A valiant effort, but these people neither want nor have ever wanted to listen to trance. |
We're just not as cool as you. |

Will always be my favorite trance CD but I have to agree that Oakey got too much fame and credit over a compilation. However, Oakenfold was the perfect introduction to trance for me.

Same here, who cares if it was all the big tracks, they were big for a reason, it was what trance sounded like in 1998, and those were the most defining tunes. |
Completely agreed.
Damn, it seems here in TA one cannot like anything that becomes mainstream because it's a sin. This CD rocked and will continue to rock in the future. It is a classic because it shows us what trance represented back then, what it sounded like and how it was mixed. |

Rendenvous, Purple, and Words are the only good tracks. The first track and Greece are alright. The rest are decent at best, and boring when compared to real trance. |

Who exactly is he antagonizing? The artists who will never read what he typed? What? |

Why? Because I am stating my honest opinion? Shall I spell it out for you?
1) Time - A cool track with spacey synths. Thumbs up
2) Greece 2000 - A neat tune, good memorable hook. Approved.
3) Rendenvous - Awesome, I love that ing synth. Not a lot else can be said. Thumbs up
4) Purple - Also awesome, so trippy and spacey. Tunes like this are why I like the 98/99 era. Thumbs up
5) Someone - Not very exciting to me. The hook kind of gets on my nerves, the vocals are kind of cool. I prefer Libra feat. Taylor - Calling Your Name.
6) El Nino - Not very exciting either. Not terrible, but just nothing special about it, besides the fact that a lot of people are nostalgic about it.
7) Cafe Del Mar - Same goes here. Everyone just loves that reverb'ed main line that's been beaten to death, but once again it's really doesn't stand out to me.
8) 1998 - Actually on a second listen it's growing on me, it's simple and to the point with a good rhythm. Approved.
9) Words - Classic. Another of the few gems that made this era of Trance worth listening to. No dumb breakdowns that bring the music to a crawl, or other bull like that. Long, repetitive, driving beat, dark and trippy synths. Big Thumbs Up.
10) Gamemaster - It's the classic anthem, and it gets Nostalgia points at least. But beyond that, it's just another anthem to me.
11) Enervate - Boring.
So, out of 11 tracks, there are 4 I really like, and two that I think are neat. That's a 55% approval rate. The rest I am indifferent to, except for Enervate which bores me to tears - so is it any suprise that I find them boring when compared to the classic trance that I grew up on?
Could I possibly make this any clearer for you? Should I even be wasting my time trying to defend my ing personal opinion? |
