Tracks 2 and 3 are not particularly interesting, and thus this release is defined by its namesake, One Tear Away.
One Tear Away slightly deviates from Airbase's conventional style in which he uses a supersaw lead, a pounding drum track, and a melodic riff to create a dancefloor bomb; instead, it uses some obscure synths, and even a piano, to create one of Airbase's best works to date, perhaps even better than Escape.
But keeping this in reality, One Tear Away is not the trance anthem that it almost was; while its an awesome song, Airbase's sound has a ways to go before he can muster an instant classic.

Airbase did it again.
As simple as that. An amazing EP from Jesper with three powerfull tracks.
One Tear Away; anthem alert! This is meant to destroy the dancefloor, really energetic tune. I love it.
Rest In Peace; a little bit more downtempo, but indeed a very great track too, with a techy feel.
Medusa; powerfull old-school trancer at it's best. Very addictive melody.
All in all a high-class EP from Mr. Airbase; all the tracks are great, with One Tear Away being my favourite.
