hi ukiro,
can i get some of your mix cd/tapes, maybe? btw, the track 'if i' is one of those rare techno tracks that even some of my redneck rock-and-roll buddies like - nice metal energy.

never was big fan of 'dr lex.', but 'outland' is stuck in my mind. you've got the koranic chant (the arabic chant, i'm guessing), MLK Jr speech, and the mesmerizing, repetitive melody - very trippy.
condolence and god-speed recovery to the peoples of southern asia.

really? slight mixup in chronology.
this is odd, i thought 'trance express' was lousy cuz i have gotten that after 'tribes of the moon', which i think is amazing. i'm looking at 'tribes...' now and can't tell when it was released (or when i've got it), but this one doesn't have borges-lunde credited. i had thought all along that it was borges-lunde who put the melodic touch in d5, but i'm wrong on that, too.
so... nevermind (all that i wrote on these guys)...
-
nah, i've got it all wrong. i dug thru my bins and found 12" that i was refering to, 'trancefix'/'trance express' on d5 label. i thought there was more, but don't see any here. this is a release without borges-lunde, but i think it's actually released earlier than second phase. my bad.
-
can someone list versions of this tunes released? this one melts me. aptly named.
true, climaxes are more the specialty of anthemic styles.

jesus, seraph is like encyclopedia on tunes.
i've got to hear the guy behind RA first as dimension 5 (with some other guys) when they were releasing stuff on blue moon production label. don't know if he released stuff before that. blue moon went under (guess the thailand venture didn't turn out too viable - i think many psy labels experienced financial difficulty around '01), and i've got one or two later releases of dimension 5 after the RA guy (sorry, can't remember the name) left the team - it's pure crap, i'm afraid.
only ra album i have is 'sirius', which is quite good and melodic (some of the samples sound bit amateurish, though). if you like that, try to get your hands on some d5 albums - there were two i think, can't remember their names - gotta get off the damn booze. oh, 'tribes of the moon' is quite good. somehow it reminds me of 'rave alarm' from back when.
-
the tracks in general sounds pretty dated, but the big hits (papua new guinea, expander, moscow) still sound pretty good to me, though this may be due to nostalgia - that's why i requested the review
as the review says, this isn't quite the timeless classics like their later, ambient releases, but still interesting buy - gives you a sense of the sound back in early '90 - it was the time when the techno/acid house sound and warehouse parties took off (in the u.s.).
-
yes, play a fast psytrance with dirty and strong baseline, recorded for 45rpm, drop it down to 33 - it's pretty hipnotic. i think dutch folks called it "new beat" in early '90s...?I don't know why, but i think most of you just say their fav. ambient artist. Yea it's not bad, but i mean most of all music for relaxation after strong party. For me it's not everytime pure ambient sometimes i relax with Transwave or Astral projection maybe it sound strange, but when you play with slow bass this flying melody can realy hipnotize you

what you said. although i wouldn't drop acid listneing to this stuff, though.
-
as in anything social, it's a peer pressure thing, hardened with necessity for money. you know, if everyone around you are robots, you start wondering if robots are the humans.
'yuppy' (to me) means type of value system (like you wrote), but the reason i said i became one is because i now run like that dude that woke me up.
btw, their earlier (faster) tracks 'papua new guinea' and 'expander' still sound pretty damn good, after all these years. wanna put up a review for those?

FSOL - ISDN
in 1995
they should have released extended version of 'slider'. the baseline on that one is just... don't have the word for it. 'not bad for human,' indeed.
-
i remember blasting this off my car, while dozing off the roof of the car at a park on the riverbank in philly - i was supposed to be studying for final. some yuppy dude who was jogging actually woke me up to ask what the name of the tunes were. that was a decade ago, and now i have become that 'yuppy dude'.
great tunes.

i saw him in his "live" gig a while back in a club here. i went thru different areas of the floor to find a good sonic spot - no use. it's all "boom-chi-boom-chi-boom-chi..." all thruout the set. what melody?!
-
come to think of it, he also put out more abstract, detroit techno like stuff also, didn't he. those are pretty different beast altogehter, i guess.
i never heard 'THE HIVE' - better chase it down.
-
thanx for the pointer. i have some old (around '94-7?) LSG releases, but nothing recent though.Hehe, Dasa, this guy has as many Aliases as I have 1 cent coins, MANY! Check out his LSG stuff, which the last release was released in 2002 if I am not wrong. Its called The Hive. (Superstition).
I know he made something with Pink Floyd as well, but I am not sure if that is available, or if its any good. I havent heard it
But check him out on Discogs, thats your best bet to get all the records
-
seraph, you seem to be going thru your old record bins - i like your selection of tunes. this one indeed is a beautiful work. i'd say oliver lieb is THE best trance producer (i came across). has he released anything recently? last one i've got of his work is the remake of hallucinogen's lsd.
i also have 12" of 'we got spice' - it has a housy version and a trancy (melodic and faster, but not goa) version. also a good release.
-
montauk p - if i
this has got electric bass guitar line and the dark enegy of heavy metal sound. i should remember other tunes with acoustic guitar to effect mellow feel, but they escapes me.

1) What's happened to Pete Martin?
I believe that he is the "Master of Psy-Trance"!!!
His Slide tracks were UNBELIEVABLES!!! The Unstable album is the best Dark Psy album ever!! And the UX tracks...Oh My GOD!!!
So, what's happened to him? I think he create a label together with Cass called Fire records more proggy and housey. Am I wrong?
i remember his later releases (around 2000) sounded more "progressive" (i hate these terms, but you know), more linear and housy. have some cass & slide stuff which sounds pretty good, but nothing like the UX stuff. i also think the crazy, industrial sound of UX is bit more SUN (forgot his name) than slide. anyhow, more UX-like releases would be great.
-
i remember most tunes by their baselines (so i can't tell squat which one's which ;-), but one shoots up in my mind:
x-dream: coming soon (at the beginning)
a beautiful beatbreak buster.

geeze, i don't know any of the guys you listed, but check out some old synchro - if it's the funky beats/drum programming you're interested. "funk" means (to me) either the crazy guitar work or jumpy breakbeat.
-
AP - people can fly.
Many other tunes've got great build-up/breakdown, but this one just stuck in my mind. It's as if the whole universe stops when David Ducovny (sp?) starts yepping "when you dream" I think this is the same reason so many peeps remember this tune.
-
hey cinos,
maybe that's why - trying hard. put the record (mystical) on, light one up, and just sit back (or do things you need to get on with). it's not a tune that grabs you by ball and shakes you upside down. it's more a tune that sorta envelops you subtly (ambient/chill, you know). like other posts here, it's one of those rare piece of music that i never get tired of after all these years - i'll put it right up there with KLF chillout.

many of these tracks i never even heard of.
i bet there are many djs here (or those who cook up mixes but don't go about doing gigs). why don't some of yous who's got skills to put the sets together. i'd love to listen how they come out.
it'd be nice if peeps can share their effect gears across the net, wouldn't it...
great thread, btw.
