Free Music Review: a 5 stars album destined to become another classic to PvD fans
Hit: 5 Stars

I am already in love with PvDs new album In Between. Ive been waiting for his new project since his last artist solo album (Reflections) and I couldnt be more happier with it. Just as they announced it, this new album is indeed more comercial than his past releases but that doesnt mean at all this new work isnt marvelous: its impactante! Haunted is a great opener album that creates the mood for it, followed for the hit single White Lies (sort of the L.A.X mix available on its single version and vinyl). From track 3rd and beyond its all upbeats, colored by his sweet melodic sounds and production. Once you get by the track "Far Away" you are already hipnotized by its sound and youre just in the middle of the record! Definately just what I expected from PvD. Favorite tracks so far: Haunted, White Lies, Get back, Far away, Stormy skies, NYC & Let Go.

Btw, this isnt Politics of Dancing part 3 at all. This isnt a mixing album. This is PvD as a artist, producing AND mixing. Definately a good follower to his grammy award nominated album Reflections.

ps. Ive got both Elements of Life from Tiesto and In Between from PvD. I love both artists to death. However, Ive got clicked by In Between right away & on my first listen to the whole album. That didnt happened to me with Elements of Life, which took me around 1 month to start to like it and finally love it. You do the match and decide by yourself ;)

EDIT: Theres a special edition of this record that contains a track (World in my eyes) with vocals by PvD himself! Definately worth it. Get it if u can! This is the standard track list for it:

White Lies Berlin [Vocal Mix by Paul van Dyk & Alex M.O.R.P.H.]
Détournement (original version)
The Big Bang
Torn
World In My Eyes [Vocals by Paul van Dyk]
White Lies [Count Mix]
Taking The Long Way
Love Is What We Fear

Can In between get better than this!!? Im amazed by the quality of it all. Definately didnt expected it to be THIS good.

In Between Poster

The world's #1 DJ Paul van Dyk is back with IN BETWEEN, a dynamic new effort that spotlights his incredible talent as a producer and recording artist. The album features a wide range of collaborations including David Byrne (Talking Heads), Jessica Sutta (Pussycat Dolls), Ashley Tomberlin (Luminary), Alex M.O.R.P.H, Lo Fi Sugar, Rea Garvey (Reamonn), Ryan Merchant and Wayne Jackson. Paul van Dyk received a Grammy nomination in 2005 for Best Dance/Electronic Album for his original album "Reflections" - this marked the first time NARAS recognized this category. His original productions from "Reflections" have been licensed for major television commercials, such as Motorola, Land Rover and most recently for Jeep.

It's 2007 and trance has been left for dead. Pop swooped in and cherry-picked the genre's egalitarian appeal, repackaged it, and squeezed the whole thing dry. Meanwhile its other flank was shredded by dance music itself and its brutally dynamic nature, evolving and expanding and making the genre seem simple-minded--or worse, irrelevant. In response, Paul Van Dyk has spent the last several years concocting In Between, which, as its name implies, is an attempt to find a sweet spot connecting the progressive sweep of past efforts like Seven Ways and his own long-simmering commercial instincts. At least as gifted in the studio as he is on the decks, Van Dyk's record glitters with production depth and a veteran's panache. Guest vocalist Lo-Fi Sugar helps turn the lead track "Haunted" into a delightful shimmer, and for a moment we think he might spring an ambient record on us. But that notion is cleanly dismissed by the chunky synths of the electro-house excursion "White Lies," and from there, the DJ attempts with limited success to stuff the usual peaks and valleys into the tight confines of pop songs. He occasionally succeeds: "New York City" is especially good fun, as Van Dyk puts a siren sample in the background that'll have you reaching for your license and registration. But he's squeezed 17 tracks onto this single-disc release, and you can feel the struggle to sustain momentum--shorter tracks like "Talk in Grey" (featuring Ryan Merchant) end just as they might genuinely take off. Nothing sinks in with any depth. Van Dyk is a master practitioner and his efforts to evolve are laudable, but on In Between, his determination to cross over into pop too often mutes his more progressive and compelling instincts. --Matthew Cooke
