   This is an incredible release, really, it's a rare occasion that i dig some CD this much, but this is a stunning, almost otherworldly stuff, in my top 5 chill albums ever. Beautiful, trancy ambient/downtempo beats from a glory days.

Patchwork ‎– Odeon (1998)

Label: Spirit Zone Recordings
Country: Germany
Style: Drum n Bass, Dub, Downtempo, Ambient
Year:1998




While growing up under the background training of classical and folk guitar, Jens Paulsen took a slightly different musical direction when he took the alias of "Patchwork." Consisting of the trio "me, myself and I, " Paulsen combined an ambient flow of electronic/psychedelic overtones that could fit into the category of "new age, " even though that term is considered taboo by Paulsen. This sound is characterized on Patchwork's self-titled debut in 1997, followed by Odeon a year later and 1999's Marsmellow. Diorama appeared in mid-2000.   (Mike DaRonco)

Les Dupont ‎– Miracle (1995)


Label: Omnisonus
Format: CD, Album 
Country: France
Released: 1995
Style: Trance, Breaks, Techno, Ambient


   There is only one bad (sad) thing about this album : it never was released on vinyl. For the rest, this piece of resin contains some gems, totally unheard (because of released in France ?), overlooked, underrated and the most important : rather unusual.With the standout tracks you can find quality techno (Outremer, exotic feeling, "outremer" means the french departements located in the pacific, indian and atlantic ocean), quality house (Sur l'Eau, nice voice samples and delayed synths, but not sounding as all the self-called IDM things, released on vinyl fortunately) and quality downtempo (Jean-Michel).It becomes unusual with the structure of the tracks, they keep changing all the way ! Without becoming draft, that's what's interresting and the highlight of the album.    Review by ilt17

Various ‎– After Trance Vol. 3 - The Ultimate Techno Morning Mix (1995)

Label: Javelin Ltd
Format: 3 × CD, Mixed, Compilation
Country: France
Released: 1995
Style: House, Techno, Trance, Ambient


This is the best trance mix compilation I have ever heard so far. Though the mixing isn't all that spectacular, the track selection is amazing. Little if any vocals on here. Many of my oldskool trance favourites are on here, from Sarasate's Loopism to Clino's Voyager, this massive release is end-to-end trip into bliss. 
The 1st CD itself is the greatest trance mix ever, a journey into melodic, progressive trance. Second CD introduces darker side of trance in addition to melodic. The 3rd CD has some breakbeat-style trance and downtempo-like tracks for a smooth finish. DJ Jean-Marie K has amazing taste in trance music. Good luck finding this release for a decent price!
