5 out of 5 stars Flawless.   November 16, 2008

Is it possible to start a whole new religion based on an audio cd? If so, this is the strongest contender to make it happen. Wonderful whispy female vocals, captivating synths. It is hard to ignore mr Van Buuren after this release. Not recommended for highway use! It will actually put you in a trance! Buy and enjoy. You can thank me later, at mass.


5 out of 5 stars Havent heard an album like this in a while   November 14, 2008

Ill start off by saying that i havent always been the biggest fan of Armin Van Buuren's ASOT (A State Of Trance) series. They always sounded kind of shallow or cheezy, and played more like a random compilation. I am more a fan of deeper progressive trance DJs that can tell a story with their track selection and mixing abilities, like Sasha, Digweed, Above and Beyond, and Markus Schulz. I will say that the ASOT series has gotten progressively better each year. Last year's 2007 ASOT was pretty good, but still didnt quite meet my expectations. His newest offering takes the series to a whole new level that the previous ones never seemed to quite reach. This ASOT is by far the best of the series. Armin's taste and mixing abilities have matured by leaps and bounds from his last ASOT. For once, he exceeded my expectations. CD1 is phenomenal from start to finish. I can honestly say i havent heard a CD that has held my undivided attention from start to finish since Markus Schulz Ibiza 2006 CD1. CD2 is also extremely good, but i prefer the 1st one personally. If you are a fan of Progressive trance, buy this album. You will not be disappointed.

You don't have to be a top dj in the world to put someone else's tracks on a cd and start selling it. All you need is a name and Armin finally has it. Soo now he is selling... almost as well as Tiesto does. Glad I didn't buy this one because ASOT 2007 was a complete waste of money.
Although, I have to say I like a few tracks here

Thomas Bronzwaer "Certitude"
Giuseppe Ottaviani "No More Alone"
Markus Schulz "The New World"

Here we go again. Another amazing mix by AVB. Nothing more, nothing less. Very similiar to his 2 hour set on November 1, 2008 Fabolous Festival Las Vegas. To hear this set on an incredible sound system makes it 100 times better! Thanks again AVB!

The soundtrack to Heaven.

(oh and thanks above for recognizing the completely off track listing) I know I'm crazy but not that crazy.
