"I had never heard of Dave Kendall before I purchased this CD. I was ecstatic that a sequal was made, and I bought it completely on faith that it would be true to it's predacessor, Paul Oakenfold's "Voyage Into Trance", which is one of my all-time favorite goa/psytrance mixes. I am definitely not disappointed. In my opinion, it's slightly darker than Oakey's VIT, but very similar in concept.There is a theme of "Seven Chakras", which are explained one by one in little audio clips throughout the album... I guess some meditative practice Kendall is into.Oh yeah, and what's up with starting and ending the mix with the same song? Wierd...All in all, anyone into goa/psytrance would totally dig this album. I'm really hope this catches on like the "Tranceport" series and there are more volumes to this!!"

Kendall has a unique sound, but is too repetitive.

"I was bobbing my head pretty good for the first few tracks, but then it started to get old pretty fast. I like his unique sound, but there is not enough variety and transition on this disc. Unfortunately, a lot of the songs sound too similar. Perhaps it will grow on me and I'll edit my review, but for now, you can do better with other discs (see my other reviews)."
