Review by breakbeatscientist Dec 02, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)

If one tune encapsulates the genius of Acen for me, then "Close Your Eyes (XXX Mix)" is the one. I have never come accross another hardcore track which appears to squeeze a whole "rave" into it's 7 minute running time.
With it's energetic start to warm you up. "Close Your Eyes (XXX Mix)" then builds up in intensity with mentasmic rave stabs, Jim Morrison/Public Enemy samples and rolling breakbeats (NWA's "Straight Out Of Compton"???). Then then the "rush" hits you near the end with these almost heavenly synths and exclamations of "ECSTACY!!!".
For a non-drug user to feel such feelings of elation when hearing this track, just goes to show the sheer brilliance of Acen's compositions. Throwaway, rave-crap??? Not a chance!
