5.0 out of 5 stars just buy it, April 15, 2001

This review is from: Awake (Audio CD)

Let me first say that i wasn't too familiar with George Acosta but I picked this CD up after i saw the reviews it got... and i was not let down. It is probably the best trance cd i have now in my collection which includes Oakenfold, Paul van Dyk, Digweed and Sasha. There honestly really isn't a bad track on the cd and check out "r2d2" and "child of the universe" especially. Acosta mixes pretty well and as far as some of the songs being overplayed, i could care less because it still sounds good. A really good cd to just play in the car or when chillin' at home or before going out. The progressive nature and energy of the tracks just hit you in that way that makes you want to listen to it again and again. I told a few of my friends to check it out and they loved it. Overall, i definitely suggest picking this one up, believe me if you like Oakey, you will not be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best CD in my collection, April 21, 2000

This review is from: Awake (Audio CD)

Of all the CDs I've listened to or purchased, Awake is easily my favorite. I know that the reviews on this website tend to use a lot of superlatives (which probably makes sense, since people are likely to be motivated enough to write a review only if they really liked or disliked the CD), but Awake is pretty unique, to my mind. I've never known a CD to inspire my friends to go out and purchase a copy of it with such zeal. Virtually everyone to whom I've recommended Awake has told me that it has become one of their most, if not the most, listened to CD. Acosta's mixes are amazing to dance to, but also melodious enough that they're extremely soothing when you want to mellow out. This is the only CD that I've felt strongly enough about to take the time to write a review for, and I would highly recommend at least giving it a once-over.

5.0 out of 5 stars Acosta's Masterpiece. Perfection., August 27, 2001

By 

Kevin (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Awake (Audio CD)

George has had 3 CD's released since this one (AM, PM, Trance Nation). This is his masterpiece. 'nuff said. I've made Acosta converts out of a few people here and there, any of his discs can do that, but Awake will probably remain as one of those classics that you will always remember and keep going back to. I have a pretty big collection, and I keep finding new discs that I claim as faves. But then I listen to Awake again and am I snapped back into reality. I've listened to this hundreds of times, and I am not tired of it. Track 11 is simply religious feeling. Angelfalls will blow your mind if you haven't heard it already. Gouryella and Don't Stop are timeless. Toca Me will just drive you....and I could keep going. Whether you are new to trance or not, this is an absolute must have for ANYBODY. I don't care if your favorite artist is Conway Twitty - you will connect with this. Buy or be left out!
