Pretty bad...

"Well this is probably Nick Warren's worst work. It is a dull and trite mix of electronic beats. Just 2 moments are rememberable, both in CD1- The opening 2 minutes that gets your hopes up real high, and the track where you hear the girl laughing.

There is another superstar album out though, Sasha's Invol2ver (Involver 2). That is epic."

Frustrating

"I had such high hopes for this release. I like Nick Warren. I like the Way Out West stuff. I liked his Amsterdam GU set, the others had their moments ... so I really hoped this would be his "Sasha in Ibiza" moment.



Well ... It seems like this set is all build-up and no release. There are tracks that just about get you there and just when you think there is gonna be some glorious bassline breakdown and shimmering silver throw-your-hands-up-in-the-air moment it goes nowhere but into another tease track that sets the stage for another moment when you think all hell's gonna break loose and ... get ready ... it's just around the corner ..... another build-up kind of track.



The beat is right. The bass is right. The trippy electronic flourishes are right. Oh man, it is so close, so close .... but it never really arrives.



Frustrating!"
