26 years on and this is still given a lot of air time over in Casa De Abasio. I absolutely love this and I will stand by my advice from....checks the date...17 effing years ago đ˛ That listening to The Mystery Of The Yeti, then the Mystery of the Yeti Part II, the The Infinity Project - Mystical Experiences is a fantastic experience that everyone should do.
-
While I love all of Hallucinogen's up tempo work, the best track for me is "The Herb Garden" It is one of my most listened to tracks over the years and one of the highlights from the Mystery of the Yeti duology

What music are you listening to right now?

Jaia - Fiction I was always disappointed with this album as it was so different from Blue Energy, but over the years, as my audio set up has improved I have come to appreciate it a lot more. Lots of little details in every track, nice rhythms, and very psychedelic. My never ending mission is to re-listen to all the albums I was unimpressed with before I got better headphones/speakers -
Why does noone talk about Miranda Silvergreen?
abasio replied to Radish6404's topic in General Psytrance
The link you shared clearly states Miranda as a producer/writer of the track though... -
All goodâaccidental caps lock happens to the best of us. I think weâve both made our preferences clear, and thatâs fine. Letâs enjoy what we each like and leave it at that. And I wonât fight with you eitherâunless you claim the E848s sound better than the Sennheiser HE-1.

Where can we buy?

I am quite amazed that there are only 7 posts (8 now) on this compilation. This is such an amazing compilation from such and great label at the height of amazing GOA and only 7 people have bothered about it? Not sure if people haven't heard this, or are just too shy to comment on it, but come one, this is an absolute classic. Why are not more people talking about it?

Listening again to this album now and it is amazing. The melodies just hit the spot every time. My favourite is still Mai Mai and it's one of those tracks tha lives on in the memory and demands a re-listen every now and then.
-
+9 years later and this is still one of my most listened to compilations. It just hits the right spot when I want something between Goa and Prog. Brilliant throughout.
-
Very strong compilation, I have this as Dragonfly Classix and every track is great. Some really overdone tracks (still great) and some underrated classics. No duds, just a few tracks that aren't as stellar as the stand out ones. Overall a must listen for anyone getting into the genre.

So we agree the MDRâE868 existedâgood to have that settled at least. Iâll leave the âred vs green soundscapesâ debate to you. Enjoy your gear and take care.

Pan Electric - Conscious Pilot It's been a while since I listened to this. Forgot how beautiful and relaxing it is -

Total Eclipse - Little Bit of Heaven from TIP Orange -
Another album that I feel still sounds really good today. May not be in as heavy rotation as it was 20 years ago, but it still gets some love
-
Eat Static - Prana & Hallucinogen - Solstice are a couple of favourites for me đ I like everything on this, it's a good classic compilation. Genetic - Trancemission is always a winner

Hallucinogen - The Singles & Albums remastered
abasio replied to Trolsk's topic in General Psytrance
This is in my wishlist (Digital only these days, thank god for Band camp with FLAC) but waiting for the GBP to JPY exchange rate to calm down a bit. 15GBP now is just really expensive in yen đŠ -

Now I know that you are trolling They didn't exist because YOU didn't see them on eBay? Nothing exists outside of eBay right? If they don't exist the what is this? I'll not say any more on the topic if you cannot discuss things in good faith.

Thanks for proving, once again, that youâre not really engaging with facts or reality. Iâll leave you to your car pictures and personal theories. I came back after many years away hoping there might still be some meaningful discussion here, but if this is what passes for it now, Iâll bow out of this thread. If anyone else still around wants to talk music, gear, or just share memories of the old psytrance days, Iâm always happy to chat elsewhere on the forum.

Right now: Doof - Mars Needs Women By far the best track of this name -
So let me get this straight: â You deny the existence of the MDRâE868 even though it was literally in Sonyâs catalog. â You think Pentium 1 processors and wood TVs somehow prove the E848 was the âsecond most expensive.â â And now Iâm supposed to judge 1995 earbuds based on a smartphone recording of your Canton speakers and your dadâs 2006 car stereo? 𤨠Right⌠Anyway, facts donât change: ⢠The MDRâE888 was more expensive than the E848. ⢠Ultimate Ears & Westone pro IEMs did exist in 1995 and cost $700â900. ⢠And yes, the MDRâE868 also existedâcatalog scans are out there if you care. If youâre more interested in uploading random car audio videos than actually looking at historical facts, thatâs on you. Iâll stick with documented prices, not nostalgia and smartphone mic recordings. đ

30 years later and this is still one of my top albums. Absolutely love it from start to finish and I still listen to it all the time.

So⌠Pentium processors, old TVs, your dadâs car, and Creative Audigy cards somehow prove the MDRâE848 was the secondâmost expensive inâear of 1995? đ¤ Interesting logic. Look, Iâm not arguing whether you like the soundâthatâs subjective. If the E848 is the best youâve heard, great. But liking them doesnât rewrite history: ⢠Sony MDRâE888 was actually the top consumer earbud back then, more expensive than the E848. ⢠Ultimate Ears and Westone were already selling pro inâear monitors for $700â900 in 1995âliterally 20Ă the price of the E848. ⢠And if we go beyond earbuds, Sennheiserâs HE60/HE90 electrostatics were in the thousands. So no, the E848 wasnât anywhere near the topânice midâhigh consumer buds, sure, but not the âsecond most expensive inâear option of the era.â

The MDRâE848 definitely wasnât the second most expensive inâear option in 1995. Professional inâear monitors already existed and cost hundreds of dollars. In 1995, the first custom dualâdriver IEMs were made. These custom monitors sold for around USâŻ$700â900 per set, far beyond any consumer earbud pricing. Westone and Shure were also producing early stage monitors like the Shure E1 and E5, similarly priced in the high hundreds of dollars. So, there were already models costing 20Ă more than the E848. Even within Sonyâs own consumer lineup, the MDRâE848 wasnât the most expensive. The MDRâE888 was Sonyâs flagship consumer earbud at the time, retailing around ÂĽ5,000â6,000 (about USâŻ$50). Other models like the MDRâE868 and MDRâE838 also sat above the E848 in price, in the ÂĽ4,000â5,000 range. The MDRâE848 cost about ÂĽ3,300 (~USâŻ$30)âupper midâtier but not top of the line, even for Sony. So the E848 was neither the second most expensive earbud, nor close to the highest-priced in-ear option in 1995. At best it was a midâhigh consumer model, well below both Sonyâs own E888 and the genuinely expensive IEMs.
