Trance Party, Vol. 6

I have been an avid trance listener for years now, even back to 'Trance Party 2". It is difficult to find good, quality dance music; normally for me in the beginning it was pretty much trial and error.Robbins Entertainment, (the record label for the 'Trance Party' series) I believe have lost their edge after 'Trance Party 4'. I beleive this due to the grown of Robbins Entertainment. Instead of producing a really solid, continuous mix of stellar trance, they rather use the now popular 'Trance Party' series to try and catapult their own artists.For one thing, when I buy a trance compilation I am looking for tracks that aren't necessarilly found in other compulations. Right around 'Trance Party 4', everytime we touch by Cascada and those couple DHT songs (Listen to your Heart) started to populate the Happy Boys mixes.Dont' get me wrong some of the songs that Robbins Entertainment chooses to have on the compilation are great, its just that I feel its nowhere near the genre of trance at all. If you are looking for genuine vocal trance please check out the 'Trance Party' series 2-4, (maybe buy what tracks you want off of 5 on itunes).

this cd was goodand the music was the bomb. its hard to find great music like this.thanks so much.

they're older mixes are better, the HB's mix well, but the selection of music is just 'okay.' a few songs are spectacular, the rest are so-so.

This album would have gotten 5 stars if not for a few songs.1. "Fire" - I hate it. It is incredibly, incredibly repetitive, and not in a good way. It grated on my nerves after 30 seconds. The thought of sitting through another 4 minutes of the song was enough to make me want to turn off the radio. But I was patient and I skipped to the next track. I'm sure some people love the song (they must, for it to be on this and Dance Factory IV), but I think it's awful.2. "Cut" sounds a little like a remixed pop song, something Kelly Clarkson would sing. It's good, but a little slow.3. "I Think I Love You" is very upbeat, almost hyperactive, but entertaining.4. "All About Me" is a classic breakup/move on song, pretty good.5. "Kiss the Sky" - Most people probably know "Kiss the Sky" - the mix on here is slightly different from the radio edit, and it makes it better. Great song.6. "All My Love" really gets your pulse going with its beat - it's an unrelenting song, and I love it.7. "When You Say Nothing At All" brings the pace down a little, as it is sort of a ballad with a beat. It's mediocre. Not bad, but not great. The kind of song you might skip sometimes.8. "Lying" - Not so good. This surprised me, since I usually like Lasgo. This song is almost pure 80's - not a musical style I'm fond of. If you like that cheesy sound, you'll probably love it.9. "Tracking Treasure Down" - I think the title is awkward, but it's a decent, if slightly mellow, song. I think it's the type of song that grows on you after a few listens.10. "Raindrops" is a fantastic song, short and sweet and packed with greatness. I just wish it was longer.11. "Push It" - I don't understand this trend of making dance versions of old 80s songs. It worked out well for Louie Devito, with Take on Me and Rhythm is a Dancer (a few years ago), but Push It wasn't a good song to begin with and no amount of remixing can make it good. But it is tolerable for about 90 seconds. Then your finger will start itching to change it.12. "Alive" - this song is subtitled "German Club edit" and it absolutely made me have visions of dancing in a packed European club. Love it.13. "Piece of Heaven" starts out one way and then completely changes, but the effect is good and it's an upbeat head-nodder.14. "Bad Boy" by Cascada...another fist-pumper. I really like it, even though I tried not to. Equal parts serious and playful, a very charismatic and likeable song, even if it does support a pet peeve of mine (girls who only like bad boys).15. "Satellites" - a funky and fresh song, the kind you like more and more each time you listen to it. Good stuff.16. "I Go Crazy" - It is a good song, but I wonder if the original is better, or if there is a better remix out there. This mix is a little directionless. A pleasant listen nonetheless.Overall, this is a pretty solid compilation. There are always a few songs that different people with different tastes won't like, so I never expect one of these to be perfect. It's a good investment; 90% of the cd keeps your foot tapping to the beat, and that is sometimes hard to find.

I have to agree with the reviewer who said that Trance Party 6 grows on you each listen. My favorite times to listen to this cd are right when I am getting ready to leave for work and also right before I am about to go out to other places. Many of the tracks on this cd are good to listen to but some of the standout tracks in my opinion are "I think I love you" by Balm, "raindrops" by Stunt, "alive' by da buzz and "satellites" by September.

This was a really good CD. Almost all of the songs were up beat and great songs to listen to. I listen to a lot of trance and if you like a mix of hard and soft songs (which I do) with some lyrics it was great. You won't be disappointed. Listen to the whole cd twice and you LOVE every song. Enjoy(I had to write this because the other reviews didn't do it justice)

I definitely recommend some of these songs for the gym. Overall, I found the record enjoyable, but there are a few tracks I'd throw out.Here's the tracks I feel stand out:All about me --> kiss the sky (I say you need them together -- these two were mixed well)Tracking Treasure downPiece of HeavenAliveBad Boyand finally, the BEST song on the record and the one you must take with you to the treadmill...Satellites. The beat of the song along with its message makes it a must for the gym.
