He can make no logical argument against mine, so he resorts to attacking a stereotype. Hilarious.

You rock, nrjizer. The tracks these days may have clever effects by the dozen, but they have no soul. Give me Two Full Moons and a Trout any day.

Behold, my arse. Whatever.....

Whether you compare Tranceport to Oakey's first GU's or to MWNNN, or whether you compare it to complete gay crap like the Backstreet Boys, it still is a great CD. Great tracks, great track selection, blah blah blah blah. And for whoever said that the tracks carrying themselves is a negative - get your head outta your pompous ass! A good CD is a good CD. I don't give a shit about who made it or how it was made. If it sounds good then it sounds good - that's all I care about. I don't care whether he just used a fade in/out button, or whether he had to completely re-engineer the tracks to make them sound the way they are - the CD sounds great the way it is. If you or any professional DJ out there think that ya'll can make it sound better, go right ahead! I would LOVE to give it a listen. Till then, just get off the Oakey-bashing bandwagon and give it a rest, at least for this one, awright? You think Tranceport sucked because you can name ONE Platipus record which sounded better?!? C'mon!! This CD sounded great in '98, it sounded great in '99......and it sounds great even now. But if you're too 'cool' to say this was a good CD just because it went 'mainstream' (for that time), then it's not the CD that has problems with it, but you.

Ok, now you can go ahead and flame.

^^^ word (to TwoPlow)

Btw, make sure you get the right version of Kaleidoscope. On the Platipus website, the original mix (has a sample) is labeled as the Sunday Club mix on my best of Platipus album, and the mp3 of Kaleidoscope I have is shown on the website as the Sunday Club mix.

I dont know if its the CD or the website that's messed up, but either way, go to www.platipus.com, go to Singles > 1997, and listen to the sample of the Sunday Club mix of Kaleidoscope, that's the one I love so much.

Oh yeah, Trout rocks, I forgot about that one (man I forgot about a lot of these, all this arguing is bringing back memories). Oh yeah and don't forget Cactus.

Read what I said. As a CD, Tranceport ain't bad. Rendenvous, Words and Purple (and that first track, whatever its name was) will always have a special place in my heart. The rest of the tracks I don't really care for, but that's just my honest personal opinion. But as a DJ mix it sucks. The reason Tranceport gets on my nerves is because Oakenfold keeps getting all sorts of praise and credit for it when he hardly did anything at all. It's his name on the cover, it's his name in the ID3 tags (I used to think Oakenfold made each of those tracks, because I didn't know better, and so did a lot of people), it's him getting all the praise. He is a DJ getting praise for a compilation album. There's no flow at all. I can't just put this on, sit back and get lost in it, because all the tracks sound separate. Not that it's a big deal, I listen to artist CDs all the time, but it just annoys me that it's always Oakie getting all the praise for this CD.

I know I cite Platipus alot, but thats because I grew up listening to their stuff, and I honestly don't know many other places to find good, classic trance. But the examples still stand. And there's a lot of tunes on that label that rock any track on Tranceport, even the ones I like.
