A nice chillout cd for the most part. I was kinda hoping the dark cd would be harder, darker trance but it only stands for the dark blue cd. Personally, I was hoping to hear some tracks that maybe I never heard of before but it wont happen on this cd. Just like the title says, it is pretty much Armins favorite tracks from his ASOT show. A nice cd though. Good for driving out on a nice sunny day or chillin at home and you want some calm relaxing tunes.

8/10

think this is the first thread about the cd ?


anyway get 76:14 in?

Nah, that cd should come in the mail by atleast Friday. Pretty stoked cuz I need a good ambient chillout cd.

One thing I have to say about Armin is that atleast he sticks true to trance. And by that I mean by playing it. I mean, look at all the other djs who claim they spin trance but when you see them spin live they throw in a lot of tech too. Armin is mainly trance and you gotta respect him for that.

gets too monotone like. Thats his downfall. And he still hasnt realized that alternating tracks like tilt 12, with energetic/techy tracks does NOT work.(im not only talking about the cd)

It seems like he does not understand the word F-L-O-W

As far as flow is concerned I may have to agree. Did seem like the tracks he was playing when I saw him were kinda thrown around a bit. And yes some of it seems a bit repetitive, but its trance none the less. I went that night to listen to pure 100% trance and that is what I got so I have to be happy. Gotta say Perry's flow was pretty amazing though. He is gonna be a dj to watch out for.

Well, I haven't receive my copy yet, hopefully it gets here before friday. As soon as I hear it, I shall comment.

You have to give it to Armin though, he sticks to his guns when it comes to playing pure trance. Not alway my thing but Armin is a trance dj/producer

he's still capable of doing much MUCH better.

Personally i LOVE ASOT 2005.

Just so everyone knows, the last 2 times Armin's played in TO
he's been harder than ANY other time i've seen him.

Still mostly trance, but not by much. A lot of dark progressive
and techno to go along with the regular trance beuaties.

To be honest i prefer the way he's played the last 2 times he's been here - i LOVE trance and always will, but for 5 hrs it can be tiresome.
The fact that he plays several genres in a set make them that much better.

To me, he can do no wrong
