Review:

 

No time listings given for this as the CD plays as one continuous mix. Oh and

you might recognise the Remixer of this album - a certain Paul Oakenfold!! He

does his job admirably as you can imagine, and the album flows nicely together

with seamless mixing skills. As always with Paul, he loves to champion the

sound of Martin Freeland aka Man With No Name and the two MWNN tracks included

here are thankfully pretty good. Expect more Dragonfly classics like The

Infinity Project?s Feeling Very Weird and what better way to round off

anything with nothing less than LSD!!!

i don't like mix cds very much... these great songs have been butchered by paul

oakenfold. he should stick to club trance. the sample at the end of the cd

leaves it on a sour note. the problem is, it's hard to find some of these

good/rare songs except on this cd. 9/10 for the songs, 0/10 for the mixing

can someone post the individual track timings?

I can't work out where Black Sun - Fat Buddha comes in, between Slinky Wizard

and LSD.

Great compilation from Oakie now being re-issued illegally in the U.S. because

of Oakie's spiralling popularity over there and the whole trance scene in

general. A lot of people think it's his new CD, you have a better tribute

than that for a six year old compilation!

Oakenfold called a recent compilation titled Voyage Into Trance, which is

credited to him, an "illegal bootleg," saying that eight years ago he mixed

some tracks on the British label Dragonfly for a friend who owned it. Now, he

claims, "they've changed the cover, they've put me all over it, and it looks

like it's an album from me. I have nothing to do with it. The original title

was Dragonfly: Voyage Into Trance." Oakenfold said his lawyers are working on

preventing further copies of the collection, which is released in America by

Hypnotic Recordings, from reaching stores.

Great compilation of hard-to-find ( by today's standards ) tracks by early

Oakenfold! Paticularly for those of us who got our

"electo-audio-warfare-roots" in the early 90s Goa / Psy Trance movement and

never archived these tracks into our collection(s). Classic

"oldies-but-goodies" tunes here, even if the re-release is a blatant RIP-OFF

of Oakenfold / Dragonfly's original. Come'on Hypnotic! You could have showed

the man a lil' more respect!

The album that turned me on to psychedelic trance. An absolute masterpiece!

All tracks are excellent and stand the test of time. Still one of my favorite

compilations/mixed cds.

Good collection of songs but very poorly mixed....I don't like it that much and

songs between each other don't go that well...He should put some songs in

different order than this one...Maybe Paul Oakenfold is good in dj-ing in

clubs but he is certainly missing something on cd...Best on comp : ALIENS,

TELEPORT, SUPERBOOSTER, VOYAGER 3, NEW MOON, FEELING WEIRD, FAT BUDDHA,

LSD...so practcally all...8/10 ( would be 10/10 if it was better mixed )...

Yeah, fucking awesome comp, mixed pretty ok (take into consideration that it

was 1995, and old goa is harder to mix than most others). But there are some

really great tracks here that are otherwise hard to find. "Wicked Warp" is

absolutly amazing! However, the track listed as "Aliens" from Total Eclipse,

does not even remotly match up with the "Aliens" that appears on Dragonfly

Classix 1. Both Say the same thing, but are different tracks. I suspect that

the one here is mislabeled, perhaps it is actually the self titled "Total

Eclipse" track that was on Project 2 Trance back in 93. Anyhoo, great cd, try

to find the original, don't get hosed and buy the new one like I did. Fucking

ugly as sin! Oakies picture pasted all over it! Yeeesh. Yeah, find the old one!

OK, I have now seen 4 seperate Re-Releases of this with totally different

covers! All from Hypnotic! What the hell is going on with them? Oh, and track

3 is actually Dynamix - The Rezistor...
