Reviews:
Last summer I was listening to the local radio when I heard this amazing tune. It gave me goosebumps on places I never knew it was humanly possible to have them. It gave me a feeling I only had a couple of times before. When I first heard Rhythm Is Rhythm `Strings of life´ and Sasha´s ´Xpander´ for instance. Since I know the presenter of this radio show I gave him a call and asked about this most awesome tune. He told me that it was a new song and handed the phone to the DJ. I told him that I was stunned by the tune and the feeling it gave me.
After a nice chat he invited me to his house to listen to it again. So I did. It was warm but the sound gave me a cold feeling. I got an ice tea and the song gave me a warm feeling. I knew that this tune was very special. It gives P back to the word progressive. It has all that house music stands for. A deep drive, a beautiful hook and a break to die for, and you know what’s so special about it It keeps you wandering for more. And after listening to it a couple of times that summer day is printed in my memory. Sitting on a white sofa with headphones on my head made me feel like a was on the White Island of Ibiza. This tune evolved even to a better tune and that’s the version that is released now. The unthinkable happened…. It got even better. `I am lost` is probably one of the best tracks in years I’ve heard and believe me, I’ve heard a lot of quality tunes.

Once, every now and then, it happens to you. You got caught to by a track and it doesn’t let you go. Well, it happened to me and I still am a bit upset by it. Upset because I got the chance to listen to it a couple of times and after that I had to wait for it almost a couple of months. Compare it with a birthday gift you knew your parents had hidden in their closed, but you didn’t get the chance to open it because your birthday wasn’t until 2 weeks later. And there it was, but every time you thought of getting a peak you parents got home.
The track is called ´People get lost´ and that song created a big hype when Dutch DJ Armin van Buuren played it on his highly acclaimed radio show `A state of trance´. After the show, many message boards around the globe got many posts about this tune called ´People get lost´. Who is ´Ohmna´ and the question with no answers up till now, how do I get it.
It is a track that has got written ´Amnesia` all over it. A Balearic guitar starts the tune and after a while the song catches you like a warm blanked on a cold winter morning. The vocals come from a female singer with a voice that I would love to hear take a battle with the famous Jan Johnston. After playing it in clubs for several times people still thank me for playing this tune and ask me to tell them what it is. They think it gives the same special feeling I think it has.

CR 082 : OHMNA-People get lost
Ohmna - People Get Lost [Cyber Records] – This is one of those completely addictive and unique vocal tracks with an extremely relentless and dance floor filling bassline! Excellent release from Cyber Records and an amazing production by Ohmna . Have been supporting it in my radio show, and recommend it as one of the tunes to look out for this summer! MATT Darey

Comments: brilliant drum progamming in this track. i also love the way at about the 40 second mark in this sample how everythng kind of tapers off and then before you really know it, it is all thumping again.. lots going on but not abrupt changes if that makes sense. amazing quality track, look forward to dropping this on my boat cruise party!
