Wow, alright.

PVD = Paul Van Dyk :thumbsup:

[Illuminated]

Personally I say We Are Alive.. and Nothing but you, but We Are Alive gets my top vote.

[PAguy]

How bout Words...a classic!

[Illuminated]

Words.

A classic indeed, a seven minute track that is worth listening to

[Tails]

Crush.

But yeah, I'd take Namistai over all of them -- and that's a PVD and BT production. :wink:

that would be my second favorite.

[Gizmo]

Tell Me Why

[Yakko Red]

out of those choices, for an angel.

My favorite though is defintiely the riddle(tell me why)

[Tails]

Tell Me Why is hot, too... I picked up a copy of that on vinyl at Tower of all places. They get good stuff now and again, even if it's generally domestic. :thumbsup:

His Global CD was awesome, I loved the DVD that was included in it, good deal :thumbsup:, and the music video remixes were awesome too. Animation looked freaky but the sound track sounds great also.

original version is awesome(instrumental) dont really like the club mix.

[agentorange]

first PVD track I ever heard was For an Angel, so I voted for that.....but I love We are Alive, Tell Me Why, and Crush

[Illuminated]

For An Angel has won the pool, at least till this point. :werd:

[3rdCoast]

tell me why

On an aside... in the closing moments of his set at Ultra 6, I noticed a girl attempting to take a picture of herself with the background of the amphitheatre. I asked her if she wanted me to take it for her and she declined, then asked me who it was that was spinning. I kinda paused for a sec and said..."PVD". She goes, "who is that ?". I said Paul Van Dyke, and she gives me this puzzled look as though I was crazy. Then she fuckin asked me if I knew how to get to space. I wanted to punch her.

:haha:

[DJZION]

BY FAR the best PVD Track ever is this:
Faithless - Bring My Family Back (Paul van Dyk Remix).
Its kind of rare, I HIGHLY Recommend you find this tune on
mp3. Its SO EMOTIONAL then gets so evil and hard.
The song is SPECIAL.
My 2nd fav is the PVD's Vandit Remix of Tell Me Why.

[Illuminated]

Looking into it, thanks.

Any one heard of any new CD's from him yet?
Or any new tracks out there?

[ItsGot2BeeTranZ]

Avenue

[original2k]

i kinda like "time will always tell" i think that's what it's called, with the vocals by his wife i believe, correct me if i'm wrong

[jediprince8007]

YES AVENUE is Hot also. i picked up an Import of that single theres tons of remixes to it.. i fancy it because its kinda fast :banana:. good to make out to. haha

[tinybutterfli]

wow, how did i miss this thread? lol

My favorite track is Another Way. Never get sick of it. It was even my ring tone for a while (had to get a new phone!) yes I'm a dork :)

alright then, so far it's still For an Angel as our PVD Favorite track vote.. :D

[Sheisty McFuckerton]

Great thread, I feel like a retard for not finding it sooner...

gotta say that PVD has got to be one of my absolute favorite DJ's of all time, ever.... We Are Alive is probably the #1 song to me, but I gotta say the Nothing But You remix (last track of Reflections) is absolutely fantastic...

if anyone finds the mp3 of that faithless song, let me know, methinks I'll have to hear it

Yeah how could you guys not have Another Way up there? By far, his best work.

I so agree, so get pumped when I hear it being thrown down, and it never gets old. :raveon:

[iminxtc]

live at homelands may 28th 2000 is bad ass.. but thats a set not a track

[Jay Selway]

Remix of Binary Finary track. I forget the name.

[Illuminated]

Oh dayum we got a tie! :D

8 :: We Are Alive
8 :: For an Angel

Keep those votes coming.

Hey, tinybutterfli, that song, Another Way is indeed phat, chill to sit down, relax, take some of those hard liquor drinks and just feel the music. :raveon:

[Bemps]

I agree.... Another Way is my favorite from Paul, followed by Together We will Conquer (-- w/ the lyrics time will always tell --- as someone posted earlier)

There is a rumor going around about a new Second Sun track that paul may or may not have remixed that is quite wicked. His rework of Ralph and Whalen - Full Contact is wicked too :)

[soofung]

Hey how come time of our lives isn't there?

[djrollzroyce]

definitly the we are alive.... and the cirrus remix of it is OUTSTANDING!!!! the rest of the refe lections album is not as good.

[djrollzroyce]

ohhhhhhh smack i meant time of our lives.... whoooooops silly me... DOH

[djrollzroyce]

good question why is it not up there? WTF

[tinybutterfli]

while time of our lives is fun to hear live (a few times) I would not consider it anywhere near Paul's best production work. It borders on cheesy. Reflections as a whole was a big disappointment, IMHO. It doesn't come close to Out There & Back and previous studio work.

Just my $.02

[tinybutterfli]

Wait, when did PvD remix this? I'd love to hear it! I've heard the original and its :thumbsup:

[spiggums]

agreed...

speaking of which, his remix of "how we used to live" is pretty dope...

but then, I just love Sarah's voice...

mmmmm.... I should play something St. Etienne oriented tonight :yes:

[djrollzroyce]

dood .... time of our lives... must be the best... where is it?

[djrollzroyce]

yeah i agree reflections is ttttttttttttttraaaaaaashhhhh
but that track s hot.. not the original but the remixes are hot

[agentorange]

time of our lives is ok but it's far from his best. The best track off Reflections is Connected, which may not be saying much but to me it sounds alot like his older work which I most certainly enjoy.

:werd: to that bro.

well, personally I believe that his CD Reflections is just another one of his best chill down tracks, you know?

PVD has it a long way, and he still continues to surprise me with every new track he makes, I've had my best times listening to most of his CD's. All I gotta say is that he's got the best talent for Trance music that I've heard of in years :thumbsup:.

[Bemps]

I think Paul did more of a rework of Full Contact, his kick and not much else. I've heard it in a set or two.... awesome piano in it. Yeah, I agree about Reflections. I expected a lot more, and was overall disappointed. Out there and Back is such an amazing album and Reflections just didn't do much for me. The 2xLP release of Reflections should be nice though, with many remixes ... check out http://www.paulvandyk.de/low/discography.asp?id=964


I do like kaleidoscope and look forward to getting the full length version.

Nice, I didn't know he was releasing a special editon Reflections cd. Have you heard the Zurdo soundtrack? So good! A lot of really great productions :thumbsup:

[Bemps]

Yeah, I got the Zurdo soundtrack... its nice and kinda different. I know there is a Japanese edition of Reflections but the second cd has just the normal remixes from the 12" singles... ie marco v and starecase remixes of connected etc. The Reflections remix 2xLP is, as of right now, only going to be released on 12" and will contain all new remixes/reworks by paul himself. I'm not sure if it is going to see a cd release, but the columbia ep did, so who knows.

I think the second sun track is called the spell. He played it at space WMC and blew the fookin roof off that joint on the build up. the vocals are wicked too. He has had this track in his quivver for over a year now and will be releasing it on vandit this year

PvD remixed the Spell a while ago though. I can't remember if the one he dropped at Space was a new mix of it - most likely.

I remember him closing with a mix of it at Exit when I saw him in June of '02. I love how he pitches the vocals on it! Very nice! :thumbsup:

Oh and his Space set was :thumbsup: :evilred: :hyper:

[Lectronik]

With out a doubt, How We Used to Live is PvD's best track. That whole record is FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

[Lost Inhibition]

most definately Seven Ways. the 2003 remix on the Global CD just ownz me

[MMIIMM]

For me its either For an Angel or How much can you take? The second song is an old school trance song, and was on one of my old Trance CD's from those classic German ZYX Music CDs. That was when Paul van Dyk and Cosmic Baby were going under name The Visions of Shiva.

:owned: ?

Seven Ways is the type of track I'd listen to when taking a few shots of vodka and just sit back and relax.. he's the best at doing that sort of thing.. I wish PVD could come to Cubik, no way in hell I'll miss that one!

Most of things he produces are trance(his own brand of trance)

Most of the time he playes massives or festivals he plays trance(his, tiesto, AVB, etc type)

HOWEVER, all the times i have seen him play in clubs: Progressive House/Trance... mostly prog house. There are very few pure trance tracks he plays in club settings... and i've seen him in many different clubs in many different cities... Even in Miami(Space) and NYC(Roxy)(trance places of USA) he played prog. house/trance

[Dj Tetrofin]

CRUSH!!!!

[Lynchx]

pvd = boo ,boring to me

[Calen]

We Are Alive was one of the first trance songs I ever heard. :affection:

[lb0236]

seeing him live this past summer in the pouring rain for 4hrs.. was fucking amazing. I <3 NYC & PVD

I love everything he makes.. it all makes me so fucking energized and wanna dance;)
My phone ringer is we are alive!!! :):)

but I'd have to say for an angel...mmmmmm

[dug]

Blue -Spanish Lullaby (PVD remix)

But I love them all . It is hard to pick jus tone !!!!
