Product Description

Amazon.ca

A Swiss-born, Italian-raised pianist, Robert Miles serves up numbingly repetitive but lively sub-Moroder disco for 66 unrelenting minutes. While it may make Vangelis sound like Mozart by comparison on the home stereo, this is evidently sheer magic under the mirrorballs of Ibiza, Paris, and Scarborough. --Jeff Bateman

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT MELODIC TRANCE CD July 12 2004
Format:Audio CD
To those who seem to again misunderstand and mislabel this CD, shame on you! This is NOT a new age ONE TONE CD. I love the new age music and have many CD's in my collection that are absolutely beautiful. This CD is considered new age as well as melodic and trance music. It is beautiful all the way through. It is to be measured against all others for what melodic music with a beat should be. To the person who said maybe if they toned the beat down a bit or this or that, you are listening to the wrong CD and should have known by the classification that this is a TRANCE RHYTHM cd. It is not going to be made without the beats, and they do NOT distract from the music either. Some electronic music does get rappy and too much hop hop garbage but this is clearly not that. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! Anyone who does not see this should look at all the awards and other songs he has. This is a CD that needs to be FELT AND HEARD THROUGH THE EMOTIONS AND THE HEART! I feel sorry for anyone who does not understand that!

2.0 out of 5 stars Mind-numbing -- and NOT in the good way. Jun 1 2004
Format:Audio CD
I have listened to this disc many times, trying to find a comfort zone with it, but alas, I must surrender. After the first seven minutes of the CD have passed (and I admit to liking those first few minutes), the rest of the CD becomes nothing more to me than a thumping aural assault. Miles has some very interesting ideas musically, but they get lost behind the relentless hammering and it's easy to lose interest after a while. Perhaps if the volume of the beat was toned down just a little, I could give it another star or perhaps two. I can highly recommend it to dance to, but casual listening is apparently not what's intended with this disc. In summary, great musical ideas overwhelmed by the thump.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tell Me Fable... May 10 2004
Format:Audio CD
Robert Miles is one hell of a talented man, WOW...I wonder why this album only became famous years after it's release. ''Fable'' became a dance floor hit during in 98/99, the song was constantly played everywhere. It's hard to believe that this CD was originally released in 1996, while it sounds like it was produced years ahead of its release.

The style of music here is dance, moreover there are the piano tunes, which climb along with the beats making the song climax occasionally. In addition to that, you have lightly sedative vocals which mourn through most of the songs, giving them a dreamy mood, one of the female vocalists-- Maria Nayler has a incredible voice which sounds like a hybrid between Nina Persson's (From The Cardigans) and Madonna's voice-- imagine both voices merged in?...the result of that would definitely be pleasant-- and well that's what her voice sounds like. But also she isn't the only female vocalist included, 4 different vocalists are also along for the project.

This album takes you off to a dreamland, telling stories about the mystical and fantasy world, occasionally during the CD it starts to sounds a bit unnerving because some of the tracks feature the most unheard-of sound effects....they sound like they came from another world...- But Hey? that's the whole point of this CD.

My Favorite Tracks are: One And One, Children, Fable, Fanstasya, Red Zone.

This is definitely for fans of trance/house music. This man did a great job!. I also liked the production for the X-Files theme song...unfortunately that's not included here. But other then that-- ''Dreamland'' is a excellent masterpiece and definitely stands a testament to it's time...1996.

No doubt about it. This CD sold about a million copies in the US (but over 12 million copies in Europe). Sure some of the songs sound similar but that's a good thing. Read more
