  1. Hm... I just want to have another test concerning Four Carry Nuts "Mechanical age". On the backside of the CD there's only a number: 005230451, and nothing else. If the print on the CD was better quality I wouldn't doubt, but... Is everything OK with my copy?

  2. Shiva Chandra - Spicy Moments

    Not the best album ever, but considering its "shiny/ positive" melodical concept I would give it 5/5. I like the harmonics occuring on this album when one track is passing to the next one. The album is worse listening as a whole only, not by single tracks.

     

    Ubar Tmar - Macrometasomakosmos

    That's the killer concept! Just check the description at http://www.discogs.com/release/238294.

  3. Juno Reactor - guardian angel - probably, one of the greatest intro's ever!

    Miko & Har-El - alala - the intro is much more promising than the track itself

    Etnica - microdrive - woah, those deep basses! =)

    Green Nuns Of The Revolution - cor - my beloved rolling basslines!

    Cydonia - lighting rods ? animal people - I don't remember which one exactly... :)

     

    Should I describe them? I think everyone knows...

  4. On Goa-head vol. 7 there is this rather boring song from M.O.S. called "Click" but it is also on Tantrance vol. 7  but on Tantrance it is a total different song , and less boring.. where did this go wrong?.. i think the version on Tantrance is the right one, but what is the one on Goa-head vol. 7 then? Or vice versa?  :huh:

    Hm... Looks like 2 different tracks, really. I was mentioning the one on Tantrance 7 in my first post. But now I have no idea which one is "Click" exactly.
  5. I'm just listening to V.A. Exploring Another Reality from Organics, and... I should confirm that M.O.S. stuff is beautiful out there (tracks: "Spring" & especially "Voltkraft")! :wub: Not saying about their early stuff released elsewhere (for example, "Click" & "Winter Kills").

     

    I still haven't heard M.O.S. albums, but what concerns their older stuff, it's just excellent!!!

  6. * Zodiac Youth - "Cartographers Of The Universe"

    DeathPosture

    The more I listen to it, the more it blows me out!

    "Cartographers of the universe. Their maps, their star charts. How far does it go? Does time have an end? My personal theory is that everything is happening all the time. We're just not smart enough to see it, that's all!"

     

    Biot - Radiation

    Moonweed - Telepath

    Rhytmystec - Cathexis

    I can share this opinion too! =)

     

    I would add:

    C.O.P. - fairy in the dragonforest - from their album Urban Alien

    Crop Circles - different species - from their Full Mental Jackpot EP

    Juno Reactor - labyrinth - from their Samurai mini album

    Orion - the 8th - released on Psychedelic Electronica 2 (Psychic Deli) and re-released as a bonus track on Futuristic Poetry (Avatar)

    Radiation - on the machine

    Shiva Chandra - caraman - released on their debut album Spicy Moments

    Tripitaka - monkey on a cloud - from Sympathy In Chaos (Matsuri)

    Tromesa - yohimbe - from Psychedelic Electronica 2 (Psychic Deli)

    Typhoon - overture

    .

    .

    .

    Oh, my! I start understanding there're too many! =)

  7. what media is it printed on? what does it say in the middle of the cd?

    297934[/snapback]

    The media is a standard CD, not a CD-R. The surface is clean, no stains or anything. Looks very professional. There's no barcode on the inner ring, but it says BFLCD22 | MADE IN THE U.K. BY CD-SYSTEMS | 07957.

     

    check if there is a IFPI (SID Code) number on the silver side of the disc, if it has an IFPI (SID Code)

     

    number its an original... if it hasn't got a IFPI number its probably a fake;

    check out this PDF too:

    Oldies usually do not have IFPI codes on them.

     

    i think thats the best way to know if the cd is pirat!

    there is a cat # near the hole on the data side of the cd

    297965[/snapback]

    Is it really enough? I wonder if there can be a fake copy, that has even the same text "near the hole on the data side of the cd"?

  8. Well, I've just received a copy of UX - Ultimate Experience that, I suspect, may be a pirate pressing. So, is there a way to reveal a bootleg? I mean, a high-quality bootleg, a nearly exact copy? (As we have many pirate CDs sold here in Russia (even psy-trance CDs), which have some high-quality artwork copied from originals, but still they're no problem to detect.)

     

    P.S.: The fact is, we cannot only judge by artwork quality, as sometimes originals may have badly printed artwork (take Flying Rhino's releases such as Psyko Disko "Psycho disco", or "Rock bitch mafia" as an example of badly printed CD-artwork).

  9. Here's a small but heavy heap of CDs I got today:

     

    Cydonia - In Fear Of A Red Planet (Blue Room Released) - my long awaited Blue Room version :)

    Shiva Chandra - Positiv (Spirit Zone)

    Transwave - Phototropic (Distance)

    Various - Destination Goa vol.2 (Why Not)

    Various - Re:Evolution vol.1 (Flying Rhino)

     

    Everything's new except Re:Evolution :)...

  10. I've traded with Moty in the beginning of the year. Frankly saying, it was my first international trade ever :). Everything went smooth except for the Russian Post always making unnecessary delays (which is not anyone's problem though)...

     

    Anyway, the CDs arrived safe and well packaged, while their condition was the same as, or even better than stated.

     

    Besides, he's a very pleasant guy! He could even bear me changing my mind during the trade :D.

  11. A lot more interesting than the russian and South african psy stuff released nowdays.

    279899[/snapback]

    Actually, Russian & S.African psy... er... sorry, but mostly it sucks...

     

    And, there are at least 2 tracks at the comp. discussed, that I would add to my collection:

    Aldus B / Hot Data

    Catatonic Despair / Realm Of Lunacy

     

    Mind twisting stuff, that leaves a black hole in my head after only few minutes of listening %)).

  12. They were always the same for me. I don't know why people started using "Goa" for melodic stuff and "Psy" for anything else. It was not always like that, I suppose. And I don't understand such trends. Goa is just where it came from, even if it started in UK...

  13. SAY YOU LOVE ME 149BPM: The right tune to bring this mindblowing set of monsters to a close would always be a tough choice, but this slice of pure class surely fits the bill. Alternating between breakneck rushes of speed driven power and lush breaks of atmospherics and interweaving melodies, this is a breathtaking combination of styles that tears up the rule book and has fun doing it. A gorgeous, slow-mo outro provides the perfect finale for a truly groundbreaking selection.

    Not listening to the track itself I would say the review reminds a lot of those pompous glamour reviews using many strange words to say nothing... Another example of the overall scene degradation...
