agreed, aprooved!

give us specifics... let's get dirty laundry out! ps: Iboga should really be paying you to run advertisements for antix

Cityrain... the sample is from an old movie... didn't see the name... i found it in a really old program about movies... "cinemania 96"... there are loadssss of great samples there... you know greta garbo style... in psy or even progressive these days... who knows how that might work

hey kriss i found the sample you used in your song the other day and heard the whole thing... nice! reminds me a lot of Eye For An Eye, An - Sirus (Halo Varga mix) (V/a - Widescreen:16:9:V1 ) from Platipus... ahh man those were the days...

i wouln't place inner circle with everything else out there, they had a few spikes around the edges that i found most pleasing... personally, one of the better ones out there right now... as for changing or staying the same... i dunno, ill just knock on wood on hope for the best

but you can agree limelight does not sound the same as inner circle... does it?

and thus the world made Zenon and Tribal Vision records... and i just heard iboga is releasing a Sun Control Species album... i thought it was going out on ZMA... oh well

stabbing westward - shame

Global Communication - Pentamerous Metamorphosis i have it since... ughh... anyway... never fails me... good music just keeps on going

they... ahh.. *cough* shameless propaganda *cough* mention something about that here

Talk sick... Taaallkk-sic... took me a while to get it...

i was having a go at a dumb joke, but you are completly right it has also been a great year for techno: Boshke beats delivered, so did moonflower, i liked Horns n hoofs... cold groove isn't doing too bad. etc, etc...

well i for one agree with Ale here... worst year ever! it's all techno music these days!

nice one man if you teach him how to cue in the next few years when he's 12-13 he will be spinning in three decks... imagine the possibilities

you weren't the only who felt that way

http://ip23.dyn181.pacific.net.hk/23751.m3u 4 min sample... that probably helps a bit more than me rambling... http://www.saikosounds.com/english/display...ase.asp?id=4745

i say 2005 has been a very positive year with a lot of innovative music coming from all fronts, progressive, good ambient, a very slimy section of good full on, and dark/forest swung the doors wide open... taste is taste... is taste...

i got it cause i don't have the original and it was a nice adition... the bonus is strange piece of breakbeat, techno kind of a thing with some nice 303-ing...very experimental. Not sure if it's worth buying the whole cd cause of it though. but it it is kind of interesting... point being if your original copy is in shady condition, might as well get it... otherwsie why not spend your money on something completly new instead... my grain of salt on the matter

kids... what happened to strictly posting reviews and keeping these pages objective?

Artist: Derango Album: Tumult Label: Inpsyde Media Year: 2005 Format: CD 1. Deranged [147 BPM] 2. Confusion Is Next [148] 3. Made Out of Vapour [149] 4. Masterdamnit [150] 5. All Channels Open [148] 6. The Poisonous Square [148] 7. Lost Theory [148] 8. Fnatt [146] 9. We're All Mad Here (Rmx) [145] What's this about At the end of the day the Eriksson boys are just a bunch of romantics. Literally, the whole idea of let's get back to nature... in a radioactive-green, cold and mossy forest, lost somewhere in Sweden. The great majority of the sane world might not call it an ideal vacation spot. In retrospect, they popped my third eye out! The album is tall-glass of effects and samples spilling out synth's with a degree of alchemy. An aural overload with all the finesse of a blind hairdresser equipped with a broad-sword. The simplest breakdown I can give you: accompaniment for a really shibby dew, descending down the rabbit-hole by the tree. Per-song break-down 1. Deranged * Deranged is a month's worth of shock-treat packed in 9 minutes. The only thing that makes sense here is the twisted-short pads lifting off into unknown directions. It stars slow with a nice set of stick and drum action, running through Halloween-time tonal adventures. It Kindly takes your hand through the journey of mirrors past the point of no return. 2. Confusion Is Next * Serious chin rubbing stupefaction of striking mystique. Infinitely lost in eight minutes of baffling lines, rumbling, bubbling and whirling on top of a very chaotic panorama. Loaded with all the goodness necessary to startle even the most experienced travelers. Dancing or pondering you will find yourself most entertained. 3. Made Out of Vapour You are made out of vapor mostly… never… so this is obviously a very abstract concept. Bee's and exhalations jiggle the speakers escorting the vapour samples from left to right. Rhythms change constantly through an equally transient shrilling of liquefied effects and gated melodies announcing, its sudden demise. 4. Masterdamnit * Besides having the coolest name ever, the mega curse is lovingly dedicated to the merry-prankster for spiking your drink... god knows how long ago. The bell-hook by the start is great, hinting a steady builder with all the craftmanship they have shown in the past. It's not only the bass gaining speed, but the surroundings progressing through waves of hypnotism escalating in intensity, unfolding like a rug that gets thicker by the yard. An overflow of fractal textures, unsound and tasty by all measures, especially by the end. 5. All Channels Open * The fifth chapter is oddly enough a quick return to more wispy melodic teases, chanting bits and galloping pounders, before it dissolves in your ears. The pace slows down a bit by the mid section, reaching new peaks of random tonal abstractions. 6. The Poisonous Square * The kick does a crescendo in a thick layer of reverbs, as the voices are consumed in effects before it gets going. Once it does everything is delayed in fizzy chirps of sonic mist, clouding the speakers with haunting melodies. It hooks carrying through all the eeriness of the green forest, in the front-cover of the album. It's great, makes me feel all warm inside... 7. Lost Theory Besides a beat it's mostly bells, bird chirps, and the other million-and-one layers of interaction, crammed together like sardines in a can. Languidly twisting and bouncing in its own juice, shaking their tails to the metal-tin surface... trying to escape from the hole they got themselves into. 8. Fnatt * The beat is paced with that unhinged groove factor swelling in the kicks, amongst the virtuoso dissonance, that personally sets them apart from the rest. There is a higher portion of pads with a very unique Derango quality like is the norm here. Bubbling squelches reach higher proportions. It takes a few sharp woobly edge's but it carries through. 9. We're All Mad Here (Rmx)* The drumalism returns with those slinky grooves I enjoy so much… slower, paced and well trippy. The ability for tuning and piling artifices that zoom, quack, bubble, splat, slam, sputter and Derango knows what else... flows down in random order reaching magnanimous proportions. It seems there is a method to their madness. They got the idea in previous tracks balancing the crazy factor and it works on this one. * Favourites.* All and all As far as i'm concerned they delivered the goods. I don't think two tracks sound alike here and its clear the boys have cooked up their very own unique style, but I beleive the progression of their sound has not reached the peak yet. Confidence is high. Overall this is in deed a Tumult of electric forest, Jens and Ola decided to pile on nine tracks to redefine the concept of dementia. All music has its place and time, so if you're having trouble placing Derango in your schedule, is best to simply let it go. If you have grown tired of everything else and yearn for a beating, tune in your psychelic intuition because it gets wild. If these qualities bring a smile to your face instead of the cringes, then welcome home… Where to Get: http://www.beatspace.com/dettagli/dettaglio.asp?id=2100 http://www.saikosounds.com/english/display...ase.asp?id=4567 http://www.wirikuta.at/web66/product_detai...howDetail=85855 * ( I tried the more than one * per song, but it dosen't really look consistent with previous reviews, and i don't really feel like going back and revising them, so i'm giving up the idea... ) http://sonic-energy.net
