CDs no trance addict should be without

Let the rest of the iVibes community know what really floats your boat. What artist albums or compilations do you think no true fan of trance should be without?

I'll get back with my list when I've compiled it. But the System F album - 'Out of the Blue' is a must!

I've been listening to: Way Out West - 'Way Out West' and Sasha - 'Involver' alot recently ... Worth a listen from anybody. Smile

I'd say no collection would be right without:

Trance Nation 2 & Paul van Dyk - The Politics Of Dancing

BT - ESCM (1997)
BT - Movement In Still Life (1999)
Chicane - Far From The Maddening Crowds (1997)

Cygnus X - Collected Works (2002)
DJ Tiësto - In My Memory (2002)
Jam & Spoon - Tripomatic Fairytales 2001 (Trance, 1993)

I know you guys are sick of hearing this, but A Trip in Trance 1 (mixed by Hiver & Hammer) is a very good mixed compilation. The flow is excellent, everything blends so well together it's amazing. Plus there's loads of good tunes (lots of soft morning trance) on it, so get this if you can!

BT - Emotional Technology

The pinnacle of esoteric sound manipulation fused with pop aesthetics. In other words, catchy tunes with cool fx. Not a single weak track if you approach it openly, such a diverse variety -- yet it all works together!

It's controversial for a reason! Very Happy

I'm a fan of the lot of the aforementioned too... great choices guys, keep it coming. I like retrospectives, compilations that cover "the best" of a given artist or the biggest hits of the last few years like those MOS ones.

Orbital - Work

is a landmark in EDM singles-making that fit into fine artist albums in the bigger picture.

Also,

Prodigy - Fat of the Land

'Nuff said. Cool

As far as Tiesto goes I reclon Just Be is a pretty poor album, apart from Traffic and Love Will Come Again which are awesome tracks. I much prefer his mix CDs like Summerbreeze.
