No. Orkidea and Nicholas Bennison both had far better albums.

Late 2007, but otherwise, yes. :)

This is a serious question, not a bash on mainstream trance. Why is it that trance artists do such a job when it comes to albums?

Psy-trance and Goa artists are brilliant at it. I rarely buy singles in these genres, but for club trance I'm yet to hear a really solid album besides Mirco de Govia's work.


Chicane, BT, Paul Van Dyk and LSG are all big name trance producers who have put out great LPs in the past.

Some that haven't already been mentioned:

Absolute - Horizons
Ferry Tayle - Carnet De Vol (such an an underrated album that definitely deserves more exposure)
Jaytech - Everything is OK

Not exclusively, but then Mirco De Govia's albums are at least as much breaks or downtempo as they are trance, overall. BT's made enough trance in his time to be considered a trance producer in part, and ESCM was a very good album with some very famous trance singles on it.

I've never thought of Ima as a trance record. It's always been a house record for me. Loving You More- pure house. Quark- acid house. I tried to think of it as a progressive trance album, but when I played it next to something like PVD's Seven Ways it was just so damn syncopated and funky I couldn't buy it. In fact, it was my struggle to define what the Ima was that lead me onto epic house. When I discovered epic house, Ima suddenly fit perfectly, where as before it had always broken the template. Ima convinced me that "epic house" wasn't a redundant tag but a necessary one.

Although it came out in Dec 07, Al Azar (aka the most talented unsigned TA producers) gave out a FREE album of 16 freaking awesome tracks.

Why no one bothered to sign these dudes, I dunno. But the album is full of trance and trancey breaks goodies.

If you liked Mirco de Govia's album, you'll probably like this one too
