Left Above the Clouds

by John BushAfter lighting European dancefloors on fire during 1995 with three trance classics, Josh Wink's debut album portrays him as a producer of serious album works. These unfortunate excursions into downtempo trance and spoken-word poetry mar some great sounds over the course of the album's 28 total tracks. Hits like "Don't Laugh" and "Higher State of Consciousness" rescue the proceedings somewhat, though they're definitely the highlights of the album.
