Análisis - Amazon.com
With material mined from Tangerine Dream albums Tyranny of Beauty, Rockoon, and Turn of the Tides, The Dream Mixes twists Tangerine Dream's prog-era work into appealing shapes of pulsing dance music. TD's warm, crisp electronic synth work fuses easily within a techno framework and comes out sounding better than much of the music on those earlier albums. Special cuts include those that capture TD's edgier work with sound clips, as in "Virtually Fields." "San Rocco Catwalk" puts the sensuous, fat raindrops of TD synth over hardcore beats that seize the body and send it into an all-night rave while "Change of the Gods" casts a sexy, dreamy spell with layered, percussive synth. This album masterfully wraps the great electronic experiments of Tangerine Dream around a '90s techno edge that'll leave your body yearning for more. --Karen Karleski

- If you like trance, techno, or new age, read on

This cd of remixed Tangerine Dream tracks is unique in that it doesn't seem to fit into any one existing musical genre. Although this really should be considered a strength, its "not this, not that" quality will probably cause many people to pass it by, which is too bad. Those who are seeking a traditionally atmospheric Tangerine Dream "new age" sound may find this music too funked-up and pounding; those who are looking for build-and-breaks progressive trance may find it too "new age ethereal." And those who are looking for something "techno" may find the entire sound too polished and melodic. However, if fans of ANY musical style(s) are willing to stretch their tastes just a bit (the "out of the box" cliche may apply here), there is much to appreciate in *The Dream Mixes*. This cd combines the musical creativity of Tangerine Dream with an upbeat, trancey feel, and the result is a fabulous sixty-seven minutes of music. Give it a try!

- Energy

I have about 25 TD CD's and this one is near the top of the heap. Energy is the word, and this CD delivers. I had it on my employers voice mail system as the 'on-hold-music' for about 6 weeks. It was removed after a few callers commented that it made them 'feel nervous.' This music is a testament to the depth and creativity of Edgar Froese, his son, and their crew. Great stuff.

- Tangerine Dream and techno: perfect combination

At first when I saw this CD, I thought that this was a CD of an accomplished group remixed by DJ's to get some quick recognition and a few extra dollars in their wallet. I hesitently bought it though and to my surprise this disc is remixed by Edgar and Jerome themselves! And the result is a pleasent surprise. It's not just a collection of well known tracks from the Miramar label with a techno beat added. They actually make an upbeat dancable music that still has that TD sound. Interestingly enough some might say a more vintage-modern TD sound. Included are 4 previously unreleased tracks. My favorite from those is "Virtually Fields", an adventurous track that upon listening, can make one imagine of strapping on the VR helmet, and taking a ride into the wild places your imagination can take you. TD have proven that they not only can keep up with the times, but still sound good doing it. Also worth getting is the Import Double CD version with the second CD fe! aturing radio edited tracks, new remixed tracks (my personal fav is the "Poison Byte" mix of "Touchwood" where they use a sample of Darth Vader saying "Power to the dark side!!!". And two new tracks ("Sojus" excellent track.)

- Great Workout tunes

I've always compiled my own workout music. Great beats and a smooth flow from one cut to the next are a must. I purchased this CD ona recomendation for just that purpose, a great solid background for working out. It is that in spades. Each and every cut is superb and I find it hard to believe I have a new favorite workout disk right off the shelf.

- A must have for any New Age or Ambient Techno fan!!

A perfect blend of techno beats, vintage TD analog synth sounds and ambient textures. Sophisticated production with catchy, easy to follow melodies. You'll probably hate it if you're big fan of old TD stuff, but I love this CD!! TD's best work to date!!
