Vancouver techno-pop enterprise Delerium may be most widely known for getting Sarah McLachlan played in dance clubs; the famed songstress lent her vocals to their 1997 hit "Silence." DJ Tiesto's familiar dance-floor overhaul of the tune sets the pace for the double-disc compilation Odyssey, on which a procession of remix artists chop tracks from Delerium albums Semantic Spaces (1994), Karma (1997), and Poem (2000) into lengthy workouts. The selections favor straight-up disco and house over the sort of ambient experimentation that might have been culled from the original material. But the dub-styled "Flowers Become Screens (Return Mix)" and--on the spacier second disc--a goth-tinged take on "Silence (Fade's Sanctuary Mix)" offer a breather from the collection's rather athletic nature. Besides a clutch of previously released tracks, Odyssey also includes rare mixes of "Underwater," "Euphoria (Rabbit in the Moon's Divine Gothic Disco Mix)," and "Heaven's Earth (Matt Darey Remix)." And Delerium's trademark ethereal guest vocal tracks remain largely intact, so you can float and dance at the same time. --Kieran Grant

Customer Reviews

Odyssey -The Remix Collection
As a "Remix" it's a little unfair to compare this record to the other recordings released by Delerium. I consider myself to be a solid Delirium fan since I own all their recordings. While this recording is true to their "sound" you should understand that this remix was intended primarily for dance clubs. As a result these recordings are previously released singles but with a very distinct overdubbed techno beat throughout the entire recording. As someone on the dance floor might say; "It has a good beat and is easy to dance to". While many reviews here mention the beat is repetitive it only fair to say that's the general idea of a trance like dance club recording. While some cuts are better than others I personally enjoy this Odyssey-The Remix Collection Delirium deviation. But... if an incessant boom, boom, boom, boom will make you crazy... then you probably don't want to add this to your collection.

Didn't care for it too much
Seems like they were just trying to make an extra buck by releasing versions that weren't included on the other CD.

Superb.
Prior to this album I had never heard of Delerium. This album totally won me over though and now I love Delerium. This is Trance at its BEST. Even though there are multiple remixes of some of the same songs they sound completely different. I personally prefer a lot of the remixes on this album over some of the originals. The music is very fluid, constantly evolving and ever changing, it doesn't stay the same for long. If you like trance and electronica at all...this is the album for you.

I love this album. It's one of my favorite albums EVER.
