NRG MASTERS - Power 
reviewed on 10/28/01Label: 2001 Klone Records/Rumour Records (England) Style: High Energy Index #: CDKOPY 133 |
|
| Review: | |
New HI-NRG
classic release from KLONE on their series called NRG
MASTERS. Two previous volumes reviewed earlier this year featuring
key NRG labels such RECORD SHACK
and PASSION were very successful.
KLONE is continuing their task to bring "hits packages" originating
from major NRG labels playing an important
role in this genre within last twenty years. Now it is time for Canadian
label: POWER owned by VINCE DEGIORGIO
who produced also most of the featured tracks. Thanks to VINCE
such hits as "Savin' Myself"
by ERIA FACHIN struck American Top 10 in late 80's. His work
actually brought several other projects to NI-NRG
mainstream in the mid to late 80's. Currently working for RCA in the
US, VINCE remains an influencial person in selecting DANCE
tunes for this label. Very much regarded by the NRG
community and music industry! This double CD compilation features
most of POWER's hits. For instance
you will find here all famous hits by TAPPS such as "My
Forbidden Lover", "Burnin' With Fire" and "Runaway".
From immortal NRG star BARBARA DOUST
came two her big hits: from 1988 "If you
Love Somebody" (classic NRG
tune that is part of the genre heritage) and "Take
Me As I Am". Among other superb tunes are "Startstruck
Love" by BOILING POINT, VANELLE's "Tell
Me", CAREN COLE's "I Need
A Lover Tonight" or KIM ESTY's classic "Your
Love Feels Like Dynamite". Taken together this excellent
compilation put together 20 all-time-favorite NRG anthems in one box.
An outstanding buy for all of you who are into this genre and the only
opportunity to have "best of POWER"
in one offering! This set is available directly from KLONE starting
November 5th, 2001. In the mix you will find 8 tracks taken from
both CDs. Enjoy! For more information about this and another releases please visit Klone/Rumour Records on line. |

New volume of popular
TECHNO-TRANCE oriented series: "TECHNO
CLUB" is out already!. Some of you might not remember
this but the series' concept came from the name of ultimate and legendary
TECHNO CLUB called "Dorian Gray" localized in Frankfurt's
Airport in Germany (club is closed since December 12, 2000 but the
spirit of it remains alive). The series always features TALLA2
XLC a legend of German TECHNO and
set of well regarded in the TECHNO/TRANCE
scene invited DJs (projects) Volume 14 features well-known European
TRANCE project of COSMIC GATE.
Ths project consists of two DJs and producers: BOSSI (Stefan Bossems)
and NIC SCHAGALL (Claus Terhoeven). Both guys met around
4 years ago in the occasion of remixing such projects as SASH, NBG
or DARIO G. "Mental Atmosphere"
and "Somewhere Over The Rainbow"
were project's first singles and almost instantenously warranted COSMIC
GATE's solid position in German dance scene. Project's album "Rhythm
& Drums" was ranked at German Longplay Charts
in the Top. The new single: "Fire Wire"
(remix of their track from several years ago) is current. The Track
listing again captivates the ingenious music selection of the Protagonists.
Beside the current TRANCE crushers from
the clubs (SACCOMAN - "The Recall")
you will also find above mentioned new single of COSMIC GATE
- "Fire Wire" in LCF Remix.
Actually when you will look into track listing of COSMIC GATE
setting you will realize that they focused more on TECHNO
style. Among of some awesome tunes in this style are "Megara"
by MEGARA feat. DJ LEE or "White
Bird" by VANESSA MEA !!! just to name the few.
TALLA's setting is actually TRANCE
oriented if you will. Among some crasing monsters you will find "Bring
Me Back Light" by GRAY C. FROST feat. DAVEY D.,
"Liberation" by legendary UK-based
DJ and producer MATT DAREY, "Sensuality"
by ELAYA or "Such Is Life"
by RANK 1 in TALLA's remix. TALLA actually included
also his own tune: "Always".
His setting includes also a bonus multimedia track. A 5 minutes video
featuring interview with TALLA and COSMIC GATE. Pretty
cool! For sound sampler I prepared the mix featuring 8 tunes (5 from
TALLA's setting and 3 from COSMIC GATE). Enjoy the sound! | Title:
FERRY CORSTEN - Live At Dance Valley -reviewed
on 10/06/01 Label: 2001 Purple Eye Entertainment BV (Holland) Style: Teutonic Trance Index #: CCD1505 |
|
| Review: | |
DANCE VALLEY for last 6
years developed into full blast ultimate DANCE experience you can hardly
forget. If you never heard about DANCE VALLEY, you definately should.
This annual event takes place at Spaarnwoude Recreational Area in Amsterdam/Velsen
(Holland) every year and is probably is one of the biggest event of
this kind. The latest event took place on August 4th, 2001 (and if you
plan to be there next year, please mark your calendar for August 03,
2002). This year's event featured many stages and several very well
established DJs and producers such as: CARL COX, ORBITAL, TOM HARDING,
SVEN VÄTH and many others including a highlight: FERRY CORSTEN.
I am not going to introduce you to FERRY, because many of his
releases were previously reviewed on eurodancehits.com and by now most
of you TRANCE freaks should be familiar
with this most prolific DJ and producer. This offering allows all of
you who didn't attend the event or are simply fans of his talent to
be put right back LIVE at MAINSTAGE where he played. This was truly
a massive DJ set filled with several exclusive tracks FERRY produced
just for this event. You will find here the biggest tracks played at
DANCE VALLEY but also have an opportunity to learn what's coming, in
it's sneak preview. With re-shaped classic tunes such "My
Dance" by FUNK EINSATZ and interestingly sounding
"Dance Valley 2001" by SYSTEM
F you are getting a CD with some hard to get remixes and the sound
that will haunt you. Indeed this is the compilation that all of you
fans of FERRY CORSTEN should get and TRANCE
fans cannot afford to miss! Look at the track listing that is excellent
and add to it a great mixing experience and you should have a good picture
of what's coming on you. Please take a moment and listen to the sound
sampler featuring 7 titles from this DJ set (the original Ferry's mix
was not retained). Enjoy the sound and run for this CD before it is
too late.If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

Tunnel Trance Force - Vol. 18
reviewed on 10/06/01 Label: 2001 Sony Music Media (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance Index #: 504 531 2 |
|
| Review: | |
Few weeks ago I presented
you with special edition of "Tunnel Trance"
called "TUNNEL GOES IBIZA 2001". Now, it is time for
the next regular volume: 18. Once again DJ DEAN delivers the
best power crasher double mix you can get these days. Fans of this series
will be pleased with the selection. Already in the TOP TEN Compilations
Charts, the list of fans of this series is on the rise. The track listing
for this compilation was picked by DJ DEAN himself. The newest
volume captivates current cutting-edge TRANCE
and TECHNO sound divided into 2 CDs featuring
two mixes. The first CD is definately TRANCE-oriented.
The mixing is excellent and track listing is unbelievable. No matter
who you are, no matter how you feel, if you like the TRANCE,
the heaven is here. Among 18 tunes on this first CD you will find tunes
by MARIO LOPEZ, KAI TRACID, TUKAN and others. In most cases,
they represent BIG ROOM TRANCE experience
you will have fun to listen to. In this extraordinary selection you
will also find "Get Your Things Together"
by CAMILIA. Ultrafast, synth-rich fare that will take you on
a special spin. You might already know few titles since it takes time
to select tunes for compilations, but by no means it affects the quality
of this offering. The mix itself is an excellent show of synth fireworks
flawlessly moving from one to another tune. The second CD is more TECHNO/HOUSE
oriented. No wonder, after all, it is the club sound that predominates
around. Some hard charged fares such "Ousiders"
by ACCENTER & THREE 0, overplayed "Into
The Space" by PLAYTHING, "Bad
House Music" by DJ DEAN himself and many others are
here as well. Definately this mix is for all clubbing souls to digest.
For the sampler mix from this 38-track rich compilation, I have chosen
10 representative tunes taken from both CDs (8 from the first CD and
2 from the second). Hopefully it will help you to make some decision
if you will. Enjoy the sound and get this compilation to support the
dance music!If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

PULSEDRIVER In The Mix 1
reviewed on 09/28/01 Label: 2001 Antiloop Records (Germany) Style: Trance/Techno Index #: 368.0002.2 |
|
| Review: | |
Somehow I missed this release
when it was out back in June 2001, but it is really worth of your attention.
First of all it features full length mixes on two CDs done by PULSEDRIVER,
secondly it is actually firmed by SOUND VISION label that you should
well know from their amazing TRANCEMASTER
series. While PULSEDRIVER mixes were already featured in several recent
releases like TECHNO CLUB vol. 11
for instance, his setting featured in this compilation is quite different
than what you used to hear. First of all the dominating sound is TRANCE,
and in the style of TRANCEMASTER
series. Basically it is more oriented club/underground TRANCE
than the mainstream more commercial TRANCE
featured in other compilations. Some tunes still should ring the bell
like "Icarus" by FLUTLICHT,
amazing big room epic "Release Me"
by FACTOR 9 that many of you asked when I presented in MONTHLY
VIDEO MIX live performance of PAUL VAN DYK who did use it in his set,
"Viva Canarias" by 2001:CANARIAS
and few others. Mostly though you are exposed to tunes you probably
didn't have chance to listen to before. This is an additional and big
adventage of this setting. PULSEDRIVER vel SLOBODAN PETROVIC
is not only just DJ but also producer and composer with his brand new
album "Sequence" released
few weeks ago. No wonder why several of his remixes are found in this
set as well. For instance very well done "Snowflakes"
by DEE AGE where PULSEDRIVER heavily used electronics
combined with some virtuoso piano section, also his mix of "Skydiver"
by DJ SNOWMAN is an art by itself! . Taken together this double
CD DJ set is a must for all of you who are into cutting edge TRANCE
and TECHNO. You will be delighted with choices of tunes and incredible
sound that will take to a multidimensional trip. In sound sampler I
am featuring 10 tunes taken from both CDs. Enjoy it and get this release
when you still can! If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

Sound Of Ibiza 2001
reviewed on 09/23/01 Label: 2001 Dance Network / More Music (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance/House Index #: DNT 10076-2 |
|
| Review: | |
DANCE NETWORK has been
around for a while and is known from releasing good quality music. Today
let me present you their newest offering "SOUND
OF IBIZA 2001". This double CD is divided thematically.
First CD is almost exclusively focused on cutting-edge TRANCE you can
expect from IBIZA clubs. You will find on this CD many tunes that were
huge this summer like "On The Move"
by BARTHEZZ, breathtaking "Light A
Rainbow" by TUKAN in CJ Stone Radio Remix and several
others. There are also less known to me gems like "Spirit
Is Free" by TOX 'N' STONE in mix I didn't hear before
by TALLA 2XLC. While TALLA usually does TECHNO,
his remix is a delicious TRANCE with haunting
female vocals and really incredible brilliant synthesizers that soar
gloriously throughout. THREE DRIVES ON A VINYL came with rather
CHILL-OUT tune "Sunset
On Ibiza". Perfect tune to calm you down after the party.
There are more interesting tunes like "Shadows"
by DITTO or under same name by PURE LIGHTS. More TECHNO
oritented audience should like "Read My Heart"
by DJ CYGLAS. This brilliant tune combines not only cutting-edge
TECHNO but angelic TRANCE
melodic line and amazing sound effects that will touch your imagination.
NICKY DAVIS with his "To Munich"
delivers contemporary electronic sound. Imagine yourself on the beach
at the evening with stars above you and thrilling melody going thru
your ears. WOWSER! Also don't miss new tune from YVES DERUYTER
"Rhythmic Bass" closing the first
CD. Second CD is almost exclusively dominated by EURO
HOUSE sound. This particular sound is widely played in Ibiza
clubs. So you will find here tunes by ETIENNE DE CRACY, SOUL PROVIDERS,
DAWN MADISON and others. Taken together a nice set of tunes. For
your enjoyment I prepared the mix featuring six tunes from this offering.

TRANCE NATION - America Two
reviewed on 09/23/01 Label: 2001 Ultra Records (US) / Ministry Of Sound (UK) Style: Trance Index #: UL 1081-2 |
|
| Review: | |
If you are a true follower
of TRANCE releases, the name of the series
TRANCE NATION should ring the bell.
This particular series is being released by UK-based MINISTRY OF SOUND
featuring mixes by SYSTEM F (FERRY CORSTEN). MINISTRY OF SOUND
launched "US edition" of TRANCE NATION
series with first volume "TRANCE NATION
- America" mixed by Los Angeles based TAYLOR
and NYC-based Belgian born JIMMY VAN M (resident of "Twilo").
Today let me present a next installement "TRANCE
NATION - America Two" this time featuring two sets.
First done by German DJ/ producer ATB (ANDRE "ATB" TANNEBERGER)
and second by Miami-based GEORGE ACOSTA. I am sure most of you
are familiar with ATB. His two albums were previously reviewed
on this site as well as many singles as well as his video clips (also
from his SEQUENTIAL ONE era) are presented. ATB presents mix
featuring 14 tunes. Most of them should not be a surprise for all of
you who are getting European releases, and set might not be all together
that exciting. Keep in mind though that this set is US release with
breaking into American club scene sound. Usually, if we were getting
European offering their original release in Europe was usually distant.
Not in this case. Featured tunes are in most current, like for instance
the newest tune by ATB himself "Let
U Go", "Castles In The Sky"
by IAN VAN DAHL or tunes by BARTHEZZ, MAURO PICOTTO and
several others. Selection done by ATB is very careful to accomodate
American dance scene that is slowly being exposed to the sound. He is
avoiding a shock some of clubbers not being exposed to this sound might
encounter. GEORGE ACOSTA comes from Miami scene that is actually
one of the most TRANCE/TECHNO oriented
scenes in entire country. He is well regarded American DJ/Producer with
impressive dossier. His mix features a combination of various shades
of TRANCE from big room stomper "Exhale"
by SYSTEM F to more TECHNO/HOUSE
oriented tracks by SURREAL or MARIA RUBIA. He also features
his own tune "Talking Over Space".
Both mixes are of excellent quality and worth of your money. I strongly
recommend to visit ULTRA RECORDS label website to see what other compilations
and series are being released by them. This label is really devoted
into bringing a quality club sound from Europe to American scene. Please
check impressive track listing and listen to the sound sampler featuring
10 tunes from this release. Enjoy!If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

Mavens of quality HI-NRG/EURODANCE
are getting their reward in this next amazing release from KLONE. They
are back with volume 3 of very successful series: "EUROHEAVEN".
As always all the titles featured in this set are coming from
S.A.I.F.A.M.. If you recently visited S.A.I.F.A.M.
website you noticed that current trend this label follows is rather
TECHNO club sound than anything else. Do
not get mislead though. This mega Italian label still produces great
dance records but at this point the music is mostly at DAT format and
mainly for licensing purpose. So, the titles you will find on this CD
are yet to be (if they ever will) released on S.A.I.F.A.M.
labels themselves. Therefore, this set in a sense is truly a unique
offering for all of you who missed the DANCE
sound coming from S.A.I.F.A.M.
Thanks to KLONE Records such opportunity became a reality. The series'
accent remains on contemporary NRG sound
as it is from the very beginning. Most of the featured titles are covers
and received NRG-etic treatment that prolly
would never appear on the original recordnings. For instance, MADONNA's
controversial tune "What It Feels Like For
A Girl" received makeover from IN.DEEP, Classic "It's
Raining Men" got face lift by EAST END. Already dancable
FUNNY's tune "The Way You Love Me"
was remade by DB. Not only that, the new treatment received also
SOLID BASE super hit "I Like It"
by VARADEROS. If you like what UNLIMITED BEAT did with
their medleys of many POP/DANCE stars,
check their brand new mix of ... BRITNEY SPEARS tunes! No kidding. When
you will browse both CD you will find many, truly dancable tunes to
choose from. However, the only original production coming from FARINA/TURATTI
is newest fare from WILDSIDE "Queen
Of Love". So taken together get this double CD offering,
because at this point it is your only chance to check what S.A.I.F.A.M.
is "hiding". In the mix you will find 7 tracks taken
from both CDs. Enjoy! For more information about this and another releases please visit Klone/Rumour Records on line. |

Another set from DREAM
DANCE series arrived and once again a solid release. As you
might noticed I recently reviewed several compilations with TRANCE
and TECHNO sound. Since most of them are
coming in near similar time, they suffer what I call "redundancy".
No wonder why you will listen to the some tracks you already known.
Since the series rightfully claims that it features THE BEST of tunes
from these genres presented selection validates this statement. You
will find here such well known tunes as "Cambodia"
by PULSEDRIVER (featured mix is done by FRAGMA so the sound shifts
a bit toward TECHNO-HOUSE), "Tides
Of Time" by DJ SHAH feat. NO IRON (in GREEN COURT
Remix) and several others tune. Since this one comes after LOVE PARADE
that took place in the middle of July in Berlin, some tunes related
to that event are here as well. For instance THE LOVE COMMITEE
presented "Loveparade 2001 - You Can't Stop
Us". I am not sure if you are aware that this year event
was in great jeopardy. This tune delivers the message that the event
is unstoppable. To celebrate the event also DA HOOL delivered
the 2001 Remix by HOOLIGANS of originally written for the LOVE PARADE:
"Meet Her At The Love Parade".
Among interesting tunes you will find newest from KAI TRACID.
After relative long period of silence he came with new fare "Too
Many Times". The CD features Yoda Remix. Sound is not exactly
original yet the tune offers glorious TRANCE
with wondorously lush synth lines dominating it. For more exquisite,
big room TRANCE you gotta check "Fly"
by DETEKTOR! Truly a floor packer, joyful extravaganza of synth
fireworks and gorgeous music! I was also flabbergasted by the fact that
finally INFERNAL got some recognition. Few months ago I reviewed
their debut album, but they had to wait to be included in BEST selection
with their "Muzaik". I can only
scratch surface, so for full enjoyment you have to get the product.
Owners of previous volumes do not need invitation. They know the solidness
of the series. Others should get it for it's quality. The sound sampler
features 9 tracks from both CDs. Keep in mind though that I featured
tracks I didn't present in any other previous reviews, so it doesn't
represent this release very well, just trust me that it's good. Check
the track listing and try to find other tunes in different sound sampler
from previously reviewed compilations. For now enjoy this mix!If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |
