What music are you listening to right now?
astralprojection replied to Sputum Rotgut's topic in General Psytrance
i think what sounds "dated" means it doesnt sound good anymore (subjectively). Compared to some tracks that no matter the age it still sounds fresh. i guess its the writing and sound design more so than anything else. for example to me, Silicon Sound album from 2003 will forever sound incredibly fresh to me and never dated. -

distortion artifacts aside, this is just so good and pure 😛 from 1999. really psychedelic and hypnotic. a true sleeper -
so basically "let them cook" 😛 i just have to realign my expectations a bit. and realise their peak has been over and done with, whatever comes next is not gonna top it. i suppose thats the same with AP also.

Yea I hear that. Hearing something revolutionary from these two would have been nice, but often we hear one revolutionary first album and next one's are more iterative. I defs get a bit more annoyed at psytrance team ups that are completely unnecessary and achieve nothing. Like when 2 artists get together and produce a boring prog track with almost nothing going on. I give Goa a pass, but also because even generic Goa I don't find that boring.

Hallucinogen - The Singles & Albums remastered
astralprojection replied to Trolsk's topic in General Psytrance
im comparing Space Pussy like crazy, and honestly, what exactly is the improvement? Like, what am i suppose to listen for. to me the original sounds good. im just comparing youtube vs youtube so im asking those of you who bought it, like what is the improvements more highs, more stereo? thats pretty much what i can gather from a/b the old youtube vs the new remastered version also on youtube. -
HAMAS attacks party in southern Israel
astralprojection replied to Tetrasect's topic in General Psytrance
why are you pro israel???? jk, i wont discuss politics here ^^ im pro isreal cause they made AP and MFG and IM and YAHEL, and .... 😆 -
good thoughts, yeah i guess my expectations ruined it for me. yep im probably taking it more serious than i should.. but still, remember back in the day when a new album by your favorite artist really pushed the limits and made you go "damn, i didnt think it could be better but they made it better". so many examples of that. i guess times have changed alot since then.

Personally I’m #ProIsrael, AND #FreePalestine. I’m against this terrifying longtime war-time idea of a Greater Israel, and so both Israel and palestine deserves to exist -in peace and normality / harmony … ANTI-NAZIONISM. https://openletter.earth/psytrance-in-solidarity-528f1d8e Update 24 September 2025 Please make sure to confirm your signature! Your signature will only be valid and appear if you click on the link in the email you receive after you sign! There is also an option to edit your Signature in case of an typo or similar. If you are an artists, promoter or such you can add your project name in "organisation" or also with your name. https://openletter.earth/psytrance-in-solidarity-528f1d8e Psytrance in Solidarity We are humans within the psytrance scene demanding an immediate end to the genocide of the Palestinian people. We refuse to contradict the values from which the psytrance scene was born, and support the Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice and equality under the 78‑year‑old occupation by an apartheid state. As members of the global psytrance community, we ask you to join the growing critical mass by signing this letter to pledge your support and solidarity with the people of Palestine. We are at the height of a global reckoning – a watershed moment. We have witnessed massive waves of solidarity for the Palestinian people across nearly every musical genre, with independent creators and renowned industry figures condemning the atrocities unleashed by the Israeli government. Yet the psytrance scene stands alone: with its close ties to Israel, it remains shrouded in silence and complicity. Major psytrance promoters and artists have scarcely spoken out against the staggering loss of Palestinian lives as Gaza continues to be devoured in an apocalyptic blaze reminiscent of multiple Hiroshimas. This deafening silence means the psytrance scene will go down in history as complicit unless it unites in solidarity against this unthinkable atrocity. We understand that this silence is rooted in the belief that standing with Palestine betrays the friends we lost on October 7 at the Nova Festival and those still being held hostage, and that any compassion for Gazans could be mistaken for support for Hamas. While we unequivocally condemn the horrific attacks that shattered our community that day and feel for suffering of the hostages, we cannot remain silent about the catastrophic violations of human rights and international law unfolding in Gaza. Ultimately, the truth about this live-streamed genocide is impossible to ignore. We stand with the global movement opposing Gaza’s destruction and the mass displacement of the Palestinian people, and we denounce every attempt by complicit governments and cultural institutions to normalise the greatest human‑rights violation ever witnessed in our lifetimes. Together, we must fight to end the occupation, stop the genocide and dismantle apartheid. https://openletter.earth/psytrance-in-solidarity-528f1d8e Sign this letter to show your support for the people of Palestine. We are one.

It sounds ...OK. Just OK. I enjoyed the tracks Squelch, Electrosurge and Transmitter mainly for the acid lines and the layering and would give those tracks about 6/10. I get what you mean about it sounding generic. That can be a problem for a lot of new Goa but these guys should probably know better. It could do with a bit more variety from track to track and a few more surprises but maybe that is not what they were going for. I must admit the opening track was my least favorite as I got a bit bored until I skipped to the climax which was better. I am not disappointed because I am still not really a Filteria or Cosmosis fan. If RA released something like this I would be bawling my eyes out! I did not mind listening to the whole thing, there were enough good bits to entertain me. 4.5/10

I used to love that track! (well, the original. not sure I've listened to the remix) Totally forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me! 😃
-
Agree on your review. Thanks for posting this. I'll be listening some more but first impressions were solid. Pretty nice production as well considering how dense it is. Also I saw HOMmega have done a bunch of recent releases. Haven't really viewed them for a while, gonna dig back in.

I didn't hate it. But I'd bet your expectations vs reality knocked them down at least 1 point. Didn't dislike any of the sounds they used, flow was fine. But the low end is what gives it that generic kind of feel. I also sometimes forget artists probably like to f around and have fun. Not taking every release as seriously as the fans. For me this is like religion, for them they probs smoked a doob, turned on a moog and started pressing buttons.
