"This mix is amazing. While it contains many anthems that any trance fan likely has a few times over (Universal Nation, 9pm (Darey Mix), Gouryella, Carte Blanche), it is mixed extremely well. The lead track, "Baby She's a lot Like Me" is simply beautiful and worth the price alone. He also lays down a gospel preacher over the buildup of Universal Nation which is very amazing. The only complaint I have is 14 songs on a 71 min album, which limits the length of some songs, but again, since it is so well mixed you hardly notice. This is a worthwhile purchase for anyone who likes trance and is looking for something different other than the latest big UK DJ trance mix (not that there is anything wrong with that, but its nice to support American trance DJs, bc they are out there, somewhere). I highly recommend this CD as well as seeing Thomas Michael if he is ever around your area."
A superb blend of melody.

"Wow...A #1 album. This mix consists of some of the best sets I've heard all year. Thomas Michael has officially made a name for himself with this excellent mix of music. This cd had me rocking out while sitting on the floor of a local record store for over an hour. Taking me by surprise, I found most of his sets to be inspiring and uplifting. His controlled rhythm echoes some of the great trance djs such as oakie and k.c. A must for any trance veteran looking to expand on the mixes put together in the year 2000."
Best progressive trance cd in years

"All I can say, is that I wish I was in Melbourne for this set. This reminded me of the days when I used to rave and Thomas would shake floor and have everybody crowded around the speakers. Finally. A cd that does him justice and really sums up his skills of mixing uplifting, progrssive dance tunes. Crank up the bass and volume for track 4. You won't forget it."
Powerful Mix

"What a seamless mix, it just grabs you from start to finish and dosen't give you a chance to rest in between. A few of the tracks are becomming regulars on many trance dj's albums, but Thomas Michael puts a new spin on them and delivers it with his classic energy filled fashion. I have seen this man spin four times in the last five years and he always gets people on their feet and dancing as no other dj can do. If you can find it track down one of his older mix tapes called SUPERNOVA, that is his best set ever."
