Love this Timo Mass rendition. I have listened to it on repeat for hours.


You'll Either Love It or Hate It   March 9, 2004

This is definitely an album that you'll either love or totally hate. For me, it was the later. I find the never-ending repetitious beats obnoxious and incessantly uncreative. The only thing I found interesting in the least was "To Get Down" from which the words "What Goes Around" were changed to "Here Comes the Ram" for a series of Dodge truck TV commercials. It was interesting for a few seconds. I marvel at how one reviewer of this album remarked, nearly as soon as this album came out, "You can just see this one being used for various television soundtracks..." Obviously, he hit it on the money with a commercial at least. Personally, I think the techno riffs are at best decent for a low-budget Sci-Fi flick. There is much better music out there to blow your money on.

Especially to the one who said Oaky's cd was better, here's a little heads up, Oaky doesn't write his own tracks and if you had two bits of knowledge about electronica, (rather than what you gathered from somewhere) you'd know that.

Incidentally, I heard Timo Maas for the first time on an Oakenfold live mix set of Radio One in 1998, he was playing Ubik (The Dance) of which you'll find the breaks remix out (sadly no Techno remix :( like there was on the vinyl). Help Me, and To Get Down were out long before the album release, and had everyone in the world playing them. Funny enough, I've just gotten around to hearing the rest of the cd and it's definetly worth a listen just b/c it does NOT follow the normal 4/4 beat pattern (maybe time scale but definetly not a constant, consistent drum kick).

And also, my last attack is on the person who said Timo's drums needed help. My friend, he does not write trance; your saying that does no credit to your knowledge of the electronic genre. You might as well go back to calling all electronic techno. Everyone knows the greatest thing about "The Dance when it hit in 98' was the DRUM. I agree his remix of Azzida blew him up out the water in terms of popularity (catchy little bugger), but Ubik is in fact and in my opinion the hallmark of Timo. He's still keeping it real.


Not bad... really not bad   May 18, 2003

I'm not a fan of electronic music, DJs and stuff, but when I fisrt heard the single "Help me" on TV, I couldn't but be amazed. All in that song is fantastic, the beat, Kelis voice, the super-hero like vibes, all of it. So, I considered to buy it.

I gotta say that I didn't expect to like it much, I just wanted the record for the single, but I was surely surprised to find fresh, driving, exciting electronic sounds, that I had thought I'd never like in my life.

I really recommend this album, for me, Timo Maas is one of the most creative and original DJs of our time, and... well, this record rocks it real hard.

By the way, the art work for the album is so fantastic, the little girl on cover and the rest of the fotos are just so cool, perhaps it doesn't have much to do with the music, but the girl is lovely and just made me enjoy the record so much more.
