Delta (Space Grind Mix) - arranged by Gustav TaxénReview by Tas, 19/01/2003 The tune starts off magnificently with a slow build-up and fx, before slowly emerging into the classic Rob Hubbard track. The tune could be seperated into two pieces really, with the first part being the traditional like for like approach. The second part is where Gustav starts to experiment a bit using the delta theme as a template to work on using his own ideas.Both part are done exceptionally well, and with the diversity of the second part he manages to capture the audience and captivate it at the same time. A really good experiment into something a bit different here, and one that gets my thumbs up any day. |

Cauldron II (the Pumpkin Rides again) - arranged by A0d+BST+TronReview by Tas, 18/01/2003 Certainly a unique twist to couldron 2. a kind of spooky/dance tune with it's main lead being the spooky part and the back ground being very much trance-like.The concept is very good, and it's well applied. I suppose the tune may go on a bit and tends to get very boring after a while. More variety and changes of directions would have helped somewhat. The tune will certainly feel at home in a nightclub and would do well at a up and coming bitlive event. Good effort, more variety needed tho. |

Think Twice III (santa's got a new knob to tweak) - arranged by WobblerReview by Tas, 18/01/2003 A nice idea with some great background effects and a lovelly crisp clear sound. The main problem that lies with this remix is that the lead doesn't do it justice. You can easily imagine what Wobbler was attempting to do, but he's just fallen a little short with a lead instrument that doesn't quite hit the mark.The tune unfortunately is a little too repetative too, with not enough changes through out the piece to keep the interest levels up. All in all a good effort but just falls short on some aspects. |

Dark Side (Rethink) - arranged by MontyReview by Tas, 17/01/2003 Quite a mamoth tune coming in at over 6:40 mins. There are some great back ground sounds to this tune, and the blend of bassey sounds and high end sounds make for a listening pleasure.The tune is both varied and well thought out throughout the piece. The remix has more than a touch of jarre feeling, but adds much more so to not leave non jarre fans out! I suppose the only let down to this track is that the main lead doesn't offer a great deal, and by and large remains the same throughout and also doesn't quite fulfill the beautiful ambiance of the background. All said and done, this really is a mamoth tune, which I liked alot! good work! |

Flight Path 737 - arranged by Tim ForsythReview by Tas, 17/01/2003 The remix of Flight path 737 reminds me of a cheesy late 70's early 80's fererro roche advert. I'm not saying because of this it's a poor remix, cos in all truth it's very well performed with some excellent choices of instruments, and above all it ooses emotion.tho, the tune is basic, it's perfectly orchestrated proving without a shadow of doubt that you don't have to over complicate matters to bring out a damn fine piece of work. |
