Various - 21st Century Trance

ronroer, Aug 13, 2005

I've had part 2 for some 3 years and it still is one of my favourites, so I had high hopes for this first one.
Now I got one from eBay and listened it through - and ended up being somewhat disappointed.
It's not bad, just... well, not as good as the second one.
Here are the two reasons:
1) There are 'fillers' in here; in 'part 2' there are virtually no filler tracks at all
2) Too many of the tracks here can be found on other compilations; 'part 2' only has a couple tracks that ended up on other compilations such as the trancemasters, the world of trance and Gary D's compilations, to name a few (and MIXED compilations aside).

Still, this compilation clearly stands out and there are a few rarities that make this an essential purchase, for instance Rapid Eye - Alderaan (OH remix).
But 'part 2' is still better.
