I'm honestly not familiar with the original pieces covered here but enjoyed them none the less... The Original Version of Adagio for Strings is beautiful. It sounds at once faithful to the classical genre but at the same time very modern. The Ferry Corsten remix of Adagio, on the other hand, is a tranced out version that is also beautiful, but more in a 2am on the dance floor way. The John Cage composition, In A Landscape, is much more recognizable as a William Orbit production if you're at all familiar with his earlier work under Strange Cargo or Torch Song. In A Landscape comes off as kind of light when held up against the two contrasting versions of Adagio... I've also heard 2 other tracks from his Pieces In A Modern Style full length due 2/1/00 and think it'll be a great album.

William Orbit, hated by me for his work with Madonna, has pulled a rabbit out of his hat with this song. Ferry Corsten, the GOD of trance, has worked his usual wonders and given this song the best remix I've ever heard.

Believe me, you haven't heard music until you hear this song. I can remember exactly where I was the first time I heard Corsten's remix back in September - I thought "Wow, what a fantastic song" and I stopped what I was doing to give it my full attention!

This is THE tune of 1999 - and will continue to be huge in 2000. This reached #4 on the UK charts, and that's fantastic!

I remember quite distinctly the first time I heard this song. I was sitting in my brothers volvo with some of his friends and I was simply blown away by this song. I was like thinking, who made this amazing song and where can I buy it. This has to be one of the best trance tracks ever made and it is a remix of Barbers adagio for strings. The intro is great and is a nice build up for the slow strings and then we get an amazing mix of electronica and the string section. I love the base line in the begining and the drum sound is also great. This is a great track to dance to and I feel myself moving in my seat even as I listen to right now. The sounds have been maticulously chosen and add a nice layer to an already great track. Then it slows done and we hear the strings and it is so serene and nice. Then we get an awesome mix of the strings and the electronic sounds. That can just be said to be tremendous and I think that Orbit has created a trance track for the ages. This is a one of a kind track. I love it so much.

in this single you can find the best house track that was ever made! the viberaitions are going throgh your body and giving you to fill like in heaven! TO the DJ's:have to have it!

Well this is the first song i have really payed attention to from William Orbit and I am converted to his music.

Orbit is original and his music is so refreshing i love this mix of classic style music mixed with his electronic sound.

I first heard the original of this music in the Vietnam War Film Platoon and William has taken this piece and transformed its emotional vibes for a new generation.

I am now looking for othe examples of his music that are as good. If anyone can inform me of these then please E-mail me haz@cheerful.com

Very Well done a must buy!
