Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Ian Van Dahl's Ace partially fills the mighty void that was so cruelly left empty, following the exit of the master of Euro Trance-Pop--Sash! Of course, Ian is actually Anne-Mie, a female singer from Belgium, who's risen to fame with a little help from a couple of over-zealous producers and two sexy dancers. Like Sash! and his other Euro-pop cronies, Van Dahl struggles to fill the album with anything half decent, resulting in 70 minutes of variations of breakthrough single "Castles in the Sky". While the simple lyrics, melody and tragic feel of "Castles" may have contributed to the tune's success, filling the majority of the album with such aimless lyrics and repetitive tunes is unlike to add to "Ian's" chart longevity. Filler instrumentals "Nights on Java", "Run" and the self-explanatory "Intro" and "Interlude" do provide some light relief. "Secret Love" is a stunner of a tune tucked away towards the end of an otherwise unremarkable album. --John Galilee

4.0 out of 5 stars Great trance-style album, 25 May 2002
By A Customer
Not normally a fan of the genre I wasn't expecting a great deal from this record. However, despite the quiet 'intro' most of the remainder is fairly high-energy dance music. Normally the sort of stuff I can only palate in a nightclub, I found it very easy to listen to in the home/car. For someone whose collection of this type of music is restricted to this one CD (I liked 'Castles in the Sky' on the radio, ok?) this has to be a recommendation.

5.0 out of 5 stars This album certainly lives up 2 its name 'Ace'!, 18 Jun 2002
By A Customer
This album is brill. At first when i listened to it i didnt think it was all that good but after a few times listening to it, iv learnt that its actually a pretty good album. The three classic tracks 'Castles In The Sky' 'Will I?' and 'Reason' are all on the album but apart from these great tracks there are also a lot more, but wot do u expect from a fab dance artist. Personally my fave track is 'Tears' and i can see this as a future hit as its such a wicked tune. Anyway the only advice im gonna giv is go buy this album as it certainly is 'Ace'. It def lives up to its title.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not great :-(, 22 Oct 2002
By A Customer
Hmm, wasn't impressed with this album at all. I love "Reason", "Castles In The Sky" and "Will I", so I bought the album. Unfortunatly most of the other tracks are pretty borring. Also the version of "Try" is not very good I think the version released recently is better. Nothing wrong with Amazon's service here it just wasn't a very good album. Definatly make sure you have listened to this album through before you buy it.
