Song Title Time Price Visit our audio page for more information Full length from Dutch trance group who have proved their success with two U.S. radio singles, 'Take Me Away (Into The Night)' & 'Diving' (both included here). Enhanced portion includes a bonus CD-ROM video for 'Take Me Away (Into The Night)'. Ultra Records. 2003. I have come across 4 String's "Believe" cd earlier this week at one of my favorite record shops. I wasn't sure if I wanted to get it so I opted for Martin Gore's solo album "Counterfeit2". And then I was recently listening to a German import cd of trance music and on the second disc, it contained 4 Strings' "Day Time". I loved what I heard. "Day Time" is a reminder of what I love about trance music, the angelic female vocals and the stunning melodies on the bpm scale of over 100. Something I would hear at a nightclub on a Saturday night. A couple of days later, I went back to the same record store and bought "Believe". Yes, the music is absolutely cheesy in that Ian Van Dahl, Ilo, and DJ Sammy sort of cheese but I loved the cd. Vanessa Van Hemert has a beautiful voice. Vocalists like Vanessa is what appeals to me to trance music. Her vocals lend an ethereal feel to the songs. The only flaws I found with the cd is that the instrumentals got a bit repetitive for me. I thought the group's strength is with their vocalist Vanessa. And the cheesiness of "Forever Young". Now how many artists and bands have written songs called "Forever Young"? I honestly could have lived without that particular song. Asides from flaws, I enjoyed "Believe" a lot more than I thought I would. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
