Four discs full of splendid music. I can't complain about anything in it. Love, love, love it!
Me too -- Love, love, love it !!
Never understood why some people prefer DS9. For my taste, VOYAGER is much more exciting -- both musically (especially the Chattaway scores) and dramatically as series/characters.

See, I love the relentless nature of the Dark Frontier score.
Different strokes…

Well, what can I say?
When Lala Land started their series-sets with TNG Vol.1 the one I really was most looking forward to was the one for Voyager, and I'd say now that it's here it was well worth the wait.
Personally I'm more of a fan of Chattaway's work rather than McCarthy's and the music in Voyager is pretty much the reason why I became a fan of him in the first place. From all the different shows I overall like the approach he uses in Voyager the most. Voyager was pretty much the "fun space-adventure"-show and the music reflects that very well. Everything on Disc 1 is a blast, but it doesn't stop there.
Disc 2 is filled with plenty of personal favourites too - the only selection that lacks the little extra something special for me would be the "Workforce"-selection at the end.
As for Disc 3, I also love the "Deluxe Edition"-treatment for "Dark Frontier", which is also my favorite score from David Bell - like Chattaway I think he did his best work for Voyager. "Unity", "Flesh and Blood" & "Bride of Chaotica" are other favourites, but there's a lot more. I can see why many people call his music repetitive though, since it appears rather samey but personally I really don't mind. It's not that we got many of David Bell's scores on disc yet, and so far this selection seems to be the biggest we got so far on these sets.
I don't care much for "Lifesigns", though. His accordeon source is nice, but I'm not sure why we needed four pieces of that - the non-source music isn't exactly special either, but overall I don't mind. When it comes to Paiilargeon I love his score for "The Siege of AR-558" as well as his contributions for Enterprise - I was very happy that especially Vol.2 of the Enterprise sets focused heavily on his music there. But on the other hand I never cared much for his music on Voyager and DS9.
Disc 4 is a highlight for me as well, mostly thanks to finally getting "Scorpion" - or well, at least 31 minutes of it. Having 43 minutes for "Year of Hell" in comparison seems a bit unfairly balanced, don't you think? 
But hey what's not to love? Great stuff all around.
As a whole I have one small nitpick, though: How could you guys look into the music for "Rise" and NOT select the cue for the final battle between the Voyager and the alien ship??? That totally baffles me.
Other than that, A+! As I said, well worth the wait!

Deep Space Nine Vol. 2 is quite imminent, and LLL has said they are planning on Voyager Vol. 2 and at least one more group collection of fan requests after that.
