Editorial Review:
Album Description: Way Out West are the duo of DJ's Nick Warren (Global Underground) and Jody Wisternoff. This U.S. version on Nettwerk Records features a bonus track of the now deleted Bedrock Vocal mix of 'The Fall'.
Amazon.com: British DJ-producer Nick Warren has long been making mixes and music for highway consumption. Most of his Global Underground compilations, such as Amsterdam, lend themselves to long road trips and smooth shifts in velocity. So it's no surprise that this, another project with Bristol dance music wunderkind Jody Wisternoff, is also made for movement. Consisting of progressive trance with some soulful textures and melodies woven into its fabric, Intensify is more emotionally balanced than a straightforward mix, yet it retains enough beat-driven drama to work comfortably as a continuous affair.
"The Fall," already a club anthem, kicks things off, then the record moves through the interstate trance of "Activity," the ethereal "Hypnotise," and the pedal-to-the-metal "Intensify Part 01." The duo also get a touch experimental on songs like "Stealth," featuring Kirsty Hawkshaw, and the exciting, expansive tribal trance of "UB Devoid." Like almost everything involving Nick Warren, Intensify is a fine release brimming with creativity, passion, and a curious but successful juxtaposition of the familiar and unknown. --Steffan Chirazi

If this is the music of tomorrow, then I guess I'd be better off listening to a dripping faucet.
Most songs consist of beating one idea into the ground, or in the case of several of the 'versions' of them, one idea into the ground for 'Part I', into the subsoil for 'Part 2', and into the bedrock for the 'vocal mix'.
Way Out West will never be confused with Brian Eno or Philip Glass, and this CD will never be confused with 'Music for Airports' or 'Einstein on the Beach'.

Though not their first release, this was the first WOW album i obtained, and it's a great point of introduction for anyone interested in learning more of what drives electronic dance music. The production is top-notch, the beats are varied and persistent, and the shifting atmospheres make for a very enjoyable listen, whether it be in your car (i highly recommend this for latenight drives!) or on the dancefloor.
"The Fall", "Activity" and "Call Me" lead off the disc with lots of energy, ... Read More

When I first got Way Out West's "Don't Look Now" I was disturbed by the overall feminine touch, though it grew on me quickly and I discovered the album's inner greatness. On this release, I was more instantly gratified. Though the feminine touch is still present on a couple of tracks, the overall album is more upbeat and hard-hitting in comaprison. The sounds are fine-tuned and hi-tech, with lots of fluid and well-layered production. Every now and then a piano or exotic flute shines through for an ... Read More

I am not impressed with this album. I had heard an excerpt of 'Mindcircus' on iTunes, and had imagined that the song in its entirety would be massive. On the contrary, cheesy female vocals interlock a repetitive (if otherwise decent and catchy) piano hook. The use of middle-Eastern inspired tunes on 'Secret' is also very uninspired, and midway through the song the beat changes in a way that makes me really just want to stop dancing and put on something cheesier, as long as it had a tighter beat.

In this album, Way out West bring their great progressive trance sound to us in a way that is slightly mixed, yet slightly not. The opening track is inspiring and memorable and the rest of the album just builds from its beginning. Truly a must for any trance-addict's collection. Buy it...you won't be disappointed.
