Tekknova - Dancing In Outer Space - 17-Jul-06 05:26 AM
Side A of this excellent record begins with a very unique and well placed sample from the 90s Bruce Willis movie "The Fifth Element." I couldn't believe my ears when I heard how good the film score sounded at the beginning of this trance record, but it took me nearly a year to pinpoint where I had heard the sample before. The Fifth Element, Bruce Willis helps the quintessential being, Lelu, save earth by shooting the lifeforce at an oncoming meteor. Sounds cheesy, but that's not the point; the score from the film features the military counting down "10, 9, 8..." as the meteor approaches while nectarean strings flood the background with beautiful chords. You can hear Lelu crying as it it approaches (shortly before, well... watch the movie, it's a good movie). Anyway, the idea to include it at the beginning of this remix was practially genius. And then, in one fell switch of the sampler, the track turns 180 degrees to synth sounds and ensuing dancefloor madness. Classy.

Morgan King - I'm Free - 02-Apr-05 02:22 AM
Maybe one of the best records of all time, this vinyl features both mixes that Sasha & Digweed mixed together (seamlessly, of course) onto their Nothern Exposure 1 album. The first 1/2 to 2/3 (with some editing involved) of Playdo's Minimalist mix is the 4 minute chordy interim that bridges Rabbit in the Moon - Out of Body Experience with The Full Length La Serrena mix of I'm Free, which has a whole side of vinyl to itself. 6/5.

Apollo 440 - Liquid Cool - 02-Sep-04 09:35 AM
Easily one of the best (maybe THE best) record set I own. EVERY mix on here deserves a 5/5. As many know, the Deep Forest Ice Cold @ The Equator mix is the exact mix on Sasha and Digweed's famous Northern Exposure 1 album. This mix and another are also featured on a separate release of this, but no fan of this amazing song should go without this release. There is a wonderful ambient remix that is a whopping 25 minutes long on one side of vinyl and every second is amazing (Space -320 degree biostatic ambient mix). Deep Forest's other mix is amazing as well but doesn't quite match up to the one on the NE cd. Ollie J's live dubs, the Space Colonization mix, and the Jah wobble mix are a little more dance oriented but they keep the feel of the tune perfectly and each do something original with it. The LP version is absolute classic and is relatively long as well at just over 12 minutes, also featuring vocals unheard on any of the other mixes. The Future Sound of London mix is very Banco de Gaia sounding and is completely original and should definately be heard. On top of every awesome mix, this comes in an awesome 3x12 pack that folds out with a picture of a giant wave. Also featured on the pack are different definitions of "liquid cool." This track was way ahead of its time and is a guranteed favorite. I wish discogs would let me give a 6/5. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a record with this many 5/5's. You owe it to yourself and the track to buy this set.

Marino Stephano - Free Time - 13-Jul-04 02:05 AM
This record is magical. Free time is uplifting and full of energy where seven hours puts out a completely psychadellic environment :) One of my favorite releases, and it's quite hard to find nowadays.

Cabala - Dark Blue - 13-Jul-04 01:50 AM
This is one of my all time favorite records. Both sides of the record are incredible. Each track is etheral and full of emotion. 333 has a similar feeling to that of transa's enervate and Dark blue is very original with its sine wave held notes. This really falls into its own category. It's reasonably hard to find but well worth it. This is an example of Nick Muir's trancier stuff :)
