Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

Just Beautiful music! Submitted on: 2008-10-03 |
|
| Jes is as great musically as she is good-looking. You won't find one bad tune on this collection of midtempo offerings. I was stunned by her version of the classic Pink Floyd hit 'Wish You Were Here'. 'Heaven' is remixed here, from her cd entitled 'Disconnect' and is great. Jes possesses a sultry, expressive voice that connects (sorry) with the listener immediately. She seems to have the pipes to sing just about anything and to do it well. Some other standout songs are 'Ghost' (simply excellent) and 'In Ohm' (interesting to use a term of electrical resistance as a song title) and 'As The Rush Comes'. By all means, pick up this cd! You won't be sorry. |

Beautiful Voice... Great Songs Submitted on: 2008-07-24 |
|
| I've always been a fan of Jes and her collaborations with other artists such as Deepsky and Motorcycle, so I was really excited to know she had released her own CDs, her voice is definitely one of my favorites! "Disconnect" just makes me want to dance, while "Into the Dawn" is more relaxing and mellow. I can't say one is better than the other, it just depends on your mood! |

A Stunningly Beautiful Album... As Long As It's Not Defective Submitted on: 2008-03-04 |
|
As some of the other reviewers have pointed out, the initial pressing of the album was flawed; 4 of the songs cut off well before they were finished. These tracks are as follows:
1. Heaven (Mÿon Remix) [should be 6:01, cuts off at 4:35]
3. It's You I Need [should be 4:29, cuts off at 2:04]
6. Imagination (Richard Robson Remix) [should be 4:06, cuts off at 1:56]
11. Ghost (Lime Chill Remix) [should be 4:32, cuts off at 1:42]
If you are unfortunate enough to receive a defective copy, send a nice, friendly e-mail (remember, they're as disappointed about the defective copies as we are) to "info at ultrarecords dot com" (Amazon apparently won't let us put e-mail addresses in our reviews). After contacting them, I received a new, flawless copy within about a week. After thoroughly inspecting the packaging for both the new CD, and the old, defective CD, I can tell you that there is no discernable difference between the two. Hopefully, you get lucky and purchase the new pressing but, if not, the helpful folks at Ultra Records will get you a new copy quickly.
Now, a few words about the album. It's a little more downtempo / chillout than Jes' previous album, Disconnect, but still as trancy as you'd expect from her. Bottom line: it's beautiful music, hooking you in with the very first track (the way "Ghost" did on Disconnect), and compelling you to experience the rest. If you haven't heard Disconnect yet, buy that album first; Into The Dawn really is a follow-up companion piece to Jes' 2007 masterpiece. Now, I'm just really looking forward to hearing how Armin van Buuren and DJ Tiësto incorporate some of her songs into their mixes later this year. |

Excellent CD, poor quality control Submitted on: 2008-02-20 |
|
| I absolutely love the music that is on this CD, however, as the previous review noted, three songs are definitely cut off right in the middle. Potential buyers, be warned- excellent music, but extremely possible technical malfunctions. |
