Yeah definatly in the final stages now thanks to F & V I jumped in to late for this compilation but i'll try to manage the sendout on this release. Im looking around to find 1 gbit line and a few 10/100 mbits (incase of emergency) so that everyone can leech this fast. I think as soon as that is done there wont be much work to get the compilation out. Im glad ppl are already enjoying this compilation cuz i cant stop lisstening to it =) See you soon again

Man either someone with his technique was in sweden or it was him cuz i've seen that being made on the streets =) Pretty cool yeah

Man u got some really nice stuff in there. Im not a fan of everything but i love the simple black lines. Have you made this with flash or ? =) What programs are involved =) ?

Only thing that anyoes me is that you split the songs to often, u pull the volume down sometimes like 5 seconds inbetween so its hard to see & hear the whole contiens. Its like lisstening to 5 sec samples from a VA album and have to be the judge of that if its good or not. Where you havent done "misstakes" like that it sounds pretty ok, semes like you have much stuff to work with and we will have to wait and see what you can pull out of that =) You variate your style pretty much and dont only put focus on one type of goa and thats good. About jacking i think there is a song in there, to bad one cant see the time when playing on acidplanet, that sounds pretty much exactly as Filipes song but we wont get into that again =) You say you dont jack so that meens your doing a good job atleast =) When do you plan to put the promo out ?

Indeed in hard times only love can save us and sometimes the gods look down on us but its actualy the fractals thats doing the works Peace & Love!

I must say VERY nice tunes you have in there. The chillout is mindblowing! Calm, relaxive yet drifty that will make your head swing like a shpongle Very good work! I hope you find some ambient label to take you on because this is VERY professional! Good luck with the project!

Anoebis: well written, you changed my mind about you and what i've heard. I love a person that can litterarly put some effort in what hes posting and put his mind to get it there. The thing that got me ticked, honestly, is that i know there are so many good goa artists around on the net thats still unreleased and that you take on someone that isnt clearly as near developed as the rest. That and the part that i recognized many loops from Filipes songs and having him also stating that ment in my mind that something was wrong. Maby i got ticked to early maby not, now i hear them saying nothing is stolen but still amazes me how they got the line. Maby this will be their praise since if they can make loops like Filipe they are on the right path. But on the other hand its wrong of me to tick of like i did, im not gonna blame the alcohol or the unwillingly injested drugs into my body but your right. I shouldnt care much about what you do with your label and how you do it, since now i see you have more experience than me in that field. We are all on the same path but we do it with our own personal style. Jeremy: Honestly i dont like your music, but as i stated to Anoebis, if your not stealing the music you are in the right path with some things. So im not praising nor will i continue to flame you two. If suntrip thinks your going to blast minds on their compilation im looking forward to see what that will be. About the part where u ask why i dont produce i can tell you the why. I have no time to sit all day and try to get something to work. I work as a security guard, graphics artist, i help out friends with gfx, promotion, irl bussnises, i work with boats, new project now is to start a cafe, i arrange parties and on the side i help with my crews label, im trying (or have had atleast 1 gig) to be a VJ and so on and so on. The list is long and part of that is that i hardly have no life so you can see why i dont have time to sit with music. Once in my life i put my priorites on graphics insted of music, thats where it turned bad for me =) Bobby: I guess you're the Bulgarian part in the project, so Zdravei i Nazdrave Im Bulgarian myself and you must be one lucky guy (just like myself) to be in the US of A and producing goa. But your right, many things ticked me off and as you say its pretty wrong to get ticked off on only 2 samples. But what i heard reasembled another artist and having him also stating the same things that went in my mind made 1 +1 = -4 =) So in general, im sorry for my injection in this topic, guess i got ticked of a little bit to easy. Sorry if i offended you all, it wasnt what i was trying to achive. I had (and i still think i have em) good thoughts in mind but i played them out very badly in words. Shit happenes and i will take the blame for it. Good luck with your project and i hope we will all come to like the music you produce. As i said earlier i didnt like what Filteria was producing on his album, but when i heard it live, it was like heaven =) So again, sorry and i'll try to behave a little better next time =) As you say, the scene for us is so small and there is no need for it to become smaller just cuz of personal injections from the dark side.

Why shall i wait when the truth is already blasting me in the eyes ? I've heard two songs now that both reasembles an artist we both lissten to. Even if they exactly copied his style they do it with NO finess. They dont add anything just the simple blip-blop thats withouth a soul. Claps that are used on keyboards you buy for 5 dollars on ebay and tunes that go over and over and over and over again, repetative is not the way to goa. The way to goa is change, change the old into something new with the roots where it belongs, and thats not a 5 dollar keyboard with claps. Layers that take your mind above space and beyond but still keeps your soul on mother earth. Goa for me is a trip without taking drugs and to achive that takes A LOT of dedication, style and creative thinking. This is nothing that these americans do, im sorry harsh or hash i dont care its the truth. And about you know what my reply is all about please explain it. I've smashed and spitted on Jannis because of his stressy goa style but when i had my Goaway party in sweden and he played his songs live for me, it twisted my mind into orbit. My reply was based on the crap these american guys produce and you taking them onto the label WHEN!!! there are SO many talented artists out there that KNOWS what the hell they are playing with. And still they are unreleased and many are searching for labels to belong to and insted of puting yourself and your comrades on suntrip on a 10h google and search frenzie about new talents you pick what comes to you, atleast thats how i see it. So you can understand why im ticked of the edge a little when there are gold coins on the ground infront of you and you dont bend down to take them and keep them. But this might be a good thing, since its your label its your name its your rep and your blasting away on that. This actually opens the doors for other labels, net or distributed labels to pick these guys out but as you know there arent many goa labels around anymore. Nor is it easy to find a good distributor like Wirikuta that will help you with the record. But im sure soon when ppl open up their eyes and get tired of all this darkpsy era on 165+ bpm some will turn over to the happy and loving side. Maby even form a new label where artists are welcome and where artists are looked for. So my friend its a bit of a split pie, you eat that burned out end and the rest of us will share on the juicy creamy end and the changes will come soon, very soon i hope Now its time for me, release party for VA - Blah (hypnotica records) and i have to help my crew out. Stay safe but remember not to lock yourself in there... EDiT: mR.Anoebis, no one has hacked my account, now its confirmed with Jannis to so you know this is the real baba sri guru oCtodur talking to you. I have no intensions to take this on PM since we are both discussing a VERY serious topic and we are not offtopick...yet atleast. When we go off topic feel free to PM me as much as you want. I like open source discussions where people can state their minds and where they have to STAND for what they say and think...

yeah very undeveloped music is what this REALY is claps and shit, second long brakes where there shouldnt be breaks psychedelic layers that are ripped of and sampled and then put into acid the same music going on for seconds if not minutes without developing into some nice lady with her tits down to the neck i fail to see any talent into this, its to dumb, to american and im sorry to say so AMAZINGLY undeveloped even though you are stealing lines from other artists you still do not manage to put 1+1 into 2 insted u do it 1+1 = -1. Atleast have the decency to develop some layers, there are many things that are important in goa and that is to let it take your mind and body for a journey. With one layer and two claps you sounds like kidds crying their ass of cuz you havent gotten any saturday candy. The sadest part is that suntrip is taking this on, with artists like filteria, ka sol, buddha, kethzal and now bring this crap into the label. Anoebis you shouldnt be that hungry for new artists and insted take care of those you have on the label. Let these kids make their own loops insted of sampling it from the rest and maby push them so they will develop their own style. This aint kicking my goa brain and belive me goa has been my LIFE so i know what the hell im saying. I wouldnt release this even if they paid me in gold money EDiT : Btw i forgot to mention, where the hell is the fealing that makes your skin shiver for shiva, the unbraking lines that goes in your left ear and exits trough your whole body? Goa music makes my soul shiver for the gods but it takes talent to take you places like that...

You have some more tracks on: http://bulgaria2005.net/poll/poll.php Deepdrone: Zdrasti ti chte hodish li na Mati Zemlya ?

Hello Filipe! Im glad to hear this and i hope you are back on track anytime now! Honestly i miss the times on msn with you, now i have much less inspiration than i had before when we talked. So i hope soon enough you will have time for the online life and the music tracking =) Im looking forward to what more you can supprise the audience with since we played your old tracks on our Goaway 2005 party in Sweden people went CRAZY! Atleast i've made some more fans for you here in Sweden, its time for a GOATION here to!! =) Take care my friend and i hope to hear from you soon, btw i bought the Apsara yesterday and im waiting egerless for it now =))

Finaly! I got my hands on Apsara (and the new Shpongle =) and i downloaded the rip so i can hear the music because i dont have the patience to wait for the package. All i can say now is i love the modifications u did Filipe, small but i love them, made the song more energetic! This is indeed a VERY VERY nice compilation and i for sure hope there will be more from you guys! Also i must say that i wasnt a big Filteria fan, but after our Goaway 2005 party here in Sweden last saturday, where he made a AMAZING live preformance i've started to see what Janis can make with the tunes. I can say that no one! and i meen NO ONE could sit when he preformed his tracks. And im glad to see that one of the songs is on this release, brings back good memories. Also my mate and I tried a few of Filipes old songs on the party and the people there went CRAZY! Its good to see that many that havent heard him did it now. After we preformed a few songs people asked me what it was we played. Now i have a gang of people asking me for Filipes songs and can it get better !? I think not! I've had 2 persons already buying the Apsara cd to get their hands on the tunes The audience in Sweden are finaly opening their eyes on Goa insted of the crapiest fullon and proggressive stuff they are so focused on.

As i told you before my dear friend, this track is a great example on how you have developed some very nice skills. As you know i still lissten to you old stuff like Acid Mountain =) and just seeing that development is really great. Im glad that you have found your ways around and i for sure cant wait to hear more from you =) Keep it up! EDiT: A little notation about the post about FL and Reason not being good enough to produce music that you needed more than just those two programs. Is this prof enough for you that its not the software but the man behind it that matters?

On that party i started like this: 01 - Jaïa - Sommeil Paradoxal 02 - Eco - tunnel vision 03 - Shakta and moonweed - micronesia Atleast that what i think i started with, i've lost my mix but i have a early version of it and those are the tracks in it.

Well you asked in another topic what songs we start with, the goa set that took me 2 months to compile i started with SOMMEIL PARADOXAL. To prepare the ppl for their trance, there is really nothing that can beat that track for that purpose. And yes this album is definitly one of the outstanding once in our time.

For me the start is probably the most important preface, atleast when i play goa out on parties. It all depends on what mood you are and what you want to say with the music. Its not just like hey i pick that track and shoot it, atleast not for me. Last time i did a goa set it took me around 2 months to get a short 1h set online (yes i know this is very little play time for a goa set but still). I sometimes feel like opening a party/set with indian chants and drums, or just some nice ambient song that i later mix in with the intro of the goa song. I dont see myself as a good dj, but i know that ppl like what i play =) So it all depends on what time u get to play, what kind of party it is, man it depends on a LOT of stuff in my case hehe.
