oke towards the end the crowd starts moving a bit more

good old days...? To me it seems like a really boring party ...Almost no one is dancing properly... The music is great but the crowd isn't reacting to it... I think I a living the good old days here in belgium with our partys but great set OOOD ! Thanks for sharing the video!

This is I think the only goa album that can really comford me if I am down! So deep, it drags you in too the music and out of this world, beautifull! Allmost all the goa I know that trully touches me not just freaks me out is light and melodic goa, but when I am down I really ain't in the mood for melodic stuff so this album is a bless! Generall whenever I feel like listenings to some SERIOUS music this one is soo gooood! I standes alone in its suble trance style combined with the dark atmosphere and the deep emotion coming out of it! Certainly a favorite no overload at pretty good melodies and sounds but only well thought sounds and melodies with great songs structure ! Quality over quantity in many aspects !

oke this is the first time I make a decent review for an album. Since the end of psynews might be near I think I should give it a shot I have listened to this album 3 times with great attention and this is what I have to say about it: Kiriyama - Reach Escape Velocity Style: Psy-Trance, Dub, Goa Trance Tracklist 1 Reach Escape Velocity 11:32 2 Congratulations (Crawl Into My Mouth) 11:40 3 30 Cycles 10:19 4 Unexpecting The Expected 9:40 5 Moving Hills Barefoot 9:01 6 Ablaze (Time Leap Mix) 10:55 7 Rapide Ou Plus Lent 9:07 8 Space Between Spaces It got a sticker on it with 'infused with the twilight sound of scandinavia and mysticism of Goa trance. Ready to travel north? Sounds good doesn't it? First of all Long songs! I like long songs it is mosly an indication that the artists has allot to "say" in a song and that he takes his time to let a song develope. Lets see Track 1:Reach Escape Velocity Its starts with a deep and atmospheric sound. A great atmosphere, the background noises are amazing! Then there come some great high pitched harp or piano melody's reminds me of Procs-lonely land of tada allot. The song developes new layers come and go it gets complexer the structure developes it gets an atmosphere with allot of tension. I hear those old fire allarms with allot of reverb on them, or ar it horns being blown I can't tell, but it gets an organic'alarm-phaze-feeling' going. So in short verry organic complex psychedelic sound with gentle light-as-a-feather scandanavian melody's that 'go up' in the atmosphere. Nice song certainly! Track 2:Congratulations (Crawl Into My Mouth) Same deep organic scando sound. A sample with a child saying "congratulations" seeps by. More twisted sound then the first song. Now the tension is less alarming like. Tis song goes more in the direction of derango style with al the twisted forest sounds. The sounds are all messed up they make up a complex swamp of organic sounds and dramatic (maybe slightly out of tune???) melody's. So also a great song! Track 3:30 Cycles More or less same sound as the other two. This song changes in form several times in the song, I don't know how to explain it, it is what koxbox does all the time in dragontales: constant changing the form of the song. This song isn't that extreme as Koxbox vut it get's that same feeling going a bit for me. I really notive a continuum here between melody and sound fx with allot of the sounds somewhere in the middle between a melody and a strange organic sound fx: great!. Also something that reminds me of koxbox! Then there is also some breakbeaty playing around here not much but just enough to get that chaotic feeling going.And the kick changes several times so just when you forgot it was there it recaptures your atention by coming back ... different (another kick sound I presume). The melody (what you can call melody's offcourse) work here is great how the interact with the atmosphere how they create that strange drama feeling... This track is allready a favorite! track 4:Unexpecting The Expected Nice title! This song is really nice too. It allready more goa trancy then the first ones. The goa trancy melody comes at the second part and the first part is more the 'expecting part' I guess. The end reminds me of dark goa trance like cydonia or UX only slightly more twisted and scando sounding. Some Botfb influence too I guess. Cerntainly becomes more trancy then the first songs. But then the next song comes. Track 5:Moving Hills Barefoot 9:01 this is a strange one! It combines elements from both ends of my scope of what psytrance I enjoy. Let me explain. It got that same vibe going as the first song that foresty scando beat with all the fx's and atmosphere. But there is a verry verry trancy melody on top of it. It sounds really odd in my ears. The melody could be from a man with no name trance track or califonria sunshine or something. But that combined with the rest of the song that is really dark, hard, and driving creates a really strange sound. In my ears they don't go together at all... But maybe I will get used to it... Some of the songs I hated the most in the past have become favorites now so let's see. It is certainly the most experimental song on this album I think. Track 6:Ablaze (Time Leap Mix) 10:55 Well after being suprised by 'trance elements' in track 5 this track begins and in my opinion this is a goa trance track. It is a dark atmospheric and acidic goa trance track. So allot of acid melody's I love those, It is what got me in to this music so: Hell Yeah! nice song! It is comparable with songs of syb unity nettwork I think only less straight forward and less of that cinematic melody's like cydonia. Some good dark melody's of wich some remind me of some song but I can't figure out wich.... track 7:Rapide Ou Plus Lent The slowest song of the upbeat tracks. More groovy then the rest but as atmospheric as all the other songs. Some acidic melody's also. More emotional the the last song. I feel strange combo's in this song like in track 5, but here they don't bother me. Original sound I think! good song! track 8:Space Between Spaces I always look forward to the slow one on dark albums. And this one is worth looking forward too! The beginning reminds me of weird wondering wood worlds by purosurpo. It is what you get when a forest artist makes ambient/chill sounds. Awsome! I think forest is THE psytrance that is closest to Ambient The two music styles are about atmosphere and sounds structure imo! And you hear this guy has can make good atmosphere's!Organic Sounds of the forest combined with mystical slow melody's and pads. Some acid sounds come in and then the song takes on more of a dub form, it gets really cinematic towards the end!. Grrrreaat track! So a good album! Altough I have only gave it 3 spins I think I will listen to it allot in the future. There is allot of detail in this album certainlt in the first songs. It is a good album, I am exciting of how it will sound in the future. For now I give it a 8.5/10 AVAILABLE THROUGH: Wirikuta (Austria) / Saiko Sounds / (Hong Kong) / Beatspace (Italy) / GoaStore (Switzerland) / Juno Records (England) / Bravo Records (Japan)

Is there any more info on this? When is it going to be released?

Well this is a difficult one.... I really like the slow entrancing style of this music that combined with darkness usually is enough to turn me on.. But in my opinion it lacks complexity. It sounds to easy most of the time. And the "lsd", "acid", and "psychedelic" samples are really not original. With just a bit more work and attention to it I would really love this music but now its too simple.. but because I really like the entrancing dark organic scando sound I still enjoy this album but its not good for listening with great attention or really going into the music... 3.5/5

now that's a good cover ! samples sound verry interesting! thanks antic for getting my attention on this !

+ verry unique, + verry psychedelic, + verry intense if you get into it + works really well as an album-experience + the samples of people cheering and clapping work also really good - I don't like some of the breakbeaty & skipping stuff but it isn' bothering me - some song are a bit too expirimental to my taste track 9 for example

yeah I really want to hear this to!!! But only one person on discogs has it ..... I hope :he releases it as an album (it IS a promo album right) or he trows it online somewhere... but the most of all I hope it is good :)

thanks man for making me hear this! this is an awsome unique superb track! really really really good!Really! I talked before about how ambient can be so psychedelic for me well this track tickels my "ambient knob" and my "psy trance knob" at the same time and some other knobs I didn't know the existence of now my only question is: are there more of these tracks?

some cds I am willing to sell/trade I have decided after long doubts to sell/trade this one : pleadians - ifo near mint (nova tekk version) Gone the rest: Asia 2001 - ra 24€ va - pure goa vg+ (digipack nm) 43 € johann - blow your mind vg+ 8€ procs - land of tada nieuw 9€ zymosis - elements into data nieuw 8€

no no that was shiva joerg who djed they switched places on the timetable , sandman brought an excellent real live act!

For me the most psychedelic track is convergent image by psylent buddhi That is the only song ever I had to stop listening to because it got too intense.... Its a song I only listen to when I am "prepared" :p Creatures from reflecta is also in the top-psychedelic tracks for me maybe another kind of psychedelic... but good space ambient get's me in a different state of mind more easely then most goa and the effects last longer too...

I only saw one and it is by far the best live act I ever saw, and it was totally unexpected! one of the most disappionting live acts was gnotr a few years ago in (ghent, belgium) when they had a bongo player with them ..... awfull!

how is the song called with the sample : "i have planned this moment for years" he played it on boom and now I am listening to a live-set from 96 with the same song...it runs shivvers down my spine! it's not on psydb...

@yohankiwi your link still doesn't work can you try again? probably just the link to the sendspace file that is wrong.. really funny that this topic is here I was looking for a live set of eat static myself just now after I saw him live at boom. He was amazing !Now I am trying to figure out what music he played ... I am downloading allot of stuff from him but I can't seem to find the right stuff ... It was more dancing oriented then the his/theire released stuff it seems... Can anybody tell me which songs he played there?

I was very suprised reading this review page... I think it is a good album , its nice dreamy goa trance! Not really dancefloor oriented. But I think goa trance is more than just dance music... And it is clearly goa trance! I a beginning to doubt we all listened to the same album... It get 4.72/5 on discogs .... anyone of the above persons wants to sell it to me? :lol:I

Eye am the I !!! (begins on 2min 17)That melody is sooo epic really my personal favorite goa melody! and one of my all time favorite songs! it's also quite long melody adn works great with the other melody sublime song!

93: Its the only music that gets you to the point that you just.... can't... dance... any.. harder! 94: It makes you love everyone around you on the dancfloor 95: It the only music that gets people too the point the want to make a 604 long list of reasons why the love it! great idea Now we can share and bundle our love for this music

gone

well I have to agree with djuna the khetzal song doens't sound that dark after all and so do most of the songs... I had expected it a bit darker../. but it shure sounds like a great album!

sounds AWSOME! khetzal seems pulls of his atmospheric talent in a dark way veeery nice! and k.o.b .... sound superb too (I still think he should release that album he was working on! I loooove that weird swedish sound that is in his blood I guess but that is lacking in his filteria project..)
