A Partial Disappointment From PVD!
Disk one has several tracks on it that I would not consider trance. I am not sure how to classify them but maybe more of a house or techno style. Disk two saves this two disc set with the traditional trance music we have come to expect of PVD.

PVD in his lowest point
when I saw this album I tough it was going to be amazing, cause CREAMFIELD + PVD should be great. But I have to say that this is a very mediocre album, I think that probably PVD did not pick the songs.

CD 1, is not trance, is not electro is regular house/techno you can hear in your local club,

CD 2 is a little bit of trance but not close to politics of dancing

I think PVD made a favor to a friend or something, is far from all others PVD albums. Before you buy it try to listen some way somehow.

About Time
I've only listened to CD #1 thus far and it seems to me that many reviewers here have not actually had the pleasure of attending one of Paul van Dyk's live sessions. CD #1 is a very good representation of what his recent DJ sessions have been like - and I now finally have it on CD. In general you could say it more accurately reflects the experience of attending one of his concerts over the years than do any of his recent albums (particularly his latest which seem to attempt to enter the arena of "pop" with somewhat poorly matched vocals to otherwise brilliant music).

Paul van Dyk live in concert is unparalleled. If you've already purchased this CD and are unhappy with it, salvage your purchase by watching for upcoming local gigs and buying tickets. You'll appreciate CD #1 infinitely more.

If you're contemplating this purchase, do it simply for the reason of listening to the sheer brilliance of Paul van Dyk's seamless weaving of 24 songs into the timespan of just over 65 minutes.

I must now sign off to listen to CD #2... :-)

1 out of 2 isn't bad
I have to agree that the 1st cd in this compilation doesn't go anywhere. But in PVD's defense I think he is trying to capture the feel of one his live sets in Ibiza. And he usually starts the night with the music that is on CD 1. He has to appease the audience that really can't listen to an entire night of just trance. However, Disc 2 tracks are what you would hear at the peaks hours of Ibiza and any night club PVD is DJing at. Though he does play the extend versions of most of these songs when he does perform live. Song to download the full version is Super8 and Tab - Elektra.
