Reviews & Discussion

Review by dj_kupo Jun 29, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)
This mix represents Tiesto's last glimpse of quality. Though I have never held Tiesto as high as many artists, I believe he churned out some quality trance releases in the mid 90's (thinking of the Forbidden Paradise and Lost Treasures mixes), and while he has rarely hit primo status for me, it's good for what it attempts and occasionally succeeds. There was a melancholy and unique edge to alot of what he put out, and this release is his last mix where he accomplishes this. After this release, his sound drifted away from any kind of accomplished sound or "edge" and now seems to focus solely on being examples of top trance club hits. Anyways, back to this release. Things start off nicely with Theme From Norefjel, perhaps Tiesto's best production to date. From there, we move through several other quality tunes, such as La Paloma, Lost You Somewhere, and some other tracks in that same sound vein. All things considered, this is probably my favorite Tiesto mix, though I have not heard some of the Lost Treasures mixes. I do suggest before passing severe judgement on Tiesto that you give this release a listen, as well as some of his earlier mixes.
