This CD gave off a good impession on me. I never would have thought that I would find a CD that had 1st Transmission on it! There is also another rare track like Cambodia. Superstring,Suburban Train,Blood Is Pumpin',The Dance Valley Theme and 10 In 01 are remixed well!

As you can see I like basically all of them.

I am a major fan of St.John. His newest installment of his up and coming Progressions Into Trance series is surely a hit in my book. He tears up the turntables with more than explosive tracks that will set your system on fire. Like his first, #2 is definately worth listening to. I'm usually picky on what tracks I listen to on some CD's but on this one I let it play from beginning to the end. What a rush!

I had never heard of St John before I bought this CD, but after having bought this CD and listening to it I can honestly say that this dj has got my attention. You can tell that St. John likes high energy trance tracks as all of these tracks will want you to get on the dance floor. St John's mixing of track 6 into track 7 is perfect. Into Space by Plaything is definitely a standout track of this cd. It's as happy and high energy as you can get, and if it doesn't want to get you on the dancefloor then I'm sorry but you need professional help. I'm not going say that I think St John is the best dj on the planet, because that title goes to sasha, and this is the only time that I have heard him. It could only be a fluke. I don't know yet. All that I do know is that St John put one hell of a compilation of trance tracks together, and that I'm definitely buying his next cd that he releases. Another great thing about this cd is that it's not an import. Who says that America can't put out a great trance album? Buy this and you won't be saying that again.

Great CD. I absolutely loved St. John's first Progressions into Trance and still listen to it. Number 2 ups the ante bigtime!

Here's what the inside sleeve of CD says:

The 2nd CD in an ongoing series, this disc mixes some of the biggest, current trance tracks with new soon to be anthems. St. John brings to the compilation an energy and excitement unique to the clubs and underground scene and brings this sound to a whole new level.

Will eagerly await compilation #3!

St. John did a great job on this CD. I live in the San Francisco bay area (San Jose) and am lucky to hear St. John mix on 94.9 every once in a while. (Keep it up St John! Don't stop doin that thang you do!) He always plays the best and newest club anthems and he managed to get some awesome tracks onto this CD from some of my favorite artists such as System F, Mauro Picotto, Pulsedriver, and DJ Tiesto. Flawless mixing keeps this CD moving from one great track to another.

My favorite tracks are:
"Superstring" by Cygnus X (Rank 1 Remix) a great club anthem with pounding drums and great synths. (yeah I know that pretty much describes every great trance club anthem. So sue me!)

"Into Space" by Plaything (Public Domain Mix)A very "happy", energy filled trance track which makes me yearn for a packed dance floor (such as Pleasuredome!).

"Suburban Train" by DJ Tiesto (Original Mix) It reminds me of DJ Tiesto's remix of "Silence" by Delerium. Maybe that's why I like this song so much.

The only track I don't care for is the first one "Hide U" by Kosheen. It's neither here nor there for me but I always end up skipping it. I don't let that stop me from enjoying the rest of the CD though. Great stuff!
