CD2 together with Patchwork's albums are responsible for igniting my chillout/psybient spark and this thing alone should be enough to give 'Violent Relaxation' a 10/10.
-
For more than 20 years I have psychedelic goa trance relapses now and then. Every time I plunge into the genre this album floats nearby. I can imagine, that next two decades could be the same. Timeless music.

Give it a chance. Maybe even start with the last 3 tracks. I know what you mean but for me this album had a lot of stand out 'big' moments. It is cosmic AF tho.
After Your post I've tried it again and, unfortunately, with the same effect. To my ears the tunes sound like a long, multilayered build-ups. I guess I need more ear-candies .
Nevertheless, strong album, just not my cup of tea.

Great production, but I couldn't get into it. To me it's like E-Mantra's psytrance - everything's swirling & floating through space but I can't single anything out, just different patterns one after another.
-
Really digging this one. I guess I'm a sucker for melodic morning goa .

Very welcome; and when even more patient, the future @ cronomi hold a nice suprise (working on it)
On a note: I read many music collectors understand very well what cronomi is all about: making few releaes, slow in pace, BUT always sounding unique and quality wise outstanding - thanks for your supportAre You trying to say, that there will be more Portamento's music? Don't even dare to tease like that, if it's not the truth!
I haven't found anything similar to the vibe of 'Portal'.

Few years have passed and this one still is on my playlist. Great album!

Digging up this fossil (alphabetical order):
Art of Trance - Wildlife on One
Astral Projection - Dancing Galaxy
Electric Universe - Stardiver
Hallucinogen - Twisted
Infected Mushroom - Classical Mushroom
KoxBox - Dragon Tales
Pleiadians - I.F.O.
Portamento - The Portal
Total Eclipse - Violent Relaxation
Transwave – HeliumSome of them are here having sentimental value to me (like Art Of Trance, Electric Universe or Total Eclipse ) and some because they are IMO untouchable (Hallucinogen, KoxBox, Pleiadians). Portamento's album brought me back to goa/psy sounds and I consider it a new classic.

Anyway, for your pleasure
Copy & paste the link above! It is private, keep it like that please - This is just the first track of 4-5 tracks... The others have a nother type of bassline, but the same psychedelic crazy sounds
Whoa! Proper KoxBoxian mood, guy (girl ? ) really did the homework. Subtle melodies and heavy sfx usage detected, this could be huge.
-
Could someone tell me why there are lot of post 2004 producers whose style is inspired by AP, MFG, Pleiadians or Transwave, making dancefloor bombs or deep-space storytelling tunes but there are only two or three trying to explore crazier/stranger side of goa? Is it harder to achieve? I'm asking because new wave artists talking about their inspirations often mention Hallucinogen or KoxBox next to those I've written earlier.
-
Just bumping this one due to the last Anoebis' comment.
-
there is a moment when there's enough of everything, even of good stuff.
Very true, but having just about one LP a year plus some tracks/ep's made by his label mates can't be considered a saturation imo .
-
Infected Mushroom have stopped years ago, Talpa has moved to some kind of horror-prog, I haven't heard anything new from Principles Of Flight and it's been ten years since Misted Muppet's album.
Terrafractyl is the man I need in psytrance. Cinematic and inventive psychedelic at its best, His tunes hit all the right spots in my ears.
I've read through few Terrafractyl discussions, some people complain about similar basslines and drums. Well, it's sometimes true, His releases aren't very versatile in this area, but I consider it as another producer's stamp, it's all about atmosphere, different melodies and strange, funky feeling.
If you love melody and squelchy synth sounds then this is an album for you. Above all else Terrafractyl continues to define his own unique sound. There are artists you may categorise similarly, but no one sounds quite like him (unless you count a few acts on his label following in his footsteps, like Spacey Koala and Neurorythmic).
+1, thanks for the great review.
Doesn't matter what music will be released next, I'm pretty sure this album will stay in my Top 10 of 2015.

we see we have new goa 96 arigato. matsuri festival
Now that's some archeological topic diggin' if I've ever saw one. First poster should be an expert on goa trance by now.
-
I don't think I've ever seen less 'goa-ish' covers than this bunch. Looks like your every summer radio hits album (although 'erotic goa' sounds intriguing).
Female psytrance made by a dude.
Maybe it's like in UK garage - more vocals and melodies was 'for the ladies', harsh and more bass for the guys, so maybe it's not about the gender of the producer, but the gender of the music .

Just this topic shows there will never be one best new school album (I think I'm safe to write it without 'IMO' )), not only that, but even defining one or another as 'masterpiece' raises questions. Personally I'm in team-Portamento .
IMO Filteria is way too much debated here
Who should attract more attention than he gains on this forum? Question driven only by curiosity.

The point is, Ovnimoon always seems to have some great things to say and he's talking about the same things he's talked about before and he's saying them in similar ways. But he's like an old friend that says exactly what I want to hear and when he opens his mouth he says them in the most remarkable ways.
A bit OT, but sometimes I want my favourite artists not to change their styles too often, at the end of the day that's why (among other things) we like them, right ?

I'll cut a part out of a track and post it here asap, you'll be surprised... I swear
Sometimes You don't know You want something badly until someone else mentions about it. Now I want the sample for yesterday .

Hello people.
It is only february, but we already had very exciting things happening in the Goa microcosm.
It has never been my cup of tea, but in the golden days, there existed (and you know it) a special kind of Goa, that was either labelled as freeform or experimental. Usually, it consisted in drunken melodies with a thick bassline. But overall, it was crazy psychedelic stuff born to repell the boundaries of psychedelic madness.
Example ?

This species died out. Until now ?
I'll just put this one here (form different topic):
We also have a new release ready by someone who sounds so koxbox Dragon Tales but with some more melodies, that my friends couldn't believe it was NOT koxbox! More info on that soon

I've been waiting for more than decade to read sentence like this.
-
I suggest different approach, maybe Traci Lords - Control (Juno Reactor remix)? I think we could look outside the goa/psy scene and being on first Mortal Kombat movie soundtrack have helped this one and reached few people for sure.
-
no risk of running a Caesar by piercing the listener to death with synth stabs.
What does that mean?
Great album btw, for me it skips from Transwave through AP to Etnica, but with their own twist. No walls of sound, which is nice. This one should stay with me for a while .
-
Oh wow. Bad timing there.
But didn't PTN get the last slot then? He quoted it.
I might be the third dog running away with a bone .
To make things clear I'll just repeat - please, consider Poramento's LP and thank our trio later.
-
Portamento - The Portal (2011)Fantastic darker acidic goa. Modern day classic.Oh, don't scratch that - I think You've got it right the first time .
It's an album I keep going back to. Pure energy blast, no dumb solutions.
Pleiadians - IFO
in 1997

I respect Your point of view although I differentiate opinions about albums and opinions about milestones ;), I'm also not a worshipper of some ultra-top classics.
