"i was very lucky to find this title. i never heard of pimpi before, this rivels moby's play for one of the best cd's ever made. i am terrible lucky for finding this. it was realesed in sep. of 2000 so i suppose word has not gotten out yet but this is a must have. that 214,063 will start to rapidly go up as soon as people hear this cd.it has a new age, electronica, funk, acid jazz sound. and if that sounds like just a mess of sound, it truely does not, it comes together in a almost nervanic arrangment of sounds. i said it before and i will say it again this is one of the best cd's i have heared."

I keep saying "This is nice" when I'm listening....

"I buy a lot of trance, world, Deep Forest, etc. type music. Though much of it starts to sound the same after a while, OverDream keeps popping to the top. I'll put it in my 6CD changer at work or in my car along with other similar stuff out of my collection, and as I'm listening, it's always OverDream that catches my attention and makes me say "This is creative. Different. Rewarding. Which CD is this???"Why? It isn't a long 90-120 BPM trance. It doesn't stop with one particular style. It blends a few voices in, but doesn't fall into the Indian/MiddleEast/... trap. It occasionally pulls in some latin style stuff, but I wouldn't call it "Brazilian world trance beat" -- just has influences.And it weaves its way from one rhythm to the next very nicely.All in all, well thought out, well produced, and gets you noddin your head in time with the music. Buy it. I wish Pimpi Arroyo had more to buy."

"if you`re not sure what mood you`re in for listening then this might be perfect for you. Can`t quite pin it down - a sort of mixture of `ambient drum and bass` to the translation of the play of light into percussion or electricity expressed as sound. Galactic Electric Eclectic. Technically very tight. Makes it sound easy. You can switch on - or switch off to this. Go globe-trotting, round the world in fifty six minutes; get it."
