This ambient project is the best comp I've ever heard ! In each track, you can
hear and feel the story that Raja&co are trying to tell !!! Track n°1, by
Process is here my favourite. This track is very very slow, far away from
Shpongle tunes, the whole thing is incredibly good, relaxing, good for
chilling. Listen to that fantastic flutes at 14'00, so good 9.5/10!! Track
n°2, by Hallucinogen himself is also very good. The intro, in which Simon
tells the Yeti's story is wonderful ! The rest is of course as stunning, but
the rythm on this one is faster than Process's track. 9/10 Track n°3, by Total
Eclipse, is a bit less good, but by the way, it's still gret. I love flutes,
with a fast trance rythm near 9'20 !! 8.5/10 Track n°4, by Doof, is too
minimalistic for me, nothing really happens in it, but obviously it's not bad.
7/10. So, if you can find it, go and buy this jewel immediatly !!

Agree with you guys, that's a good comp. Best tracks are #4 ( except the vocals
), #7 and especially #10. I didn't expect celtic croos to be so good !! But
there are bad tracks on it, #5 ( I really hate the muses rapt, though this one
is far to be its worst track ) and #9. But anyway, it is an interesting, and
worth buying. 8/10

An average comp !! #4, Horrorgram is excellent, one of my fav simon's track.
#5, #6 and #9 are also pretty good. But there are pure shit, Pathfinder is
disgusting and bad lieutenant and bug are so annoying :-( !!! On the whole :
4.5/10

No shit on this CD, only pure melodic tracks. #1 is well-known, no need to
review it but excellent !! #2 by Miranda is quite good, classic but enjoyable
!! #3 is not very good, I hate these french vocals. In fact, it's from the
movie "C'est arrivé près de chez vous" avec Benoit Poelvoorde, but anyway, it
doesn't fit in this track. #4 gamma goblins, very good, but less than the Part
2 on the lone deranger. #5 is ok, melodic and so on... #6 is one of my
favourites here, such a good track. Listening at the melody that comes at 3'10
makes me shiver !! #7 is a short remix of jack in the box, by MWNN,
uninteresting I think. #8 is great, nothing to add. #9 is also from transwave.
And I love that track, the bassline is so special dunno why, but... wonderful.
excellent track by the way and finally #10, only average not really
interesting. So on the whole, it is a very taste of pure goa trance, for those
who missed the golden days of psytrance !!!! Nevertheless, the cover is
absolutely awful, bahh, disgusting, but doesn't matter !! 9/10

An average comp. Synchro is as usual pure shit. Bad tracks are 2,5,6,8,9. But
there are two very good tracks, Karma (fantastic melody at 3'30 ) and
obviously soothsayer by Simon Posford !!! Doof's track is also quite good !
6/10

I think it is a quite good comp. Best songs are 1,5,7,8 ( transwave at its best
) and 9. Bad track is n°2. I won't say anything about X-Dream, I don't like
their style, so I don't like that song. I agree with the guy above, Xoco is
fantastic, powerful oldschool melodies in it, soo good !! 7/10 for this CD.

I bought this comp only for Hallucinogen's track and I'm not deceived !!!
Mi-Loony-um is soo excellent, at the beginning I didn't like it at all, and
now I have understood this very spcial track and I love it !!! Beautiful
People is also quite good !
But hey, the rest is pure shit. The DMT remix is worse than the original,
Trickstar and Prometheus soo annoying, Doof's Chemical Energy crap, Tristan's
one seems to be an industrial-trash-80's-techno shit !!! Younger Brother is
above the average though !
Buy this comp only for Simon's work. 9/10 for track 1 and 4/10 for the whole CD.

Review:
I really think Brainfood is better than Classical Mushroom !!! I hate
Classical... and Brainfood is quite bad :-) Seriously, these songs are
psychedelic, ok, but too repetitive !!! If you listen to first minute of the
track, you've better skip it, since it's the same during the 5 minutes left.
Samples are also very cheesy !
Almost all the songs are bad and uninteresting, nevertheless Another Universe
is average. 2.5'10

Absolum's revelation is pure crap (hate his style ), but the rest is very good.
Usually, I don't like Logic Bomb's stuff that much, but his 3rd Revelation is
stunning !! GMS+1300 Mics is also incredible. And this comp finishes by one of
the best Simon tunes : the 6th Revelation, a taste of ambient and new
Hallucinogenic style, perfect. On the whol, one of the best comp I've ever
bought.
