Phreaky - Over the Moon The Muses Rapt - Spiritual Healing Western Rebel Alliance - Slewake Twisted Travellers - Strange Creatures Purple Om - Armageddon Dub Tripswitch - Shamanic Tea & Deer Park The Infinity Project - The Answer Union Jack - No Armageddon Amethystium - Shadow to Light

Shaolin Wooden Men - Supermindway Which is just fucking Nuts Infected Mushroom's - I'm the supervisor sounds like dark 80's funk mixed with trance, not heard that anywhere else. The Prodigy - Music for the Jilted Generation I know its not psy but it is so famous and no one has even maneged to successfully copy liam's style that I think it should be here

BUS - morebusinesslinkyouthere Really nice stuff I'd highly recommend it if you fancy it!

Just got it in the post this afternoon, giving it its first listen now. all can say so far is WoW!

As you're going to Japan you should check out JP Noir on b.p.f records, its a really good japanese comp. very cool and sounds very futuristic just like tokyo or minato mirai 21. ps Japanese record shops are great place to find all the rare stuff you've been looking for and lots of stuff gets released here first. have fun

I bought a lot of albums this year, some of it great, some of it average some of it dissapointing, some of it awful I unfortunately bought Bamboo Forest - Revival this was dissapointing and shit I liked Shpongle's contribution to 2005 even if it was a bit dissapointing it was still top notch.

Don't think anything is really 10/10 although a lot come close

1 Tripswitch - Circuit Breaker 2 Entheogenic - Dialogue of the Speakers 3 Shpongle - Nothing Lasts... (unashamedly) 4 Makyo - Swara Mandala 5 Jaia - Fiction Not a fantastic year for psy trance releases but there have been some quality laid back releases. Tripswitch - Circuit Breaker is pure class. Lets have some real quality in the trance releases this year.

Wow this sucks

As for the Classsical Mushroom similarity: listen to The Shen and Conciousness. 90% ripoff in the middle part. I thought that too. This albums okay but some of the drugs samples get really irritating on repeated listens.

Puff Dragon Sazanami 1. Sazanami 2. Qi Gong 3. Chinese Radio (Beijing Taxi Version) 4. Marine Drive 5. Spacefunk 6. Skin as Soft (soft as silk remix) 7. Lava 8. Shimmer (Liquid lounge version) Qi Gong is a very nice track and a stand out on the album but credit must also be given to Skin as Soft and Lava which are also just beautiful. The whole albums lovely and flows together nicely but these three pieces stand out like a standing ovation. Top stuff Puff Dragon. Ps the New Makyo Album is even better. Check out the last 3 tracks at least if yu like Dakini's style.

Psychedelia stirs emotion from the soul! All music should be able to do this but unfortunately there is a whole load of crap out there. The best psy trance really moves you as does quality laid back stuff. Leave the genre and you still get really psychedelic stuff. Listen to Enigma's 3rd album, very Trippy! or some of Enya's early work could produce hallucinations without drugs. Its just a shame most people listen to STEPS or Take That, music? Im not sure. It definately doesnt stir any emotion in me. Come to Japan where the pop is so bad it sounds like a rusty hinge but the psychedelic stuff is classy futuristic stuff. Check of JP Noir.

Can be a bit too trancey in places dane bbut the overall atmosphere of the album is decent enough. I like it. Not an essential release but good adition to anyone's collection.

I enjoyed the album a lot, especially the kick bong tracks. I never really got into the first one but I'll definately give it a few extra listens after I heard the quality of this release, very nice to relax too. The Kick Bong album itself is alright but my copy seems to be flawed and wont play one of the tracks. Damn. Mountain high two is definately worth a listen 7/10

Puff Dragon Sazanami

Even Tower Records in Shibuya has a really good selection of trance and chilled stuff
