For all those out there who hate the album, at least respect the album as testament to the power of a DJ. I mean, he gotten Hunter S. Friggin Thompson on the CD! What other artist for any genre of music can you recall that has the ability to recruit such a diverse "cast" for an album. If anything we should be raving because I think that as soon as his album gets a little more air time, people may seek out not only Oaky's other music, but also other DJs and maybe Trance will start to break out of it's little club shell. I know that Paul Oakenfold was the first real Trance DJ I ever listened too, and really got me into the music.
Personally, I think this album is going to create a new era of trance/techno music. It may not be typical Oaky, but it's still good.
Keep it alive!
