i had to go back 2 pages to realise that these were artists that you like! glad to hear it cause i love alot of these guys.

this CD is horrible imo, not really a single decent song.

a couple that come to mind are also
Tonedepth
G-Pal
Jaytech
Central Rush
Bedrock
Charlie May

im also tempted to add Extrawelt, though not pure prog really.

Originally posted by SMC It's impressive hearing how so many tracks from different artists are mixed together to a single sound with the same mood over the whole cd.

Thats not that diffucult if almost all the tracks have the same fucking bassline though

Shouldn't boredom lead to threads?

Anyways, this entire compilation is too trancey for me. I'd much prefer the darker, pounding, melancholy beats and melodies. Thick basslines, and an all around forlorn feel, that's what I was looking for. I guess I shouldn't have expected that from the tracklist, ah well. The mixing is respectable, but it's just not my thing. I'm sure die hard Markus fans will be creaming themselves over it.

6.5/10

Has the release date been finalized?

Had a listen to the promo this morning and was utterly unimpressed, though the compilation wasn't bad either. As Demoted already said, it's a bit more trancey than I'd expect from Markus, however I think that's probably more suited to an "Ibiza" album than the dark and brooding prog, though who's to say.

In the end, I don't think this is an awful album by any means, it's just average, and compounded with the fact that it isn't really the style of EDM that I enjoy anymore, I was just left feeling like I wanted more. At the end of the day, I guess even though I knew it wasn't going to mesh with me stylistically, I was hoping Markus' programming and track selection would somehow pull me in. It didn't.

5/10
