    Discogs compilation track search tool

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    Just repaired a little web tool I did for automating compilation track-by-track search in discogs.

     

    Since it was tailor-made for finding tracks in goa compilations, it may be of interest here:

     

    Hi all,

     

    I've put together a little web utility to search discogs for track duplicates:

     

    http://discogs-pcb.herokuapp.com

     

    Basically:

     

    1. It downloads an index of your collection to your browser's local cache.

    2. Given a release-id, it performs a search for each track, and matches the results against the cached collection index.

     

    It's nice for shopping (check before buying a V/A) or finding redundant comps in our own collection.

     

    If you give it a try, feel free to comment. Thanks!

    "V/A - Gaia 10"

    in 1996

    This is a fave of mine (with the rest of the old Gaia Tontraeger stuff). I even like the cover. Simplistic, but it has a certain ellegance to it and it's trippy to stare at.

    Psychoactivity

     

    "No Process" is a favorite Irritant tune, collaboration with Atmos.

     

    I like the electro stuff on We Interface. Forum hate made me avoid that album for some time, but now I love it, and the robotic vocals, too. Very diverse album, the kick in Distressor is almost doomcore.

    First stuff you listened to

    My first contact with goa trance was probably in 1998. I was intrigued by certain spiralling sounds I heard in a coffeeshop in Amsterdam, during an interrail trip around Europe.

    Back home, being more or less familiar with electronic music, I had a look in the goa trance section of a record store (that wouldn't exist for much longer), and got two V/A comps: Black Rhino and Forever Psychedelic. From there I got hooked. Bought some more releases at the same place (Equator, Voodoo Witch, Distance To Goa box-sets). Searching the web I found sites like TRiP, goatrance.free.fr and mp3.com, and have kept collecting the stuff until now.
