Lame?
I don't really have any good examples.
EDIT - I don't have any examples as I just noticed it's titled MIX HAHA....
Analog Pussy sampled the entire sweeps from the big break of Mino - 2000 Compatible and used it quite alot on two tracks from Psycho Bitch From Hell.

Total Eclipse - Chaotic Circus
-
I've heard this track before. I can't pinpoint exactly but this sounds very alike to old music produced by Goa Gil, that could be a Ceiba, Nommos or Kode IV. those releases are scattered all over though, and that's his style imho.
-
Thanks for your kind remarks people.
I hope to put up more stuff very soon!
-
Definitely not. Robotised! great track, I know it by heart.
You probably mean the melody at the end of the tune, it's not too similar though but still, thanks.
-
I'm positive it was taken off a cd.
You're right, the discogs forum may be an appropriate place to ask as most serious collectors hang around there. I didn't think about that, thanks for the advice mate.
That's just a personal experience. I've been asking for several track IDs on different forums during the last 2 years. In about 60% of all cases people who didn't know the track answered like "Sounds like Prana somehow..." but then it turned out that the track was released by 21-3 Records, Psychic Deli or other british labels, but doesn't have anything to do with Prana.
Of course your track may be released by Matsuri. Are you sure it was sourced from CD? Or could it be from vinyl as well? You probably know that there are several "vinyl only" tracks from back then.
Btw: did you ask for help on Discogs Goa/Psytrance Forum as well?

no pal, but that's too late to change this nick for me, been using since '95 on irc even before I knew his music. that thing had caused misunderstandings lots of times!
Not that there's only 1 Tristan in the world, but are you Tristan Cooke just in case ?

Mate, I'm anything but newbie to trance. Been listening to the music since '94. I had that track early on '96 on cassette, that's why I think it is a 95.
now, the track was very psychedelic, Matsuri style. the melody was similar to what I played, but with a distorted high lead sound, I can't really describe it. but the sound I played with doesn't sound at all similar to the original. To me it sounded similar to Prana, Deflo, Slug stuff. I remember that track very good as it was one of my favorites and it definitely didn't sound israeli.
second thing, I didn't miss any AP or MFG release. there's no way on earth this is one of their tracks. what do you mean by "Lol, that's a standard answer when looking for help to identify ANY track. "Sounds like Prana..."?
Is "it sounds definitely like AP" a valid answer, when looking for help to identify any track?
I'm not here to bash or anything and I'm thankful to you for taking your time to listen but my memory serves me very well and there are hardly any psytrance/goa releases prior to 2000 which are unfamiliar to me UNLESS it is unreleased and there are people here who know me and can stand behind my claim.
although it's hard to believe that it was unreleased because some guy recorded me stuff from cds, one of them was a new cd back then, called "Trancentral Four". which was released early on '96.
also, I remember other things on that cassette - but nothing sounded anything like the israeli trance of the day, it was very psychedelic.

Hey,
This is the first track I've made since 2001, and I'm working on some great new stuff and hopefully I'll have the time to finish newer tracks soon.
feedbacks are appreciated.

Thanks for listening

Thanks mate, anyways, it's definitely not israeli. the style is more like Prana - I didn't play the true lead sound. the melody sounds a bit distorted yet clear - think Total Eclipse - Absolute Zero on 5:10, similar lead sound only with distortion on it. it definitely sounded Matsuri-esque, I still remember it that way.
goa-head
trisan played the track with his keyboard reproducing what he remebers.. this was not a sample of the track .. he hasn't got it. so u have to hear the style of the melody not the actual track..
and to me that kind of melody is totally from astral or mfg.. but well i can be wrong
there were sooo many israeli tracks.. -
Well, I'll try going with you on that one. I think I found all three versions, but I can't hear a violin - it sounds to me more like the usual annoying Holymen trumpet
BUT, it might be in different parts of the track. if it's one of them though, I'm sure those two minute samples (one is 4) are long enough to figure it out.

If you actually hear the violin in those samples tell me because I couldn't.
What do you mean with possessed?
Really fast and energetic playing I suppose?
Anyway don't forget there are 3 versions of the Last Universe tune...might be you're overlooking one of them.
-
When I think of violin in trance only two tracks come to mind.
The first is "Return of the Travellers" by The Muses Rapt - http://play.saikosounds.com/m3u/008/4b.m3u
The other is "Essence" by Shiva Chandra - http://play.saikosounds.com/m3u/027/aa.m3u which actually samples a well known symphony movement.
What style is your track?
Would you describe it as psychedelic, as older goa or is it more in the "uplifting" or "nitzhonot" genre?
No, it's not last universe. In the track that i heard the man playing the violin sounds like he is possessed or something like that.
-
Sonic System, what a track.
I really like this compilation. definitely on my better 100 list.
damn that gap!
-
Last Of The Mohicans...isn't he referring to 'Holymen - Last Universe' (probably the End All remix)?
You should've known that, Tristan
Don't think I ever heard of it.

Hi, i heard a last of the mohicans track with electric violin in it and I'm looking for it
. Can anyone help me find it's title please?????That sounds like an israeli "nickname" for a track, probably that's not the track name (I only guess), just like at the old days, when all the arsim of israel called that Barkan track "Crazy Dafna", "Crazy Cow", The Muses Rapt - Spiritual Healing was called "The cancer track" and the funniest is probably California Sunshine's Avalanche being referred to as "Dolphins"!! LOL
I think the only real goatrance track I ever heard with real a real violin sample is The Muses Rapt - Return of the Travellers. try it.
-
and then builds up to a sample quote from someone I don't know. The vocal sample talks something about a shaman that lives in the forsest and the only way to get to him is by going into a trance-like state. The vocal samples continue on throughout the song here and there. .
Those vocals are samples from a lecture of Christian Rätsch, a world leading german anthropologist and an expert on psychoactivity.
Here's a link to a video of the original lecture, it's very interesting:

What you want to hear is probably around 18:00 or 20:00, somewhere around that (the Yeti part).
-
I was given that track on a cassette back then, I heard it for a few weeks, loved it and lost it.
ever since I'm trying to find out what it is, I've played myself what remains in my memory from the main melody from the track.
I don't think I'll get an answer but I sincerely hope so.
V/A - Opus Iridium (2xCD) Uptempo/Downtempo

qa2pir, I'll have to somewhat agree with you here. this is my main gripe with everything being produced in the last 5 years no matter the style, actually people today are so used to hear the over compressed sound that they can't even listen to older stuff because it would sound so alien to them. music indeed, and any style of it should have dynamics and in that matter there are some flames at you for no reason. so true, that a quiet part should be quiet and a loud part should be loud. all the compression kills the dynamics of the sound, period. but in a matter of fact I didn't quite notice that with Suntrip. sure, it has to conform with today's standards which are a bit ridiculous if you ask me, we're actually in a period (leaving Suntrip aside for a minute) where music is judged almost purely production-wise. it's the same as people watch guitarist's fingers with envy instead of actually listen to what he plays, it would be much better listening to it eyes closed.
since when music is of less importance? now back to Suntrip. as I mentioned, I didn't really notice über compression or stiff brick wall limiting. but ofcourse when you listen to it you can tell without a hitch it's '08 and not a '98, for the good and the bad. but I think it actually fits the style of the music, which is goa and melodic but not really oldschool per-se, as it is evolved into more of a "newschool goatrance". I do believe there's still place for the oldschool sound, though. and Opus Iridium is a great release, imho.
