Reflections sucked... plain and simple. If it does get grammy, perhaps it will help me push it on ebay or something - coz' I need to get rid of that suckka.
Oh, another thing - look how unfair the world is:
PvD - no formal musical education, manages to get nominated for award for album.
BT - playing music since 2, wrote number of scores, crazy ass-mofo and father of many "trancey" trends that get borrowed left and right, a righteous mofo... but no award! Well, it could be because "emotional technology" blew bigger balls than Michael Jackson will be blowing soon, nonetheless... Which further goes to show that education and tallent don't necessarily mean you'll be recognized.
strange..:clown: |
Yeah...
I do think BT deserves more credit... But I don't htink education should have anything to do with it... Besides... PVD was half-way through a law degree but pulled out and took the risk of DJing for a living....
BT does Eurodance now...
Curses upon him... |

I love Reflections too.
Best drink coaster I've ever had, and doubles as a mighty fine frisbee. :p
I don't think Reflections was a commercial album, but more of a musical experiment that blew up the laboratory in a comical yet painful way.
Points for trying something different, but sadly it turned out rather substandard in my opinion. None of the experiments really turned out right, but if you picked it up and had never heard of Paul van Dyk, it may well be a good album, just we were expecting a killer tech-trance album more suiting his style. |

Why are you picking on PvD when you have the other even less talentless pop stars nominated on the other awards to pick on?
Personally I enjoyed Reflections. I would still enjoy it if PvD hasn't been incessantly hammering it's tracks for 2 years. Paul did everything but songwrite the lyrics to the album. Not even Sasha, and definitely not Tiesto can say that about their albums. |
