Synopsis

Album Description
Lasgo are much more than faceless producers with a pretty vocalist. A trio of equal merits,they each bring a hefty contribution to the band. Peter Luts, the eldest of the three, is the studio wizard crafting the beats and sounds that are at the core of the Lasgo experience. Dave McCullen contributes the lyrics and melodies in addition to working on the music with Peter. And then there is Evi Goffin, the centerpiece, the focal point, the iconic star. Dave and Peter, both of whom were DJ-ing on the Belgian scene for years before meeting at a local record store where Peter worked, their first project was Astroline,a very dance-based affair that was influenced by Peter's heroes including: Tiësto, Ferry Corsten and Paul van Dyk. Central Station. 2005.

CD Reviews

A shock to the trance system at first...but actually cutting
Daniel W. Kelly | Long Island, NY United States | 02/16/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Lasgo's trance on their first album was stunning--and most of us (including myself) expected more of that here. While the lead of single Surrender and about 3 other singles delivered, when I first bought this disc I was hugely disappointed--until now, when my senses catch up with me. This is the sign of a true group that stays on the cutting edge of dance music, and moved from the oversaturated trance sound to the explosion of retro 80s electro house. And the tracks are incredible--even featuring a remake of Thompson Twins' "Hold Me Now", a 'new wave' ballad "True" which is clearly an ode to Camouflage's "That Smiling Face", and the fantastic "Only You" which borrows its riff directly from Silver Pozoli's "Around My Dream."



Brilliant CD that was ahead of its time and deserves the recognition instead of the rejection."
Power Dance Songs To Power Ballads... This Album Is awesome!
Michael A. Monroe | Columbus, Ohio | 05/12/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

""Far Away" is one of the best dance albums I've heard in some time... I loved Lasgo's first album and still continually listen to it off the hook as well... On "Far Away"... the song that stands out the most to me is "True"!



The first thing that caught my attention on the album was the third song "Deep In Your Heart"... "you were longing for love!" It is an upbeat ballad and is very simple but dreamy as heck! The song pertains to a person who says they are somewhat of a player and they want to keep it casual, but secretly they were longing for love the whole time... Is that so not true now-a-days? People front like that, and Lasgo captures that emotion.



The second song will be my favorite until I take my last breath... It is called "True"! It is a definate ballad that uses the angels singing in the background from the movie "The exorcism of Emily Rose"... the song is haunting and puts forth the most yearning I've ever felt in a song. It leaves me feeling emotionally yearned out when I listen to it and it comforts me when I feel lonely... I put it on repeat!

"Can this be true?"

"I belong to you... and you belong to me?"

"The world outside, it feels so cold, that is why I'm here with you..."



Awesome! "Surrender" sounds very much like a song from "Some Things" and I love the remake of "Hold Me Now" by the Thompson twins"... I wasn't interested in purchasing the second album from Lasgo, but I did, and found "True"... Is it a remake??? Or does the song just touch an emotion in me I never knew I had? It seems so familiar to me... Give this one a chance you guys... I never liked ballads until I heard Lasgo's ballads! This album is fresh, hip, and alot deeper than their first!"
