Volume 6 of Tiesto's unimpressive series, In Search of Sunrise falls short again and is a disappointing follow up to his brilliant set featured on disc 2 of volume 5.Disc 1 is in keeping with the series' theme of typically being on the softer side with plenty of vocals. The tracks are not aweful, but they are not that great either.Disc 2 starts off well with a couple of great tracks including my favorite of the album, "What You Need" by Nic Chagail. This is followed by a host of mediocre tracks. Near the middle of the set, it reverts to the sound heard on disc 1 with a trio of female vocal tracks, "Falling", "Fall To Pieces", and "Imagination" which is disappointing. The set thankfully returns to a disc 2 feel after this and remains there to the end. However, Tiesto's track selection is far from spectacular. If you are a big fan of Tiesto this disc will likely tickle your musical bone. Personal I think both are just average...but then again I think Tiesto's sets and him as a DJ are just average also.Both disc 1 and disc 2 get 3/5 stars.
