    Synchro - Drugs

    Synchro - Drugs Artist: Synchro Title: Drugs Label: Liquid Audio Soundz Date: 2000 Track listing: 01. 06'43" Next Stop Oblivion(Y2K Mix) 02. 06'30" Drugs (Hard) 03. 07'41" Fowhunt (Gonzo) 04. 07'08" Coca Coma (Rock) 05. 06'23" Cyborg 06. 05'32" Drugs (Soft) 07. 05'44" F Buckets 08. 06'09" Coca Coma (Chrystal) 09. 07'39" Alcoholiday 10. 07'27" Foxhunt (Us Uk) Review: Contrary to many of you, I didn't like the Synchro style before. Now I like it! Briefly, all the tracks belong to a groovy line of style, very clear, with simple and efficient sounds. No full-psy style here. Sometimes you remind of the former album, but this is different in some ways. It's simple, and THE feeling is there. The goods sounds are always in the good places at the good time. A really good trip in your mind. Well well well. What else to say? Buy And listen. My favourites: 1,2,3,6,7 PS: At the first sight of the tracklisting, you could say: "what? 3 tracks are doubled?". Yes, they are but it's worth it. when a track has 2 versions, you really have 2 feelings expressed, and each remains accessible to the sofa or to the dancefloor. It's an interesting research. Those are definitely NOT remixes "to fill-in the CD". mmmh. good: 7/10

    Etnica - Alien Protein

    I love this album. When i bought it in 1996 while Etnica wasnt as known as nowadays, it came as a revelation to me. Every track is worth it. Definitely a timeless state of the art album. The only drawback is that it's hard to find now. My favourite: Starship 101. Rating: 9/10
  3. Exactly the same as I-Max...
  4. V/A - Order Odonata 4 Artist: Various Title: Order Odonata 4 Label: Dragonfly Date: 2000 Track listing: 01. 06'17" Luminaire : Duet Dub (Way Out West Rmx) 02. 07'36" Purple : Cascades 03. 05'51" Genetic : Electric Showdown 04. 08'56" Bus : Section 8 05. 08'06" Lotus Blue : Psychedelic Rock'n Roll (X-Dream Rmx) 06. 07'24" Semsis : Sound Vandal (Rmx) 07. 08'20" Noma : Tube 08. 07'12" Yumade : Das Hume 09. 08'16" Excession : Pulsar Review: This is obviously what Dragonfly calls their best tracks. Indeed, they are new, innovative, good grooves. the only issue is that there is not a unity on this compilation. the begining is -quite- melodic, while the end is really monotonic-bom-bom-bom-bom-... Please notice the trancey trippy dancing ambiance created by the tracks 1 (Luminaire),2 (Purple),5 (Lotus Blue with X Dream) The ways developped by Bus with section 8 (trk4) and THE remix of Sound Vandal by Semsis (trk 6) are excellent, to my mind. A good compil for those who like to listen to psytrance on their nailboard and then put some salt on theit cuts. 7/10

    Luminus - Hypnotica

    Luminus - Hypnotica Artist: Luminus Title: Hypnotica Label: HOM-Mega Date: 2000 Track listing: 01. 02'17" Intro Active 02. 08'05" Hypnotica 03. 08'55" Anything Can Happen 04. 08'09" Total Consciousness 05. 07'06" End Of Space 06. 07'53" Sub Sonic System 07. 07'44" Diablo 08. 07'38" The Test 09. 06'42" One Step To The Moon Review: Amir Dvir is back! your opinion about Luminus wont change here. Those who loved the first album will love this one, those who hated the first will hate the second. the name Hypnotica is quite representative of the tracks themselves: many nice twisted hypnotic energetic repetitive mental melodies with a fast beat (nksssbom nksssbom nksssbom....). The Hommega site, comparing with the jouney into your Dreams states: "minus the cheese"...well not exactly as there are remainings of the cheese, but this is a good work. My opinion is just that this album should have been worked on just a little more. Globally the tracks are good, two of them had already been released (4:Total Conciousness, 7:Diablo), my favourites are nr: 2 (Feat Passenger as it just sounds like Passenger..), 4, 5, 7, 8. This is a special album, not really psytrance, not really pzatzot, something different. The only problem is that you are fed up with listening to it after a few times, so only 6/10
  6. Yahel - For The People Artist: Yahel Title: For The People Label: Shiva Space Technology Date: 2000 Track listing: 01. 07'51" For The People 02. 07'38" Cosmic Waves 03. 09'09" Snap 04. 08'06" Flash 05. 08'11" La Esperansa 06. 09'26" ITN 07. 07'12" Angel Jonathan 08. 06'48" Rave 2000 09. 07'39" Bizarre Contact Review: This is a good debut album, full of nice melodies, not boring, something on the cutting edge, i think. Sometimes tracks are a bit like Luminus' ones (Max is going to kill me) , but you can feel something beyond this, less cheesy. each track has some kind of charm... I especially like tracks nr 1,2,4,6,7 Special distinction to the Angel Johnatan (trk.7) composed with Erez Mushroom & Jorg SST, which is very inventive (bagpipes rules!) 7/10
  7. On a party last week-end I met Erez, and when he asked me if this new album was good to my mind, I just joined my hands, as if i was praying... subtitle: outstanding mind-blowing album - the hand of God!!!!!!!!!! 11/10
