i agree partly, i also think his recent productions are not the quality we have seen from him before. See me there was absolutly awesome! But his latest, are fine, nothing more...

I disagree

Apart from the jurgen stuff, i only like wilderness (Instrumental mix) out of all of his jurgen project

But his stuff wit jono grant is great, I sitll think he is very strong!

about all i've heard of his is Darren Tate & Mike Koglin-waiting, Jurgen Vries - The Theme, and DT8 - Destination, and i love those songs.

i actually liked those collaborations he did with mike koglin and jono grant, but his solo stuff, like dt8 - destination or darren tate - prayer for a god and jurgen vries stuff, i thought all those were horrible. and orion elevation wasnt good either. i liked his style back in like 2000 or whenver he came out with new world ep =)

Originally posted by hadi ****** Does anyone else beside me think his music has gone to shit? I liked orion - rush, dream of me, eternity and see me here, but all his new just just fuckin sucks. does anyone else think that too? dont come flaming in here either just because you like him.

he never went to shit because he always was shit

What about:

Darren Tate vs Jono Grant - Nocturnal Creatures
Darren Tate vs Blue Amazon - No Other Love

Both quality tunes. "Prayer For A God" wasn't very impressive though.

Then again, Florida is really the state of quality trance producers, I mean there's ..... um.......... wait............... oh yeah, nobody, even Markus only goes there for the weather and cos arturo loves him so.

If you don't like his stuff fine, doesn't mean he's shit, just means that you don't like him.

I'm a fan of Nocturnal Creatures. I haven't listened to a lot of his music, but the demo vinyls I hear sound like his recent works are well produced uplifting tracks, but they lack that something extra that pushes a great uplifting tune over the edge.

Not really, it's like how Dirt Devils is the cheese alias of Above and Beyond, Jurgen Vries is the same for Darren Tate...

Go hear Orion - Elevation, then you'll realise he hasn't changed at all.

True all of his recent works are shit, except for those two Graceland EPs. Those are awesome.

His work HAS gone to shit, downhill at least for me...
Orion - See Me Here is one of the best trance tracks I've ever heard, the original and beachcomber dub. Orion - Eternity was off the hook... and so were his excellent remixes of...

Ayumi Hamasaki - Audience (Darren Tate Instrumental Mix)
Work in Progress - Won't Let you Down (Darren Tate Remix)

But lately, I really have not been digging Destination, Prayer for a God, Nocturnal Creatures, etc etc. They don't have the freshness and originality his older productions had.
