Just like IM style is different. Dunno, because it would be interesting to see how would that sound with sucha mixture of different styles and approaches. Sorry Radi, I forgot about your melodies! I agree, Imba would be a great addition, you all guys do some oldschool, maybe just NYHO pretends to more newschool, but he's doing vocals so that won't reflect anything Just imagine how awesome the vocals would be, they all know how to pick and manipulate the voices briliantly. Sounds like a winner to me!

You're always on my mind

So this topic should be about fun and the imagination. We're looking for ultimate super-group in Goa trance. You can choose up to 4 members who are into music production and even give your own name to the group. We're missing some relaxed topics in General psytrance lately. So much talking about modern vs. oldschool mastering, overrated artists, etc, so why not drop some interesting suggestions and line-ups and have fun? I'll break the ice: My first supergroup: Lior (Astral Projection), Simon (Hallucinogen), Erez (Infected Mushroom) The name should be something that reffers to the neverending waiting for a new psychedelic trance/Goa album. Erez won't release it probably because he's into dubstep with bald dude, Simon is busy playing YB/Shpongle stuff and Lior is releasing live clips on YouTube. But this is a wet dream line-up for me. Especially because I think the combination Lior/Erez can deliver some of the best melodies and Si can deal with FX and overall atmosphere! I didn't want to add 4th member (probably it would be someone from Etnica) just because I think it would be too crowded. Second supergroup: Filipe (Lost Buddha), Elysium, Radi, and NHYO HYNNERO as NHYO HYNNERO from south korea, russia, etc. The name: STEEP MOUNTAIN PROJECTION. Filipe can deal with melodic parts, Elysium can do some epic rhythms, Radi will do FX and open 13 topics about it and NHJO on vox. Thrid supergroup: Jannis (Filteria), Christian (Morphic R), Max and Mauri (Etnica) Two legends one which is becoming and one youngster. Max and Mauri can create some outstanding rhythms here, while Jannis and Christian can play some melodies, i'm sure it would be great to see this experiment. The name: RESETERIAL

I'm not the biggest fan aswell.

Tracklist has been finalized today! I want to thank to all of you who posted your favorites here on Psynews aswell as on Neogoa and Suntrip facebook pages! We will post annoucement and reveal the tracklist in the upcoming days! This is exciting!

Tracklist finalized today! Full annoucement will be posted soon alongside with many other details for this compilation!

It's hard to follow properly all thoose releases, but most of the stuff that comes from their sub-label Timewarp is worth checking, especially compilations.

After the release of Chromatic World for FREE DOWNLOAD at Neogoa, MORPHIC RESONANCE will play live in Portugal, Croatia and Spain during the upcoming months! Thank you all for your reviews, downloads, shares, and especially to Luis from BLACKSTARRFINALE who actually gave me a hint for this dude!

EP has been mastered and it can already be previewed through YouTube. Hopefully it will be on Ektoplazm soon for free download aswell. Enjoy!

If people show interest for this album, I'm sure Arronax or I can easily place this one into Kunaki manufacturing process, but judging by the response for Chatoic Synthetics, the whole effort to have that one in physical format was a bad idea.

I'm happy to reveal the back artwork for this album.

I met Kanc from Goasia couple of times and had great times with him, very cool dude who enjoy talking about music in general. I also met Saša from PsiloCybian/Screw Loose who is a legend, really friendly dude who is 120% into music production so it was fun talking with him, besides thoose I met Lunar Dawn duo (Kristijan and Saša) and we had a blast alongside with DJ Stevo, a lot of rakija, funny stories and memories that I will remember for a looong time. I also met Igor from Perfect Blind / Deimos when he had a gig in my hometown and he is also a great dude, very humble and great person. Anyway I think the most of the artists in Goa genre are friendly and are willing to interact with their fans and doesn't have that star attitude, which is a cool thing, but I haven't met any big names, so I can't speak about thoose

BAT ITZ ALL GOATRANCE

Good stuff Stiven! When it comes to techno and Croatia I can't think better example than mr. Petar Dundov. Good God, that guy knows how to create unique atmospheric techno music, with flawless production. https://soundcloud.com/petardundov

Couldn't agree more. Technical death metal got some of the most amazing bands, especially if you appriciate the complex music. Btw, I smell Opeth in this track :D

Oh my God, new Agalloch album has been released and it sounds AWESOME! One of thoose bands when you know when they publish new material, it will sound good! Here is sweet review by Witchfvcker For a band as universally adored and lauded as Agalloch, their will to repeat themselves is almost non-existent. From the sweeping Ulver-influenced black metal of Pale Folklore, the crisp doomy winter landscapes of The Mantle, and even the gorgeously subtle neofolk of The White EP, the Portland-based group have proved themselves as masters of many disciplines. Drawing inspiration from beyond the borderlands of metal, the band has worked hard to attain their now broad following. The release of a new Agalloch-album is always accompanied by almost painful anticipation. For their fifth album, The Serpent And The Sphere, their characteristically earthbound and pantheistic lyrical themes are replaced with cosmic vistas and celestial grandeur, revealing another digression from their past achievements. For such a monumental effort, Agalloch’s previous full-length Marrow Of The Spirit still drew some criticism for seeing the band returning to trodden paths. Instead of reinventing their sound, the album was a synthesis of what had come before, adapting bits and pieces to create something novel and fresh. This approach is also to some degree true of The Serpent And The Sphere, which transposes more than a few touches from The Mantle. Although few albums can approach the sheer perfection of that particular effort, the familiar musical themes are by no means derivative. From the opening track “Birth And Death Of The Pillars Of Creation” a familiarly mellow acoustic guitar takes the forefront. Don Anderson’s sweeping riffs, sounding like an evolved variation of those found on Ashes Against The Grain, are interspersed with John Haughm’s delicate picking. Fans of the band may be disappointed to hear that Haughm’s characteristic clean vocals are relegated to the background for the entirety of this album. Instead the weight is placed on whispered rasps and the occasional feral growl. Somewhat unorthodox even by Agalloch’s standards, the lengthy opening track is ponderous and muted, weighing heavily with sorrow and nostalgia. The three short acoustic interludes “Serpens Caput”, “Cor Serpentis”, and “Serpens Cauda”, are composed and performed by Nathanaël Larochette of the Canadian neofolk project Musk Ox. These tracks divides the album into two parts, and while they are atmospheric in their gentleness, one is led to wonder why a band like Agalloch would bring in someone from outside to write interludes. Larochette’s contributions are minimalistic and not particularly intrusive, but pale in comparison to Agalloch’s own similar material on The White EP. As it stands, the album’s momentum suffers slightly from these toothless gaps. On “The Astral Dialogue” the pace immediately picks up. The infectious melodies are reminiscent of tracks like “I Am The Wooden Doors”, marching forwards through rolling waves of raw yet carefully measured aggression, finally reaching its apex as the dual guitars crescendo beautifully. These songs have a touch of the progressive that wasn’t as apparent on The Mantle, featuring intricately interwoven melodies and solos playing effortlessly off of each other. Jason William Walton’s steady bass-lines provides the backbone of the spacious “Dark Matter Gods”, which feels truly transcendental in its constantly expanding scope. Odd time-signatures, courtesy of Aesop Dekker (who is truly solidifying himself as a full-time Agalloch’s member), and a vast range of musical motifs, all coming together marvelously is evident of Agalloch being as confident as ever. Touches of Pink Floyd are instrumental in elevating the music onward through the terrestrial atmosphere and into the great vales beyond. The density and breadth of The Serpent And The Sphere is ambitious to say the least, exceeding all of the band’s previous work in complexity. Every song is packed with subtle moments of clarity and slight touches of brilliant minutiae. Of course more isn’t necessarily better; some of the unique attractiveness of The Mantle is its often stripped down and bare-boned approach. That’s also why songs like “Celestial Effigy” and “Vales Beyond Dimension” succeed as well as they do; they maintain a sense of unity and tightness which occasionally slips away throughout the album. These are minor complaints though, and for most of the album Agalloch succeeds spectacularly in their aspiration. To belabor a point; this is not a simple retread of familiar terrain, but the enduring evolution of a sound almost 20 years in the making. The last proper song on the album, “Plateau Of The Ages”, is somewhat analogous to the album as a whole. A constantly mounting tension is interspersed with gorgeous melodies, while the acoustic guitar strums on in the background. Completely instrumental, the 12+ minutes long post rock track almost overstays its welcome, but then explodes magnificently in the final minutes before it draws to a close. As dynamic and multifaceted as it is, The Serpent And The Sphere is a puzzle containing a throng of largely dissimilar high points, but also a few pieces that seem to stray without really going anywhere. Luckily, and as expected from a band like Agalloch, the good by far outweighs the not-quite-so-good. The serpent bites its tail as the closing notes of “Serpens Cauda” closes the great cycle. Personally I find it difficult to compare the different pieces of Agalloch’s discography, as each one has a distinctive sound and personality. The Serpent And The Sphere is no exception, although on a track by track basis it falls slightly short of the band’s greatest moments. Still, there is something here for fans of all their other work, and the sheer complexity alone makes the album bound to grow even larger upon each subsequent listen. Similarly, weirdos who dislike The Mantle or Marrow Of The Spirit are probably not going to enjoy this one either. It’s not a flawless masterpiece, but The Serpent And The Sphere is a gorgeous album and breathtaking in its depth and expansiveness.

I agree, the point was to show that the biggest names (no matter the quality) are present there. I don't have time to list all the parties that happened with less popular names which aren't chesse like thoose on the flyer

Not exactly with the same effects on the guitar solos mentioned above, but something in that melo-death style with very progressive track structure

I agree with you, it's shame because that compilation is really great!
