No, you're not dreaming when looking at the prices of an original copy on Discogs, this record is really worth nearly 200€. That's a problem, because you become afraid to play it too much and wearing it out... But here's your chance of buying a brand new copy at a normal price!
It's a very rare production made by belgian legends. Aside from its rareness, it's expensive because it contains two major top-quality tracks with an incredible depth : White Lights, and Surrender.
White Lights is a very complex progressive journey full of refined details, starting with calm, soothing piece of muffled sounds, before it gets emotional with a simple yet wonderful piano part, and ending with lushy pads and resonant synths. Progressive can't get much better than that...
Surrender is much more dancefloor oriented, groovy, housy, but still a trance masterpiece. The vocals add a lot of personality to the track, and the guitar break is just incredible. Also, the climax (with that famous tribal drum) fits a summer party perfectly and makes you feel soooo gooood !
