The Ultimate In High Energy Trance! July 6, 2006

This is the first mix by George Acosta I've bought, and it won't be the last.
Unlike most of the DJs I like (Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Paul Van Dyk), Acosta takes the energy to almost unbearable heights. The tempo used here is higher, the music used is much denser, and Acosta mixes so that the music stays in your face throughout the entire set. This is why George Acosta is the most refreshing DJ around.
The amazing thing about this mix is that all of the greatest elements in trance are here. Although vocals have the least powerful presence here, the ones used are expressive of what the best trance has to offer (besides Born Slippy, which has an odd vocal track in spite of being a good song). From beginning to end Acosta does not let up!
Acosta opens the mix up strong with Amor De Dios. He adds a cool "Lost World" sample over the introduction that is likely to give most listeners chills or goosebumps.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T., Purple Sky, and the Alex M.O.R.P.H. Remix of Vision '05 are amazing anthem trance songs unlike anything I've heard prior to this mix. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. puts you on another planet with its alien melody. I cannot imagine hearing this song in the club... it would be too insane. These songs will pump you up without a doubt. Purple Sky always spikes my creativity on late night drives. Its build and melody always take me to another world. Vision '05 has a repeating, warping melody that amazes me every time.
Some songs on the mix aren't insanely high energy. However, they are dreamlike. The MdG Mix of Asarja by Micro De Govia and Ronski Speed is unbelievable. It's one of the best tracks on the mix. It has a beautiful vocal track and an awesome island time-out with an amazing break-beat. Born Slippy is an impressive song with a vocal track, but I imagine that some will not like the vocal. Honestly, the song is really good. It's not as good of a vocal track as Center with Jon Secada, and it's definitely not as good as the remix of Signum's Come Around Again or Acosta's own remix of I Want You.
I Want You features one of the coolest guitar riffs that I've heard in a trance song, and the beat manipulation near the end of the song is great. The vocal manipulation is stellar. George Acosta's Center ends the album elegantly with Secada's soothing voice and a slow, comforting fade-out. The Dj Danjo & Rob Styles Remix of Come Around Again is the vocal star of the mix. The original mix of this song is classic and so is this remix. This is as good as high energy vocal trance gets. The build will leave you baffled to the point of joyous confusion. The climax is so intense! This is fantastic trance.
The Climax 69 Remix of Reincarnation along with Hennes & Cold's Born Blind lead up to the mesmerizing SI-N+R-JE elegantly. Super8's Cre8 is another fantastic song. Really, every song on this mix is great. There's only one song left to cover then.
Kompressor's Green Martian Remix of Black Onyx is the barn burning, no holds barred, insanely high energy trance masterpiece of this mix. WOW!!! This song... I won't even give it away to anyone who hasn't heard it. Let's just say that the best trance songs tend to have the best builds. This song is one of the best. Thank you Kompressor and George Acosta!
I'd like to note that there are a few flaws in the recording of the mix. Other reviewers have pointed out exactly where these glitches are, so I won't. While only one is long enough to be distracting, none of them are really annoying. They didn't ruin the experience for me.
Georga Acosta's Lost World is easily one of the best trance mixes of 2005. You're not going to find a trance mix like this from any other DJs. This, like the best trance mixes, is a straight through listen.
The Lost World is essential trance! Buy it now.
George Acosta at his best!! January 19, 2006
DefiledHorror (Tulsa, Oklahoma)
"The Lost World" is George at his best! "The Lost World" is nearly perfect from track to track, and definitely shows why George is the Trance Master. Some stand out tracks are: Kompressor, Kyra Vs. Velez, Mindcrusher, and Woody Van Eyden. George's own "Center" with Jon Secada is awesome, and I look forward to their future work together. I would say "The Lost World, "Touched," and "Miami" CD2 are George Acosta's best releases, but every single CD(s) he's put out have been excellent! If you haven't already, definitely purchase "The Lost World"! Probably the best Trance mix of 2005!!
 What happened George? December 30, 2005

What happened George Acosta? What happened to that feeling that was in Awake?
People saying that this is the best Trance album of 2005 are full of it.
And saying that Black Onyx is the best track on here? Ha! That has to be the worst track on here! This track has no melody...just an UGLY repetitive synth that's more annoying than pleasing.
Nothing was memorable in this CD...just a bunch of boring anthems that are easily forgettable. Not even the classic "Born Slippy" could save this.
Although this album isn't terrible...it is defintely NOT the best Trance album of 2005
Please...do not listen to these reviewers...they are only trying to trick you into buying this mediocre album or they just have bad taste in Trance music.
