Beyond music is a very fitting name for this song. It is one of the most advanced mods I have ever heard. The melody gives a hope and power feeling. The mood changes at some places, exactly when it should. It was hard to classify this song into a genre, since it sounds much like synthpop, but also has touches of techno, brass power and many other styles. It is not at all repetative, and it is like listening to a story, told by the music. That sounds weird, but this is one of those songs that you can listen to, and just do nothing else than to sit listening to it. Maybe I should write a warning to you who don't like music from the 80's, this is the most 80's-sounding mod I have caught yet. =) Those who love synthpop, and those who love orchestral music will love this. The tune itself can't be more technically perfect than this. The samples are superb, and the way it has the right instruments at the right time is totally amazing. There are some engine sounds and other "disturbing" sounds here and there, and they are placed maybe a little too close to each other. But without them, it wouldn't be as good as it is, so I guess it's wrong to say so anyway. The beat is nice, though almost never heard. It is that beat that is just there to keep a nice tempo, and a louder or more clear beat line would only be to the cost of the melody, and the melody is the thing that makes this song so good.

I remember this being one of my top faves when I started downloading mods off of BBS's in the late 80's early 90's. This is one of those songs that sounds really good the first time and gets better and better the more you play it. Like the reviewer before me, I'd definitely put this in a category of it's own. This song has a storyline, not just a bunch of verses with a repeating chorus like so much of today's music.
This song has feeling, soul, and depth. Definitely worth the download and addition to your library!
