We managed to create something astounding every single year, allowing A State Of Trance to become bigger, better and exponentially more badass. So when we're talking about 'A State Of Trance 800 (The Official Compilation)', you better know that expectations will be shattered to pieces. With 'A State Of Trance 800 (The Official Compilation)', the best in Trance are kicking it up a notch.

Trance has turned into a global phenomenon. Like no other genre in EDM, it puts its listeners in a frenzy, hypnotizing with every beat. And that’s a lot, with a bpm that high…

"Tibet Trance" is the name of the release from the formation Red Buddha feat. the flute player Lenny Mac Dowell. The album is also a homage to Tibet and its people. Original voices and sounds from the Tibetan Monastaries are mixed with Trance grooves. This album invites listeners to take part of the spiritual emotions created by various flutes, grooves and electronic elements. Music inspired by the "roof of the world" taking you into a deep emotional world of feelings. Most of us haven’t had a chance to visit Tibet and yet alsmost everybody feels somekind of bond towards this beautiful, but also mysterious place.

Celtic Trance presents a warm, fuzzy mixture of Celtic musical streams with trance and ambient, meaning a lot of swirling synth pads, soft drums, Irish whistles, and sampled instruments with some vocals thrown in for good measure. This particular production is likely to remind some listeners of Enigma, while others may think of Jean-Michel Jarre, though it does carve out its own identity along the way, heavy breathing effects and all. It's also highly functional as a tool for relaxation – not an album recommended for playing on long road journeys, certainly.
