  1. It's been identified (a Finnish track) but will remain "hidden" just a little longer, I think.
  2. This one of course: and maybe this:
  3. The news is we had to replace the Vincent track (no good rip was found) and replace it with 'Encens - Howl', not a bad track that one either. Now the compilation is pretty much finished with mastering and sent to the pressing plant.
  4. One of the better forest artists I've found on ektoplazm compilations. I wish only that this had been a full length, but still a nice release.

    Favourite DJ

    Well the Finnish DJ Lupu who specializes in proto-Goa sound is definitely one. You ought to check out his mixes on youtube if interested in the old stuff? Paul Eye on this forum is great with chill-out sets, but his knowledge of that music is very deep, too. But honestly, I value artists much higher than DJs. Takes a whole different level of dedication, passion and yearn to become an artist with a signature sound.
  6. Hi everyone! 5 months I didn't touch the decks so forgive the tad shoddy mixing at places... Here's an old school goa trance mix to celebrate the start of the year 2016!

  7. It was confirmed on FB not to be Transwave or Dado/Deedrah production by the artist himself.
  8. I believe they're greek. (??) And even know the name of one guy but let's keep that a secret as the producers would like I suppose. Really would like to see an album from them, too. They made really unique dark goa with lots of direction changes within tracks, very storytelling atmosphere one can't but to admire.
  9. This compilation has received a lot of attention, so I thought I'd chip in and tell a few thoughts that spurred in my mind listening to this a couple times. It's a fair thing to say that the overall quality is pleasant; there's no really mediocre tracks on any cd. The bad side is, like noted by an earlier reviewer, the music is somewhat stagnated to sound very alike (with a couple exceptions, sure) and listening to this thing throughout on one go feels like an attempt I'm unable to accomplish. I've noticed every little niche of a genre tends to progress into something quite homogenic, and goa trance is no different in that matter. As a producer myself, I hate to trashtalk any particular track. It's very much a fact not everything is meant to suit my taste. The only exception to that rule is, and I feel compelled to say this, a small statement about the Merr0w track: it's mixing is a bit brutal. The mid-level sounds, especially in the later half of the track, are blurry and hard to identify. I think overall the mids are a bit too high as well. This track sounds very different from a production angle to anything else here. There's many good moments sprinkled on these three cds. Here's what caught my attention: - Psy-H Project's "Precession Of The Universe" has a great melody near the end of the track. Gives my a feeling of Slavic melancholy in its most delicate and beautiful form. - Everything by Celestial Intelligence is great here. It's very small details, even impossible to mention in written language, they do different that makes them stand out for me. They're really at the top of the game at the moment. - Centavra Project's "Capsula" has something special to it. Very coherent track with well placed elements, like they used to do in the 90s! - Artifact303's "Family Of Light" is a great ender like many seemed to think. I love the spoken sample!
  10. Hah! It's not my favourite style, but I do listen to it with one of my friends. Here's a couple that I like: +1 on that Commander Tom suggestion.
  11. Oh yeah it's a beauty. I was on a hunt for cd-single copy and couldn't pass an offer of 23 euros with free shipping. Talking about a bargain bhai!
  12. The last two minutes are really nice on this.
  13. Global Communication - Pentamerous Metamorphosis http://www.discogs.com/Chapterhouse-Retranslated-By-Global-Communication-Blood-Music-Pentamerous-Metamorphosis/master/16312 Gods Of Luxury - Sensations of Tone http://www.discogs.com/GOL-Sensations-Of-Tone/master/488754 Bola - Soup http://www.discogs.com/Bola-Soup/master/13535 That's my top-3!
  14. Hallucinogen – Gamma Goblins (Bad for Children Mix) Is this by Hallucinogen or other some artist?
  15. I listened to the track and indeed, the sample sounds very out of place.
  16. I think Joseph has Anthony Koppenaal's contact info. You could start from there.
  17. I was asking myself the same question before, but I think it's indeed X-3 and not Dreamtime. Dreamtime is featured on 'The Psychedelic Experience vol 2' and it's easy to check that way... (I think Draeke already did it.) I think the tracklist is even better than I was expecting. A lot of tracks are featured that I thought never would come out. And many 'big names' are here with their last v-o track which is, in some way, a nice closure. As for Koxbox... I think there are plans for that one.
