This is a very solid trance album for people used to European Club music. I myself fell in love with Trance when I lived in Madrid and this is the first US album that I picked up that can match with the imported Ministry of Sound CDs that I have. If you are a fan of Clubbers Guide to 2002 or Ibiza National, this is a good CD that will not break the bank.

This is one of the best trance/dance/techno CDs I have purchased in a long time. On some days I don't feel complete until listening to just a couple of tracks. There are a vast variety of styles and sounds to give your mind a really swell 7 course meal!! (1) Robert Miles and (2) ATB are an excellent start for the feast and the rest are simply mouth watering!!! (3) Nilan & Kane give us a classic taste of old school (4) Faithless rises like uncontrollable yeast (5) Miss Jane privides that baby doll fire (6) Lustral delivers smooth diva style (7) Ayla -- simply classic trance (8) Luminaire's angelic vocals are mesmerizing...just wait for them!!! (9) Robin Fox -- simply classic trance (10) Angelmoon has perfect melodies (11) Foiri -- awesome voice breaks (12) Brainbug -- awesome ambient trance (13) Hypertrophy delivers climax trance (14) Mario Piu -- classic trance with great backgrounds (15) Olive -- perfect slow down for closing A must have for even the light trance fan!!

All the songs are good, but I especially like "It Is A Fine Day" by Miss Jane. I am also a fan of DJ Encore and Engelina, Ian Van Dahl, Darude, Amber, Madonna, Iio, and Linkin Park. I strongly recomend the album "Intuition" by DJ Encore and Engelina. That is my favorite CD of all time. My favorite song of all time is "Castles In The Sky" by Ian Van Dahl.

I thought that this cd represents the best of radio trance. It's not for the hardcore fans but more of a collection of great tunes that most people would know from the radio or videos. I love it!!!

I broke this CD at a party almost ten years ago and I have been searching for it ever since. The CD was worth the efforts to find it. Some of the clips do not do the songs justice and the CD is really, really worth the money. Get it and enjoy. Not just another compilation!!!

I like going to clubs and dancing, and this cd is full of that music that I like dancing to. If you are just looking for some fun dance music, then look no further. There is a ton of bass on this cd, which gives you that club feel. Give it a chance

This CD is about average. A few of the tracks are great, Children, You're not alone, Beautiful Day and the Flower Duet 99 is classic. Some of the other tracks just don't seem to fit on the CD. Still, I listen to it a lot, but tend to replay just a few tracks rather than the whole disc. Buy it used.

Let's face it, I like techno and alternative music. Unfortunately, these are broad genres. This CD contains mainstream tech-electronica, soft-edged, no fast-tempo drum-n-bass, and is highly listener-friendly. The vocals are mainly female on more than half the tracks if it has vocals: airy, slightly repetitive at times but not boring. I enjoy listening in the car, on my walkman, wherever...it's feel-good music for the techno-masses. An excellent selection for your "drive to home thru heavy traffic that wont give you road rage" collection.

Most of these you will probably hear at dance clubs, but i havent been to a dance club since "Little Fluffy Clouds" by Orb. If I was a DJ, Id play these or seek out alternative mixes of these songs.

though i enjoyed all of the songs on this cd, the duration of 11 of the songs were 4 minutes or less. i don't own any of these songs on different cds, but i have heard them in clubs and i prefer the duration of the song to be a lot longer. they could have cut a few of these songs out to find better mixes of the songs that were longer in duration. i agree with the person who wrote the review from Deerfield Beadh, FL.

A bit of Everything. This album is great. If you like trance this is it... Starting from the FIRST song to the end of the album..it creeps in and sucks you up into the rhythem and mood of this whole
*blissful* album...it just FLOWS... This is a must own... It's been a while since I had listened to this album since it was lost... thank God amazon had it..i been searching for it for a while now... I am going to buy it again without a doubt. Although this album does bring back a wave of memories one thing i can assure you..it's well worth it. It gets you into the feel of the EMOTION behind trance music.. songs like it's a beautiful day.. i love it when it feels this way..be prepared for a relaxing ESCAPE... Listen to it with an open mind.. it will relax you.. like i said in the begining, the very first song to the last...will be played in your ears and mind just like a beautiful story book with a perfect ending... go figure why the first song on this CD is called "Children." It is your responsibility to re access that inner child and come into contact with your innerself... this CD was like meditation to me...and I hope you get the chance to own a copy for this was the first CD album that had me and not only I loving trance music...

God bless.
