  2. I've listened to it a few times now and I can find something I like in every track. I think they have a great foundation with the rhythm, bass and overall feel, BUT I do agree there's always something missing from taking it to the next level. The only exception to this I find is Mushrooms & Moonshine - when the oozey melody comes in at around 4:45, now that's the next level I'm talking about It's not dramatic, but adds another skewed dimension to the whole trip. Still I think it's a great addition to the forest family of trance. It's floaty, and a good contrast to Goch - which is more oppressive, complex, swamp trance. I think it's nice to have the diversity and that more artists are doing their style of forest
  3. This EP is dripping thick with raw acid melodies! But after listening to him play his new stuff live last month... my expectations for his upcoming releases are even higher, especially the aggressive Pleiadians remixes I'm happy there is a fresh new artist in the scene to watch out for
  4. Well... that was harder than expected Pleiadians - IFO Hallucinogen - The Lone Deranger Fractal Glider - Parasite Logic Bomb - Headware Etnica - The Juggeling Alchemists Under The Black Light Tamlin - Spectrogram The Muses Rapt - Spiritual Healing Talpa - Art of Being Non Battle of the Future Buddhas - Twin Sharkfins UX - Ultimate Experience
  5. What's the link for the Facebook page?
  6. There are people out there living very close to these "hippie ideals" in terms of non-pollution and abstaining from monetary or corporate interactions by ways of (almost) complete self-sufficiency and sustainability - usually by implementing some form of permaculture. Check out these 2 podcasts if you're interested in having a rare glimpse: http://www.thepermaculturepodcast.com/2012/ethanhughes/ http://www.thepermaculturepodcast.com/2013/ethan-hughes-two/ They wouldn't call themselves hippies and have no desire (ego) to be exposed outside of their own communities, which is why you wouldn't hear about them or run into them unless you are on this path yourself. But this lifestyle is what most "hippies" would dream of... and would be able to attain if they dropped the drugs and put in a few years of planning and work Now as for these "fashion hippies"... that's what they are. The pressures of injustice have morphed them into the paradox that they are. We all have different tolerance levels and response patterns. I wouldn't judge them too harshly, but I would certainly have a good laugh... after all we're all disciples of the Church of the New Age Hippie Disco Shit
  7. D5 track might be a re-release, but anyhow: Ankrosado - Thing BlackStarrFinale - A New Name Dimension 5 - Synthonic Switch Lectro Spektral Daze - Out of Body Experience Morphic Resonance - Epsilon Aurigae Adrenalin Run - Spoiled Brats Cybered - Nobody Goch - Swirling Crystal JaraLuca - Minds Circus Ufomatka - Alien's Lair
  8. I've listened to quite a few Hi Tech compilations, but I couldn't find anything similar to what this guy is doing. His style is very distinctly melodic hi tech with trance breaks... but at 190 BPM! It may seem like overkill, but have a listen to some examples of what I'm talking about (I've included the time when said melodies enter): https://youtu.be/1B8qWQMR61Q?t=3m30s https://youtu.be/bs4nT3p1stc?t=4m50s https://youtu.be/FKUYegdh-tc?t=5m20s I'm interested to hear if other goaheads appreciate this as much as I do
  9. What a journey! It's an unorthodox mix and therefore difficult to separate tracks (and the tracks within the tracks), but as a complete voyage it's a mind blast... especially as things start to heat up towards the end If this is the direction that Neogoa is taking, I like it and want more more
  10. I've never been much into Shakta, despite giving him plenty of listens. It's great music live, but for home listening I just find the basslines too disharmonic and distracting from the overall flow and feel. That trend continues here for me. I like Cosmic Trigger and Misra Indica a little bit more over the rest, but still nothing to go crazy over with... and I've tried!
  11. +1 The style is a little unexpected from DE, but wow... what a track!
  12. The climax of the first track is pure psychedelic bliss

    Koan - The Way Of One

    Lovely album! There's also a review topic here.

    Cybered - Acid Box

    Holy shit! I'm not a fan of tech trance, but thought I'd give this a quick listen on bandcamp due to all the freaking hype... and I'm blown away! An unforgetable journey and now I need to listen to his previous album also. Quick highlights include Nobody, Wild Tuba, Micron Slutterz and Vasya Exhale. It's like X-Dream's Irritant and SynSUN's Symphonic Adventures had a beautiful dark-featured love child!
  15. Woah what a nice surprise! Acidic and bright... this is the sort of stuff I would like to hear at a festival in the morning
  16. Artist: Limiti Album: Information Is Creation Sheem Records 2015 01 - Andromorphus Rexalia (155 BPM) 02 - Sundisc Activation (150 BPM) 03 - Subetheric Release (144 BPM) 04 - Melom - Unrealistic Reality (Limiti Remix) (151 BPM) 05 - Source Limit Zero (vs Sourcerer) (143 BPM) 06 - Vozethar (155 BPM) 07 - Interuniversal Grid (146 BPM) 08 - Forbidden Teachings (145 BPM) 09 - Elohymn (143 BPM) 10 - Max & Arcturian Frequencies (145 BPM) This is an unexpected blast of some pumping forest Goa! Well maybe not too heavy on the Goa, but you can certainly smell it within the layers. Reminds of the melodic days of Schlabbaduerst with more of a dancefloor focus. Sundisc Activation and Vozethar really stand out for me, although there are a few more that I really enjoy at specific sections. Give it a listen, I feel there's something special about this. Available as free download from Ektoplazm

    E-Mantra - Nemesis

    Wow, well I listened to this a couple of months ago and didn't think much of it. Some nice sections, but nothing very memorable. After giving it another chance I realize that this music is dripping with acid that's being pumped along with an impecable groove - I fucking love it! There are no in-your-face climaxes by which to recall specific tracks and I believe that's why some people might not be taken by it... just as the previous version of myself wasn't. But the entire album is a voyage in itself and I would strongly recommend a focused listen. I bet it's a BLAST on the dancefloor, shame there's a slim chance of that happening... unless I run into Anoebis
  18. Wow what a pleasant surprise! It's great to see an old psynewser making some fresh original stuff. Perhaps reminds of some old Tim Schuldt, but that's as close as I can get to a comparison. Looking forward to hearing more of this.
  19. 1. Alone In Canoe 2. Eagle's Tale 3. Tears Of Thunder Spirit (Blue Mix) 4. Hanblicheya (Blue Mix) 5. Fighting With Unchegila 6. Dreamers Of Black Hills (Blue Mix) 7. Vision Of Star Woman (Big Deeper Mix) 8. Tribute For Hiawatha 9. Uenuku (Blue Mix) 10. Peta-Owi Hankeshni! Well I logged in for the first time in 6 years just to post this! This album did not get released within the Psy scene, so I think it would be a shame if it fell through the cracks. It's melodious, harmonic, rhythmic, emotional downtempo music that will take your mind and feelings for a spin. The whole album has a very definite style to it, yet each track brings something new and not a single one leaves me feeling flat, it's elation throughout. Ones that really stand out for me are 5 and 6. I'm sorry if this review doesn't say much, but I lack eloquence to translate this music into words. You can listen to the whole album on YouTube, and chances are you will already buy it before you get halfway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9JV4XnrCf0
  20. Very nice surprise! Sounds fresh... which is rare these days...

    Ott - Skylon

    A few years have passed and I'm still fucking crazy over Hallucinogen in Dub, as much as I've been since I first heard it. This is why back in the day I gave Blumenkraft many many opportunities to impress me, but that just never happened. I feel the same for Skylon... it's alright background music, but that's about it.
  22. Sounds very suomisaundi, surprising to find he's from Isreal... then again there's also Exuus so might me a trend going on with the spugadelic infection spreading... definitely a good thing Funky, acidic, slightly melodic... was really looking forward to it and I'm glad it didn't disappoint! Gi'iwa is the future...
  23. I wasn't too impressed by the previous evsy albums, so the expectations were not as high. But hey I was wrong and this one blew me away! Suomisaundi with diversity and innovation, served funki.
  24. It's not full on nor progressive nor cryptic crunch... too bad Their live act still rocks though!
