    Your biggest surprise this year?

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    E-mantra on Freqs of Nature... Definitely biggest surprise of the year. His new album is going to be a shocker! E-mantra live has always been difficult, not much going on the dance floor (@Joske, I wasn't at the Fractal Gate live, had to mix myself) but this time when his new music started playing, the dance floor was very magical...

     

    Loke on Midgard, full power forest madnes, totally loved it!

    True, different he was, and the way he was playing, fully concentrated on the music (sober!! as he woke up 20 min before his set, and he denied alcohol and joints during his set) was cool too... But the music... Too far for me... Sorry Robbert! :) I can only hope his set on Freqs was different! :) because during his set on LT I was thinking: this is not the music I fell in love with 15 years ago...

     

    And hey, don't worry, this is about taste :)

     

    @ Robbert: LT was great, far better then last year... Ask Proet ;) Highlights: Goch, some forest djs, Derango, Procs, Ocelot, the old school night of course (altough Darshan was bad and Psychaos mediocre) and for some weird reason Ephedrix got me into his music surprisingly well! :) D5 was superb as well, playing around 9, more Second Phaze like stuff... :)

     

    Yes, I just want to see you dance on some dark madness for once... It is a totally different vibe while dancing, more of a "I am loosing my mind, but it is good because I am letting go of everything" idea. Oldschool would be more of "Total trance bliss, letting go of everything thingy". I hope you get my drift ;)

     

    Too bad of Psychaos, last time in Belgium he was superb.

     

    ON TOPIC: What were we talking about? :P Does Crossing Mind not have more live elements? What is he using?

    It's a matter of taste I guess... it were the 2 most terrible musical hours of my life... I was stage manager during his set so I had to listen to it... But it was thé hell for me... I still can't understand what that music has to do to with psy/goa trance... Really :)

     

    On topic; most mix a set indeed in ableton live and press play, that simple :)

     

    Ah come on Jos! Hell? You are getting old! Even I enjoyed him at Freqs of Nature... Just try to have a different mindset at a set like that. There was actually some really good pieces in his set, beautiful sounds while the bass is 190 BPM.

     

    OT at Jos: How the *beeep* was Lost Theory??

    Crossing Mind - Inner Shift (SUNCD25)

    in 2012

    Posted

    Almost a month passed by and nobody on this forum took the time to review Suntrip Records latest, released 20 april 2012:

     

    Crossing Mind - Innershift

     

    It is a shame, because damn, this album is god! This is one of the things I search in Goa Trance! I'm not going to do a track by track review yet, my advice is to listen to it in one go.

    1. The Unenlightened Perspectives 09:10

    2. Solarium 09:09

    3. Modulated Self Reminders 09:27

    4. Magnetic Fields of Life 08:46

    5. Elastic Harmonies 09:49

    6. No Way Wrong (2011 rmx) 09:20

    7. Plutonia 09:27

    8. Optronic Circles (Inner Shift mix) 08:13

     

     

    All these songs have a wonderful story to tell. Each song starts of slow and before you know it you find yourself in psychotic melody trance heaven. Stephane always seems to take you on journey where you close your eyes, shut your mouth, dance until your feet bleed, your mind is cleared and then filled with all kind of emotions. The only thing that counts is floating in this infinite space of love and letting every note and sound tickle your body, mind and soul. It should be said that Inner Shift is less psychotic and direct then The Holograffic Paradigm. Inner shift has a more subtle deep feel about it. The best track is of course Elastic Harmonies (mod 2). When I first heard this song on his soundcloud, it dropped like a bomb... And it still does... It makes me want to go crazy in a happy way! ;)

     

    So far my feelings about this album. Highly recommended!

    Yeah saw it. I just find it a bit odd just like with E-mantra that there's already a second album coming.

     

    Odd? The first album was old music from around 2000, therefore released by DAT. After that he started to produce music again and showcased quite a lot of new tracks on his soundcloud. I think it is logical...

     

    I'm really looking forward to listen to this album! I've been waiting for it for around half a year!
