SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 7:59 Min.
For his 1996 dance-electronica album, Dreamland, composer-musician Robert Cocina (aka Robert Miles) performs this instrumental (Track # 9). The song’s finish is an inaudible vocal clip, which sounds vaguely reminiscent of a James Bond villain making a threat.
REVIEW:
Let’s ignore the unnecessary gibberish at the end – it makes no sense for being there. Despite its over-indulgent running time, “In the Dawn” possesses an irresistible sound. The pulsating melody is so good that one can forgive that it’s close to eight minutes of repetition. Equaling Track # 1: “Children” (Dream Version) as the album’s best dual threat, “In the Dawn” is ideal for dance playlists and adrenaline-pumping workouts.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 8 Stars
