A new album for the German-duo is a great opportunity to get in my running gear, armed with my iPod, and go for a nice run accompanied by a light rain and a breeze.
Symphonix are one of the leading acts in the trance scene, after playing to endless number of dancefloors.
This album comes out 2 years after the last remix albums, and the expectations are high!
The album opens with the Trip Away. An average Progressive trance track. But at least my worries are gone. They still make Progressive trance :-)
System Float is the next track, and is defiantly one of my favorites in this album. Hypnotic with building energy. Psychedelic at its best !!
Next 4 tracks are Smoking Ace, Floating Mirror, Freq Box, Freaking Out
They all sounds pretty much the same to me. Groovy progressive baselines, some highlights but mostly repetitive sound from old tracks.
The general feeling at this point is that the album is stuck, and not going anywhere....
But then comes The Good old Times the 7th piece in this album is the point where the smile takes over. A great title for this track that feels like a journey from the past with the exact touch of present sound. probably the best track in this album!
Home Sweet Home is another masterpiece. Massive dancefloor tune.
Resting Voltage is a very interesting track. Solid build with an electrical atmosphere. Every time i listen to this track I'm surprised how good it is.
The last track on this Album is Miles to Go which has a more electro feel to it but has the exact amount of psycedelica needed.
To conclude, this is a great album by Symphonix. Some of the tracks are more average but the good tracks in this album are top notch !!
