Review by fabriknos Nov 19, 2007
Superb trance from an unfortunately short-lived project of Claudio Guissani. I remember listening to his more popular project Union Jack (w/ labelmate Simon Berry) in the mid 90s and being completely floored by the unique combination of acid and progressive trance, something that no other producer has done as well as them. This led me to his solo project Terra Ferma and all i can say is that this man had the formula long before any of the big progressive trance DJs started to understand it. It's something that is timeless and epic, yet tasteful and technical, a style that even the most discerning techno producer can appreciate. I'll listen to this man for the rest of my life, and although those times are gone now, he will be one of the flag bearers for this sound.
