08: Favorite movies

Dietmar — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 04:47:34 +0000

There is an international ensemble of movies when looking at my favorite movies of 08. Movies from France, USA, Germany, Denmark and the Czech Republic. I should explain that I watched them in 08 but many of them were already released before. That is because my main media to watch movies is the DVD. If I am really interested in watching a movie I like having all the little other features like commentary etc about it as well and I guess some of the movies really should be watched on the big screen, some of them are ok on the tv screen as well. So, here they are, my favorite movies, in no particular order:

Odette Toulemonde

The Dark Knight

The Darjeeling Limited

08: Best trance tunes

Dietmar — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 02:51:55 +0000

There were times when I looked back at what was released on the trance sector throughout the year and I came to the conclusion, that for me there weren’t that many “extraordinary” tracks out there to be mentioned in a “Best of” list. So the list contained only 3 or 5 really classy tunes. 08 was certainly different. It started very slowly, I remember long time gaps in which I hardly bought anything, but the 2nd half repaired a lot having some major releases and effecting a Top 10 list of my favorite trance tunes. So, here they are:

10: Andy Duguid – Wasted (Original Mix)

9: Lemon & Einar K – Anticipation (Original Mix)

8: Kandi & Neumann – Let go (Original Mix)

7: David Newsum: Sand Dune (Original Mix)

6: Master & Nickson – Out there, 5th dimension (Daniel Kandi’s Bangin’ Mix)

5: John Askew – Fade to black (Original Mix)

4: Ata – Blue skies (Temple One Remix)

3: Anjunabeats – Volume One (7skies & Static Blue Remix)

2: Temple One – World Beyond (Original Mix)

1: Redstar – Rush (Karl G Remix)

favorite tracks at the moment

The lack of regular personal charts in this blog doesn’t mean that this year was a bad year for trance in my view – no, there were lot of good tunes actually. But there were phases when you had to wait a while until something really good was released again. And besides that there were times that I didn’t really listen to music that much at all. Nevertheless, at the moment I do and these are my favorite trance tracks right now:

Something older: Robert Nickson – Close your eyes (Dub Mix)

Something older but this remix was just released in the download shops: Dogzilla – Without you (John O’ Callaghan Mix)

Something new: Kai del Noi – Beyond Doubt (Original Mix)
