Oh it's not just the music. It's the people that listen to his music here.
It's about as mainstream as you can get and it's generally listened to (here, not everywhere I guess) by the least intelligent people of our country...
You just won't believe what that guy attracts.
He's a great guy by the way. Talked to him once.

It's not very useful to post samples for me, but there's more people here :)

Oh not just because of you. Electronic music like this is just not really enjoyed on here. Stuff like IDM and Ambient perhaps, but not Trance or Progressive House.

And yeah his music isn't mainstream here, then again no Electronic music really is, but I'm not surprised that it's popular there. I imagine it's probably the same story for Armin van Buuren? :laughing: Perhaps Ferry Corsten too, but I have a great deal of respect for him. Not that I don't respect AvB or Tiesto, but they're more commercial producers than anything else. Ferry Corsten seems to be doing his own thing regardless of popularity. He was one of the first people to combine Electro and Trance, which was back in 01. He always just seems to be ahead of everyone else.

I think this is a very beautiful album.

Just bought Squirrel Nut Zipper's "Perrineal Favorites" and The Ramones' "Mania." Two excellent "best of" CDs.

Nice. I love that album so much, it's one of those addictive albums that you never get sick of. 'Sleep Alone' and 'Daniel' are flawless.

Download spreeeeeeeeee!

I love that album. Mainly for Daniel though sometimes I just want to randomly hear it. I think that's the only track on the album that I hit repeat on.

I hope this is not your first time listening to this. My copy is overplayed. One of his best.

All downloads of that band I could find are in awful quality, which is a pity considering their brilliant recordings.
I use their album "Des visages des figures" as a reference for testing out CD Players. But apart from that, it's just a brilliant album. Give that a try :)
