For me it is PURE trance music. His recent prod/remixes sounds pretty poor next to those old mixes.

what's your opinion of the 'old' armin and the 'new' armin?

For me Armin has always been a very consistent DJ and producer. His best work is definately:-

Armin - Blue Fear
Shane - C'est Musique (Armin van Buurens rising star mix)
Shane - too late to turn (Armin instrumental mix)
Solar Stone - Seven cities (Armin van Buuren remix)
Iio - Rapture (Armin van Buuren remix)

Production wise, he did seem to put more time into his earlier productions...but as a DJ, he keeps getting better and better! His tunes are still good today but don't meet up to his mixes of tunes like "Dido".

Personally,,, I don't see any problems with Armin newer productions. All of his producitons in 2002 were consistant. And for those of you that think quality has gone down,,, this might be because the guy is so busy as a DJ. It must be hard to keep up with his schedule and also have time left for produciton.

Pal one recommendation
IF you can..listen to ASOT 83
ARMIN=GOD
Production wise....I guess his previous years productions are dope ..but the one's from last year werent a disappointment by any measure =))
