Guest psychedelia80[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted June 4, 2000 Share Posted June 4, 2000 Element - Transform Artist: Element Title: Transform Label: Global Trance Network Date: 2000 Track listing: 01. 8'16" Willkommen 02. 8'12" Believe 03. 8'05" Transform 04. 9'35" Akasha 05. 9'22" The Crow 06. 9'49" Jesus 07. 8'10" Soul Crusher 08. 9'01" Feel Review: This is a quiet good album, not my favourite of the year, but still very good. It´s hard and sooo nice to dance to, hard bouncing beats. My favorite track is nr 5. The Crow, this is a quality track, super nice melodies and hard beating drums. I´ll give the album a 8/10 though, because of the nice drums, and the feeling when u dance to this album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ktaadn Posted July 12, 2000 Share Posted July 12, 2000 I can't say I've heard much about Element, but after hearing Anti spin "Akasha" I was pretty hooked. They've nailed down a sound that is essential to any psy-trance party. You know that time where the darker music must give way to the lighter songs as the sun is coming up? Element have created some brilliant transitional music for exactly this time. Hard, crunchy beats connect with deep, bass-heavy grooves. There ARE melodies, but not the sticky-sweet melodies of morning music. Quality tracks abound. "Akasha" and "Jesus" have stood out for me so far. Ever been to a party that was so amazing that you wish the sun would never come up? Well, if you do get your wish Element has created the soundtrack. A fine release...7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest casey from vegas Posted August 30, 2000 Share Posted August 30, 2000 Very strong release, German rhythms at thier best. I would love to see these guys live, pounding it out behind thier tall gear stacks. For the slower psy-trance BPMS (128-135) this is a goldmine.

Guest Acidhive Posted September 23, 2000 Share Posted September 23, 2000 Totally agree with you here, Casey. This is EXCELLENT. One of the better new Goa groups in my humble opinion. From the excellent synths in that opening track Willkommen to the beautiful outro Feel, this rocks!! Dare I say 9 here??? Sure.... It's that good, you know!

GaySatanicHippie Posted October 23, 2000 Share Posted October 23, 2000 Yeah, this album is awesome, and they are very good live, too.At the lovefield festival in Germany they played Sunday morning at 12pm, and until then the party never really got going, even though Sangeet and Mark Allen played. But when Element came on it exploded and from then on until 7pm at night the party was excellent, all thanks to Element. One of the best live acts i have seen and one of my favourite albums. Especially for those morning hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Per Sterud Posted January 17, 2001 Share Posted January 17, 2001 Surprised to find so few reviews here. Element's Transform is a classic. Hard-hitting, concise and original yet tasteful. Hard to say otherwise why it's so good, but whatever they did they got a bullseye. 9/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mark G Posted February 6, 2001 Share Posted February 6, 2001 Heard it today @ a record shop, I love Akasha -I bought the single on vinyl & it rocks; the B-Side of akasha should be on the album. Half the album is a little light for what I usually spend money on, but the other half was brilliant; Morning music if I ever heard it, I am considering buying it, but it won't be for a while, there is so much more out there that to me is worth getting.

Guest DJ Supernova Posted June 10, 2001 Share Posted June 10, 2001 Element is really amazing. this album blew me away the first time around and it keeps on giving. nice bass driven german beats with deep atmospherics and nice vocals and melodies. standouts are "wilkommen", "feel", "the crow"(just amazing!), "transform". these guys know how to make quality music. this stuff is super deep. 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I listen to a track like Willkommen I go into a state trance and can´t control my body no more The last 4 min of the track are beautifull... I can´t describe it!! But that´s just one of the tracks.... My god... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
