Tunnel Trance Force - Vol. 17 Label: 2001 Sony Music Media (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance Index #: 503 067 2 |
|
| Review: | |
Next edition of "Tunnel
Trance" is out and out BIG TIME. As you might know DJ
DEAN does on regular basis mixes for this series as well as for
"DJ Networx" series (volume
9 reviewed below). "Tunnel Trance - volume
17" is packed with excellent choices of 36 slamming TRANCE/TECHNO
tunes. What makes this double CD offering really exciting is the fact
that it features mostly new tunes that didn't appear on previously reviewed
compilations. Of course there are still some you should be well familiar
with like "One Minute To Heaven"
by SUNBEAM, "Loving You"
by MARC ET CLAUDE or "On The Move"
by BARTHEZZ just to name the few. Entire setting is a concerto
of upbeat TECHNO and TRANCE
tunes to die for. First CD starts with ANGEL OF DEATH (Kai Tracid
side project). The song is a pumping TECHNO
with some thunderous throwbacks, heavenly strings mixed with diabolic
climate. Good indeed. Another pumping tune more on TECHNO-HOUSE
side is "Club Attack" by SOLID
SLEEP. Worth of mentioning is "Körperfresser"
by CLOUDBURST. This is raving TECHNO
interwoven with pounding, powerful synths and a reveting melody, not
to mention German rough male vocals that adds the twist to the overall
darkness of this tune. This tune seemlesly is being mixed with "Loose
My Mind" by MURPHY BROWN works with MIKE NERO yet
another big room powerhouse TECHNO marvel.
As a matter of fact mixing done by DJ DEAN is quite smooth. You
are flowing from one dimension to another dimension. Incredible trip
with the incredible music. Truly a hedonistic pleasure for all of you
who like TRANCE and TECHNO.
There are so many good tunes that I am not able to single them out,
but what I have done, I prepared a sound sampler with 10 tracks
from this compilation. Original mixing of DJ DEAN was not retained,
but the sampler was prepared to present you with what you might encounter.
This double CD is a good investment and series remains a solid seller.
I strongly recommend this set. For now enjoy the sound.If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

DJ TOP 40 - Volume 6 Label: ZYX/Dance Network (Germany) Style: Dance Index #: DNT 10073-2 |
|
| Review: | |
Not bad, not bad at all!
Next set of "DJ TOP 40"
from ZYX has been recently available. This series keep compiling what's
seems to be a digest of what is currently popular in German dance scene.
This double CD set is firmly divided into 2 parts. The first one (CD
1) features mostly TECHNO and TRANCE
tunes. The choices are good and you should enjoy it very much so! No
wonder why such tunes as "DJs, Fans &
Freaks" by BLANK JONES, "Exploration
Of Space" by COSMIC GATE, "Rhythm
And Sex" by PAFFENDORF have been featured in here.
All of them were well received in Germany. Of course there are more
excellent tunes featured in here. For instance "We
Call It Techno" by S.O.L. vs. GAT-CHA feat. LALU
delivers array of sizzling synths hooks. Lucious female and male vocals
adds additional twist to this TECHNO marvel.
Another catchy TECHNO tune with definite
TRANCE addon is "Die
Verführung". Track is generally instrumental but you
will like catchy melodic line and very sensual female vocals in French!
I am always aroused by this language, and it's touch in this electronic
fare is just marvellous. You gotta check it out. Another electronic
beauty is definately "Flashback"
by MARC MARIS vs. RAMONE. Fireworks of exploding synths will
blast you off. Sparkling production and beatiful dance music. "Living
In Love" by TRANCEPORTER goes to the same class!
Do you remember tune "Voyage, Voyage"
by DESIRELESS? Wait until you will hear "remake" by
LEGEND B. This is heavy TECHNO remake
of this timeless piece with some original? pieces of vocals. Really
different from the original one, but what the heck! It's just another
try to "revamp" this classic! Taken together you should enjoy
the first CD. The second one sports variety of DANCE
genres. It's POP, it's HOUSE,
it's TECHNO, it's ... almost anything.
Tracks like "Lucky Star" by NICKY
NYCE, "Italo Dancer" by FLOORFILLA,
"My Beat" by BLAZE feat. PALMER
BROWN were tossed together to make a one "garden salad"
of dance. Definately a good buy for some of you, who just would like
to have well rounded dance compilation without paying a special attention
to a certain style. In sound sound sampler I featured 6 tracks takenn
from both CDs (five from CD1 and one from CD2). Enjoy! If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

Dream Dance vol. 20 Label: 2001 Sony Music Media (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance Index #: 503068 2 |
|
| Review: | |
New offering from DREAM
DANCE series just has been released. Everytime I am getting
a new volume, I am always eager to put the CD on and listen what it
offers. Once again, I have been rewarded with excellent choices of music.
Series itself became so popular that SONY decided to open series own
website. No wonder, this set remains a flagship of TRANCE
from this label. First CD features essential tunes that you might already
heard (I fetured them either in REVIEWS section os our VIDEO clips area)
like "Stanley (Here I Am)" by
AIRHEADZ, "Turn The The Tide"
by SYLVER, "Unsolved Mysteries"
by KAY CEE and countless number of other tunes. My attention
caught new fare from DUMONDE - "Never
Look Back". Big room TRANCE
with killer synth work underlined with female vocals. A true TRANCE
masterpiece wonderfully pumped up and oustandigly produced. Also "Oval
Sun" by SHADOW WARRIORS stands out as uplifting yet
dark TRANCE tune. Another intense experience.
Second CD is also a spectacular journey to the sound. As you probably
noticed true DREAM sound is hard to find,
yet SONY found some to feature on this CD. This is true especially for
such track as "Timelapse" by
SPRING where the sound of singing birds is being embedded to
hard hypnotic synth lines. This CD has many outstanding TRANCE
tunes like "The Gate Of Passion"
by NEO PROJECT, "Fly (Away)"
by VINCENT DE MOOR or "Journey"
by GOLDEN EYE PROJECT. The CD closes newest single from MISSING
HEART - "Tears In May". Seems
to me that MISSING HEART is finally surfacing the German Dance
scene, thanks to a powerful label as SONY. Taken together yet another
marvel from this consistently outstanding series. The sound sampler
features 8 tracks from both CDs. Enjoy !If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

DJ Networx vol. 9 Label: 2001 Sony Music Media (Germany) Style: Trance/Techno Index #: 502162 2 |
|
| Review: | |
Another excellent compilation
from SONY. This time volume 9 of "DJ Networx"
a double CD mixed as usually by DJ DEAN. Once again he has chosen
40 tracks representing TOP TRANCE and TECHNO
sound. Consistent to previous releases CD is more devoted to TRANCE/TECHNO
sound. Well... not necessary at least the first CD starts with a PROGRESSIVE
TOP tune from BROOKLYN BOUNCE - "Born
To Bounce". I know it is not exactly a brand new one, by
DJ DEAN keeps his mix more club oriented, so no wonder such a
CLUB marvel has been chosen for starer! As a matter of fact first three
songs on this CD follow that category, but with "Exploration
Of Space" by COSMIC GATE the mood starts to change.
I would like you to check Green Court Remix of "The
Darkness Is Calling" by WICKED TWINS. I have to admit,
it is one of the most powerful mixes of this tune I heard so far. Another
example of outstanding remixed is one done by PULSEDRIVER for DEE
AGE's "Snowflakes". For upbeat
TECHNO you should check "Dream"
by DJ CYGLAS vs. DJ PURE. This track is hot! Synthesizers intensify
and take off! Just listen to it! One of my favorite tunes on this CD
is a new fare "Angellight" by
RED SECTOR. Fast TRANCE and percolating
buttom! The German spoken male vocals adds to it's darkness and ghostly
female vocals makes this one even more mysterious. The second CD in
more ACID TECHNO and RAVE
oriented. If you like BASS and DRUMS you gonna have lotsa of them on
this CD. It's starts with speedy "Universe
Of Dreams's" by RADIUM feat. DJ INSIDE following
by PROGRESSIVE sound of YVES DERUYTER
in his monster club hit "Back To Earth"
and many other tunes. This CD is is really strictly TECHNO club oriented.
Massive! Taken together another good release from this series coming
from TUNNEL CLUB resident CD. As a matter of fact, TUNNEL club takes
sabbatical in IBIZA to the biggest club in the world: "Ibiza Super-Discothec
Privilege", where such DJs as DJ DEAN, COSMIC GATE, NILS VAN GOGH,
CHARLY LOWNOISE, BLANK & JONES, PULSERDIVER and many more wil lbe
playing every Tuesday. Sound sampler features 8 tunes taken from both
CDs. Enjoy the sound !If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

Trancemaster 29 Label: 2001 Vision Soundcarriers / Zomba (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance Index #: 302 4104-2 |
|
| Review: | |
All right! My favorite
series these days TRANCEMASTER has
a new volume: 29. Again, the set not only did not dissapoint
me, but made me like it even more. Set of 23 TRANCE
tunes all in extended versions are being served. This is an ultimate
set for DJs playing this genre, since the featured mixes as I said are
extended and tunes are usually available in vinyl format only, not to
mention close to impossible to get them here in the US. Some of tunes
are quite well known like "Tenshi"
by GOURYELLA, but for me most of the remaining titles were actually
new. Every track is unique and music is very spacy and beatiful, fitting
both clubs as well as for playing loudly in your headphones. The selection
is superb as well. I actually had trouble what to select to sound sampler,
because I personally liked almost all the titles. First CD features
many tracks that you will enjoy immensely. For instance Aquaplex Mix
of "Too Cold" by ICEBREAKER
is very fast PROGRESSIVE/TRANCE tune with
rhythmic buttom and dark synths surrounded by DRACULA-like male vocals.
Dramatic and intense.Tracks like "Return
To Forever" by GLOBAL CEE or "Moving
On" by SHADE ON GREY are just pure BIG room TRANCE
to die for. It is short of anything has been just released as well).
For more PROGRESSIVE shade of TRANCE
check tunes like "Kathy's Song"
by APOPTYGMA BERZERK (interesting combination of exquisite synths
with male vocals that is just chilling experience. Big room marvel!)
or "Emotions" by GEORGE ACOSTA
(featured DJ Marc La Cruz Remix is just paralyzing!). For some BREAK
BEAT with TRANCE twist check "Blue Sun"
by DJ X-SONIC. Very interesting creative combination I might
say! Second CD is equally good. I will not be listing titles you should
check, because entire CD is just worth of your attention. This offering
is again not to be missed. I am personally sad, that my collection starts
from volume 26. The series is a collective item and just a tool if you
are DJ. The club success is guaranteed! Run to get it, or you will miss
the opportunity! In sound sampler I featured 10 tracks taken from both
CDs. Enjot the sound! |

Euphoria - True (mixed by Dave Pearce) Label: 2001Telstar Records (UK) Style: Trance/Progressive/House/Hard House Index #: TTVCD3176 |
|
| Review: | |
Well... I am late with
the review of the next compilation from UK series EUPHORIA. Usually
I am getting them when visiting London, but this volume I picked up
in Virgin Megastore in San Francisco during my recent
stay there. This volume is entitled "True"
and is mixed by DAVE PEARCE himself. I am sure DAVID's
sounds familiar to all of you who follows UK TRANCE
scene and some of you might remember another EUPHORIA set entitled
"Transcendental" that I reviewed
back in January. He is one of the most prominent figures in UK scene
I might say. DAVID made a lot of efforts to include his favorites
tracks in this release. He was frantically working on getting clearance
for featured tracks. He partially was able to fulfill the task. When
you will look at the track listing and are "familiar" with the titles,
you will notice that DAVE did not trap himself with just a one
DANCE style. Instead he made eclectic choices
with tracks ranging from PROGRESSIVE, TRANCE
finishing on HARD HOUSE not to mention
some other more "weird" ones as well. DAVE wrote his own introduction
in the leaflet enclosed with this compilation. What he said was that
the aim of this compilation was once again to give you a true Euphoric
experience. He also picked some favorites like "Ghosts"
by TENTH PLANET, his firm favorite at TALL
TREES, mostly because of the brilliant VINCENT DE MOOR mix that
DAVE likes the most. He also highly recommended amazing productions
by PUSH and JAN JOHNSON you should listen to with your
headphones on! He gave some upfront treats from his NuLife
label such as Coast To Coast Mix of "Shout"
by SAGITAIRE and "Happiness" by
SOUND DE-ZIGN. He also included "Fire Wire"
by COSMIC GATE not to mention his "old" mates WARP BROTHERS.
I would like to focus your attention on other tracks as well. For instance
"Remember Me" by JORIO was remixed
by SPACE BROTHERS. This mix is an incredible combination of HOUSE
and TRANCE, with angelic female vocals
that takes you to a seductive journey. Beatiful. DAVE also included
a boolteg version of '92 "Don't You Want Me"
by FELIX. If you are old enough to remember the original you
will be stunned but this version. It retains some familiar melodic line
but otherwise it is quite different. Fabulous! PROGRESSIVE
fans should look into "Butterflies" by
TRANSGENIC TOOLS. The second CD starts with "Pachinko"
by PRAHA pres. XIAN. Very interesting hybrid of HARD
HOUSE and PROGRESSIVE-TRANCE. It
has beat, transcendental feeling and exciting music line to drive you
to a different dimension. The second CD closes "Diamondback"
by MEKKA. TRANCE tune done in dramatic
style, a perfect ending for this fine compilation. Taken together you
have an uiltimate compilation with electronic music without boundaries.
Something to dance to and contemplate to. If you want to catch DAVE
live this summer, you better be ready to visit Balearic Islands. He
will be playing on selected Friday nights in BCM Majorca and every Saturday
from June 16th in San Antonio Ibiza. For now, enjoy this set and get
the taste of what you might get when you will see him LIVE. |
