As far as Shivers is concerned and the review it got, I'm with swisstoni on this one, BBC is one of many and personally their expertise in EDM is as good as the shit they're playing nowadays, gush of crap.
Anyway if I understand correctly the album's background, Armin has a lot of remixes ready, and from there it can go in any direction, see he has something he can remix anyway he wants and it's his own either way you take it. I believe it's probably a business decision.
I like 2 songs very much Zocalo and Empty State, absolutely great.
Shivers is 50-50 with anyone you ask, either like it or you don't, and same goes for Serenity. Hymne is pretty good too, other vocal tracks like Gold Digger, Who Is Waching, Gypsy, Wall Of Sound are all that will probably see remix. And Control Freak and Bounce Back are really the old Armin sound. See it might not all be trance, but Armin has built himself a ground where he can play with the sounds, without being bothered wether someone will like it or not, because let's face it, even with all you guys spitting on it, there'll be a lot of people there that like the album, and when he's done remixing it, it'll slowly get into TA people too, so he'll catch 2 flies with 1 swing. You just got to see the big picture.
He does the music because he likes it, not you, and in my book that's staying true to yourself, which is exactly the opposite than what people have been accusing him, ie. playing music for the people etc. like some other DJs are doing. So he's doing just fine, and I think Shivers will too, and TA will still be where it is. |
come on even you armin worshippers must admit that this album is very weak considering that the guy actually got real talents.
