This was the first CD of the genre I purchased. A day after attending a small rave, I went to a little hole in the wall record store. The clerk said, "This is new, you should try it out." If I had a time machine I would go back and shake that guys hand. What a blessing! Much love to all those who see this comment. May the journey never end.

[@6cobrasnake9]

It was a rainy night & I remember buying this CD at Tower Records when it was released. I opened it up, got in my car and drove home passed my house and just kept going. Got back on the Freeway and must’ve drove @ 25 miles no traffic in the middle of the night with a light drizzle rain. Drove back home again only to pass up my house once more. Driving in the rain listening to Sasha for the first time got me hooked forever! Finally got home at the crack of dawn. I went to bed saying to myself “wow there is another life “. I gots to thank GOD for the music . 🎶🙏🏻🎵. It really changed my life completely. I’m taking this w/me when I leave.

@@coastalcruise1345 it had a different vibe back then. Some of the newer tracks are okay.. I prefer the feel of the older stuff. Im 40 and have been listening to house and techno since i was a freshman in HS, so perhaps thats why I favor the older era of the music. Ive heard plenty of shit these days called prog houe when its clearly minimal. The lines have been blurred a bit. To me progressive is a different sound. An twist on the basic formula.

My first visit to Space Ibiza in 1999 and Sasha was on the decks. Amazing night, music was spot-on - dark, intense, moody atmosphere and eventually emerged at 08:00 to the bright sunshine.. never forgotten it and a highlight of my clubbing career (in retirement now hehe). This album serves as a wonderful reminder.

This era was unmatched. Tiesto, Guetta etc. have no clue. I was very fortunate to be in this space all the way back to late 80s. Been to hundreds of live events over the years. KLF, Moby, FSOL, Lords of Acid etc. In terms of DJs, I caught the Sasha/Digweed show way back early 2000s and it was insane. Time truly has no mercy n how fast it passes us by.

[@mitachu]

Tiesto was amazing back in the day. He's totally changed his genre now unfortunately. Check out Flight 643 and Suburban Train for example - these were MASSIVE tracks and worlds away from the garbage he's churning out these days.

[@Julsies7]

gotta disagree re Tiesto. He had some of the most hynoptic trance in the late 90s early 2000's. he has sold out and makes garbage now but he was definitely unique 20+ years ago. although maybe not ever quite as good as our god called Sasha ;)

Sasha is famous for his ‘in key’ mixing. I could be wrong. He picked up this technique from an early Hacienda resident Jon daSilva. It must have been a labourious process back then finding the key of the record. Goin up through the chromatic scale of the keyboard matching the key. Further confusion coming from ‘is it A minor or A major?’

The Set that changed my life. The mix between track 2 and 3 changed my entire outlook on life

[@adelepyott2094]

early 90s best years ever for Global underground and Trance ,This Dj is one of the.best there will ever be❤👌

[@faff1423]

From 47mins to the end is literally the most magical musical moment of my entire life. The whole CD is incredible to the point of absurd but that collection of music from 47 until the final track is the most seamless ethereal and life changing sequence ever. It inspired me and continues to do so to this day. That mix from Stage One into Sacred is probably my favourite track to track mix in history.

[@TASFERNATU]

This time period in life lives on forever... I wake up to this music every day, its as if i were still right there. The music never fades, it rises with the sun.

[@matthewmwalker]

This is one of the best all around progressive mixes ever. It’s certainly the best GU mix of the era. It still sounds modern and relevant.

[@paulratcliffe9361]

The last track is the absolute nuts 🤗 he always brings it home with one 🖐

[@jasonellam1973]

Absolute timeless masterpiece

[@markgreen933]

I remember seeing Sasha and digweeds northern exposure tour, it was absolutely immense. I listen to this mix when I go out on my runs, it helps me achieve my 10 mile targets.

[@dianadalasio6435]

I discovered Sasha and this CD one day at a Tower Records Listening Station (I miss that place) long ago. I was a bit too old to go out to the dance/club scene back in the late 90's so I didn't know much about techno/trance music but I've always loved the sound synth-pop from the 80's so this was something I instantly fell in love with. This is one of the best if not the best GU recording ever! Mind Blowing and Perfect! Can't get any better than this! Thank you for uploading this on KZbin!

[@christopherarch]

Diana Dalasio I definitely recommend checking out Danny Tenaglia's Athens Greece.

[@TheKiman2]

Me too! GU albums were really fancy and stood out. I bought mine at Tower during the summer of 2000.

[@benthomas5061]

Cool Diana, never too old!!....I loved this kinda music since the early 1990's but finding this compilation, by chance, when visiting LA, and it being my intro to the GU label, a long love affair, was life changing. In many ways still the best eh, Sasha song choice, and order of songs, and mixing, was exceptional

[@peterg4130]

Damn this takes me back. I absolutely love that transition from Feel High into Real Time. So smooth. And then how he builds the 3 tracks into the legendary Stage One. Timeless classic

[@architect1803]

Yep, that transition is still today one of the best I've ever heard!

[@victorarmijo3520]

Its really amazing, listen again this music Peter! 12 years after and enjoy again! travel in this greatest sounds of the master: SASHA THANK YOU!!!

[@ianvance1647]

He was always on another level, and everyone knew it. Nearly all the GU albums sound dated to some degree, but Sasha's and some of Digweed's stand the test of time. Impeccable record selection, impeccable mixing.

[@SkyRiseProductionsLtd]

Totally agree mate. I’ve listened to a few other GU mixes lately from back in the day. Quite a few just sound dated. Sasha’s still sounds fresh. He’s a true legend. This CD is THE best prog mix ever.

[@DrGoyo]

melancholy runs through my veins I can listen to this forever...

[@Jamiefallslikeabrick]

best album i ever bought, shaped what everything I listened too from that point on.

[@ovogel]

Sasha’s Ibiza was like being at a beach party, forest party, dreamland party all in one...we traveled towards his music and reveled in it for the MOST GLORIOUS MOMENTS HIS HAD TO OFFER!! Indeed.

[@juanmanueloleaquemoreno8188]

Still best of the best

[@davidavery5114]

Top album by Sasha!☺️

[@benthomas5061]

In many ways the greatest 2 cds eva, an absolute journey, the true essence of progressive trance

[@abscrete]

Those were good times for djing, turntables amazing vinyl music and a true movement.

[@Loneranger670]

In 2022 it still sounds good. Sasha laid the foundation of underground EDM and literally invented the art of mixing harmonically and intelligently to create unique audio “ bridges” between two songs. Respect👊🏻. ps…Global Underground was likely the best EDM brand that has ever existed.

[@dreamlab311]

Oh the memories. The "I'll rub your back then you can rub mine" days.

[@TheRealPDizzle]

That transition from My Lexicon into Orbital is beyond words for me

[@RyanODon]

Yep and Stage One to Sacred

[@markjohnston3524]

The tune before my lexicon is amazing the baseline track 😍😍

[@l8bloomer]

With a little help from Pro-tools ;)

[@mrgman3229]

And also out of orbital into Christin Smith wow lift off

[@vidheaven]

amazing transition, and my all time faforite is in Involver from "smile" to "belong" to "in a state", I met him in personal and have signed copy of some compilations and I guess I am 3 years younger

[@gorgioanalogkrooner3609]

Prolly the greatest mix ever!! to come out of Ibiza Spain raves on dat island- in the past- 20th century!! Masterpiece vinyl mix!...no one matches it!... NO ONE!!! I still listen to it in amazment almost as a voyage!

[@Ehgbeeter]

Oh boy this takes me back🎉🎉 the early days of progressive trance were amazing......on weed man haha

[@Monkeymanofsantefe]

I think cd sucks

[@jimmymoore810]

The transition from my lexicon to nothing left and then onto move... still fills this empty vessel of myself, with emotion and feeling! For a brief few moments after, the numbness begins to subside...

[@szabolcsveszpremi8144]
