Trivia
* Did you know Symsonic is Rank 1's first and only Studio album? Even though some of their interviews in the mid '00s suggested they were working on a follow-up (during A State Of Trance episode #147 XXL for instance), in the end it never materialized (sadly).

* Though originally known for their euphoric party anthems, Symsonic allowed Piet and Benno to demonstrate their diversity by introducing more Progressive, Techno and Breaks / Chill-out based tracks.

* The original Symsonic was released in 2002 as a 2 disc pack in which the first disc was a CD containing the core album whilst the second disc was a DVD that containted the videoclips for "Airwave", "Superstring (Rank 1 Remix)", "Such Is Life" and "Airwave" as well as their Trance Energy 2002 live performance.

* An iVibes forum post from 2002 claimed that due to Piet and Benno's full schdedule to finish Symsonic (including their preparations to tour around to promote it), their Rank 1 Remix for Gouryella "Ligaya" wasn't finished on time. As a result, it was never officially released though Piet did play it at Go!Park in 2002 whilst they played it again on Rank 1's Radio Rush #007 some 8 years later.
