Who would have thought that German trance producer Andre Tanneberger--a.k.a. ATB--had such a penchant for irony? It really is the only explanation for why he would name this collection of languid tracks Movin' Melodies. That's not to knock the music--most of which, it must be said, lacks the sheer escapism that makes the hit "9 P.M. (Till I Come)" such a blissed-out pleasure. Movin' Melodies is structured for a party, starting off slow and building toward songs like "Killer 2000" (featuring a vocal that sounds transported from late-1980s electropop). It then loses all momentum on the tedious intro to "Too Much Rain," but picks up again with "Don't Stop." Like "9 P.M.," it features vocalist Yolanda Rivera and is just as much fun, but it's followed by a half-dozen tracks that don't quite match up. --Randy Silver

ATB is my favorite artist, and Movin' Melodies is my favorite album by a landslide. I'll have to say, a lot of my absolute favorite songs have come off this CD: 9PM (Till I come), Don't Stop, Too Much Rain and Sunburn are just a few.
If you are new to trance, this CD would be a great starter/introduction of the way trance is supposed to be done. And if you appreciate good music period, you should definitely add this to your collection.

Movin' Melodies is an album unlike any other album I have ever heard. While all of ATB's albums are incredible, I chose to review Movin' Melodies because it was my first experience with trance styled techno. I was never much of a trance fan simply because trance seems to be a genre in which all the songs begin to sound the same to me. Eventually it becomes hard to distinguish one artist from another. However, ATB's music has a sound all its own and now I am hooked on ATB! I highly recommend this album to anyone wanting to listen to something different and addictive.
First released in October of 1999, Movin' Melodies was Andre Tanneberger's first album. His albums have only gotten better since then but I view this album as the must have from his collection.
The few songs on the album with lyrics can be thought of as somewhat repetitive. However, the repetitiveness of the lyrics within each song seems to flow well with the melodies and beats that accompany them so it does not detract from the overall feel of the song. All of the songs on this album have the same sort of sound, each put with different melodies and beats. Movin' Melodies provides a vast range of music from fast and upbeat songs like "9PM (Till I Come)" to the calm, soothing and melodious sounds of "Too Much Rain." Regardless of your preference, the infectious beats on this album make it a must have for any music lover's collection!
I do not know of any other trance artist out there with similar sounds to ATB but with his vast variety of music available, why look elsewhere? Another favorite album of mine would have to be Seven Years: 1998 - 2005 but as I mentioned earlier, all of his albums are great and worth checking out!

Alright, "9pm(Till I Come)" Was Pretty Good When It Was First Released, But Thats About All ATB Has Goin For Him. This Entire Album Is All Based Around That Annoying Little Twangy Guitar Sample Heard In....Well, All His Songs On This Album. What An Insult To True Fans Of Trance & Electronic Music. ATB Along With DJ Sammy, Darude, Lasgo, Ian Van Dahl, Alice Deejay ETC, ETC Made Trance A Dirty Word And For That Any True Fan Of Trance Should Boycott All These Fake Artists Music, And Welcome True Trance Talent Paul Van Dyk, Matt Darey, Tiesto, Cristopher Lawrence, and Others Back For Some Real, True, & Intelligent Music, Burn This Album!!!!

ATB is one of the most talented artists I have come across in a long time. His music is very differentiated and unique. Very listenable whether you are driving with your girlfriend, relaxing on the beach, sailing out on the deep blue, or just plain mellowing out on your sofa or favorite chair (not to mention moving sensually across the dance floor!). It is romantic, nostalgic, hot, cool, sexy, temperamental....AWESOME! I can't get enough of his music. Great music for all ages who enjoy fresh, experiential sounds that tease the imagination and tempt memories young and old alike. Take a trip...buy ATB music...and revisit your past while connecting with the future (I know...sounds weird...but it happens).

Simply amazing. Top #5 Trance CDs of all time. A must have!! There is only one song on here that I'm not crazy about. Not many lyrics, just moving melodies.
