Advantages: Good value future trance from the masters
Disadvantages: CD2 is slightly repetitive

...review. The first four Gatecrasher albums were fantastic and since then I have purchased all the others without even a look at the play list because you are almost guaranteed class, all that aside, I can quite confidently say that digital trance is my favourite album for some time. Packaging: As with all Gatecrasher albums, the packaging and appearance of the CD plays a very important role. Obviously you don’t buy an album solely on its packaging ...
...mood. Overall: With the Gatecrasher club night ending, this might well be the final chapter in this fantastic collection of trance music for the future. I personally hope that they continue to release such stunning compilations but not too quickly because I’m running out of money. Not the best Gatecrasher but better than more recent editions and certainly a cut above others on the market especially if you are after future hits rather than current ... Read review

Advantages: Trance at its best!!!!!
Disadvantages: None really

...that the best years of Trance music have been and gone. Of course some people say that there are still some great tracks coming out, which is true, but the music just isn't like it used to be. This CD encompasses everything that used to be amazing about trance. When you could walk into a club, and be captured by the music playing. It played straight to your heart and flowed right through you. This is a CD that completely epitomises the genre. 2001 ...
...slightly more commercial side of trance music. These are the tracks that would be instantly recognisable to the majority of clubbers. These tracks would have been their staple diet each weekend. The second CD is far more progressive, and in my opinion it is a lot better. I like the edgy feel to it and the fact that it wasn't the same as your typical trance CDs of the time, as this CD really tried to do something a bit different. Ending the second ... Read review

Advantages: Great mixes, full length
Disadvantages: none

I have actually got Spiller "Groovejet (If This ain't Love)" single on vinyl. I bought it from HMV, in 2006 for about £3 brand new. It has two tracks on it; "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)-Extended Vocal Mix" with Sophie Ellis-Bextor 07:27 and "Groovejet-Solar Stone's Jet Groove Dub Mix". 05:55 It is essentially a DJ's copy but I play it myself. Two great mixes of this cult classic on Positiva recordings. It came out in 2000 and can still be ... Read review

Advantages: Great mixes, chilled, value for money
Disadvantages: Two weak tracks, nothing major.

This 2CD compilation by Jay Burnett is very, very good. CD1 is relatively poor compared to CD2, which is amazing. Alternative mixes of Dido, Spiller "Cry Baby", Motorcycle "When the rush comes". David Bowie vs Scumfrog appears with an excellent "Loving The Alien". "Janeiro" by Solid Sessions is so, so chilled and takes my mind to another dimension. Maybe there is two weak tracks on the album being Moony "Dove" and Kylie Minogue "Love At First ... Read review

Advantages: Chilled, collectable, cracking
Disadvantages: None, but increasingly hard to find.

In a nutshell, this is probably the greatest Euphoria of all time. From beginning to end, it is absolutely flawless! CD 2 perhaps having the edge over CD 1. I bought this for £7.5 of amazon second-hand. The sleeve however is not very secure so make sure you make copies of this if you by it. Not manufactured anymore this can be a cracking buy if under £10. "Seven Days and One Week" by BBE being so chilled. Also "Autumn Leaves" (English Version) ... Read review
