4.0 out of 5 stars
"The Last Resort" is no longer the very last...,
This review is from: The Trentemoller Chronicles (Audio CD)
Danish techno producer Anders Trentemoller was arguably responsible for one of 2006's best records all genres altogether when, that year, he dropped his first full-length, "The Last Resort"; its intricate production, complex programmings and spacey soundscapes melted gracefully one into the other to full mindblowing effect.
"The Trentemoller Chronicles" is not exactly that record's follow-up, but this double CD-set clearly takes on where the previous one left off; CD 1 is a moody collection of new tracks, rare ones or alternate mixes of already available stuff (especially rewarding are "Snowflake"'s live version or the radical vocal rework of his own "Moan", which was one of the most surprising Ibiza hits this side of Summmer '2007) that builds up brilliantly at least as high as "The Last Resort" did, if not even further as the mixed format suits Trentemoller's music even better (even though the debut mentioned was also itself produced as a whole trip without a pause). On the other hand, CD 2 offers us a selection of harder-sounding (i.e. more dancefloor-oriented) remixes Anders did for other artists; sometimes his take on those tracks works remarkably well (as on Röyksopp's "What Else Is There ?", Sharon Phillips's "Want 2 / Need 2" or The Blacksmoke Organisation"'s "Danger Global Warming"), sometimes less (The Knife's "We Share Our Mother's Health) and sometimes not at all (Moby's "Go"). Best of all (on that disc), still, is the hypnotic closer "Les Djinns" rework for Djuma Soundsystem, which makes you want to go back to the dreamy soundscapes of CD 1. A bit of a mixed bag, then, but well worth the purchase if only for CD 1 and at least half the remixes on CD 2.

Perfection,
By musicarama "musicarama" (Basel, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Trentemoller Chronicles (Audio CD)
This album blew me away and has not been off my stereo since I bought it. Techy and minimal the first CD is all Trentemoeller stuff but the second is a quality selection of remixes. Perfect.

I cannot stop listening to this,

This review is from: The Trentemoller Chronicles (Audio CD)
If you want to 'GO' (move) I mean really want to do stuff fast or get in the mood for electro, this is THE CD!
I just love the sound. Building up just about every song from a vague electro ambient sound to hard pumping climactic trance house it really gets you there.
