Reviews & Discussion

Review by DJ_Verbatim Aug 10, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)

referencing A State Of Trance 2005, 2xCD, Comp, Mixed, UL 1283-2

It's too bad that the Ultra release is missing 6 tracks. While the track selection on the Ultra label is good, the track selection on the BMG and Resist labels is more euphoric and harder per CD 1 and 2, respectively.

Some of the highlights of this album are those very last tracks in the compilation. Some noteworthy examples are Marcos - Cosmic String on disc 1, and Eye Wall - Bad Deal and Liquid Overdose - Ancient Space on disc 2.

It's a shame that Ultra didn't include those more "obscure" tracks because it detracts from the depth and atmosphere found on the other labels, something which some American trance CDs are notorious for.

While this CD is a fine example of what a trance mix CD should be, the Dutch versions are superior in terms of content.
