Title: The hard trance album I've been searching for
Review: This CD is a perfect middle-ground between harder psy trance and the sometimes too delicate touch of the new progressive sound. PLEASE NOTE THAT I DISKLIKE THE ICU SESSION ONE ALBUM BUT ***LOVE*** THIS ONE - Approaching epic while angling away from anthem, Kimball Collins compiles and mixes an intense and truly satisfying set that is definately not cheezy.Collins does not screw around here - He wastes no time with fuzzy intros as "Imagination" lays down a thumping beat almost immediately - songs build and build and build, both in urgency and fullness and "Lost in Love" adds warm beauty towards the end.I was very pleased to see that Collins compiled the set, as some labels hand famous DJs a stack of records and a check. The track selection was tight and thoughtful - apparently some of these tracks are big in Europe but I haven't heard them on other CDs yet. So, in summary, this is a HARD, beautiful, well mixed and original set. A+
