5.0 out of 5 stars Aural Crucifiction..., February 13, 2005

By

This review is from: Magik 5: Heaven Beyond (Audio CD)

The ancient greeks believed that everything on the physical earth was a reflection of a perfect form for that object, that was untangible but existent. And there is alot of trance albums floating around. This CD is close - and i mean DAMN close- to being that perfect expression of trance beyond reality.

This Album exists in a state higher than most trance. It encompasses all the aspects of classic trance- soaring atmoshperics, rolling snares, swelling beats. But the presentation is outstanding, and nearly each track lifts the listener higher and higher up an electronic ladder that reaches to the heavens. It reaches unconquerable heights.

There are 2 tracks that seem out of place here... They are pretty much the only thing keeping this album from being perfect. Track 12 and 13 are odd, annoying nu-house songs that only temporarily break the spell on this album. Whether intentionally or not, Tiesto put these 2 tracks together. And so, it's just as easy as pressing skip twice. Then you're back to trance nirvana.

This CD will make you itch if you use headphones. The power of the sound, the swelling energy that exists almost always in a perfect harmony between uplifting, edginess, and calm expression of deep thought. This music should be blasted from speakers into a field, and throw away those f*cking lightsticks- cuz you're gonna dance.

"Tiesto is a genius" is an understatement. Ladies and gentlemen, this is trance.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Magik, April 2, 2005

Usually when I first buy a CD (especially mix albums) I like to just scan through to get an idea of the tracks I would like. This time was different. Basically, I listened to the entire album nonstop. Only a couple exceptions: Tracks 12 and 13 didn't really catch my attention and seemed a little out of place with other such outstanding songs. Other than that, I have no other complaints about this album and remains my favorite Magik of them all. It even includes my favorite trance song of all time: Alone in the Dark by Airwave.

This is high quality electronica from one of the best DJs out there and I would recommend it to any fan of trance.

This CD rocks my world. You'd swear these songs were made for this mix. Also, most of the songs haven't been played out on twenty other CD's (yet). Try Tiesto Live at Innercity first. If you like, you'll want more. Here is the song list:

01 DJ Tiesto & Armin van Burren Present Alibi - Eternity (Innercity mix) 02 Allure - No More Tears 03 Kamaya Painters - Cryptonesia 04 Atlantis - Fiji 05 Twilight - Platina (Mauris Paardekoper Remix) 06 Eve - Riser 07 Fire & Ice - Neverending Melody 08 Yahel - Open Your Mind (Magikal Remake) 09 Airwave - Alone in the Dark 10 Chant - Sweet Images (DJ Sakin & Friends Remix) 11 Deniro - State of Mind 12 DJ Merlyn - Krass 13 Mario Piu (DJ Arabesque) - Serendipity (Mas mix) 14 Oliver Lieb - Subraumstimulation (Main mix) 15 Trans - Supernova 16 Rank 1 - Airwave
