    V/A - Trauma Trance

    in 2005

    Posted

    Bare with me as I try to express how I feel about the compilation....

     

     

    1#Tsabeat & Optical Human

    We start off with Tsabeat&Optical Human - Madbeat, and get a "little" sense of whats coming up during the

    next hour!A pretty decent track with a madbeat for sure, but it didnt quite didnt catch my attention

    compared to the other tracks featured on this compilation! Maybe I need to listen more ?

     

    2#Quasar-Brief Psychotic Disorder

    Quasar is picking it up from here, and taking it up a notch causing brief psychotic disorders in 150

    beats per minute!Every time I hear a new track from Quasar

    I get blown away by the hyper drumrolls and twisted melodies often heard in his music.

    Funny and psychedelic as allways, exelent track!

     

    3#Alien Mental-Sychoshift

    Are you ready for Alien Mental ? Well after probably a hundred listens ,if not even more,

    I have come to the conclusion that this has to be my favorite track on the compilation!

    The flow of funny sounds and hard leads fits very nice together imo,and the powerful bassline doesnt make it

    less lovable!!

    About the recycling of samples, I dont mind at all, I find it quite refreshing to hear one of the

    coolest samples ever used being recycled like this in such a mental track!

     

    4#Amanda-Meltdown Sequence Initiation

    Ever since Amanda's first track on Lhiannon Sidhe ive been nothing but curious of what else she had up here sleeve,

    and no surprise here, this is by far even crazier than expected! Extremely deep and mirky bassline rolling away

    in 150bpm, sounds to shake and stir you up emotionally, a rather hypnotic and traumatic track!Personally I

    really really really like it, but can understand that this could be a bit too much for some people!

    Meltdown Sequence Initiation Complete!

     

    5#Horror Place-Children Of The Night

    Horror Place is another project by Zik/Matutero and the keyword here is "Spooky"... The tweaked out evil sounds

    in Children of the night suits the trackname perfect ,loads of creepy

    samples manipulated in a way to give anyone the shivers,and offcourse a very powerful 150bpm bassline to

    back it all up with drummrolls going up, down sideways and whatnot! A very tasteful and original track!

    The upcoming album makes me wonder what the hell we are in for, but anyways , im prepared !

     

    6#Xyla-Cyrene's Ghost

    Xyla's debut release was like a breath of fresh air to me, and im glad there is more female producers

    writing disturbing music like this! We are now cruising in 147bpm with rumbling bassline somewhat similar

    to the metallaxis style heard lately! Metallic and traumatic noize flows thru the entire track with

    a lighter melody on top which makes it a little easyer to swallow!Im really looking forward to hear

    more from Xyla and the Xylamanda project!

     

    7#Ghreg On Earth-Unrealized Reality

    Next up is Ghreg on Earth, and if you havent gotten enough from his recent album Sigilweaver here's more

    goodies to digest! I find Ghregs music highly professional and well composed,not like everything else

    on any other menu.Like most of his previous tracks released we get here also

    Industrial ,psychedelic and techy sounds with dark melodies .very trippy and hypnotic,

    maybe a little slow compared to the rest of the tracks here, but still very very good!

     

    8#Mandrugorrah-Lulla Bye

    Mandrugorrah is a sideproject of the hungarians Para Halu, and this is a nice way to finnish the

    traumatic experience we have just been thru, non the less this track is probably more crazy than all the other

    ones put toghether and that should say most of it! Bloody overdrive , pounding beat and disturbing sounds

    pushes the limits to what we can call psytrance or traumatrance in that matter!

    But all in all a sweet Lullabye track for late nights,it will be interesting to hear

    more from the Mandrogorrah project in the future!

     

    So okay , In my oppinion this is possibly the coolest compilation released in 2005!

    I see some people find this a bit too hardcore ? Well, for me Im glad something like this

    finally happend, and that the M.o.E gals had the balls to put it out there for all of us to

    enjoy!

    Its not everyday we get music like this released, but I feel this is a new day so im quite

    exited to see whats coming the following months and year!

    I had some time to properly digest this compilation, and it has rarely left my cd player since I got it!

    It has been an intense listening experience from beginning till now, and the more I listen the more I love it!

    Fun ,disturbing and psychedelic traumatrance from the sunny westcoast!

    Keep it up M.o.E , this brings true meaning to high quality underground !

    The Pressing By Sony India didnt go as planned, so the overall quality of this compilation is rather poor, several tracks has missing outros and the volume is way below normal! Sony india is fully responsable for this , mastering by chromatone is exelent and the original master copy is just as it should be! I was told next time will not be a failure!

    The highcosmos album was also with errors and they had to do a repress!

     

     

    Otherwise a very nice compilation,

    wirikuta is all great people and very service friendly!

    However.. i was thinking exactly the same and i ordered va-refused about 9 days ago now and i still havent seen it.. also the same with derango i ordered from wirikuta the other day.. so i hope it will arrive sooner or i might have to go back to psyshop... I simply cant wait 1-2 weeks for a cd to get delivered!

     

    Lets Haul Assss

    any experiences with dejavu...

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    I feel there is mixed experiences with the dejavu shop...

    I have ordered 2 times in the last period. Both times i had to request a confirmation email because i did not get it until i asked.

    They replied both times and both shipments arrived after 6-7 days.

    Now their website in not online so i dont know whats going on with them but iknow my friend has been waiting for a cd for about 3 weeks that has not arrived yet and email has not been replied.

     

    just my 2 cents...

    Whats the "scariest" track/album

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    I think xenomorph did a good job in oslo sometime back with his combined live and dj set...

    I think i allmost swollowed my heart and spit it right back up there at some point (under the influence) .. Scary stuff indeed (from time to time).. ..

    did you attend that evening psytones?

     

    And i can mention 1 other person that has been able to actually scare me on the dancefloor under the influence... (i love the feeling) and his name is Captain Ifan Freakout!

     

    Enjoy
