    Tiësto - Bring Me To Life [Musical Freedom]

    I am probably one of those who is in between. I thought I would not be interested to check that trance set at all, but decided to do so anyway. The title track of the thread was pretty meh, but I am listening to that set and I thought there was some relatively interesting stuff even before...

    Union Jack - Funnelweb [Platipus 2009]

    Pylon Pigs is excellent. Funnelweb is a good one even if I preferred and still prefer Papillon/Triclops.

    Astral Projection - For All Mankind [Iboga Records]

    I'd be interested in CD release too. Seems a bit unlikely though... Would be nice to prove me wrong though!

    Enigma State - Of The Essence (Artist Album) [Transtate Records]

    I did exactly this. At least one copy needs to be sent to Finland now. :D

    What is your favorite recent remix/rework of a trance classic?

    Some from the top of my mind. Few years ago Paul Sawyer made a version of Quench's Dreams which modifies it to nicely to more progressive sound. From the last year, I actually enjoyed Charlotte de Witte's rework of Universal Nation. Now of course, all these reworks are very very hit or...

    Paul van Dyk - This World Is Ours (Artist Album) [VANDIT Records] (incl. John 00 Fleming)

    My issue with this album is that it is almost there. I mean, it feels like all the required ingredients are there, but the end result is still bland. It is not just the PvD problem to be fair.

    Above & Beyond - Bigger Than All Of Us (Artist Album) [Anjunabeats]

    I also dare to say I am intrigued of this release. With both We Are All We Need & Common Ground I was positively surprised when hearing them. Sure it was pretty much pop trance (dance?), but in album length that style and those tracks worked surprisingly well. Even to the point where I decided...

    Enigma State - Of The Essence (Artist Album) [Transtate Records]

    I usually listen to the albums before I make a decision regarding the purchase. But in this case, I am ready to make an exception. While I am not all that excited about all Enigma State tracks, the quality has been consistently on a such high level that I am willing to buy the CD even before...

    Solarstone - innermost (Artist Album) [Black Hole Recordings]

    Yep. Ferry Corsten's Connect was the best trance album of the last year for me. But releasing majority of the stuff before the album doesn't actually make the album release itself exciting.

    Enlusion — Midnight Mirage (incl. Basil O'Glue Remix) [BAGRUHM]

    I have now came across with Basil's version couple of times. It is stellar!

    Survey: Bandcamp vs Beatport

    When I buy stuff, I will first try to find it from Bandcamp. UX for both is torrid though. Beatport slightly better, but it is often slooooow.

    Trance artists with their own unique sound and style

    And the downfall of producers in quantity too. But yes, back then it was kinda clear when the track was made by Andy Moor. Rarer these days if we are not talking about The Digital Blonde. Even Orkidea nowadays it not as unique as he once was. The likes of Oliver Prime and Whirloop were really...
