The tracklist speaks alone here. MFG, Blue Planet Corporation, X-Dream, Transwave, Etnica, Astral Projection and the famous Platipus records artist Art of Trance remixed by Man With No Name all on a compilation released in 1995. All tracks by these artists have appeared a thousand times elsewhere so I’m not going to discuss them again. There are hardly any other collections released in the same year with all these famous artists together.
The lesser known artists here are Rhythmystec, an artist with only two 12" releases on Matsuri but whose tracks appeared on a good number of compilations and the quirkily named artist 100th Monkey whose track Spritus is absolutely fantastic and unique. Transwave’s Rezwalker is obviously one of the classiest tracks but the mix appearing here didn't make it on much CD's, though of course the original and the even better London Live mix are better than the rare version here.
You can have all these tracks elsewhere, except track 9, and this is the main purpose of my review. Radial Blur is not the version that appeared a year later on Astral Projection’s groundbreaking album “Trust In Trance”. Instead this is a downtempo/ambient version similar in style to the ambient version of “People Can Fly” (titled Still Dreaming) on the same album.
The exclusive version of Radial Blur doesn’t make this release a must have, but for Goa fans having all titles already there’s still an excuse to buy this.
