  1. What a great album! A funtastic second effort from Penta.

     

    It certainly remains distinctly Penta. Some odd samples, but most are fine with me.

    Agreed, great trak, I'm guessing the title reflects the use of the D.K's Holiday in Cambodia.

    Ranking the D.K's in my all time top 5 fave acts, this just blew my sox clean off.

     

    A very punchy driving album that has so much space between all the sounds and elements. Everything breathes in unison and creates a fantastic flow, never getting overly cluttered. Kicks like a demented mule as well.

     

    Massive cheers to Penta for more great tunes.

  2. But I didn't hear the word "dark" mentioned once above by Inpsyde-head...

    hmmmm :blink:

     

    First of all this is not dark music! Are you still there? Derango's debut album is pure twisted psychedelic forest trance from Sweden.

     

     

    The Inpsyde promo sys it all. Thats pretty much how i interpret Derango. This stupid fucking categorizing of artists as dark is about as accurate as that other ridiculous pigeonhole "Full on"

     

     

    Cheers to Inpsyde for releasing this. But especially to Derango for being utterly crazy nutters of the highest order.

     

    Bring on October.

  3. Jocid - From Meatware to Hardware (will drill inside)

     

    Klangbilderzeuger - Frankfurt a.m (kinda proggy, early 12"s are cool)

     

    Entropy - The second law of... (this is farkin' heavy, beware)

     

    Hujaboy - Hujajoy (you may have already heard, still a great album)

     

    Permutations/Intelligent Manipulation - Zenon Records (I dont have Sensient but these two awesome dark proggy releases are compiled by Sensient. Ballistic is a great tune)

     

    Midi Miliz - Non Standards (impossible to dislike, perhaps not dark enuff, but probably just dark enuff)

     

    Krumelur - minimal animal (already mentioned and well described)

     

    Stuff from Ambivalent Records.........

  4. Droidlock - Elefantronika album

     

    OMG ! This is pure old school influenced psychedelic mayhem...Yummy ! :)

    Its bloody great stuff indeed Seraph!

    A fairly poor review (virtually a tracklist) was posted in late April, some weeks after I got my copy and no-one, myself included, bothered to write any words about this one.

     

    Perhaps you might write some thoughts. Wouldnt mind reading your opinion ;)

     

    Did you like High Phonic??

  5. I remember seeing that Nocturna - cronik cover a while ago. I actually laughed beer through my nose. :lol:

    uuggkhh

     

    The Devils Mind cover is obviously affected by their metal influences. I noticed that the first time I visited their site ages ago. Kinda black metal style, pentagrams, goats heads etc. But the comp cover is more a grind style cover.

     

    Its average. Perhaps not whats expected from a supposed psy sleeve, but I dont give a shit. I expect someone will get their knickers in a twist claiming "our scene doesnt need this". Just looking at the tracklist confirms that the tunes within are equally brutal. Been looking forward to this for quite a while now, almost there.

     

    I'll take this sleeve over a lot of other shite out there.

  6. Fuck yeah Neuron Compost is psytastic Aussie madness. Izilop Pop has been a fave trak for ages now, the last 1:20 is bliss. I finally got another fix with Meat Nectar and to a lesser extent Dragon Poo. Not sure if I can stand those samples, and I share his accent!

     

    Schizm and Moon Unit are wonderfully twisted releases.

     

    @ Nightmare, did you enjoy the hidden trak on Schizm? ;)

     

    Neuron Compost indeedy.. :lol:

  7. Nice comp. I actually like the Silicon sound trak :huh: Prefer pure analog style though.

     

    Artifakt rox hard. As usual ;)

     

    Phatmatix and Phatmatix vs trax kick ass.

     

    Nice varied comp that sounds great.

  8. Edan - Beauty and the Beat. :blink:

     

    Hip Hop with a 60's sounding psychedelic twist, strange but brilliant.

     

     

    Suntrip recs comp - Apsara :D

     

    Really enjoying this. Not usually my style, but I like some variation. Quality.

    Cheers to Mars and Anoebis.

     

     

    Filteria - Sky Input :)

     

    Another Suntrip release. Again not something I usually listen too, but I'm enjoying these tunes a lot. Ukiro, your artwork is tasty mate. Very autumn.

  9. Not better or worse, just different. What we've got hear is an incredibly solid and cohesive trance album, from the second it starts it oozes quality and the tracks seem to compliment each other so well that that - in the best possible way -

    they really don't stand out, they are all that good. When I originally put the CD on the first half of the album flew by so effortlessly that I soon lost track of which tune I was on I was simply drifting on the sound. And here was me worrying that full-on producers had forgotten about the "trance" part of psytrance.

     

    Bloody well said.

    This is silky smooth stuff, I'm reminded of Silicon Sound - pure analog, somewhat.

     

    This has been rockin' and seducing my ears for days now! With Spring around the corner, it fits just nicely.

      Well said Homsy...and let us not forget "Never judge a book by its cover"...

     

    What a load of shit.

     

     

    Nothing in the content of the art work of this CD reflects badly on the female kind.

    I was educated in a world were man & woman are considered equal, with equal opportunities and needs.

    The body of mankind is something sacred, I don't see the difference between what you see when you head down to the beach.

     

     

    Nothing in this artwork is even remotley creative. It looks like a poor tracing of a cheap porn comic. Artwork my arse. Topless ladies and g-string wearing men at a beach is one thing,(strange how no blokes appear on the cover...???) but I personally have never been to a beach where females are lying around blatantly sunning their vaginas for all to see. If the artwork is a representation of the tunes within, then this Trancelucent comp is as trancelucent as the majority of mainstream r'n b sex sells mainstream shite' that is forced upon us every day.

     

    Psy and Goa trance has a definite history of representing PLUR. What a shame that abhorrent covers like this appear.
