    After seeing Ferry Corsten live at a club called ESCAPE in Amsterdam and also listening to him spin on Ministry of Sound Radio (www.ministryofsound.com)
    , I decided to check out this album. It is really good. I would highly recommend buying it. The... whole album flows. The last two songs are incredible. It is hard not to tap your foot or bob your head to the beat. If you like trance check it out. I also recommend anything by Paul Van Dyk and Trance Nation 2002 (mixed by Mr. Corsten). Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Global Trancemissions_02

  • All Music Guide

    Along with global trance phenomenon Tiesto, Ferry Corsten hails from the Netherlands. Both men are leading the current trance pack with a sound that is tough and rugged while still remaining ethereal and spacy. On Corsten's second mix CD for American heavyweight Moonshine, there is no dark and soulful progressive house to be found. While many of the U.K.'s top "trance" DJs have moved on to the deeper sound, Corsten stands behind the histrionic power of the arpeggio melody and endless drum rolls. The beats incessantly push forward at a steady 140 bpm while dirty analog sounds cut through the heavenly atmospherics. This is peak hours trance intensity. As is standard in trance, records are played for almost their entire length, making programming far more important than technical mixing. However, Corsten produced or remixed four of the 12 tracks, proving that he is more than just a fortunate poster boy, moving the faders across the mixer. This mix is everything that people love about tran...ce. It is also everything that others hate about it. No one's opinion will be turned in either direction after hearing this CD, but for those who do favor the trance sound, it is a strong mix that undoubtedly gets the blood pumping. - Joshua Glazer, All Music Guide Read more Less
