An interesting aside for an interesting band.......2006-03-08

First of all a warning. This is a totally acoustic album and is made up of tracks from their earlier albums, such as Lost. With some songs this is good, particuarly 'Take My Love' in which the singer, Ian Parry, really takes charge and proves his mettle. No wonder the guy gets so much work, from his own projects to working with Tamas Szekeres to being in groups like Elegy.

However it's only possible to give this ep three stars as it is, indeed, just five tracks long. So it's really more of a curio for fans than any sort of must have release. More so because not all the tracks fit comfortably into an acoustic scenario - ie Spirits loses much of it's inherent venom.

Still, Elegy fans should pick this up if it comes on the market cheaply.

Great Melodic Black Metal!.......2002-09-30

The members of this band all site their guitar influences to Power Metal (since the guitarists used to be in a Power Metal band) and it is obivious in some of the riffs on this CD. Although not as creative as the previous release "Songs Of The Desolate Ones", "Modern Instinct's Purity" shows a growth in sound (and almost a whole new band line-up). I say if you are a fan of Black Metal and any Melodic Metal, go check out all Mephistopheles' album catalog!

my personal fave.......2005-05-19

I'm not a trance fan for the most part, but I love Armin, no idea why, but that's not what you're here to read so I'll shutup about it.

Of all of his mixes, Basic Instinct my absolute favorite. It covers a lot of bases. It's dancy and energetic without being too epic/oakenfoldish. The argonaut track is a nice warmer-up song and the album progressively picks up through track 2, and then is suddenly issued a triple dose of get-off-your-ass-and-effing-dance with Yahel's "runaway". It kinda rides a nice plateau through the next few tracks and just gets down right sexy with futurebreeze's "smile" (no, really, this song makes me horn..eh, you get the point). Anyway, it continues a nice, dancey groove through the next few tracks before getting to the next yahel song "Suger 1", a darker, moodier piece that otherwise I would almost think awkward for a typical trance mix, but it seems to sit well here.

Armin is God.......2003-01-02

I've been listening to Trance music only recently. I've got stuff from Oakenfold, Ian van Dahl, Paul van Dyk, etc. and like them all. But Armin van Buuren is the bomb, is God, is the Big Bang. He's the ultimate when it comes to the most mind-blowing trance mixes. This mix is awesome. And I agree with the other reviewers about the CD1 v. CD2 difference. Don't let that deter you. This is Armin at his best.

How can it be that Chicago is world-class in everything except Trance? I wish Armin would visit here at least once a year and turn us all on to mixes like this one. Basic Instinct? Get it. You'll not be disappointed!!!!!

Not as Good As "Boundaries" But Solid Armin Trance !!.......2002-05-16

The problem with a 2 cd set...ANY 2 cd set is that you are invariably bound to end up with one that blows your mind and the other that can be used for a frisbee !! Armin's "Basic Instinct" follows this pattern and while I'm a huge Armin fan it still stings a little to pay the high price of a double disk to get one solid cd of material.

Now for the Good News: CD 2 is fantastic and keeps hope alive that DJ's can still rip it loose in terms of energy !! CD 2 is classic Armin....down and dirty....hard as a nail and masterfully mixed, with perfect crescendos and dazzling melodies and driving beats !! As for CD 1, if it had not been in the same package, I would not have guessed this to be Armin's work...it lacks his pacing, inspiration or imagination. It falls into what I call "sofa" trance....the sound runs together and creates an effect that makes you sleepy and zoned out...not that its not loud and driving but rather monotonous and not up to his standards. Great for a nap but avoid this one on the ride home from a club...it really makes your eyes feel heavy !! I'm a huge hard trance fan and CD 2 delivers...while on CD 1 you will be hard pressed to find a tune that really puts that big sinister smile on your face !!

Overall I'd give it 4 lollies because of hardpounding trance-dancibles like "ghosts", "touch me", "exhale", "green heaven", "amber", and "cloudwalking"...all on CD 2 !! Good stuff but only if you can afford it !!

full blown trance.......2002-04-11

Armin does it like Oakie but more upbeat. Most of his spins you won't find in the US clubs, especially LA where im from. So originality is the key to his sound.
He's destined for stardom in Europe and then who knows?

Never practice lawschool Armin!.......2001-10-25

You should stick with what you're doing now. Mixing great albums, remixing good tunes and rocking the world as a deejay. This CD though only has a good A-side, the B-side is not that good. However the A-side makes more than good. Top tracks by the uber-talented James Holden and a remix of the loveparade classic techno stomper; Der Klang der Familie by Dr. Motte.

Rush to the store to buy
