  1. As the title says... http://www.myspace.com/totaleclipsefr This is progressive, but the old Total Eclipse sound is still noticeable, check the samples. Total Eclipse is one of my old favorites, so I really hope It wil turn out great.
  2. I knew he grew disillusioned with the trance scene as a whole, but he's got a dub project with Celli Firmi called Third Ear Audio http://www.myspace.com/thirdearaudio However their album has been "completed recently" for a couple of years now...
  3. Hi Guys Look what I just found: http://cdbaby.com/cd/nickbarber It's not even listed on Discogs...
  4. Koxbox - Acid Vol. 3 & Birdy Artist: Koxbox Title: Acid Vol. 3 & Birdy Label: Outlout Records Date: 1993 Discogs: http://www.discogs.com/Koxbox-Acid-Vol-3-B.../release/207681 Track listing: A: Acid Vol. 3 B: Birdy Review: I can’t believe that no one has reviewed this baby yet. And it is in fact a baby since this is one of the first, if not the first ever release by Koxbox. Both tracks have that Koxbox sound to it, which is very psychedelic and quite unique. The two presented tracks are very old school, and some people may find that they haven’t aged well. However, I find them great for home listening and very entertaining. The cover art is awesome and the fact that it is in black and white just confirms that this is very old school. Acid vol. 3 After some slowing pitched synths, you immediately get some acid-lines thrown in yer face, and not many seconds’ passes before you are hit yet again, this time by the bass. Pumping along, Koxbox introduces you to the lead melody which are quickly complimented by/ transformed into some rolling synths, which initially sounds like percussion to me. The track comes to a dreamy breakdown with only a quick break in the bass department. When introduced to the lead melody again, you find out how addicting it is, and during the following psychedelically crazed passages, you are longing for a return. Instead you are introduced to a new melody, using the same percussionized synth, which may not be as powerful as the original. An Arabic atmosphere is created along the end which concludes with the same slowing pitched synths it all started with. Birdy The song starts out with some birds chirping accompanied by eerie surrounding synths. A nice build up brings a stomping bass, although characterized by the old school years in which it was created. Rolling acidic synth follows the lead melody, with trippy sounds that conserves the eerie and very psychedelic atmosphere. There is a crazy breakdown around the middle of the track, and a good builddown before the end. There has been made a music video for Birdy, which is awesome. It contains some old black/white stock footage of people swing dancing and some scientists with old computers. Its fits the song very well, as the pictures cuts with the beat. Both tracks are very old school, but as psychedelic as Koxbox ever was. The tracks are not very fast and they run along with around 130 BPMs I think. If you are a fan of Koxbox, this is a definite buy, and I recommend Acid Vol. 3/Birdy 12” over the Crystal/World of Illusions 12”. You get the best of Koxbox on their album Dragon Tales, but it is great to be introduced to their earlier years of psychedelic trance (Or psychedelic dance music as I head Peter Candy call it in an interview).

  5. Backed by popular demand, I'm posting a link to a documentary about the first Goa trance club in England or whatever... It's cool to see fotage of the old club scene, with Dominic Lamb smoking Joints while playing his DJset, and Mark Allen in his bummy apartment... The link is the first part in a series.
  6. Better than original: Disco Volante - Chameleon (Pixelmorph Mix) <- remix by UX Slinky Wizard - The Wizard (Koxbox Remix) Dunno if better or not: Total Eclipse - Free Lemonade (Psychaos Remix) All three awesome!
  7. Wow, I'd buy it: http://www.arabesquedistribution.com//inde...35&Itemid=1 Any additional info?
  8. Some great news on the compilation: http://blueplanetcorporationmusic.blogspot...ompilation.html If I mention the name Draeke, you can probably guess what... What is the deal with Northern Exposure Recordings, does anyone have some info? How can they have released Blue Planet? - it's fairly cheap by the way, but the tracks have been taken directly from the CD, not from Gabriels master session... http://www.northern-exposure.biz/
  9. Ok I got a little triggerhappy there. It's the Almost Human track by Eat Static, an awesome track. If you feel the pointlessness of this topic, sit yourself down and watch the aforementioned Docu. it should be worth your time... Maybe you will yourself, recognize a forgotten track... Pixma
  10. What is the name of the track in the beginning of the video? By the way this is part 4 in a documentary about the first Goa trance club in England or whatever... It's cool to see fotage of the old club scene, with Dominic Lamb smoking Joints while playing his DJset, and Mark Allen in his bummy apartment... Can you help me identify the track?
