The Best CD I Ever Heard
Anyone who likes any type of music should own Grace: If I Could Fly. This celestial dance/techno music combines beautifully cosmic tracks with the heavenly angelic voice of the breathtaking Dominique Atkins. If you don't like dance/techno, buy the CD and hang the cover picture of Dominique on your wall. It's a win-win situation. Enjoy!

Beautiful soaring techno in every way Grace's voice is so beautiful, so sensual. It seems perfectly matched with the trancey sound-scape created by Paul Oakenford (he is the man behind all perfecto mixes). Very few techno / trance / electronic records can actually present fine songs, fine music that means something, as this CD does. The CD is pure euphoic bitter joy and sadness. If you like the euro-trash and progressive groove vibe, then you should like this. At times it has a pop edge, but it always manages style and sophistication. It also, by the way, contains a version of a song called "Hand And Hand", which was a mild dance hit by Opus III in 94 or 95.

Another fine dance disc produced by Oakenfold and Osborne. Produced by the well-respected Paul Oakenfold and Steve Osborne, this disc gathers in several of Grace's hit singles along with several other previously unreleased tracks. A number of musical styles can be found on "If I Could Fly," among them ambient and drum and bass. Grace's siren-song gives everything a cohesive feel despite the variety of styles. A majority of the album carries a high-energy pace that you can't help but dance to, but there are a few slower ballads among them. Among my favorites on the album are "It's Not Over Yet"; "If I Could Fly"; "Orange", a remix of U2's "Lemon"; and "Hand in Hand". This disc is a must have for any fan of dance music.
