This is the better album I've heard in my life. And believe me, I really have heard a lot of things... But this album reaches perfection.
Nostalgies from the better period in Trance history, when all trance lovers were united in one same ideal, and no prejudice existed in anyone of the Trance styles. In fact, all styles were united in one unique spirit, the spirit of total freedom in music.
Goa, ambient, acid, hard... There is only one thing above it all:
TRANCE

I recently pulled this out of the bin. The right thing to do. It is by far, superior to many of the mix cd's that 'dj's are pushing out these days.
Days of Raves at the beach are gone, but now more commercial events take their place...


Sublime moments relived, and a trip down memory lane, worth making every day. Oakenfold delivers a masterpiece.
Too bad there is not a reissue, it would definitely fly off the shelves, and so many Oakie 'fans' would think its a new mix....

I bought this from a independant record shop in Plymouth late 94. I remember thay only had 3 copies on CD and 3 on Cassette which my friend and i bought them all. I've seen copies of the one i have but never the two coloured CD version i have. It is the best mix i've heard and still to this day make every hair stand on end!!

This is an amazing mix. The music is quite "simple" compared to old skool psychedelic trance. I'd rather say it's just regular trance. But very beautiful. Less is so much more! It puts a big smile on my face everytime I hear this mix. Last night I even got tears in my eyes. This is definately one of my favourite mixes/cd's, together with his other mix "A voyage into trance".

This IS the best tracklist I've ever seen and the best tracklist I'll ever see ! It is hopeless to try to find it for buying, but luckily I found it for downloading...
The last weeks I've listen to this mix so many times and there is no doubt: this IS the best mix-cd ever done, all categories...
This cd and A Voyage into Trance are the absolute best works from mr. Oakenfold... To bad he doesn't play really good music anymore...=/

This mix is definitely in my top two CDs EVER. Paul Oakenfold himself admitted that this was his best essential mix, and i agree. Such a great mix here, mixing oldschool trance, some progressive house, and psy trance, and some soundtrack tunes as well. And, this is the most smoothly, flawlessly mixed CD i have ever heard, perfect spot on mixing from oakie. This is very very rare today (i found it on accident on ebay), so get it if you can, its a great album!

Oakenfold's true roots. Look at the date on that mix! 1994! This mix is awesome, the tracks are a perfect blend between the psychadelic vibe of GOA and the harder edges of psy-trance. If i could ever find another copy of this anywhere, i'd buy it.
