Today I present two tracks that use very similar melodies. The first track was written by songwriter Nello Tijardovic, who has dozens of tracks behind him, mostly dance music. The second track is by the project Notch. It’s barely known even among goa fans. This was a project by the guys from Carbon Based Lifeforms. As you can hear, they definitely didn’t start out in the genre they later became famous for. If anyone doesn’t catch the similarity between these two tracks, here are the timestamps: first track — 05:59, second — 04:09. Even the track title “Phenomenology” seems like a nod to Miranda. Remember the name of her first album? Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m referring to. Miranda — Mars Needs Women (1998) | Written by Nello Tijardovic Notch — Phenomenology (1999)

The melody from the beginning of the track Nihilist — Sunbeam From Fornax 4 (1994) was borrowed by the duo TransWave for their track TransWave — Adoration To The Aum (1995). Whether TransWave did this intentionally or accidentally is unknown to me.
