check how are acting the lame reviewing pool here in the review section, all their official isratrance review are mentioned with link to the isratrance site, why don't they make it on all the psyboards ? If it's a promotion act , they should no ?Engrish prz?
It seems Isratrance only wants to destroy the psynews review section , lame (especially when you know how low is the health of this scene)...
-
but isn't the core melody (the saxo part) the same in Dream & Happy children ?
maybe just me confounding both

The importance of the remixes for the Eurodance industry has always been relevant & effective =>
many good examples comes with Space Master

double shot from P Lion (italo-disco/eurodance) :
big anthem especially in France, as was the soundtrack of "Top 50' Tv showsince 1984
Less known from 1992 but more eurodance effective

All without exceptions, reviews posted on isratrance.com (the site not the forum) are lame by the simple principle of cautioning the commercial drifts from Isratrance, i let you think or not about it.? ..
.. 
.. :clapping: come on man, whats with the fed-up attitude? I know replying might burn me but I'm in that pool of mud you call reviews getting music from Isra, and I think it's kinda shpaa..
I guess I could defend and break and elaborate, but I'm to stoned
*
either way, psyreviews is good with words and loads of respect to his opinions and style!!
check out some reviews of mine on Isratrance.com and http://www.myspace.com/psytonesmusic

Since Shahar decided to literally fucked up what rest of the psytrance scene with his lame idea of reviewing pool including leeching reviews, asking for temporary exclusivity for Isratrance from the reviewers , claiming some goodies will be decerned to the reviewers pool, the come-back of Psyreviews is that sort of counterweight versus Isratrance review's pool.

yep more elaborated than "it's pure crap" for example :posford: btw it fits well with the whole Aleph Zero's releases.For some reason this sounds like such a beautiful description

It's too mad to be Power Source and the kick + bass don't sound like Sandman IMO.
The real core-structure of the track starts at 2"45 before is a long intro not trustable for any identification. What makes me think it's a remix of End of the world is the period after the break at 5"50, coz you've got the voice sample then it's very similar to the Green House effect remix of End of the world more in uptempo.
The break is quite astonishing for a goa tune, never heard so floating break this way before that's the big mystery for me, even the layers are genuine
-
hum make me think a featuring which could be something like Infected Mushroom vs Hujaboy ... don't know if really this cooperation occured by the past btw.
-
definitively not !Sounds like Technossomy
i' would bet on Power Source or Sandman instead, maybe one of the numerous remix made of End Of The World originally by produced by Sandman.
-
my opinion is that if possible you should give the following of the sample you put coz it was starting to get more genuine & more identifiableunfortunatelly not Alphanaut... checked most of their tracks and its non of these
but thanks for trying
cmon folks, somebody for sure recognizes this nice tune :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:

Btw i've got a question maybe off topic but a bit linked after all, i mean lots of artists have disappeared from the scene as we can check with this topic. By extension it also means several labels closed too ...
There's 2-3 years, when i was still following closely the scene i remember people (head label, artists) claiming the sells were drastic collapsing , announcing figures such as 500 copies as nearly a norm for small labels, over 1000 upto 2000 if good selling & exceptionally one or 2 big names (you know what i mean) 5000.
Ok now it's summer 2009, 2-3 years, i'm quite surprised by the so many releases to come out by the birth of so numerous labels in new counties nevertheless, i've the feel that sells are still lower...
So clearly, was wondering if for example today, the standard norm of a good psytrance or chill label sells has achieved the low level of 500 copies (not only the little but nearly all labels indeed)?
If you have some infos, figures, they're welcome

+1 for Bluetech, never was amazed by his style a bit cheesy commercial & not fully chill but somehow slow motion dream-trance.Bluetech is the one that stands out the most for me at present.
I've tried a few times to give it a chance but it hasn't clicked yet.
I'll still probably purchase the first 2 albums in the near future and play them every now and again and see if anything changes in my mind.
It's great to keep one's perspective fairly open. If I don't enjoy something right away it's fun to try and listen to it in a different way on the next play, or at another time of day, or focusing on different elements of the track/album to hopefully hear what the artist is trying to say.

According to discogs he's been involved in the Earthdance charity event from 1997 to 2007 as Executive producer => http://www.discogs.com/artist/Chris+Deckker?anv=Chris+DeckerThere are rumours in the Uk that club night Return to the source is set to start up again, and it got me wondering does anyone know what Chris Decker (Medicine drum) is up to nowadays ?

Snyper => Snyper was formed during 2k by two friends in Helsinki,Finland. The aim was to experience ,and create unique & energetic full on with a story.This final mission still as a main clue, Snyper continues as solo-project,channelling and releasing energies with a twist and shake .Experiencing with (tri)ballistical influences but still bringing the vibe back to phat freestyle "suomisaundi". RELEASES: "Snyper Showcase EP 2001 (Thixx..n..Dixx),Stanufunk EP 2005 (Antiscarp Records), SARS EP 2007 (Antiscarp Records), Bulletproof CD 2009 (Antiscarp records).
Today for this album, Snyper consists in Sampo Valtonen, helped on some tracks from Saiko Disco (track 5), Robomatec (track 9), Dj Jonas (Track 10).
Antiscarp records => Suomitrance specialities from finland electronic music producers providing antiscarp music for all freakadelic listeners worldwide.
Globally downloadable for free =>
Antiscarp Recordings is taken care by team Antiscarp,
and its been online since 2001, providing loads of Antiscarped Tunes For Full Download in mp3 format, made by group of Finnish trance acts.
Bulletproof =>
1=> We've got a big round & deaf bass with hacked brass lead the whole rocked in an hypnotic technoish background with some electrified metallic tones. It's not fully dance floor yet, rather sort of musical "aperitif" of what's coming next...The track matches perfectly its place at starting although if you listen to the album in a random order, it could appear less attractive than tis way unless if you got it for the end
.2=> Here comes a cyber groovy production, with fat bass & rhythmic, it's stomping not very fast but quite multi-layered, like a giant or a big monster devastating everything on its path. From 3"00, the melodic gets more twirling, like a ripost of a flying defensive team leaded by a superhero with floating abilities from everywhere against the enemy.
3=> We're keep here the stomping side, & i've got a major worry with the mix
. I mean each outnumbered elements result at the same maximum high level all along, perfect to get quickly an headache...4 => This tune is funky fresh style as hell & with his brass loop in the background is massively Haltya's alike confounding, excepting some transpose against which i've nothing wrong about.
5=> Despite obvious differences with previous track, it constitutes a nice following. The unique common point resulting as transposes use here in a dreamy, floating & morning progressive construction. I'm really enjoying the mix of the groovy tune married with this deep nebulous soundscapes.
6=> It's probably the most typical Suomisounding tune of the album with a raw fast entrance, indeed no really time for any kind of preparation you're directly thrown in the whirlwind. You got very few time to take a second breath as the tempo is so high, so be careful & avoid the asphyxia while dancing on it ! Ultra fast, hypnotic, catching & bewitching stuff, what is all about. Once it's finished for you dancing on it , it's like the things out of the washing machine, it's clean, but still wet
7=> Fat hypnotic Funky tune, with metallic tones. From 3"00, a big rumbling lead appears despite it's into an area flooded of sounds, your brain won't be able to concentrate elsewhere. Acting as a magnet on your neuron it's impressive, nevertheless i find out the whole thing to lack little ingredients (salt or pepper ? i don't really know what ...) to achieve a hit status.
8=> Change of ambiance here, it's about dark & mysterious atmosphere in rather mid-tempo mode, there's a strong feeling of a laborious progression of a hero in a hostile environment filled with bats. Definitely this track is story telling.
9=> I've got an astonishing skating feeling at first but quite fun at final. This one is rather nicely funky too with mewing sounds resulting an overall happy atmosphere. I have a regret about the kick-snare combo which cruelly lacks of variety , more exactly doesn't really match with the different emphasis of the tune as revealing all along the same linear part
. Otherwise i like the school ringing alike tone used here along side with the traffic jam sirens.Tracks 10 & 11 have in common not to fit my taste, both are into a psy-energic-linear-rush style and by the way are deeply lacking of a real soul.
12=> I retain mainly here the Marin scents & turmoil's feeling conferred by the hypnotic melodic & aquatic loops & bass line transpose uses coupled sometimes with filter. While maybe not aimed for this purpose, i consider this song quite effective for psy-chilling
Verdict => Astonishingly, what my brain remembers mainly is the duality between nearly 3 quarter of the album resulting of a normal high & low along the tunes but seriously produced & a quarter (Tracks 3,10,11) which sounds like lazy, swift stuffs for filling an album with a quality largely inferior either in ideas & production development.
Bulletproof results eclectic in his Suomisounding, sometimes reminds you about Haltya, other times could be more Squaremeat or Texas Faggot...
Otherwise i've also retain the nice story telling capacity of several tunes which constitutes the trademark of Snyper for this genre.
I'd advice to check in priority those tracks :1,4,5,6,8,9,12

Snyper - Bulletproof

3d vision is full on without doubt whereas Absolum is psy-full on (i consider his albums) it's different , i don't mix both.Well why only the Israeli style can be considered as pure full on and not the more aggressive stuff?
After all full on as a term means energy so the purest form Full On for me is the Absolum style and not the Israeli stuff.
This is how I see it: Back in 2000 the were two sides of Full On. The Alien Project/Astrix style which was born from the GMS formula and the more aggressive 3D Vision style which was born from Absolum-Wild.
Eventually the Astrix style dominated the releases and sales, which led many ppl to believe that Full On is just that, while they were other more aggressive Full On acts even from the early 2000's.
IMO of course.
Coz i already wrote it the aggressive side take more influences from the psytrance , darker can't be considered the same. Full on is about ENERGY not agressivity that's the spot! Full on is mainstream dancefloor, 3d vision so, Absolum's album can't be qualified as mainstream that's all.
Furthermore Israeli's scene has always been influenced by the club scene, for example Astrix before being the real writer of Alien Project songs has released tons of unknow tracks qualified as Nitzohot.
-
Nothing really bad at first with Full on, it has known its golden age with several releases including Hom Mega with Astrix - Eye to Eye, Cosma - Non Stop, Psysex - Hardcore Blastoff. We could also named Infected Mushroom despite they were between full on & psy & never know how really situate them.Why are people here talking of full-on as something bad? My knowledge of sub-genres of trance is not so good (as I have pointed out before). But I think one album I have that has been described as full-on is really good, Electric Universe - Cosmic Experience. Or is it just that this album is an exception?
Indeed someone here in this thread, told full on is an Israeli thing mainly, that's quite true. What happened is that full on evolved to more commercial influences like Hardtrance, resulting easy tricks, tips to get the more effect on the most people possible with sounds you could listen to when you're at the funfair.
About Absolum mentioned by Ormion, it's not really typical Full on, it's darker, more aggressive it's closer to the South African style somehow despite Absolum style is anterior to it.
For both case, i consider their style as psy-full on & not plently full on.
And the trend norm of Full on is so at 85% pure crap today.
-
There's also the releases from 6 Dimension Soundz with Sci Forest & of Course Mandalavandalz ( a side project of Texas Faggot), you can add Antiscarp rec too for Suomisaundi.
Not fully Suomisaundoi but quite closed, more Forest Trance oriented there's the debut album from Ozmali
-
I don't understand the hype for Principle of Flight , the first album was just a copycat of some trendy stuffs at the time such as The Misted Muppets, nothing more nothing less; quite strange to me
-
I agree with those thinking here the band is over estimated.

Don't know anything about the new situation of Spiral Trax... Concerning Psyshop they take care of exclusive distribution for many labels, so it's possible that now Spiral Trax belongs to this list without being held by Psyshop you seeI haven't gotten the opportunity to move my feet to and listen to it on a big-ass system, yet. Its good and all, but kind of bores me, guess it's saved by some smooth changes here and there. I'm not a huge fan or knower of the Minimal Techno stuff being played around in every Club and home of friends, but I've heard this many times before, so the album isn't revolutionary or groundbreaking or anything at all. Just a nice piece of Minimal Techno music coming from IzrAel's club scene with a touch added by Shahar. I was lucky enough to hear the bonus tracks on the compact stick once (i got the cd), and if my memory is correct, those tracks on the CP sounded more interesting to me than the actual Zero Sum release.
:smoke:
e.
irony? Just felt like irony when I read it ^^
your words about it being camouflaged minitech makes it sound interesting. you like the vinlyl knitterings or what?
So! What about my initial question if Psyshop is the new owners of Spiral Trax, any confirments ?
EDit : I checked both Psyshop & German head office of spiral Trax adress & you're right that's the same one!
Ronsu - Nevermind the 1´s and 0´s (Antiscarp Records) EP
in 2010
Posted
Ronsu - Nevermind the 1´s and 0´s (Antiscarp Records)
Tracklisting:
01.Ronsu - Torkee Tuhina
02.Ronsu - Best Sides of 1 and 0
03.Ronsu - X-Ray
Ok, so let's first give some introductory words about Ronsu. It's a Finnish guy but you could guess it as signed on Antiscarp records
. Despite some activities through different groups like Vihtahousu and Ohuet Kujat , it's the first time I've heard about Jussi Niemi.
His style plenty inserts itself into the Nordic Psyche sound which means an alchemy of Goa, Funk, Electronic, hypnotic, metallic, rough & raving spirit for his case.
It could be sounding as a Finnish evolution of Quirk to clearly & easily sum up the idea.
Inside the sound => Indeed it's quite simple, we've got 3 Ronsu's tracks & 3 different degree of Ronsu's production.
1st floor would be track 1, this is the soft-area which can be explained by the fact it consists in a remix of a previous collaboration work from Ronsu. Nevertheless, this is the one which pleases me the more on this EP. The style reminds me Ozmali début album last year although I precise here there's no live jam concept effect at all.
Last floor , so track 2, which evokes me a high tweaked raving hypnotic Japanese production, i mean Sci Forest (released on 6 Dimension-soundz). Here you got something more difficult to catch i think, mental stuff here.
2nd floor would be track 3, quite obvious it's a compromise to me between what's proposed in the 2 other tracks. Indeed it's punchier than track 1, it keeps the raving bank-tones from track 2 but in a clearly more dance-floor orientation.
