Christopher Lawrence hasn't become, arguably, America's most popular trance DJ by accident. A freakishly skilled man on the decks and possessed by a thirst for new vinyl, Lawrence taps into the same darkly spiritual vibe as international DJ superstars like Sasha and John Digweed. His mix, however, is sleeker and slicker than those of his non-Yankee contemporaries, though still more adventurous and urban than the glowstick anthems offered up by too many U.S. DJs. It's a perfect adjustment for America's notoriously short attention span. United States of Trance, then, seems an appropriate title for Lawrence's latest opus, a quick but satisfying slice of life in his kinetic universe of sound. Check out the spare textures and popping beats in "Holdin' On" (courtesy of Skynet UK), which Lawrence uses with triphammer timing. His work as a producer in his own right is maturing as well; his "Cruise Control" swoops along with a relatively low-key touch, then blends masterfully with "Purple Overdose" from the Captain & Max-Alien Thing. By giving up the goods without insulting his audience, Lawrence expertly walks the thin line between surface cheese and dark beauty that makes trance transcendental. --Matthew Cooke

Ferry Corsten - Passport to the USA.......2007-06-28
Passport USA is solid but never really reaches epic trance status. It gets in the ballpark, but never really made me go "wow" for any extended period of time. Plus you're paying quite a bit of money for only one disc of music. I could do without the DVD if the album cost less.
There are TONS of other trance/ dance/ electronica discs out there. I would skip this and get Armin van Buuren's "A State of Trance 2007" instead.

Album Description
Rabbit In The Moon have established an enormous fan base with the release of their 12-inch singles, remix work, and exploration in live performance. With their world renowned remixes for Smashing Pumpkins, Depeche Mode, Sarah McLachlan, Garbage, and countless others, it's no wonder they have the world eagerly awaiting the release of their first full-length CD/DVD. Their style of electronic music is timeless, but to truly understand this group is to see and hear them live. This 80+ minute DVD takes you behind the scenes and in front of thousands of screaming fans at one of their live festival performances, shot in Hi-Def with a 5.1 Surround Sound mix.Customer Reviews:
Excellent for the casual listener.......2007-07-29
Long Awaited, and a Fantastic DVD.......2007-07-16
As others have noted, RITM is best experienced as a live act. The music is brought to life through the larger-than-life, kabuki theater-like performance and vocalizations of Bunny (Steve Eachon). Perhaps RITM are destined to become the Grateful Dead of modern Techno, as every show is different, and devoted fans follow their shows, and see them again and again, noting the slight changes to the mixes and song selections, and the ever evolving and exciting Bunny Experience.
With that in mind, it is only natural that they would include a DVD that included some of their live material, along with new and creative original video along with the CD.
The quality of the video and audio on this package is flawless and very entertaining for old and new Rabbit fans. One can only hope that they gather momentum from this release to tour heavily, and release another album of completely new material within the next 18 months. The newer material also has more vocals by Bunny, which I find to be an excellent trend which they should continue to develop in their music and live shows.
A great release from a the legendary RITM!.......2007-07-13
but is a classic and couldn't be excluded) but then there's a brand new mix of O.B.E. that, correct me if I'm wrong, has never been released before. (And I own the original Phases O.B.E. 12" record). I love the new mix of that song, and I think it's a great album, even though every single song doesn't thrill me. But even with this CD, some of the older RITM songs that I never really liked much before, like Dubbasex for example, listened carefully and given them another chance, and found they are actually very subtle and beautiful songs.
There is more newer material on the album than some reviewers let on, in fact well over half of it is new. There are a few ommissions, IMO, for example I would have liked to see "Electro Accupuncture" on this CD, but then again that has been released before on a CD, still I think it would have fit in well here though as well. I love the DVD the most, because it reminds me why I've been such a huge fan for so many years, with probably about 7 shows under my belt. To all the fans out there, buy this album! Show your support! Remember the old Zen Festial 96-97 shows, with Bunny, in his disco-ball suit, being lowered by a cable from the ceiling! remember how you felt at those times. They have earned our suport! To those folks new to the electronica genre, this is a good glimpse into understanding the engima that is Rabbit in the Moon... RITM so much more than can possible be described in one album, album review, DVD, magazine article, or antyhing else. There's a whole history and culture behind these guys'one-of-a-kind stlye of performance art, and I think this release captures the essence of it almost as best you could with the amount of material provided. Buy it for the DVD, but then take the audio CD, put in in your car stereo, put on track 8, and crank it up!
Great yet lacking.......2007-07-12

I am pleased to witness this finally see the light of day. The music sounds great with a pair of headphones, and the DVD only makes it better.

BT's This Binary Universe is really a follow-up to his 2004 soundtrack to Monster, a brilliant work of cinematic moods and ambient Americana. It was unjustly ignored by both the Oscars and the Grammys, where it should have at least been nominated for Best Surround Sound Recording. None of that has stopped Brian Transeau from going further down this path of expansive ambient electronica that takes him out of the techno-pop and trance direction he had been pursuing. This Binary Universe taps into BT's classical side, with expansive arrangements and intricate, albeit minimalist, thematic development. From the opening of "All That Makes Us Human Continues," BT reveals himself as a master of Eno-esque melancholy, as simple melodies evolve through an electro-orchestral instrumental palette. Lounge jazz with solos in the key of abstract, plaintive arpeggiated guitars, electro marches, minimalist hymns, and pastoral dreamscapes drive an album that seeks out joy and redemption, but not without traveling through the dark. The last track, "Good Morning Kaia," is a paean to his newborn daughter, and the most purely anthemic track on the disc. I suspect the real raison d'être of This Binary Universe is the accompanying 5:1 surround DVD. BT creates an immersive space that's less sonic pinball and more audio sculpture, often revealing different aspects of his music than in the stereo mix. Each song on the DVD has a unique video that includes antique robots, surreal landscape drawings, live action fantasies, and abstract designs. It's the best way to experience this music, but whether you watch the DVD or tune into the stereo CD, This Binary Universe may be the first ambient symphony of the 21st century. --John DilibertoCustomer Reviews:
Yea, the best of the best.......2007-06-30
Really enjoyed track 4 through 6. Even though those are only 3 songs, they are long and change to different styles in the middle. 6 is freaking awesome.
I wanted to give it 5 stars, but because I was expecting something else, I knocked off a star. Good job though.
Brilliant, just brilliant.......2007-06-07
If you like electronica in any way...strike that. If you think sound is kinda groovy, check this out. There will be something here for you.
Very good change for Mr. Transeau.......2007-06-01
On a side note, the reviewer who falsely credited BT with the score to the Matrix movies should check his/her facts first. The score was by Don Davis, a wonderful band named Juno Reactor, and contained songs by Paul Oakenfold, Rob Dougan, and several rock bands, but absolutely no BT songs were on the soundtracks to any of the 3 movies or the "Animatrix" short film collection, or any of the video games (so far).
This is a really interesting album, containing 7 ambient tracks that tend to follow the Concerto style of establishing a theme, varying the theme, then returning to it. Most of these songs follow this pattern in some shape or form. A major theme in here is youth, particularly infantile youth. I believe that Kaia is the name of his daughter, and supposedly he had her in his arms for many parts of this writing process. Many of the melodies are very beautiful in that infantile sort of way, giving you the impression that they are lullabies of sorts.
They are wonderfully crafted with an infinite amount of detail. There are subtle changes to almost every piece in every sequence. This is best enjoyed with headphones or in surround, as many other reviewers have noted.
The only parts that didn't fit well with me were the power chord sections of "Good Morning Kaia" which clashed with the rest of the album. The jazz section of "Dynamic Symmetry" also sounded quite robotic and lifeless. Jazz does not fit in well with the kind of perfection of sound that BT uses, at least in this attempt.
Major highlights are the orchestral sections in "The Antikythera Mechanism", which are booming and powerful, and get torn apart cleverly by his editing. The other is the core of the song "1.618" (a BRAVE title for a song, I might add), which is this gorgeous hook at a walking pace that you could loop and listen to for 20 minutes.
Overall, wonderful sculpting and a dizzying array of effects make the replay value on this music through the roof. A bit more work on the last track and a little more life in the short jazz section would've made it near perfect.

I Love Lust.......2007-06-23
Some DJs think they know house music, and then there are those who actually do........2007-06-14
The album "Lust, Art & Soul" is kind of a joint venture between Louie Vega and artist/photographer Jonas Larsson ("Off The Record") in which music and graphic art are fused and play off each other in an artistic image. "Lust recognizes that graphic art and music full of soul can feed off each other, satisfying the eye and the mind."
Even though the CD case is lacking a little in the department of photographs (let alone erotic ones), the music is sexy and erotic enough to fulfill Larsson's theme through sound. I think that this work hits its target and accomplishes what was trying to be done and conveyed.
While some tracks are very housey or have a Latin vibe to them, others sound very retro electric 80's like. But I am not complaining at all, on the contrary I am just pointing out the diversity that can be found from song to song. Thumbs up to Louie for compiling a great album of sexy beats!

Call it an aggregation of some of the best contemporary percussionists: Trilok Gurtu, Zakir Hussain, and Asian Underground star Talvin Singh combine under the sonic washes of producer Bill Laswell to show the possibilities of Indian percussion. It's definitely a beatfest, but one of subtlety, where what is being said isn't as important as the way it's being stated, and the dialogue between hands includes a lot of silences. Gurtu comes from a more jazz tradition, Hussein a classical background, and Singh represents the brash young things of the dance floor. Mostly Laswell leaves it to them to provide the sonic entertainment, which is as it should be with delicate swathes of sound barely intruding, just coloring the proceedings. While it's not for everyone, those who love Indian percussion in all its forms will find this album a complete joy. --Chris NicksonCustomer Reviews:

Great DJ's...Mediocre "Producers".......2007-03-18
I'm not sure what I was expecting from this album. Probably something a little closer to the tracks featured in their amazing four disc set, Global Underground 025:Toronto.
George is On contains four tracks that I actually enjoy. The rest are very mediocre and a couple are fairly lame.
If you love GU021:Moscow and GU025:Toronto and expect similar tracks on this album...you will be DEEPly disappointed. I was.
deep dish without the fire.......2006-12-03
masters-of-the-trade that they truly are. they rate in the highest echelon
of dj/remixers modern music has seen. their ability to take some plainly
palatable music and push it to the edge is legend just as is their ability
take some pretty wild experimental stuff and pull it back to some digestable,
needless to say, danceable middle-ground.
but this album lacks in more than one department and it has nothing to do with
artistic freedom-of-choice....or perhaps it has everything to do with it.
i actually think it has to do with fear.
the fear of not being ALL that one can be and becoming less than what you were
yesterday.
the album sports a silly title and cover to begin with.
there is the obvious attempt to be political and fashionable at the same
time.
the jumping in the air in posed-mannered excitement in asian track-suits
is more teen-age than new-age or future-core age or
even old-age (wise-age).
then again i'd be excited too if i got stevie nicks in my studio.
the songs...(and it's always about the songs) are simply lacking here.
there's so much talent here all put to very little use.
it's like ten most-crafty carpenters driving in a finish-nail in a coner piece of
baseboard....but the industry> being what it is....
everyone puts some huge halogens on it and exclaims...miracle.
morel sounds like he's going through the motions here
and i've found him to be often intriguing if not downright gutsy.
the girls do well but are never pushed....even some vocal-effect to
magnify the edge could've done wonders in many places.
nicks sounds good and the song is good (well...a classic to be sure)
it's clean minimal interpetation has it's appeal but again even that could've and
should've been pushed.
oddly enough a song from the 70s is the best to be found on this 2006 album.
some of the songs are just plain bad.
i haven't checked disc 2 yet but that's not what this cd is about....
i don't think.
this is about deep dish offering up supposedly original music.
i saw them live last year where they managed to push much of their program into
a domain which i myself (having grown up with iggy and the stooges and
blue cheer and bowie gabriel every form of pop punk disco and electronic
music imagineable)
experienced as extremely edgy....their set was as sonically aggressive
as anything i've ever encountered (great lights too) perhaps even to the
point of hostile.
i won't say i didn't enjoy the show as i felt in many ways it served as a
metaphor for (or protest against) george bush and america's invasion and
continued assault on iraq.
perhaps a stretch on my part but these weren't happy times and deep dish
wan't about to deny it.
so for this album to show almost no fire...very little in the way of edge
outrage or
urgency.....i hate to say it but they actually sound scared.
perhaps my biggest complaint here has to do with their constant reliance
on these delicately limp acoustic guitar-sounds/samples to sweeten the equation
as if to cover for the fact that there's no material here.
at least a few sounds coming from some of the great devices available to
us....ya know?....a little guitar-ish w/a little cosmic twinkle twang
whhheeeeoooouoummmmmrrrr??!!
i will always love deep dish and this album is in
no way able to knock them off their well-deserved place in history...
their pedestal> but
for those of you who need to find out what works gained
them their place in electronic music's hall-of-fame.....
skip this and pick almost anything else of theirs.
they are gods.....but if you know anything of earth-mythology.....
well...they are gods!

Lackluster.......2006-03-24
If anyone has heard "He's A Dream" would know that the verses sung on the song lead up to a wicked blast of a chorus, but here DD thought it would be better to drop the chorus altogether, thus making the song anti-climatic; which leads me to believe that DD lack not only the production skills to re-produce an effective cover, if not a better one ("Dreams" aside), but do not have the skills of real musicians to know when progession is needed.
"George Is On" is pretty much a spotty and flawed effort that's demonstrative of how ego takes precedence over real talent and the need to strive to out-do yourself and your limitations when your name becomes a brand and is all you need to get by. I'm assuming that's why DD covered Dire Straits 1985 gem "Money for Nothing."

His work as a producer in his own right is maturing as well; his "Cruise Control" swoops along with a relatively low-key touch, then blends masterfully with "Purple Overdose" from the Captain & Max-Alien Thing. By giving up the goods without insulting his audience, Lawrence expertly walks the thin line between surface cheese and dark beauty that makes trance transcendental. --Matthew CookeCustomer Reviews:
Not quite as great as the rest........2003-04-23
I was pretty convinced by the reviews that this was an album I'd really like but I couldn't find it. I shoulda just ordered it from Amazon, but I have a hard time buying music mail order. Needless to say, I found and bought two other Lawrence albums first during a business trip to L.A. They absolutely did not disappoint and reaffirmed my desire to get this album.
Unfortunately, as good as this album is, it's not as great as his other work. Don't get me wrong, this album is better than most of what you'll find out there, and a four star rating from me is good.
I found this album to be a bit too repetative and not quite as deep. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but of the four albums of his I currently own, this is the one I listen to the least. Again let me state that this is still a really great CD, just not quite worthy of a five star rating.

If you dig oldschool 'Fuse, miss it.......2006-08-17
I don't like where D:Fuse has gone with his music.
I was into him back in the psychotrance days, when it was slightly grittier trance, more progressive - and great melodic tracks.
His style carried over to the first People double cd, which I was (and still am) into big time.
It just seems he has gone a different route now, with more clubby tunes and less (in my opinion) soul and power of his earlier stuff. If you dig the old Fuse, pick up some psychotrance or his progressive mix session no.1....
I don't think i'll be pursuing anymore of his cd's, sadly.
