私はTIESTO関係でBTを知りました。"LOVE COMES AGAIN"を聴いていいなと思い、CD買って聴いてみた。BT最高じゃないですか!DISC1は4.Somnambulist
5.Force of Gravity
が非常にいいです。DISC2はりミックス版が収録されていますが、TIESTOのリミックス曲が最高です!!私はこれからも彼に注目していきたいと思う。ただこのCDはジャンルレスなのでどんな人にもお勧めできると思います。

独特の浮遊感ある音世界に酔えます。踊れます。

最近ニュースクールブレイクスに傾倒ぎみのBTの新作。全13曲中4曲はロックバラードっぽくて、ブレイクス目当てで買った自分としては×。5、10、11はBT得意の流麗なエピックハウスで○。残りの2、3、4、7、8あたりがブレイクス(1はイントロ)。なかでもラップをフィーチャーした2は好みです。「ブレイド2」の5曲目や、「トゥームレイダー」の7曲目を聞いてBT好きになっただけにこれは○。この人のサウンドにラップというスタイルはドライブ感があり、近未来のアンダーグラウンドなクラブのシーンにピッタリ。6分超の長尺な曲がほとんどで、トータル78分超です。

Ein Jammer, dass die Scheibe scheinbar nicht in Deutschland releast wurde? Einfach weil ihr dann die Würdigung fehlt...die Musik von BT gefällt mir durch die Bank, auch aufgrund ihrer wie ich meine positiven Ausstrahlung.
Diese Scheibe enthält in ganz hervorragender Klangqualität auch einige einfach sehr sehr schöne Stücke, die so fein aufgelöst und inszeniert sind, dass ich damit gerne gute Anlagen teste und Klangqualität beurteile. Meine wärmste Empfehlung für eine sehr breite musikalische Bandbreite!

The man who delivers emotion with technology, does it again!
2003年8月6日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
The album title says it all, Emotional Technology.
From his early works, Ima and ESCM, thru Movement in Still Life, BT has stood almost alone as the man who can make electronic music rock. His music has soul, it makes you want to dance, it makes you want to cry, it makes you want to listen, again and again.
This album starts where Movement in Still Life ends, with the final 'comms beep' sample from Satellite.
Then it's straight into a sequence of strong vocal tracks, the format of the album reflecting that successfully established with Movement in Still Life.
Knowledge of Self takes the feel of Hip Hop Phenomenon to a new level. Snappy rapping, awesome editing, and the groove is straight up and running. `If you want some...come and get some'!
Superfabulous then establishes the credentials for the new album. It's back to the 80's, with arcade game samples, Human League synths and 'girly' vocals. This should be the next single. (IMHO).
We then fall straight into the first single taken from the album, Somnambulist. Again it's an 80's drum machine sound, and a perfect pop song. Looking at the single credits, there are a claimed 6,178 edits on the vocal! Modern sequencer timing just isn't good enough for BT, and the whole album has been given a severe work-over (in Pro-Tools?) by Mike DiMattia.
The Force of Gravity takes us back to 'old' style BT. More instrumental than vocal, with huge vistas of time and space. Here we get brief reminders of some of the signature BT samples and breaks, a Floyd-like chorused spoken vocal, and again an 80's feel. Is it just me, or is there more than just a hint of Blue Monday here...
Dark Heart Dawning is laid back, soulful. Real drums mix with the machines, funky guitar and the reverse reverb vocal ease you on through the song, chilled, relaxed, and oh so cool with those backing vocals.
The weakest song on the album is The Great Escape. Somehow the Caroline Lavelle vocal just doesn't cut through the BT production as it should. It's a track that most artists would kill for, but it's not quite up to par for BT.
Paris is the longest track on the album, and gets us straight back on track. (Quite literally with the train sample). It's huge, uplifting dance. Simply BT at his very best.
Circles hits you in a similar way to Love Peace and Grease from ESCM. It's computers meets heavy metal guitar, and it rocks and rocks. You'll be hearing this on a movie soundtrack, advert or TV sting in the not to distant future, I'm sure!
Last Moment of Clarity brings back the New Order influence with a self confessed Peter Hook style bass line from BT. It's a truly great vocal by Karina Ware. Vintage stuff indeed, four to the floor in some style.
We then drop in to a huge hyper-space with Communicate. BT harks back to Ima, but again with 80's style moments. It's big, it's uplifting.
Then, as with Movement in Still Life, the album starts to wind you down and chill you out with it's closing tracks. Firstly with Animals, and then finally with The Only Constant is Change.
Time to lie back with the headphones on, listen to the music, and just stare at the stars. The lighters will be waving above the heads of the crowd when this gets played live.
BT never fails to stir the emotions, with heartfelt lyrics and food for thought the size of the universe...
Emotional Technology is another giant step for BT, and it's an essential listen for anyone who loves good music, good production, or just wants something that educates and entertains at the same time. Calling it dance music, really doesn't do it justice at all.
Buy it today, and then buy all of the previous albums if you don't already own them.......

The next generation of music has begun.
2003年8月6日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Technological progression is wonderful because it allows something to be made that could never have been made before. BT's Emotional technology is that something.
The history of music is a history of people struggling with the limitations of their instruments to convey emotion. Only recently have the musical tools become available to create music that is truly without limits. The results are written all over "Emotional Technology."
The intro track sets the stage for the assault to come, with words fading in and out of a background of organized noise. The next three tracks then lay waste to every pop and techno convention known. Voices speed up and slow down at will, get chopped up and stuttered until they're indishtinguishable from music. Superfabulous comes to a dead stop right in the middle while Rose "don't you wish you still had me Marilyn Manson" McGowan argues with Scott McCloud about flipping people off at the Getty museum. Its hilarious, and it works by suddenly bringing undistorted vocals to the forefront for the next verse. The biggest surprise in JC's track "Force of Gravity" is how little he sounds like a pop crooner; it sounds more like an ex-pop icon making his first teetering steps to becoming a full 3-D person.
The vocabulary of the whole disc is miles away from the strict 4th grade level of most everything else out there; 'complicated', 'acclimated', 'frustrated', 'somnambulated'rhyme together like it's no big deal. It's a fresh change from stale yo-yo-flow-go, and challenges the listener in a way that most albums never even attempt. Challenge itself is a major part of the disc. Words and music are often layered and distorted to the point that they can just barely be made out. Only 'Garbage' and classical music approach the intricacy of "Emotional Technology."
Emotionally, this is a much more intimate album than BT's previous work. Almost all of the tracks are more lyrically driven, and the results are mostly good. Sentiments are realistic and understandable, coming off as a true revelation instead of silly posturing. Honest feelings of hope and desire manifest themselves, evident in Somnambulist's chorus: "...simply being loved, is more than enough."
Of course not everything works. Many will probably find fault not only in the number of slow and vocal driven songs, but also in how sparse they sound in comparison to the rich layers on the rest of the disc. They grow on you with time, however, and break up what would otherwise have been a bit of an ear mugging.
If you're a fan of progressive trance, Jan Johnston, stutter edits, Hybrid, glitch, audiophile stereos, Way Out West or Garbage just shut up and buy the thing. The rest of you: try listening to a couple tracks, spend some time with it. This is one of the most original and experimental albums in years, and worth every bit of attention it gets.

An Engaging Masterpiece
2012年4月7日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Long time customer first time reviewing.
I can start by acknowledging that Brian "BT" Transeau is indeed a gifted musician, though it's been nearly a decade since this albu's release I became a fan two years ago with "Movement in Still Life" and his latest "These Hopeful Machines".
This album proves that creative people are free to do whatever they want with their material. I know some complained about not being fully trance. I dig the alternate rock track just as much as the trance tracks because he can indeed create anything he wants rather than limiting himself to the genres that he was famous for as much as a composer, singer or band can experiment with their music as they desire no one should completely let go of their roots....ever. This album proves my point, some tracks are fresh for any trance album but there also traditional BT tracks as well. Here are my opinions of the album track by track.
The Meeting of a Hundred Yang- 3/5 - At first I though I was hearing "Satellite" again until track 2 kicked in.
Knowledge of Self- 3/5 - The aggressive nature of his "Movement in Still Life" is still a recognized feature that I hope BT has not permanently abandoned.
Superfabulous- 4/5 - A hard progressive rock anthem I can's stop banging my head on.
Somnambulist- 5/5 - I first heard it in Dance Dance Revolution. That's when I first had interest in BT as an individual artist.
The Force of Gravity- 5/5 - A smooth trance/electronica with catchy "voice" refrain followed by an ethereal chorus in which really take with the flow of the chorus.
Dark Heart drawing- 4/5 - An engaging alt. rock track that one may not it comes from a trance composer at all.
The Great Escape- 2/5 - One of the lesser tracks that you may end up tuning out.
Paris- 5/5 - One that should be destined to be one of BT's signature track with it's touching lyrics, lustful singing tone, danceable beat, and musical quality chorus in which you can dance to and at the same you feel the inspiration and euphoria that it gives, especially if you know the lyrics. One to listen to when in eustress, when you're getting or doing exactly what you want.
Circles- 4/5- Another alt. rock track that kind of sets you away from the flow of the album. Enjoyable nevertheless.
The Last Moment of Clarity- 3/5 - Ant trance beat can become a great piece of music if the given time with it.
Communicate- 4/5 - Ditto with "The Last Moment of Clarity" only a little better.
Animals- 5/5 - Definitely a head banging alt. rock ballad that can completely fall in that category without much to do with trance.
The Only Constant is Change- 2/5- I it were up to me I would switch places with this track and "Paris" they keep making the classic mistake of closing albums with downbeat and sometimes rather uninteresting ballads, and would serve better as an interlude.
In conclusion, this album is an emphasis on true creative freedom and the mixed reaction from fans and critics is what proves the risks behind them I look forward to what BT is cooking up next. Buttom line: I thank Tiesto for introducing me to him and I really hope they work together again as well.
