Nicholas, will you please stop ruining your best album and leave it alone? You got some mf nerve to write the dullest remixes possible (a copy/paste job into a mainstream business techno template) and name them "Evolution" mixes. If you think this is "evolution" you better go back to school and study Darwin again.

His cover of Bon Iver is ultra cringe. Horrible vocals and completely dull and generic instrumental. Bon Iver is a good influence, but damn you got to up your skills Nick. He's gone so downhill over the last 10 years that I wonder whether he's still the man behind Chicane.

Chicane, RIP Commercial True Oldschool Trance 1995-2000. And now 2003 Pop style. But, few tracks really awesome, for example: "In Praise of the Sun" "Spirit" "The Nothing Song" "Titles"

And those two albums (Far From The Maddening Crowds and Behind The Sun) don't feature any Sigur Rós ripoffs. I agree that it is stupid to copy songs and melodies from Sigur Rós and I'm not trying to defend his newer albums (imo they suck) but trying to say that you can still like the "Old Chicane" without liking his newer stuff.

Agreed. That's a very strange situation, nothing criminal though and his songs are still hearable.

After years of hunting it down to no avail, Far From the Maddening Crowds is the best trance album I've ever heard- better than Magik 6, better than ASOT 2004, ect. It simply transcends the genre of trance. Behind the Sun almost seems like an after-thought of downtempo-ism by comparison.

Being slightly drunk and listening to "Poppiholla" almost brings tears of joy to my eyes! That is not a rape of Sigur Rós... He brought that melody to a much higher level!!!

When it comes to pure music, the music that makes you realize that yes there's something like soul in me, then undoubtedly Chicane is one of those few DJs who come up with such tracks, ranging from Saltwater to Daylight & even Locking Down & Autumn Tactics. Love you & love the world !!! :)
