Review:
This CD is packed with the GMS-sound. Wich we all
know can be a little boring when to much of it is
played. Even the none-gms tracks sounds GMS-ish
Even tho the Synthetic tracks is too dark for GMS.
As the whole CD is like any GMS-tracks there is no reason
to describe it more deeply.

Review:
Yet another good compilation. You know all the groups
on this one. Yes, you should do. And with this lineup
nothing can go wrong. So..What is this all about? These
tracks are typical with each group. You can almost tell
who made the track without looking on the tracklist.
No bad tracks on this one. hmm..And none really good
either. All tracks are good and decent. It has a 'best'
track tho and that is #9 Saiko-Pod. Good samples and it
changes all the time. Awesome!

Review:
What a nice little surprise. Good ambient is presented
here. It's not ultra-ambient if you know what I mean.
It has it's breakbeats and so. Very nice. Sounds a little
like Deviant Electronics slower tracks...Maybe slightly more
experimental. Very cool melodies and I just love these loooong
bases (basses?) you know what I mean. Reminds me of Dub Trees
sometimes. Perfectly balanced vocals... Yes, this CD is GOOD.
Definently worth buying!
Final Verdict: 9/10

Review:
The first track. Hmmm..It's simply not my
cup of Coke. Sounds simple, not much things
happens here. The pause in the middle is kinda
good. Maybe this is too minimal for me..I guess so
anyway. The second track is about the same as the
first track...I don't like this. I haven't heard
Magnetrixx much before, infact, I never heard
them before. So i don't have anything with them
to compare with. But these two tracks are no good.

09. 07'30" Hypnotic
Review:
First things first; this is more on the house/trancy side.
And that means, a little more cheese than we are used
to. Anyway, he succeeds to create extremly good groovy
beats a some points end then he ruins them by putting
in those damned cheezy sounds and melodies.
As you can see in the tracklist a mix of Tandu - Alien Pump
is made. And it is by far the best track here. You can really
sense the old fashion Tandu track. Even tho the original is better.
Gain Bang and Lunar Quartet are pretty good as well. Not that cheesy
as the first tracks. The last track is better we don't talk about.
Yes, it bad alright!

07. 12'17" Shpongle : The Sixth Revelation
Review:
WOOOOOW! What a awesome release! I would say one of,
and maybe the best release so far this year.
The tracks fits very well to each other but they are
so different anyway. Each one telling a little
bit about the mystery of the skulls. Together, the
mystery is solved. You know what I mean. There are no
bad tracks in this one. According to me the Doof track
is the "weakest" of them. But far away from bad I'm telling
you! The best track...hard to tell. I really like the Logic Bomb
track and ofcourse(?) the Shpongle track. This is the Shpongle i wanna
hear
There not much to say...It's a super-release.
All of you should get this one!

Review:
Starts out pretty good imo. Nice steady groovy beat in the first track
with well fit sounds. I don't really know what to compare this to.
So let's forget about it.
Track #2 is also groovy. I like this better then the first one. More
psychedelic with very nice sounds. Good production and all that.
The next track..hmmm...good percussion. Not so much sounds as in the
two previous tracks. But good anyway.
No more to say about that track. Track #4 is not so good as the others.
Quite booring, and doesn't really reach a top gear. To bad.
Track #5 is better. Steady beat and rythm. This one, as the other
tracks lacks of some kind of "break loose" somewhere in the track.
Track #6 is more in the "oldschool" direction. Constant synth sound ticking.
A little more melodic then the other tracks so far. But still a good track.
Even tho the production lacks a little. Track #7 is the worst so far.
Sounds very "empty" if you know what I mean. Oh well...Let's move one.
The next track (8) is faster and has a good end. It will for sure catch you.
Not that dark either, Wizzy use to be dark you know
But its a good trackindeed.
Track #9 and the last one is common to track #6. Kinda "choppy". But nice.
Ok. Enough!
Best track: Mindfield and Cosmosis - Psycho
Final verdict: 7.3/10

Why has nobody done this?
A christmas psy-track, that would be cool.
Some Jinglebells, nice "ho ho ho's" and vocals
Maybe a calm track like Silent Night or something. =)
I would love to here that!
So you artists out there, go make it :-)

Review:
This comp is "basic". Just pure goa/progressive/psy mix or what
you wanna call it. But it's nothing wrong with that. This fit
the dancefloor most imo. Some tracks are a little bit cheezy, but
not too cheezy. Every track has it's only little neat build-up.
But this is not good enough anyway...Gets very dull after a while.
Best track is Wizzy Noise - Error. Don't get this one. Or go get it.
But I shouldn't.
Rating: 6/10 because of Wizzy Noise who pulled up the point a little

Review:
I have done this review with no thoughts that they are not pros (all of them).
Of the artist would be Infected Mushroom it would get the same rating.
Which means I compare this to all the psytrance I have heard.
What else to do?
It might seems that I always has something to complain about.
oh well... :/
1-1 Review :Woha! The bas reminds me of Shiva Shidapu-bas. Harch and "snappy".
The track really catches me around 2:00 when some drums come in.
The break in the middle is enjoyable as the whole track. What to say
more? The psy-sounds is good and the sample fit in very good. Rating :
7/10
1-2 Review :hmm...Minimal has never impressed me. This guy seems
to know what he is doing though. But I'm not sure about it
Argh...I'll leave this track to the minimal dudes. Rating: 5/10
1-3 Review :This one is better. It's scando alright
With some hard dark bas and bassline, squeeking 'melodie'
and a little hi-hat on that. Sweet. To bad the squeek sound
starts to get annoying later in the track. A little variation
would be good. Rating : 7/10
1-4 Review :This could be early SFX stuff
The melodies are constantlycoming on and on and on. Anyway...The track never really
drags you away. Just a few times the tracks has a nice "mood". Rating :
6.8/10
1-5 Review :This is a hard and fast track. Belive me.
Many sounds in here and the melodie 5:00 really
freaks me out. Good! After the awesome melodie
the beats changes and...oh my God, it's so good.
I can't write more now
Rating : 7.8/101-6 Review :Ok, you can notice these guys done this before.
Maybe the best track so far. Melodic and sweet.
With a Alien Project - Electro bas. hehe...
Oh well...Too cheezy at sometimes for my taste. Rating : 7/10
1-7 Review :This track would be really great if it would be darker.
When the 'synth' sound is gone the track sounds very cool.
The effects put in when the melodie is off is good and fits
in perfectly. Make this track darker and it will gain a few points.
Rating 6.5/10
1-8 Review :Creepy indeed. Much echo/reverb or what it's called.
Maybe thats why the track gets "flooded" at some points.
The scary party is kinda good but...I better not. Rating : 4/10
2-1 Review :What a perfect name! This one throbbs very much.
This one is the more psychedelic of the tracks so far.
A little bit like GMS. iiih...The throbbing sound is
almost to throbbing for your ears
But this is goodanyway. I good suprise in the end of the track. I litte
melodie of some kind. Rating : 7.2/10
2-2 Review :Well choosed effects in this. This is more like Hux-Flux.
blipps and beeps. Which I like very much.
The track goes nowhere...and dissapears. *giggle* Rating : 7/10
2-3 Review :Man! This is even better than his other track.
Hard and dark with some blipps
A cool melodielurking in the background. This is the one! So far
that is. I really enjoy the 'high' tones in this one.
Creates a cool twist to the otherwise dark mood this track
has. Rating : 9/10
2-4 Review :It's getting better and better. Nice groovy beat.
Some effects. A melodie once in a while. Some drums/hi-hats/snares.
This equals a nice stompy track. Rating : 8/10
2-5 Review :Once again he delivers a hard and fast track. Very
weird drums and bas. Sound so floppy somehow. And then
he trows in an a short melodie perfectly. To bad the melodie
is layered under all the other sounds. He know how to create
a good melodie indeed. To bad he don't do it more often. Rating: 8.4/10
2-6 Review :Also a little SFX-spirit in this one. It's fullon all
the way. It's very good sometimes but the end is just
to much. A little break from the melodies would be nice I think. Rating :
6/10
2-7 Review :Isreali trance
Good one! Melodies yiihaa! This one is not so packed with sounds as most of
the others. Much more easy to 'follow'. Clean and crisp.
The melodies are never booring either. And the sampled used
is simply awesome. Very good one. Rating : 9/10
2-8 Review :Good nice groove in this one. Good work on the percussions.
And the 'long-bas'. da daaa..da. You get it?
The melodiesfits the rest of the track good. The typical swirling melodies
that goes upp and down. This works. Oh i forgot...Good start and ending
in this track. Rating 8/10
2-9 Review :Vocals? Womens voice. Wunderful! The slowest track of
them all. Sounds very proish
I can't spell proffecional This one just.....flowing peacfully. Rating : 7.4/10

Review:
Ok. So let us compare this to 'Scizoeffective'.
This is kinda the same style, maybe not THAT hard
and a little more minimalistic. The tracks are short
and dark. Did I have to tell you that?
This is not so experimental as Scizo is. There is minimal
all way to the last track that is same style as 'Dr Rayman'.
The tracks are similar to each other. There is a weird sound
that they use in almost every track. I can't really describe it.
Although, it's is really fun to play this loud. It's worth every penny just to
crank up the volume and feel it
Anyway...I'm not much of a minimal fan so the minimal-people out there
can add a point or so on the rating. Best tracks: 5, 6 and 11.

Oh man! This is some freaky weird stuff IMO.
It's like a weird mix of Deviant Electronics/Infected/Hux-Flux.
Alot of breakbeats, sound-effects and noises. Yeah, I said alot.
Some tracks are downtempo with some vocals and violins put in.
Really good IMO. The tracks are very different from each other.
many of you might have heard the track "Sense" but the other tracks
is far from that style. It's so experimental and strange. I never heard
so strange music before
And I like it very much indeed.I have no idea how to describe each track so i think I'll end it right here.
If you are up for music you never heard before this is "the one" to get.

Review:
I never heard any of these tracks before. And they are good.
It seems like this CD is ment for the floor. Very "stompy" and
crazy at certain points. Track 1 is typical Wizzy Noise, no news
hear, have you heard the Cybermancy-ablum you have heard this track.
The good part is 05:15 when a fat noise starts to grind down your brain,
then pause, then build up, full-on. Good one. Track 2 is not my cup of
tea. It's lacking of some kind of bassline or something. Sounds choppy.
Let's move on to track 3. This one is better. Nothing special tho. Just
nice
So much noises tearing you ears apart. Adds a scary twist in theend of the track to make you go faster.
Track 4: This one is good. I don't know how to describe it really.
This one is a bit different to the others so far. Much more psychedelic, not
as dark as Xenomorph and Wizzy Noise. I like this one very much indeed.
Track 5: It comes with a constant housy-sound-like-noise, I don't really
like this one. Nothing we haven't heard before. So let us move on
Track 6: This one suprised me. The guitar (GTR) in this track is one
of the better I heard. So clean in some way. Oh yes....
Very crazy in the end. Not only the guitarr whos working in this track.
Track 7 is also good. Psychedelic and pure. Could be a killer on the floor.
Not much melodies until the end and this one will for sure make you move
your feet off the ground. The melodie as constantly hanging around when
noises and sound-fx is put on top of that. The melodie stops, and the sound-fx
are on their on until the track ends. Good one.
Track 8: Is typical Absolum. Hard bassline..those beeps and bleeps, screams and
...something. In mittle their is a pause when you don't hear anything. And
suddenly
it all starts againg. The end is rough and hard. I wont spoil it for you
Track 9: hmm..what to say? Hard, rough sometimes. I think this is typical
psytrance
lol? oh well. I would recommand this CD for you AND your buddies.
Rating: 8/10

What to say?! This is a good way to get all those classic tracks. If you can't
get the original anymore.
As Deathposture said this is available at midprice world-wide. Ugly artwork but
good comp. Fav tracks are 1,4,6,7.
7/10 Bom!

Wow! This is excellent! Breakbeats at it best I guess :-)
I have never heard this kind of music before. It's seems
to be a mix between many styles. And I must say that the
mix came out GOOD! What a sound! The tracks on this CD is
very different to each other I think. Some of them are calm, ambient, with
piano and stuff
and others are fast and psychedelic with many freaksounds
. Useually when youhear a track
on a CD you have an idea of how the whole cd will sound like, but not on this
CD. You never know what you going to hear next. When you have played the CD,
it's impossible to not play again, again and again. Buy it!

Extraordinary track from the Mushies. The melodies are here, and ofcourse those
twisted sounds that jumps up and down. It would have been much better if the
different melodies been melted together, it's to obvious when a new melodie
comes in. However, the melodies are great just like the whole track. 8/10

Review:
Starts with a calm track to get you inside(?)
Some beats, some club, kinda nice flow tho.
The next track, Electro Panic, I've heard alot
of people talking about this track. The sample? or
the guy who says 'electro panic' is cool and good.
Good track over all, not typical Yahel cheese. The
next track is typical Yahel cheese, or should I call
it club? Anyway, no doubt the guy can make good melodies.
The fourth track is again not typical Yahel. Groovy track
with bongas and some hard lines. The next track takes us
back to the cheese. And this is just too cheesy for me.
Track 3 is much better cheese imo.
Next track; yet another more groovy track. It seems like
he jumps back and forth with cheese and not-cheese.
Track #7; Is in the more cheesey direction. You know the
Yahel-sound. The 8th track is bad. Slow, simple and technoish.
And the last track is better to not even talk about. So let us
not. It's bad I'm telling you. So...What does this CD get?
Final Verdict: 6.5/10
