Check out this review. After reading it I felt like "I want to buy this immediately!".
It's just so correctly written and fits to the descriptions I undersatand fully.
This is a wonderfull example of what a good review can be.

No really, even if it was wriiten by a PR manager, paid, and things like that. It still is a brilliant review, I guess the best f*cking one I' ve read in a while.
He just had the correct words I was always seraching for in decribing music.
And even the release is not htat important. Imagine someone describing a trance album like that for example.
I hope Shahar would read this and agree with me concerning the language. ; )

A couple of favourite passages:

I don’t think I’ve ever written a review that includes almost every track so extensively. This is progressive, yet it’s not. This is electro, yet it isn’t. This is breaks but far from it. This trance but it’s so forward thinking. This is all of it working perfectly together. This is everything that dance music should be but is so often hard to find. An outstanding achievement not only for James Holden but the people behind the Balance series.

I’ve always believed that compilations mixed by specific DJs are a reflection of their mind, soul and aboveall, personality. For those of us that buy these releases, as such, they are an extension of who we are as an individual. And if ‘Balance 005’ mixed by James Holden is an extension of who I am as a person, then I’m proud of that. Because ‘Balance 005’ is an intelligent, thought provoking, tear-inducing and at times, complex example of how music should be presented.
