I dont seem to remember the breakdown including the breakdown of the original force of gravity:conf:
Maybe my memory is bad?:stongue:
BTW I was dissapointed with the cut down of arcadia:rolleyes: kinda ruined the energy of the first cd
Ill listen more and depth and try to give a more thoughtful review later :) |
Lately Tijs has been playing the original over his remix yes :) |

Have just bought this album and it's better than i expected!
Usually i dont like a lot of prog stuff, but this one is quite varied & it does give me a sunny feeling :D
Overall there is not one track that i dont like at all & thats great, because i hate skipping tracks

what exactly do u mean with this?? doesnt it stand out as being 'superb' or do u consider it cheesy?? imo most of the tracks are quite special and new and its defo not a tl u would find on the average trance CD... :conf:
If u dont expect to buy heaven on a disc, i would defo recommend this one :toocool: |

All ISOS did touch the idea of the 'Ibiza Feeling', but sorry this CD doesn't come even close. ISOS supposed to be a CD with only the very best ones. This is a double CD with a lot of average tracks.
With the start of CD1 I get the real ISOS flow, but slightly it slips away and with the second CD it becomes nothing more than an average trance CD.
Come on, The Force Of Gravity don't belong on ISOS, and CD2 looks indeed like a second Nyana.
If I were Tiesto, I'd choose one CD instead two and the following songs would have stayed:
Solarstone and Jes - Like a Waterfall
Coca & Villa - La Noche (OMG, this is a hell of a track).
Allure - The Loves We Lost
Gabriel and Dresden - Arcadia
Tonedepth & Sultan - Moments
LSG - Netherworld (Olivier Prime Mix) (this track is also brilliant) |
i think i agree with you. i was at first interested to hear that it would be 2 cd's...thinking that it would just be a longer session of isos which would have been great. but you are right...the first cd starts off with that isos feeling, but somewhere along the way, it loses sense of direction and kinda disappears. everyone interprets isos differently, but for me, that feeling had always been that sense of utter calm, serenity, and uncomparable beauty that comes when you see the sunrise. after all, that IS what isos is named after. others have commented that isos 4 was supposed to be a longer journey, moving from cd 1 and continuing with cd 2. there is nothing wrong with that...except for me, the journey headed off where i didn't want to go. in cd 2, it became too uptempo, too much like your average trance mix. it had moved beyond the feel of isos, and into your average night at a club with mostly average songs, and that's not what isos is about. the nature/length of having 2 cds to fill implies that the music should go somewhere, that there should be a journey, and i understand that. it would have no doubt been difficult to sustain that "isos feeling" across 2 whole cd's, which is why i too, believe he should have stayed with 1. |

I forgot that people aren't allowed to have opinions. I think you lot are the ones who need to grow up. After all, you're the ones who are resorting to personal attacks on me for telling what I think about what I've heard of this album.
:rolleyes: |

Could have saved a few pennies there, unless of course its a rip, in which case you're just sad.
There's 3 types of users on these forums, those that give a balanced real view (good or bad) of something, those that ass lick and those that go out of their way to slag something off over and over again (the opposite of the ass-lickers). Such negative opposites include UVM, sandstorm03 and it seems, the likes of bluey here, who like to call everyone else the ass-lickers, regardless of whether they are, or just people that happen to really like the album.
I haven't heard it yet myself, but will check it out soon :)

well said.
My take on the album: i dont like like 3 tracks on the CD (1 on CD1 and 2 on CD2). But like said before it doesnt touch ISOS 2. Doesnt have the same feeling to it. And like said before i also would have liked a 1CD release better. Keep the first 25 - 30 min from CD1 and add the very good tracks from cd2 (mostly in the beginning) and then end the cd with a couple more banging tracks like allure and maybe some other. The flow would have been much better and it would have reached or come close to the feeling the previous isos created.
That said i still like this release. Way better then our average trance CD. |

Averageness is not defined by tracklist (for me), but by the mood of the CD. Every DJ can put some tracks mixed on a CD. Nowadays with current technique it's not special anymore to bring a perfect mixed complilation. OK, some CDs are special by the perfect mixing, but agree with me, the transactions of Tiesto are not great.
CDs like ASOT 2005 are in my point of view just CDs that show what trance songs are currently pretty hot and therefore have nothing special.
ISOS 4 does the same, except for the start of CD1, which is really brilliant! The rest is just, for me, a tracklist that creates no special mood.
This CD is not ment to be an average trance CD, but it's purpose is to create a 'Ibiza, sunrise feeling'. And it didn't succeed here! |

my take.
cd1 starts off really nicely but around the middle and towards the end it slips away.
cd2 should never have been made at all.
unless you are a hardcore Tiesto fan, i wouldn't bother.
CD1 - 6/10
CD2 - 1.5/10 |

and for the people trashing UWM and sandstorm, see how long they've been on TA discussing tracks and then look at how long you've been discussing trance on these boards. when it comes to my limited amount of $$$, i'd like to hear all opinions, positive or negative so that i make a wise purchase :toothless
though i dont agree at all with the kinds of people who flame you based on what you listen to; that ain't right. :rolleyes: |

you're right, too many cds nowadays have a brilliant tracklist but the mood is mostly missing. But imo asot 2005 and isos 4 create a mood. I bet armin and tiesto haven't just put various current hot tracks on the cd.. they had something in mind and when I hear asot 2005 or isos 4 it proves me.. okay.. nobody has compared asot, there was no need.. it was mostly like asot 2004 or the weekly broadcast.. but with isos 4 it's different, everyone compares it with the previous ones. imo it creates a mood, but it's far from the mood which isos 1-3 have created. nevertheless, it's a good cd.. he should have just named it different.. not nyana 2, it's not nyana.. nyana wasn't so progressive.. |

Yes I'm a fool for not having heard every single track on the CD before I downloaded it :rolleyes:. I was interested in hearing what it was like hence why I downloaded it and din't buy it because I would be a fool to just randomly buy something by a DJ I dislike, apparantly to you though I have to know every track on the CD and then if I still listen to it I'm a "fool". How is a rip sad exactly? It allows me to make a decision and not waste my money if the album sucks, I support the artists I enjoy thanks. To be honest I downloaded the album for a clean version of Junkie XLs mix of UR and not much else, thank god.
I believe mine was a real review considering I posted my thoughts about it, what else would you consider that? My comments were obviously directed towards one person but since they obviously hit a nerve with you maybe it says something about you, and not about me ;) |
