Free Music Notes for A State of Trance 2008Free Music Review: This CD IS THE BOMB compared to the JUNK and i mean JUNK he released before Hit: 5 Stars
Yes, finally the man has done it. Previous to this album the only good cd armin had was Imagine. I mean THATS IT. Everything else STUNK, PERIOD. To be perfectly honest I owned this cd digitally and a couple tracks off of the "Imagine" cd. So when I saw that my local cd store sold a state of trance 2007 I got pumped, bought it and was very VERY DISSAPOINTED. This CD HOWEVER IS THE BOMB! The mix is very very smooth compared to previous albums, and holds a very atmospheric mood to it. I enjoyed it very much. Buy it and make your year just a little bit better. Maybe even as a christmas present. Aside from a few seductively sounding tracks (roughly 2) it was very good cd.
Free Music Review: His best since State of Trance 2006 Hit: 5 Stars
Yeah, he finally did it again! Both discs are ridiculous they are so good. i always compare any Armin to his in the club 2006, to me that was his greatest mix he has ever produced so to have something even come close is amazing. I really dont know how other Dj's dont take a clue from him> i would say the closest thing to him is now Above & Beyond or Tiesto's ISOS vol 4 Latin America disc 2, which is the best he's ever produced in my opinion. I hope Armin keeps this up and knows why people are loving his mixes, cause i dont want him to go the oaky road and start making what sound like early 90's dance albums. Buy this...
Free Music Review: Flat fantastic!!!! Hit: 5 Stars
Wow - Elegant, edgy and very refined! State of Trance 2008 could be the perfect balance between tempo and content. Mr. Van Buuren is getting very serious about delivering an experience that moves into another realm allowing you to suspend thought and ride a trance audio vibe that is truly fresh. Aside from the volume of pure music (2 CD's) the quality of the content is flat fantastic. I own all of the State of Trance series and 2008 is the one CD I would grab on my way out the door of a house fire - Buy it!
Free Music Review: Great ASOT album Hit: 5 Stars
Big fan of AVB, the best edition of the series, BY FAR!!!
Track selection: 4.5 stars (out of 5)
Mixing: 5 stars (out of 5)
Only little a detail I didn't like, is that he did not bring any new stuff, meaning that 99% of the songs were "last week fav" from the weekly broadcast of ASOT, so I didn't got any surprise. The album is incredible is this great trance. I believe Tiestos ISOS7 and ASOT 08 are the best albums of 2008. AVB is in his prime.
Free Music Review: Best thing this year Hit: 5 Stars
This album is freaking amazing and is a borderline obsession. I've been listening to it everyday for over 2 weeks -- which is rare for me since I usually prefer to mix my music up. Anyway, I'm riding this for as long as it will take me. There's a lot of great music coming out lately (in multiple genres), but this is up there with the best of them all. I can only hope Armin's coming back to Austin soon - hint hint.
