The Sound Of The Season series includes in its 13th version of the annual selection of fine tracks, in different colors, which have brought to a boil in the clubs and on the Festival floors during the summer of 2013, the party people in the world. For me, the pursued as a person's career Väth's for 15 years, it is particularly pleasing to hear that on CD1 for a little housier construction as otherwise the arc with the "old guard" of Techno like Ben Sims or Luke Slater aka Planetary Assault system is stretched. But also killer tracks from newcomers like Sawlin or Sam Paganini ("Prisma" as one of the central monster tracks on this compilation) concedes Väth in his set the place perfectly so that one can say in summary that the CD1-stressed as expected the bow of House to Techno ,
The CD2 provides more space for experiments and start the Ibiza Daylight feeling already from the first track "Images" of Makam in so harmoniously playful melancholy verspulte way a that one is tempted to ask the question why it just again will last one year, to Cocoon and Sven Väth will deny at Amnesia Monday. Other highlights on the CD2 I see in some fanatical Dixon Edit classic "The Wanderer" from Romanthony, and in the pieces of Lawrence and Roman wing which round out the matter in masterly fashion and appear self-contained. Also noteworthy is the refined appearance of the double-digipack CD with hot foil stamping, which visually enhances every CD shelf, you realize that the presentation of the product plays an important role in itself. Here you just can not go wrong.
