a gimmick track to make cash and i remember my mate had the 10" inch copy and one day after a party we threw it down the road like a freezbie and pissed ourselves laughing as we picked it again and did again and again... shit track
@StagTowner -- I might be the only person to think this is shit track but to me it is... MFS were coming out with some crazy timeless records, search their back catalogue. Microglobe High on Hope (92 summer remixes) Mystic Force Frontier EP release and Cosmic Baby who pretty much never had a bad record. To me these are all worth checking out and far more original and before PVD for an angel. Unsure what music you are into but i was heavily into the German trance techno sound from 1990 - 1993
@MrSethticles theres a world of differance between me and you chap, I dont make negative comments about music i dont like because I have this rule where i only listen to music I do like..........and please dont try strangling me with your expert view on german techno! iv a loft buckling under the weight of 9,000 whites, acetates and test pressings...........no scooter btw lol
@MrSethticles you're not the only one with that opinion, I'm not crazy about this track, but I'd rather talk to you about how 1990-96 were some of the best years of trance. I dig the stuff from Sven Vath and Oliver Lieb at the time, not to mention tons of techno from that era too.
@TMundo - I was a massive German Techno lover, Torsten Fenslau by far was the genius behind Germany's new sound, some very early Oliver Lieb rocked, later on by 92 93 MFS were killing it with Cosmic Baby and Microglobe, my favorite German label is BOY records 1990 - 93, Dance 2 Trance stuff i love as well, even PVD remix of Take a Freefall is awesome, match with Love stimulation never heard anything good from him again. Early eye Q too had some choons, Brainchild symtery C Vernons Wonderland
@MrSethticles I really like Sven Vath's earlier stuff circa 94. Also Oliver Lieb. They are the two best trance artists in my opinion. I also like Ian Pooley nowadays, he's done some deep house fused with brazillian and 80's r&B that's pretty impressive. Then there's FSOL, The Orb, Orbital, and american artists like Moby and BT that I dig as well. France has quite a bit of electronic funk that I like too.
@MrSethticles Absolutely second that. Don't forget Platipus,LePetitPrince,etc.,Harthouse,Force Inc.,and so many more :). '89-'94 were the dawn of (what we back then called) Techno, driven by the sheer explosion of creativity in every direction of new electronic sounds.
Nice, that some people still admire the origins (sure, e-music origins are way much older (50s-70s)).
But regarding the vast outburst of a new, placid and humble el.-party-scene, the early 90s are unmatched, a time of its own.
hated this track then and hate it more now... such a kiddy rave sound and not what true german trance was producing at the time.. a gimmick track to make cash
there is just something about them early 90 drum beats that sounds so cool, pvd was way ahead of the times back in 94 when he made this classic up :)
To me the original is always the best. The same is with this song. I had 4 years when I first heard it and it never gets old! One of the tunes that got me into trance music!
this is such an amazing set.......... I want the 90's technics and techno and trance back, now we have shit music on cds and comp.programmes, thats a misunderstanding, the old machines are the best!
kiero comentar que escuche este track en el año 2000 en un aestacion de radio del DF y quede facinado con la musica del maestro Van Dyk. lo tengo grabado en casette. muy buena para escucharla una y otra vez
@Radagis2 indeed, they sure were, weren't they. :P i wonder what happened?
i guess thats what happens, when you trust someone else, to do jobs you wish you could do...lol. what a joke the world has become indeed, these fast times, are wreckless, more dangerous than ever. so glad i am not an idiot about myself anymore.
let all those young hip doods get aids...i'll chill to my tunes, and blaze. honey, comes and goes...everyone knows.
For me the best part is from 3:50 till the end. I love listening to that various sounds with closed eyes and goosebumps... I hear each of sample separately. Masterpiece.
@drukjohn1982 yo considero que noseadelanto esto es tecno puro subterraneo no exitian antros ni publicidad se nota el talento reconosco que esun genio .
Damn... I'm so mad that i'm so young and was born on the wrong side of Berlin wall. Missed the whole damn era of trance. You can't call music which is done today - trance. The song sounds amazing. It just makes me feel if it would be 90's...
U be right. I know this version right in 1995 when it came out. And after this I like dj's play it but they dont. They play the new covers from PvD, but I dont like them, too. This track in large dancehalls played makes me goosebumps :)
try mixin yourself this 1995 version with the one with the beach video and the 2009 version and eventually the goosebumps will explode into an interstelar orgasm
Classic tune back on my time zone the white label one with the sing in it was a tune none the less great add, wish my LP didnt get nicked i had this tune!!! Lovaaa!
This is the real "For an Angel". Back in 1994 or 1995 when I first heard this on the radio, I loved it. Paul van Dyk dedicated this song for his mother, the radio host said.
i miss the day where trance was popular now its shitty rap music these days..... ill never ever let the spirit of trance die...
