Classic alternative club music returns
speet23 | Twin Cities, MN USA | 12/07/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Conjure One's self-titled album is one of my favorite purchases of 2003, and the single for "Center of the Sun" is at the top of my singles collection. Unlike most techo/club-esque remixes in the past 10 years or so, Junkie XL and Pete Lorimer-29 Psalms have put together incredible upbeat versions without losing the feel of the original track. Poe's lyrics still shine through, but with added processing sound even more beautiful and mysterious than the album version. The "chilled out remix" by Solarstone extends deeper than the original and sounds more of a dreamlike state. Fans of any 'chill-out' compilation will love this track immensely. 5 stars for Rhys Fulber (1/2 of Frontline Assembly) for teaming up with these great mix geniuses!"
I am at the Center of the Sun

"Center of the Sun is now my favorite single off of Rhys Fulber's Conjure One album.



Breaking away from Bill Leebs of the group Delerium, Rhys Fulber created for himself Conjure One, and debuted with a self-titled album.



Center of the Sun is a more uplifting, relaxed version of Delerium's songs. Eerie synths, beautiful strings, even more elegant vocals provided by Poe.



"They say the most horrible things, but I hear violins."



Junkie XL's mix of Center of the Sun is a great track, Junkie XL's classic acoustic sounds and moving beat. Filtered vocals set the mix's vocals apart from the original's, but not in a demeaning way. Solarstone's mix takes chilled to another level combining ambient sounds creating a amazxing combination of the original vocals and new sounds.



Amazing track, great single.



(*To elaborate on the previous reviewer's comment on the song being on the X-Men movie, X2: X-Men United, he was correct. I was obssessed with that movie, even bought the soundtrack to it. I have never heard that song on the movie, and the movie only offers a original score done by John Ottman. Re-watching the movie, the song is playing in the background in the X-Men mansion, after the scene with Senator Kelly and Stryker, it shows Collosus and Flea drawing and making fun of Rogue and Bobby, who are about to kiss. This is right before Wolverine comes back into the mansion after visiting Alkali Lake. I thought it was awesome to hear this song, even though it was in-directly. Genius to do that, Bryan Singer or whoever.)"
Gets Better Every Time...

"This is one of those remixes that will be in your iPod for a long, long time. Pete Lorimer's ,ix is always a pleaser, even to people who normally scoff at dance music. Solar Stone has a perfect chill out mix...perfect for something soothing. Junkie XL is a decent mix as well, but the 29 Palms mix is what keeps me coming back. And the song loses none of its intensity with each listen...truly a song that gets better every time."
