  1. What happened to the free compilation ? Or did I just imagine it.
  2. Sounds great! I just wish Re-horakhty would make one too.
  3. Please read and respect these rules/guidelines before posting new reviews. 1. Please use the appropriate release year before posting . If you're posting in a "multiple year" thread (ie. 1990-1994) then specify the release year in the thread title. 2. If youre an artist / label that wants to promote a new release please use the Promos group and not this one! ANY promos found in the reviews section will be moved and the one responsible for it warned. 3. This section is for psytrance reviews and psytrance related genres reviews. If you want to discuss the best releases this year, what albums should be considered classics, the reviews section layout, the quality of reviews, the latest Tool release, want to request a review, etc. etc., then please use the General or Off-Topic sections of the forum! This is intended for psytrance music and subgenres so no reviews of parties or other music genres. A bigger tolerance will be allowed for old stuff (stuff released before 96) since back then there wasn't an "official definition" of psytrance. Also chillout/ambient genres are allowed as per usual. 4. Before posting a new review, check if a review of the album hasnt already been written. If its the case then write your review in the already existing thread and do NOT open a new one! Finding older topics should be easy, use the Search function: type part or the whole album title and dont forget to limit the search to the subforum of the year you want to post in. If you're starting a new thread for a compilation then you should ALWAYS write the title under the format : "V/A - Name of comp". So that all the compilations will be easier to find. So do NOT start a topic with "VA" (no "/" between the V and the A) or "V/A :" (":" instead of "-"), "VA Name of Comp" (no "-" between the V/A and the name) etc. 5. When opening a new thread put the name of the album and artist in the topic title and make sure it doesnt have any typos (or else the search function wont work). If you made a mistake, you can easily re-edit the title by using the Edit button at the end of your post, if that function is not working, then use the report function and report your topic to moderators asking to correct the typos. 6. The new psynews staff has decided that first review, or first post, should always be longer than normal. This doesn't mean an essay by any means. A nice example of a short but still informative review would be this which is around 400 words long without release details. People come here to read about the release, to get some information how it is and stuff like "this release is killagrgrhrhrg" won't tell them anything. After the first post you can post mini-reviews and discussion if you so wish, but no derailing of a thread is allowed. If you feel so strongly about something that does not generally have much to do with the release, please make a thread in an appropriate section and stop posting in the review thread. 7. Personal grudges against artists or reviewers are not welcomed and will be deleted and might lead to moderation so try to use your brain before posting. If you have anything to say to the artist or another reviewer you can always PM (Private Message) or e-mail them. 8. When you open a thread please include Cover Art, Tracklist(preferably with track lengths), release date, label etc. relevant information regarding the album you are reviewing. Also it might be a good idea to include links to shops that are selling the release. 9. For color or size codes please do not over-do with them and remember this forum has 2 skins so the color white won't show up on another and color black won't on the other. Also remember to clean up font formatting that may be carried over when copying your review from one site to another. For Image usage, it is allowed to post images or gifs in reviews but for images try to keep them relatively small so it won't make the review look cluttered and cause problems for readers. Here is a few well made reviews that should give the general idea on how a review should look. X X X X Happy reviewing!
  4. There's been posts about that going around in general and it's kind of annoying. I'm surprised no bandcamp download though?
  5. The title track is EPIC. Theeree isss noo g-g-g-g-o-o-d-d-d
  6. I'm starting to understand where the problem stems from.
  7. It sounds like a crossover Cosmic Dimension / E-mantra / Mindsphere. I don't like the Cosmic Dimension part of it but the rest yes.
  8. Well the most popular places are Discogs, psyshop, bandcamp, beatspace and the labels own shops (suntrip, anjuna, dat, etc.)
  9. No doubt. That track is really growing on me. Those off-key moments are brilliant (2:06 for example). I really hope he's making a new album, because this stuff is downright epic.
  10. Some updates https://soundcloud.com/ubaruva https://soundcloud.com/ubaruva/daini-no-yogen-demo It's like a blend of poppy electro with the ubar twist, lovely melodies Also an unreleased track https://soundcloud.com/ubaruva/asua-biomechanoid-1997
  11. I've seen loads of indiegogo and kickstarter scams and I think they are a scum thing to do, I only assumed this was the case as well since the page indeed had no updates for 6 months(something to keep in mind). I am glad to have been proven wrong that you have indeed contacted your supporters.
  12. It's curious you think I would go to isratrance to find posts by you. Updating the indiegogo page is only the most logical solution since that's where you got the funding. And my opinion is not that of reflective of the staff of psynews for the topic at hand if that's what you think.
  13. feelgoodmusic
  14. I have to admit this is pretty scummy.
  15. Last summer I started to appreciate Trancemission and They Will Communicate a lot more, from the former being a totally stellar track and the latter ranking up as a summer track. The first track is still a little cheesy though.
  16. Some awesome tracks here. Prog is getting so good lately!
  17. I've listened to some recent tristan tracks and I've found them pretty decent. Much better than Chemisphere stuff.
  18. This is pointless. Just stop.
  19. As someone who has witnessed many public meltdowns, I would advice to just drop it. While I see Richpa's point, I also see how it really just doesn't matter to everyone, but retaliating with insults or backhanded comments is not a good idea. Especially if you are doing such on an official account. It's bad for business and creates a negative image on the brand you're trying to promote. Just learn to accept that not everyone will be pleased with everything. The best you can do is take the feedback and try to do better, leave a reply as to why such a decision might've been made(which you did) and leave it be, or just ignore it. Getting personal and angry over it won't do you any good. Just my two cents and I hope we can end this here.
  20. That was very good!
  21. It might be that bandcamp is just bugging out. I like the cover but not sure about the text.
