 This album is awesome! July 21, 2006

I would pick this one up first if you are new to Tiesto. Much better than ISOS LA. It's almost symphonic and trance oriented in the same mix.

This is just a great album!
A must buy if you are a Tiesto fan, trance lover, but I don't know about those that are just starting to listening to trance.
This album came out in 2001 and during that time I didn't listen to trance so I don't know if this was hot during that time. I am the guy that likes my trance hard and loud most of the time, and when I don't want to listen to that I'll listen to some smooth trance from ISOS3.
All I have to say is now I agree with the world. I wasn't very happy about Dj Tiesto being #1 Dj but now I see that this Dj has been mixing some good music for years now and deserves the number one shot.
This isn't club music and barely any vocals on it. This album won't give the true feeling of trance the "journey off to another world".
This is just some good trance but I must say the first couple of minutes were terrible. For those that got this and listened to it and took it out from your CD players should know that it gets way better later into the album.
But I must also agree this isn't that much of a great album cause he still had to learn much more to be a great trance mixer that he is now.
Now this is what I expect in my mixes (and I don't care who is mixing nor what is the mood of the album):
1.) At least 3 songs that will be appealing to me making the album worth a spin.
2.) Not be lost during the mix (meaning one song is clubbing music then the other is suddenly some weird trance song that can't be danced to)
3.) All songs to have a feeling as one (perfect examples are ISOS3, ASOT 2005, Magik 4.
That all I ask in my mixes and Tiesto does a good job one doing that in this album except for the third one which is a very important thing.
For me all the tracks in the album were in their own class.
Here I'll try to explain myself better.
In Magik 6 Dj Tiesto did a great job on having the people dance till the beginning to the end. But the album for me wasn't great just cause each track was good it was a great album cause he made all the tracks feel as one big adventure. His mixing skills were flawless in that album but in this album he didn't do that well, he just tried to put a song after the other by doing that the listener couldn't experience to the mixing sensation.
Also I think I am just being nice to Tiesto on giving him 3 stars cause all this guy did was mix them, I should be giving the producers the 3 stars for making the good trance music.
Verdict: 2.9 out of 5.0 Great trance except for the first couple of songs and also this was the beginning to Dj Tiesto transformation to becoming the top Dj of what he is now. Great stuff! Buy it if you like ASOT 2005 or want to hear to "the prequel" to Magik 6.

This is simply a classic Tiesto production. Beautifully crafted with the utmost attention paid to the melding of one track to the next. This is a flippin' clinic for trance dj's aspiring for greatness. Tiesto is frankly the Illest dj in the world and i honestly don't see a changing of the guard anyime soon. This cd is for real...(even if you lose touch with reality over the course of it's dissemination). After all, (this is a trip mind you), you will return to earth surely appreciative. More trance appropriation of Tiesto fascination in the nation. With or without self medication. SEA-YAS BINNESS FO SHO.
hint: It's the polar opposite of "out of order"

Dont get me wrong, Dj Tiesto is the leading dj out there. With the most relaxing yet mind racing productions. But this is my least favorite cd he's put out. Possibly one or two tracks here that could exite you but if you want to catch a drift of what he's about I have some other suggestions for you. The entire trilogy of ISOS. It will take you through emotions you were un-aware of, and back.
