Review by Mark Sheehan

Xtratrax is an album by the renowned musician Mike Oldfield, known for his distinctive blend of progressive rock and classical music. Released in 1996, this album features a collection of previously unreleased tracks and remixes of some of Oldfield's classic songs.

The album opens with "Sentinel (Orbular Bells Mix)," a remix of Oldfield's iconic song from his 1973 album Tubular Bells. The track features a modern electronic beat and a haunting melody, giving it a fresh and contemporary feel. The album also includes remixes of other Oldfield classics such as "Tubular Bells Part 2 (Excerpt)" and "Moonlight Shadow (Unplugged Mix)."

The album also features some new tracks, such as "Jungle Gardenia," which showcases Oldfield's signature guitar sound and intricate fingerpicking style. "Resolution" is another standout track, featuring a dynamic orchestral arrangement and powerful vocals.
