Review|Extraordinary Ways (Special Edition) (2005)


Category: Music
Genre: Dance & DJ

Artist: Conjure One
This is one of the better Ambient/Down-tempo albums I've had the pleasure of listening to. Rhyss Fulber's [from Delerium and Front Assembly] does fantastic work by imbuing enthralling vocals with electronic beats and melodies. It might seem biased but my fave tracks on this album are the ones featuring Poe... One Word, Extraordinary Ways, and Endless Dream are all great. Forever Lost featuring Chemda is nice as well. Something struck me as odd though and to me the intro to Beyond Being sounds a whole lot like Stairway to Heaven (Led Zep)???

Since this is a special edition release there are 3 extra tracks:
Endless Dream (Virus-V High Speed Mix) [so-so]
Extraordinary Ways (Antillas Club Mix) [uhm... maybe on a second or third listen it'll be better]
Endless Dream (Virus-V Chillout Mix) [male vocals?! wtf?!]
