A Swiss-born, Italian-raised pianist, Robert Miles serves up numbingly repetitive but lively sub-Moroder disco for 66 unrelenting minutes. While it may make Vangelis sound like Mozart by comparison on the home stereo, this is evidently sheer magic under the mirrorballs of Ibiza, Paris, and Scarborough. --Jeff Bateman

Treat Your Ears to a wonderful dreamland
I have to agree with the fact that this cd has stood the test of time. I remember when the song "children" by Robert Miles first came out and I was still a teenager then. Fast forward some years later and I decide to take a leap of faith and buy this cd and what honestly helped my decision was overwhelmingly positive reviews. Listening to this cd gives good reason for the numerous positive reviews. Listening to many songs on this cd makes you feel in a positive way that you are in some type of beautiful and mystical dreamland. This cd is a gem because of all the songs on the cd being beautiful, high energy, and upbeat. Some of the most noteworthy songs on this cd are of course the classical "children", "one and one", and both versions of the "fable". This is especially a good cd to listen to during the summer but all year round would still be fine. If you would like to treat yourself to some beautiful music that is a departure from some of the more mainstream music and songs this is one of the cds to go to. Its so unique that I would classify it somewhere between europop and eurodance but in its own category. This is also some good music to listen to if you want to nurture yourself.
Good house music does not equal good music
2 1/2
Competent though disappointing, this highly referenced trance album cannot escape it's plodding, dated backbone of a beat, no matter how refined and professional the production tries to be. Of course, listening to the album 13 years later, one immediately feels the bland, aged thump soaked into the generic sequencing and tonality, which is not to say the album was not worthy of the praise it garnered upon release-in House-centric circles that is. The thudding, ever present, 4/4 layering of a pulse that guides entirely too much mainstream electronic music out there will vastly undermine any of the dreamy atmosphere heavily present on this ambitious little club-hopper, rendering most of the Yanni-with-edge keyboard melodies banal. Thankfully once in a while, particularly at the start and finish of the disc, a semi-potent spell is afforded these static conditions, allowing Dreamland to shine in refreshingly unrestricted ways.
A Rare techno record that lasts forever
This brings back so many memories. Before i left Ireland in 1997 the techno wave was in full stregth and Roberto Milano record was all over the airwaves. Listen to it on a beach and dream. In you car and dream. In your bed and dream. Its a dreamland.It has amazing lasting quality and the vocal track with maria nayler is dynamite. Ill never outgrow this record. Its just too good. great for vacation in a hot climate.
