"The Ahoy 2007 DVD was by far one of the best trance home-productions ever made by any DJ or Electronic Recordhouse (even surpassing Tiësto's earlier works...which, in my opinion, have been superb). However, this 2-Disc set is absolutely perfect. It's just as good as what one expects from Armin's work, and may I dare say it's even better. The lights, the sound, the invited artists and Live performances, the production development...AMAZING.
The tracklist is available anywhere around the internet; a simple google search could get you the 31 tracks with title and artist name. Speaking of which, the selection is "The Works". You get a bit of the classic Armin [Shivers (although it's a new amazing remix by Alex M.O.R.P.H.), Rush Hour, Burned with Desire, Zocalo, and Sail...among some others] amazingly mixed and incorporated into Armin's new beats (Hold on to Me, Going Wrong, Imagine, etc...). Van Buuren also features some great new and complementary talent that goes perfectly along with the rest of his work. You'll be rocked by every face you've come to appreciate from Armin: Vocal-Trance, House-Trance, House, Progressive-House, Progressive-Trance...yeah, it's a perfect swirl of Trance and House.
The first disc is obviously the main presentation. Disc #2 is more of a Bonus CD. You get access to a very well prepared Behind the Scenes of Armin 2008, Music Videos, Deleted Scenes and Videos, and photos.
Armin fans, DJs, trance-heads, electronica genre admirers, or anyone who's just started building up their taste for delightful yet euphoric Electronic music, this is a MUST HAVE production. You'll have your headphones on for a while, as well as your stereo. Great play-on for a night or house party.
Long Live Armin."

"Armin is definitely my favorite DJ. Every performance on this DVD rocks. The only reason why I gave it 4 stars is because its missing the performance by Sharon del Adel singing In And Out Of Love. How do you not include that!!!!! Also they put the performances by Jaren Cerf and Elles de Graaf into the deleted scenes section. Why???? If anyone knows why they did these things plz let me know cause I think that is really weird."

"This is the next best thing than seeing him live.... the music selection is great the performances were really good I especially enjoyed communication part 3 and also chris jones "going wrong" if you enjoy trance and dance this is a must it completely takes you out of your element !!! however as some of the other reviews mentioned that sharon del adel in and out of love was not on the dvd and I think its because during the performance when she was being presented the mc called her susan not once but twice and she was in the pictures on the 2nd dvd but did not perform on the main event dvd its sad because thats his most popular song but overall the entire show is amazing and makes you wish you could go join the crowd !!!!!! GO ARMIN YOU ARE THE BEST AT WHAT YOU DO!!!!!!"

"Watching this dvd as rental, have all the tracks in mp3 format to listen in the car. But i'm buying the DVD because its just one of the best Armin mixes. And his opening at ASOT 450 was unreal. Amazing!"

"Armin Van Buurin -- the Rachmaninoff of our age -- presents his live show here on DVD, and reveals himself to be an honest-to-goodness real-life Richard Halley, straight out of Atlas Shrugged. For the unaware, Van Buuren is both Producer AND Engineer -- he literally places all the mics in-studio himself; literally NOTHING comes between him and his music, not even an electronic technician.
Here on the Imagine DVD, Van Buuren raises the bar so far above the herd that language itself fails me: Van Buuren starts each set knowing nothing but what his first introductory record will be -- after that, it's all about structuring his set by vibe-connecting with his audience. Part DJ, part social engineer, part Producer, part master of impeccable musical timing -- and all genius -- Van Buuren "mixes" multiple pieces of pre-recorded music into a unique tapestry that is never repeated show-to-show; it's an incredibly complex structure of peaks & valleys that Armin weaves together each night in perfect vibe with his audience's ever-shifting emotional state -- he's continuously running multiple computers and at least a half-dozen CD players -- and interspersing multiple live guest vocalists as well -- Van Buuren only makes it LOOK easy. He is in a class utterly by himself.
After seeing this, one is struck with the realization that Mozart couldn't POSSIBLY have mattered.
