  1. Nothing like an outdoor rave...

     

    Of course there are a lot of factors like the amount of people, type of people and whether of course.

    I don't really like the really crowded festivals we have here in Israel, though I can still really enjoy myself.

     

    50-150 people, open space, good sound equipment, good whether and of course good music and I'm the happiest man alive.

    This is the first album by Loud (the Israeli project made up of Kobi Toledano and Eitan Reiter) that I have listened to entirely.

     

    The album provides an original sound with each track providing its own unexpected twists and turns. You can clearly hear that these two are not afraid to experiment with their music and the result is interesting and even excellent at certain points.

     

    Loose Senses:

    Excellent choice for a track name, it's impossible to predict where the music will go next. Starts out melodic and calm, builds up and gains pace and eventually brings in draker elements. This while throughout the track the sound of a Marimba instrument (at least that's how recognised it) is played.

     

    Machines 2008:

    Start out with a strong and constant beat and as the track continues more sounds are added layers upon layers, including those of work tools, the result is mesmorising.

     

    Downunder:

    Unlike the rest of the album this track has a more less non stop rhythm, rather ambient.

     

    Abstract:

    Also a fitting name like the one of the first track, an always changing pace and rhythm... very hard to define but the result is still great.

     

    Next (Album Edit):

    Starts out quite melodic continues with a steady pace and beat, eventually speeds up and in the end relapses and fades to a close.

     

    Tough Kid:

    This track is a sonic journey, the way they blended different sounds and beats... a melting pot which combines funky vibes with draker psytrance elements.

     

    Hiss:

    A colorful track with a steady pace, don't know why but I had Infected Mushroom deja vu when I listened to it.

     

    The Edge (Album Edit):

    Melodic and calm with speedy intervals that keep you alert.

     

    Disorientated (Sabotage Edit):

    Again melodic and ambient fused with faster paced intervals.

     

     

    I can only conclude that Loud have a unique sound, though you do notice I.M influences, and can be described as a freeform psytrance project. This is music I'd enjoy listening to (and I did) the case is less so if I wished to dance to it.

  3. Outdoor party. Home. Indoor Party. In that order. Loud music just sounds incredible outside when it's free to travel and not reverberating off walls, it's magical...

     

    Quoted for the truth.

     

    I'm actually curious as to how many of the people who gave an answer have been to an outdoor rave... but I guess that's for another poll.

     

    Here in Israel the scene is very strong in that sense, I don't know regarding other countries.

  4. Depends what type of party you are talking about...

     

    I never was a fan of nightclubs, so a whole new world was opened to me when I went to my first outdoor rave in the Negev.

     

    This is because of the atmosphere and the feeling you get from the crowd... as it also depends a lot on the type of people that come to such an event.

     

    Unlike in a nightclub or any other type of dancing venue, you won't see people who come to make an impression but purely for the fun and atmosphere.

     

     

    And of course because of the type of music that is exclusively played :)

  5. worst psytrance producers, well maybe infected mushroom are slightly worse but not by much.

    i am going to buy this album and burn it if it ever comes out, and if any of the labels have any

    sense they will burn the masters before its released

     

    I wouldn't go that far but yeah, I don't think they do psytrance nearly as good as they did Goa.

     

    Was hoping that their new album would maybe feature some Goa tracks.

  6. I am not afraid to say that sometimes I really enjoy what is referred to as 'cheesy' full on.

     

    I still think it's years ahead of what is perceived to be mainstream trance.

     

    And I really liked Music In my Soul.
