  1. Past hour
  2. It's not him, last I heard he was living in a brothel on a steep mountain in Bulgaria somewhere
  3. Today
  4. Carbon Based Lifeforms never fail to impress and this album is one of my favourites from CBL, it came to me at a time where I was not expecting anything from them and suddenly I had an amazing album that was blowing me away. It's a very atmospheric journey through lush dreamscapes, nice pads, beats, rhythms and soundscapes. I have no idea how there has been zero comments to this review except that maybe everyone here sucks πŸ˜‚

    S.F.X. – Rainbirds

    I really liked this album. It's one of those releases where I don't understand people's comments of "it sounds dated" in a negative way. Yeah, it sounds dated, to an era of absolutely amazing music. What the hell are people complaining about with this "it sounds dated" complaint? Does Chopin sound dated? Of course his compositions sound like that era, is it an issue? No one cares. So why do people fixate on old electronica sounding like the era it was made in? For me that's a plus, not a negative.
  6. Angle Tears - Indian Ballad Seb Taylor is the best artist to follow on bandcamp. He releases fantastic stuff at a great price. Recently he's released a load of compilations. 50 odd tracks for next to nothing.
  7. This was released on my 35th birthday and while I have vague memories of this, and I know I own it because of this review....I still cannot find it anywhere in my collection. I feel this is a metaphor for my life at 35, I have strong but vague memories of things but I'll be damned if I can actually remember what happened (for context my daughter would have been just born 2 months after this release, at the same time I was getting demoted at work and taking a huge payout, just in time for my new family member)
  8. One of the last great Ultimate albums A really nice journey that unfolds so nicely with a quiet undistracted listen
  9. This release, for me, is symbolic of the direction Ultimate took, or the direction I took. It sounds good, I like it, but it doesn't grab me. All recently Ultimate releases are like this, either their style just got stale, or I lost the ability to really focus on enjoy it. I still listen to a lot of drone ambient that can grab me, so I feel it's the former, but I hope it's the latter so later, when life calms its tits a bit, I can sit and maybe fully appreciate this and other later Ultimate releases.
  10. Summer finally hit here. After a July of wonderful warm weather in the mid 30s, and having to endure people complain that it's "too hot" and ask them "what are you going to be like when it gets truly hot?" It's ramped up a fair bit now, pushing 40 in many places. I love summer, I can acclimatise, but gotta stay safe and stay hydrated.
  11. Over the years I find a few compilations stand out from the rest Flying Rhino Records Black Rhino Singularity First Flight Third Flight Dragonfly A Voyage in to trance Order Odonata 3 Twisted Unusual Suspects Dementertainment Forgot the label Destination Goa - The First Chapter
  12. You can get this for free on Bandcamp, or pay what you'd like https://anahatamusic.bandcamp.com/album/the-immaculate-perception I remember this being very good, worth a listen and worth buying.
  13. I go this recently too. It's a really good buy. Honestly Seb Taylor is one of the best artists to follow on Bandcamp. He really knows how to sell his stuff. It's all reasonably priced and often comes with mixes and DJ sets included. He has released a lot of these collections and I have gotten them all.
  14. Always loved Dog Days Bliss
  15. @Radish6404so what is the reason you didn't use your old account? Did you forget your password? Isn't their a password recovery system? I'm also curious what you chose your new account name to be Radish, why use a name other users used to mock you with?
  16. Isn't awesome discovering and old classics you never knew existed before?
  17. Bringing Joy to my life Amazing some of the things we remember, and things we just totally forget. I'm listening to Eat Static - Dead Planet now, I wrote a glowing review about it, and forgot all about it. Enjoying rediscovering it. A nice mix of Old Eat Static and full on!
  18. There is a surprising number of classic Goa albums I bet lots of us haven't heard before, just waiting to be (re)discovered. I love all the Trust in Trance albums, but this one is probably the culmination of the series. Recently listened to all 3 in a row. 10/10 would listen again.
  19. Yeah the thing about chores is no matter how many hours and days you spend on them, there will always be a load more waiting for you. The music is about the only saving grace that can get you through them.
  20. After a long streak of summer events and heat, I'm doing many chores at home - also ripping a bunch of albums I got as CD only and checking assorted vinyls which I haven't added to my bookkeeping yet.
  21. Yesterday
  22. Yeah for some reason I remember it well you were super excited to get it, especially the extra tracks
  23. Some of the comments on the start of this thread are hilarious, people finding out about this for the first time and their jaw dropping. To be fair though, I only found out about it today by looking on discogs.com after seeing tracks by S.F.X. on Trust In Trance, and it wouldn't even be on discogs if it wasn't for the kind folks on this thread!
  24. How on Earth or in space did I miss this one for so long? I am listening for the first time right now and it is E X C E L L E N T. It is the best Goa I have heard in a long time. I wasn't having such a great evening and this has cut through and helped me a lot. I am not going to dissect it too much. Just excellent, excellent arrangements and melodies, absolutely classic old school Goa trance, but it is the way it is mixed and mastered that just really brings it to life! Maybe 9/10, maybe 9.5/10.
  25. Listening to Astral Projection Trust in Trance 3 for the first time ever and it is sooooo good! Gonna give S.F.X. – Rainbirds a listen as well soon. Proto– Astral Projection album that I have not heard either.
  26. Listening to Trust In Trance Vol. 3 now and loving it! Thanks for the recommendation! This could become one of my new favorites. I am getting a few early Posford vibes from some bits too. 9/10 at least...
  27. I bought Another World not long after it came out and played it loads. It remains my favorite of theirs but for many years it was the only album of theirs I had heard. I first listened to Dancing Galaxy a few years ago and I couldn't seem to get into it. I am listening again now and finding it pretty good, although not stunning. However, if I heard it back when it came out I would have most likely loved it. My impression half an hour into Dancing Galaxy is that it has some nice wibbley acid but the overall feel comes across a tiny bit more clubby for some reason, like I am listening to club anthems, than Another World to me whereas the leads in Another World really felt like a trip into space. I am interested to find out what I will make of Trust In Trance Vol. 3.
