Good album with the odd weak link

Advantages: Some Top Tracks, Good Flow
Disadvantages: A Few Weak Links

As a massive Trance fan, Van Buuren specifically it is amazing that it took me so long to buy this album. I only purchased it a few months ago when I spotted it in HMV. £8 very well spent to say the least! The album has a good flow to it, starting with the beautiful 'Wall of sound' featuring Justine Suissa through to the absolutely immense title track 'Shivers'. In my opinion the best track on the album is 'Bounce back' which is done in colaboration ...
...the fantastic 'Mexico Can Wait' - one of the best trance tracks of 2007). Unfortunately compared to Armins other work there are 1 or 2 tracks on this album that are not quite at his usual standard, 'Golddigger' is one that springs to mind. In conclusion - I dont rate this as highly as the new 'Imagine' album but it is still very good and worth buying. ...

Good Album, although a bit 'fluffy'

Advantages: Very good flow, some top tracks
Disadvantages: Very vocal (Even for Armin)

...off with the title track Imagine and going into 'Going Wrong' which is going to be massive this summer, all the way through the the beautiful 'Intricacy' at the end. It is a big shame that 'If You Should Go' IMO the best track he has produced since Shivers is not on the album. This is a suprise as Armin started playing the track around the same time he started promoting the album. The only other detremental thing I would say about the album is ...

armin

Advantages: armin, trance tracks, nice range of memories
Disadvantages: doesnt do ASOT justic

As a ture ASOT & armin van buuren fan of course this was on my purchase list. ASOT radio shows tend to be the main highlight of my weeks and i am a frequent listener seeing some of the top tunes of the year on the cd was pleasing however, i wouldn't go crazy to get my hands on this better off listening to armin weekly! the cd has definatly missed some of the best tracks from later on in 2007 but this is nicely packed with good tunes from the early ...

The "Miles_Gurtu" experiment

Advantages: A blend of intricate beats, varied jazzy melodies and experimental soundscapes.
Disadvantages: Over-tweaking disrupts the ambience occasionally. No mainstream appeal. Some tracks don't work.

Take a Swiss-Italian ambient trance producer (Robert Miles) and blend together with an Indian percussionist (Trilok Gurtu). Add other talented musicians to the mix and allow to simmer gently, making sure you season generously with electronic sculpting and processing. The resulting album is an interesting fusion of acoustic instruments, electronic processed sounds, intricate beats, jazz and experimental soundscapes. Released in 2004, “MilesGurtu” ...
...the dream trance that he became famous for. It builds on his previous album “Organik” (released in 2001), which was his first attempt at creating an experimental sound. This album is characterised by being completely instrumental although 3 tracks feature vocal samples. Double bass, strings, guitar and rhodes performances feature frequently, creating delicate melodies whilst complex beats are generated from drums and tabla. Many tracks shift and ...
