Search - Jimmy Van M :: Bedrock

Progressive, hypnotic and amazingly cool

"I saw Jimmy Van M open up for Sasha and Digweed and was absolutely blown away with his set. It was one of, if not the best trance performances I've ever had the priveledge of listening to.I bought this CD immediately afterwards and am happy to say that it captures what I saw live to a large extent. If you like progressive trance and want a good mix to groove to or just chill to, this one is highly recommended."

Good Trance

"This CD is veeeerrrry trancy. By that I mean, the selections are not meant for dancing, don't have highs and lows, and transitions are very smooth (the strongest aspect of this CD). At times you can't even tell when the current song ends and next song begins, which I think is talent that Jimmy Van M has mastered. The song selections are good and their genre falls somewhere between the 'dark' (downtempo) trance and progressive (electronic) trance. If you like this genre (like I do), then you'll enjoy this CD. Highly recommended!"

Excellent first disc

"This is a terrific double-disc which is very dark and might take a little getting used to. All the better, if it can touch a part of your ear which other DJ's have missed! This is too menacing to dance to and is better suited to late-night driving and relaxing. The first disc is definately stronger than the second, as other reviewers have noted. Don't expect any trancey highs - Jimmy's style is very dense jungle/house and less accessible."
