Title: Not what you might expect
Product review: If you've come to William Orbit via Ferry Corsten, great. *But*, beware, do not expect more of the same. I mean, don't get me wrong the remix of 'Adagio is one of the most uplifting dance tunes of recent times... This CD is at the other end of the scale, but in genre and BPM terms, not quality.It shows through that William has spent much time and effort subtly recrafting classical tracks of yesteryear into chill-out soothers for the future.I must admitt that upon my first listen I dismissed it as being too 'light'. But further listens meant I began to uncover the subtle tapestry of what he's tried to create. For instance, I think Ludwig Beethoven himself would approve of the downbeat re-working of 'Triple Concerto'.Classical lovers may turn their nose up at this, dance nutters likewise. But if you're not adverse to a bit of genre meshing, then give this a try. Though not an all-time ambient classic it's definitely worth taking this trip.
