Laurent Garnier ‎– Stronger By Design EP

Stronger by Design starts off impressively with the New Age mix of "The Dream", being one of the highlights of Garnier's early career. Gentle beats and nice synths provide a excellent basis for the keyboard melody kicking in halfway through, which ends the track beautifully. The following mixes of "Virtual Breakdown" are slightly more aggressive and predictable. The keyboard lines return on "Luv' Chicago", which is great, but could do a lot better without its repeating vocal line. The closing Gurning mix of "The Dream" adds some elements to the original, such as other drum sounds, making it a nice alternate version of the first track.
