CD Reviews

It makes me fly

brainvoid | 11/29/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I really don't like to review things because I can't never think of what to say but since no one had written anything about it I couldn't resist.

So, this album is absolutely stunning. I haven't been able to stop listening to it since I bought it. It compiles a complete range of emotions with every song and is perfect to let yourself drown in the voidness of existence without keeping you away from thinking... in anything but in the music.

The Dany Elman-esque songs are very interesting, but my absolute favorite is Chopin's " Nocturne In E Flat Major Op 9 No 2", one of my all time favs and now performed with Maksim's characteristic sounds... just fantastic."

Great album

"I purchased this after hearing the "Totentanz" track. I was pleasantly surprised to find the rest of the album is fantastic as well. The tracks on "Variations" are diverse. If you like bond or Vanessa-Mae's "dance" versions of classical pieces, you'll like all of Maksim's albums. This is an import so it's a bit of a wait on the shipping, but well worth the extra time."
