Everything i wanted to say has already been said in the detailed reviews above, so i'll just add (as Zen Mechanics said) that this is the best album to hit the scene in a long time. So many great tracks here, that it would be unnecessary to pick a favorite track. Everything that i missed in the psy-progressive scene recently- is right here. Well done Yoni!

Astonishing release.
Very energetic progressive stuff, most tracks work very well in the dance floor and for home listening this is also one of my favorites.
We've got at least 4 stand outs, and all other tracks are above average. This is a special release, I'd place it together with the Perfect Stranger - Changed as the essential releases of 2007 in the progressive scene. Of course there are other good releases, but these two fit excessively well into my personal taste, and deliver many incredibly detailed and effective tracks.
Congratulations! I recommend this release to everyone here.

good album, but not like i expect from this album to be, there was nothing special.
sound is good and clean work and also good for the dance floor but its not unique and infinity
7/10 for me,
i was sure its going to be the album of the year but it was not.

Ace Ventura is defiantly one of the best progressive artists to name from Israel
The new and debut album is outstanding also to name one of the best iboga releases in the past year
The Light is brilliant track

not a great fan of proggy... but this cd is something else!!! ever since i heard ace's set in a party about 2 months ago i thought his cd would be the kind of prog i like and this cd was even a better surprise... great for home listening AND the dancefloor at the same time... which is quite rare these days 
psychic experience, the light and expose are fucking masterpieces!!!
and of course the rest are really great but those 3 tracks stand out really

I have never really dug prog except for the likes of Son kite, Hux Flux etc. For the very fact that someone had mentioned earlier ; on lacking drive and depth. But hearing so much abt this project and for the fact tht he was a member of Psysex i decided to give it a listen.
And i have enjoyed every single moment of it!
This sound reminds of early goa trance. Deep and pounding. Crystal clear production and great percussion work. Overall great feel.
Wld be perfect to hear outdoors. One of the best albums of 2007 regardless of the genre. This truly is a masterpiece and the perfect title for the album.
Wld love to hear u at a party someday mate!
Now i can say... FUK YEA .. I love prog!!!
BOOM!

I really enjoyed this cd!!!
My favourite is for sure Serenity Now... WOW... I miss so much this kind of music... Thanks Ace! The Light is other fav, with the super rocking and emotional part after the 6 min... SUPERB!
The production of this release is amazing and flawless. But I must say that for me it´s still lacks of some "thematic riffs and leads" from old psy-prog(I´m not saying that it needs it, just my point of view, as this release can match the psy-prog style). Maybe the sound is so polish that nothing really stands out... Althought this does not makes the cd worse! Listening the full cd is a super pleasant experience!

It's funny but i ve always cheered for Perfect Stranger more than Ace Ventura, but i got to admit, this one got me hooked up!
it wasnt love at first ear for sure, it grew on me slowly, but now that I ve heard it almost 100 times, i'm still discovering something new in each track everytime i listen to it again.. amazing

Fantastic album. surely one of the standout albums for me in this genre this year. took me a while to really appreciate what was going on in the tracks to be honest . it seemed like an average dancefloor oriented release initially, but i was proven wrong on the fifth or sixth listen .. just love the feeling when that happens
fav : psychic experience , the light , MARS and exposed.
