I didn't really know what to expect from this album before listening to it, and afterwards, I wasn't impressed. Paul van Dyk never appealed to me as a talented producer, and although he managed many club hits later on, not much of his work seems to have that refined sound that good music usually has. His work on this release is fairly simple, with the expected goodies of For An Angel and 45 RPM, but the synths are reused often and there is not much of a flow to the tracks. Worth a listen to find out what Paul van Dyk was like long ago, but its barely worth a relisten.

For An Angel was given all the praise, released as a single with the E-werk club mix which updated the tune into a Words like structure. However, the real gem here is I'm comin' to take you away. It's got that punchy sound, and although the 909 floor and offbeat bass line aren't the core of the tune because there are filter envelopes and female vocal samples, typical of a lame club track, the intro that leads it in is quite effective. The track naming makes the album sound like a porn flick. Introjection sounds like penetration; Ejeculoutro sounds like ejaculation, but that's just me. Germans...

The album is genius early PvD overall, but my ultimate all-time favorite on this album is Emergency! with the guitars added for this album version. Some people might not like the screaming synths reminding of ambulance sirens at the end, but I think overall it's a great song... great buildup with a lighthearted athmosphere throughout... Step Right On is a great song, but I like the 2003 remake on Global better, it sounds fresher and better arranged. And, of course you cannot miss the original mix of "For An Angel", which, even though outdated and does not have the solid beat of the 1998 mix, but is classic none the less. Other songs, even though not mentioned here are a must as well. Quality!
