yay de hey batman
ok so for me this was a good expereince. I found what I was looking for. I like quality trance, not too tecno not too hard fast or slow. Has to have the right ingredients in the correct proportions and that is what I found. If I was me again id just have no douts and buy every album produced by anjunabeats. There simple!!!! Go try these tracks and see what you think.
Track 14 shapes on the vol. 5 album, like that? then try track 5 vol 4. Thought youd like it, how about track 3 Time to die off the best of anjunabeats trance02 or maybe truth is their just thouroughly complete albums so enjoy!

pure musical genius!
This album is a phenominal fusion of electronic music primarily derived from melodic euphoric trance, for me this is the best trance (if not electronca) compilation to date!! no trance fan can possibly be under enthused by this masterpiece. Not that i expected anything less from this world leading lable!

Goosebumps
This is an incredible compilation that showcases the talent of one of dance music's most talented trios. Label heads, composers, producers...Above and Beyond have raised the bar and returned a welcome and long overdue credibility, quality and excitement to the club experience. Sublime.

Its got everything!!!
The first half of the album passes you buy without much of a thought, saying that it is very good but not typical above and beyond - more an experimental mix of electro and funky house. Very pleasent on the ears but not exactly face melting piano/synthesizer solos that send your body into euphoric overload. The second part of the album, however, IS typical A&B. In a way its as if the whole album is one big build up to firework display style finale. It works. One comment is that i'd still rather listen to Anjunabeats Melodic Trance 3, there are small patches of 'come on - hurry up and do something' with Vol 5.

A wonderful mix of melodic beats and uplifting wonders!
This album is easily my favourite of the year. Above & Beyond have mixed together some absolute gems of Trance music. CD1 is the perfect build-up, with some funky tunes like Battery Life and Michael Cassette's groovy "Zeppelin". The final track of CD1 "Good for Me" by A&B sets the tone for CD2, which is just one melodic tune after another. Particular stand-outs for me are "Home", "Make Me Believe" and "Nimbus" by the very talented Oliver Smith. If you want a fantastic album, then get this! You WILL not be dissapointed!

superb
this album is one of the best complinations i have ever heard. there is not one average tune on there, they are all amazing, some of the best includes everything on here by above and beyond ( especially the spine tingling good for me), needs to feel by super 8 & tab, spacelift by jaytech, amnesia by nitrous oxide. YOU MUST BUY THIS ALBUM, ITS PRICELESS!!!

sell the ep's not compilations!
Records: sell them individually. Who wants to take a chance on buying a mix compilation according to other peoples taste. Personally half the reviews posted on I Tunes are completly misleading. Know a track. Know a compilation before buying. Never do so according to other peoples required tastes!

Who says Trance is dead?!
Some of these may be updated versions of old classics (Razorfish for example) but this is a class album, it raises your spirits up no end!!
2007-08-05
Not to be missed! One of the best
If you know these guys you know what's coming. An absulute stunin compilation one of the best in years. If the stresses of life is getting you down and need a top up look no further than this beautiful selected compilation.

The Best Dance Album Out Today
This album from Above & Beyond is amazing, every track is so good that it takes your breath away. This is one of the best albums I have liked this year. Since there isn't many good dance albums at the moment this album will keep you Funky Grooves going until new ones come out.
2007-06-09
Excellent
One listen and you'll want to listen again and again and again......really superb

One Word | AMAZING
iTunes is getting better with it's choice of Ministry of Sound and other big tracks.
I recommend you buy this track as it will more than get you ready for going out at the wkend and no doubt you will still think it's great in 2008.
Living it large!!!!!

Above & Beyond
Boring rubbish, I felt very disappointed as the preview sounded ok.

Words can't describe this compilation!
I thought Tiesto's "In Search Of Sunrise 5" was the best compilation I've bought in the past few years, but this has absolutely blown me away. There is such a diverse range of songs here and some of them send shivers down my spine, whislt others make you want to rave to hell and back. I can't describe how good this CD is, but anyone who loves the modern trance scene will honestly love this!
2007-05-23
Awesome album
I'm only new to their stuff but Above & Beyond rock. The first disc is really proggy-electro trance and then it spins off into some really amazing trance beats. I don't like trance but i like Anjunabeats!
2007-05-22

2007-05-22
