    Normal Trance

    Haha, thanks. My edit mainly consisted in removing the vocals, which I found to be too tacky. I often think great tracks are ruined by cheesy vocals, especially in "normal trance". And I felt that was the case in "Man on Mars" too. ;)

    You are right! That the reason iam more interested in trance from '90 to '95 or in that style. ;) I call it Technotrance, because you can hear in the early trance the roots of Techno and Acidhouse of the late '80s and early '90s. The Sound of Frankfurt is my favorite trancesound. Eye-Q and Harthouse and some other labels of that period do it for me: Ralph Hildenbeutel(Earth Nation, etc.), Cygnus X, Resistance D or Oliver Lieb (Spicelab, LSG, The Ambush etc.). Really cool music without (many) borders (and without cheesy vocals ;) ). With hints of techno, acid, ambient, breakbeats.. from low bpms to fast bpms :) (120-160bpm) its has some feeling of avantgarde. But also the emotional side in this time with Cosmic Baby, Humate, Kid Paul etc. The Sound after '95 was more commercial i think, but I have some nice memories with the trancesound of the late '90s, because it was my guide to electronic music. So i like it too.

    This is a new label for trance, which is inspired by the Sound of Frankfurt. :)

    Triquetra - Ecstatic Planet

    Good Album. :-)

    Best tracks for me are: 1,2,3,6 and 8.

    Some Words:

    Gate To Happiness - Nice Intro, nice melody. The middle turns a litte bit to medicore neogoa. At the end it has more character again. The sounddesign and the usage of the arpeggiators reminds me a lot Celestial Intelligence.

    Stormbringer - nice melodies and energy.

    No Unexpected Errors - Best Track of the Album! Cool melodies, good arrangement, really good build up at 04:58 to the end. Thats amazing! :-)

    Homunculus - I dont like this track that much, but the idea to take a distorded kickdrum is cool and not often in Goatrance. 

    Starbith - The melodies are nice and have a feeling of MFG. Good energy! The acidsounds are to loud sometimes and hide the good melodical work.

    Chosen By The Gods - I think this track works perfect as a good start for a dj-set. :-)

     

    I would give 7/10. Good melodical work, good intuition for interessing arrangements. The 303 is sometimes to prominent. Here and there moments of typical mediocore neogoa. But overall a good album with a lot of tracks, they bring me alot of joy. :-)

    The Live Performance of Anthony Rother is really cool. The second track is cool. :-) In the last EB.TV Tech Talk he shows his studio. :-)

     

    Hmm.. in the psybient-set you can hear "Clouds" by Carbon Based Lifeforms @45min and this track is on their last album "Delericts". ;-) And they also do Acid Ambient.

    Ray Castle's Best stuff

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    So Ray Castle is going to play in Berlin on the 15th of September, and since oldschool is quite rare here I will definitely go, but since I'm not familiar with his work, I wanted to ask you people where I should start. :)

    A friend was on the zna festival and said that the set by Ray was great. I think i go to the party. :-)

    And by the way: If you like oldschool come at the 27 of october to the Return of the Sun-Party in Kulturhaus Kili. :-)

    Children brings me to electronic music. :-)

    Dreamland is the album of my childhood.

    Anyone knows the other albums of him? 23am (Breakbeat, Dreamhouse), Organik (Breakbeat, Experimental), Miles&Gurtu (Electronic Jazz) and Thirteen (Rock with electronica)?

    I love Children and his other stuff in style of Dreamhouse, but he produce alot more stuff in other genres... :-)

    Favorite Filteria album?

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    interesting, if i look on the top 10 tracks of Filteria in spotify:

     

    1. Dog Days Bliss

    2. Cloud Kingdom (Solar Fields Remix)

    3. Rotate to Vibrate

    4. Wormhole

    5. The Big Blue

    6. Life Never Sleeps

    7. Filteroid (Day @ 2 AM)

    8. Unfiltered

    9. Lost in the Wild

    10. Food Demons

     

    There is no track from 'Sky Input'. :o But cool, there is 'Rotate to Vibrate'... One of my alltime favorits. Hmm and no 'Lunar Civilitation'... 'The Big Blue' is only on the fifth place. In my circle of acquaintances everyone loves 'The Big Blue' and is the favorite track of Filteria. The album 'Lost in the Wild' dominates the list, then 'Heliopolis' and 'Daze of our Lives'... But where is 'Filteraces'? For me it is the better intro as 'Filteroid'. ;-) The second place is also a suprise with 'Cloud Kingdom'...
