Review by RoniR Aug 27, 2007 (edited over 2 years ago)
I cant stop smiling when i listen to his sounds.He is undoubtedly being recognized as one of the classic producers of the trance era. In 1998 'Universal Nation' took the world by storm. His Push follow up single, 'Strange World', destroyed hundreds of clubs across Europe, in the same vein as 'Universal Nation'.'The Legacy' once again topping all dance charts ...just to name a few (and i mean a few)....i can only say one thing.." with the dawn of the progressive Tech and Trance era, you can expect to see M.I.K.E at the very front, leading the way." Thank you M.I.K.E. ,u are really a ''GOD''
Review by LordGross Sep 29, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
First thing that's amazing about M.I.K.E. is the amount of his productions, the second thing is the quality of them. It's absolutely astonishing that he has made so may tracks and none of them are bad. His style varies very much, from uplifting t., progressive t., to tribal, techno, almost every 4/4 music style can be found in His discography. He made legendary 'Universal Nation' and many, many more under many aliases. I must admit that I discovered his productions only few years ago and I regret that i haven't heard them sooner. I think every REAL trance fan ought to know M.I.K.E. work as it is completely fantastic. M.I.K.E. is GOD!

Peace!
