CD1 is a relaxing ambient cd. The ambient he serves us is quite deep and minimal. A lot of floating vibes, almost without beats at all. A lot of dark, mystic ambient. It gets almost too minimal and sleepy vibes for my taste sometimes, but we also get some pretty nice vibes here. CD 2 gives us full on from beginning to end. Most of the tracks we get here are not very melodic. Quite dark vibes in most of them. I missed some more variation and creativity in many of these tracks. Not many new ideas. Track 5 is my favourite here. Pretty intense and dark. Pure night time tracnce in most of the tracks.

It is a pretty interesting concept with this double CD release, where you get one cd with ambient for your relaxing moments, and one cd with full on party stompers. The ambient you get here is of the minimal kind, and the full on is a bit repetive and without many new ideas. I expected a bit more out of this release, but it deserves credits for a full pack....
