  2. VA - Soul Vibration#002 CD Release Date: OUT NOW !!! Following hot on the heels of the UK label Liquid Record's smashing success of a downtempo compilation "Soul Vibration" is the much awaited sequel, "Soul Vibration#002" In keeping with Liquid's tradition of eclectic genre fusion, "SV#002" contains a harmonious 10 tracks featuring some of the world's hottest new and proven acts in the downtempo sector. From Phutureprimitive to Nagual Sound Experiment to Slackbaba, This collection of Liquid's most stellar talent is sure to please the senses and slide you into that special spring groove.This album doubtlessly lives up to the high standards of the label and its impressive lineup of musical talent. Each track showcases nicely the divergent sounds of each of these artists. From the indoor urban clubs to chillout spaces in the middle of the wilds, once again Liquid puts a little something for every environment into this tracklist, as any great compilation should be. Give this album a listen to see what all the buzz is about. CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Terrey Davey - Karin 2. System 7 - Kupuri (Mirror System Remix) 3. Slackbaba - Tsentak 4. Nagual Sound Experiment - Completely Sideways 5. Mood Deluxe - Mercury Rising 6. Organismic - On The Air (Original Mix) 7. Capsula - Golden Orb 8. Phutureprimitive - Innerverse 9. Zubzub - Inner Marine 10. Terrey Davey - Liquid Soul Track by Track Terrey Davey - Karin A folksy acoustic guitar intro makes for an unexpectedly enjoyable beginning to this diverse chilled out odyssey of an album. So sit back, open your mind and float away on clouds of smile-provoking guitar chords. System 7 - Kupuri (Mirror System Remix) The intro track eases gently into an electro-acoustic blend of guitar harmonics, world beat drum arrangements and vocals, and warm, thick basslines. Minimalistic and benevolent, System 7 keeps the atmosphere light and spacious... sixteenth-note synth backgrounds get your brain waves in sync while the drum and bass progresses subtly and smoothly. Very chilled out and easy on the ears. Slackbaba - Tsentak Slackbaba definitely pushes the envelope of his Eastern-influenced, abstract dub style with this third addition. intricate sound patterns flit from left to right, expanding the boundaries of the sound while chopped-up, delay-touched filtering over electric piano adds a smooth, bluesy feel. The drumlines are simply great and never stay the same... you'll keep looking around for an invisible drummer you'd swear is sitting right next to you, playing along. Nagual Sound Experiment - Completely Sideways Nagual Sound Experiment, the side project of Brighton's Mood Deluxe, takes a stride away from his normally more "urban" sound to deliver a dubbed-out, locally grown musical piece heavy on triplet syncopation and psychedelic guitar. The name of this one fits so well because the masterful beat arrangement gives the music a very lopsided feel, albeit still very danceable. This piece highlight's well Cameron's expansive musical potential... check it out. Mood Deluxe - Mercury Rising Cameron follows up his downtempo alterego with a lofty epic of a breakbeat track combining the worlds of two-step with old-school melodic goa flavor. The bass is warm, thick and slippery and your feet are sure to glide right across it on the dancefloor! The trippy eastern female vocals add an emotive spice to the audio ether. There are so many noises that simply tickle the neurons in this one, and some insanely good percussive breakdowns midway... if "Mercury" can't get you moving, nothing will. Organismic - On The Air (Original Mix) The first track in the second half of this innovative compilation is a saga of a track... a safari that is a change of flavor to what came before. At times haunting and acid-etched, others retro and ethno-centric, "On The Air" has as much ebb and flow as the Mississippi River. The drums are well-filtered and pop at you in a front-to-back sort of way you simpl don't hear in more two-dimensional tracks. This piece is ten minutes very well spent. Capsula - Golden Orb Further down the spiral, "Golden Orb" by Capsula is the sort of track born to be played loudly, from deep within a mountain wilderness grove. Heady guitar, filtered trance melodies make the "meat" of this one... From the lows of the bass and kicks to the highest of the hats and echoed synth squelches, this track has a great buildup in intensity from beginning to end. This "Orb" will find its way into many an outdoor event this coming season. Phutureprimitive - Innerverse Open your mind to the unorthodox when this track starts playing... Phutureprimitive follows every musical tradition and none with this piece. Expect non-standard note timings that arrest your attention and force you into the details. The basslines are great, changing keys on you every so often while drum beats bounce about all around you. Spacey pads dissasociate you from your norms... and if you listen closely enough, you'll find that what's between the notes is just as pleasing as the notes themselves. Zubzub - Inner Marine Zubzub of the legendary Ozric Tentacles delivers a cloudy dubtrance track rife with harmonic synth pad resonance and retro old school spirals reminiscent of childhood science shows on television. Flutes from both the Old and New Worlds dance along with staccato electronic rhythms along a substrata of elastic basslines, causing an atmosphere of musical convergence created by a longtime veteran of electo-acoustic live music. Terrey Davey - Liquid Soul Davey's outro of feartfelt classical guitar brings this outstanding compilation around full circle and leaves you in a sense of contented spiritual relaxation. Davey's guitar art is intuitive and wholesome... the minds of Liquid were ingenious to have him begin and end their newest comp this way... by the ond of this CD you'll find yourself back where you started, and feeling a little wiser for your trip.

  4. Reon ~ Movement Release date: 07 July 2008 With over a decade and a half's worth of experience roaming the world as a psy-trance DJ as well as producing his own sounds for equally as long, Reon is one of those artists who exists beyond classifications and is truly on his own level. From London to Cape Town to Melbourne to the Ajuna beaches, Reon's music reflects his extensive career, with a unique sound that has been evolving along its own trees since a time before electronic genres began to be classified and quantized. Currently owner of Sweden-based 67Rec Projects, Reon's fourth album, "Movement", is close to being released amid much ado and eager anticipation as a pivotal release in the life's work of this dedicated and industrious artist. CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES [*]1. Phinal Enigma [*]2. Total Confusion [*]3. Wishful Thinking [*]4. White Fluff [*]5. Svartalfheimr [*]6. Reverse Engineering [*]7. Altlandis [*]8. Dandelion Seeds [*]9. The Nowhere Man Track by Track Phinal Enigma Resonant harmonic collusions of sound forebear a twisted, thumping tale of thick grooves clashing dynamically with grating, grinding synth bass and rolling melodies. Heavy duty percussion and corrosive saw waves slice through your cerebrum and surrender you to its thrall. Each sound is eerily rich, with a duality of light and dark rolling moods. Total Confusion A ramped-up tempo and a meaty, in-your-face bass greet you amidst nighttime atmospheres of feral synth squishes and squirts. Spontaneous changes in the lower frequencies warp the mood subtly yet perceptibly. The influences of the Anjuna beaches can be heard here, and crisp drum work and melodies keep this one fresh throughout the rotations. Wishful Thinking Reon takes us on a tour towards the dark side, and "Wishful" does not fall short... malevolent, full-on layers collide chaotically and whip up the dance floor into a feeding frenzy of trance energy, perfect for peak hour summertime mayhem. Freaky dissonance recall visions of scary dolls and vulnerable childhood frights and pummel the ego into mental mush White Fluff This ever-evolving musical masterpiece leaves little to be desired, save for wishes for more where this one comes from by the time the last kick fades out. No two loops stay the same for more than a couple of measures, and silky pads and effects caress against acid-drenched stabs in gracious dynamic duality of cyclical sonic energies. Svartalfheimr A deeply rich bass undercurrent is accented mainly by enigmatic percussive breakdowns. Plenty of cornucopiac lo-fi blips cascade from above according to unique accentuations. The percussion section is smooth and stellar throughout this track, whose two very different halves coalesce into a winding journey through the unexpected. Reverse Engineering Reon combines talents with Teknob in this original work which stands alone in a world of excessive genre classification. Deep, tribal, and organic, the housey beat chugs along lazily beneath currents of acid sweeps, glitchy stabs and dissonant melody. Reverse Engineering is music on its own level, as easy to enjoy as it is difficult to categorize Atlandis This ancient anthem of a place before time summons primordial pockets of energetic ooze. These slippery, slimy beats glide through the dance space beings from digital dimensions. From the low rumbling bass to the high resonance of sonar communications, "Altlandis" awakens animalistic urges and out-of-body spatial dance perceptions Dandelion Seeds Another example of Reon's shining versatility, "Seeds" has a killer groove with winding, nomadic trance arpeggio progressions which, quite thankfully are utterly devoid of any cheese. Minimalistic in nature, yet with every sound clean and clear, this track doesn't pass up on a single moment of high psychedelia, a real pick-me-up for sunrise second winds The Nowhere Man This track finalizes this album of superior sonic quality, technicality, and innovation with all the flair and pinache of a grand finale. Reon certainly doesn't slack off on his sound production diligence here. Diesel-powered bass beats, sharp stabs, and anthemic melodies all arranged and masterfully reworked to wind the tension up like a knot rope.

Tribal TUL - Rock In Space This track had changed Tuls life, he had a "matrix" like vision that inspired him to program a space game of endless galaxies, space wars, mysteries and trade, the game "Rock In Space" is still growing and already being played by beta testers around the world. Tribal TUL - Awaking Rave Inspired by the big festivals and raves, made before the Soulclipse festival visioning thousands of people dancing, this is an absolute killer track that awakes a sleeping rave or even an awoken one. Goblin - Bad Trip (Tribal TUL rmx) Inspired by 10th's of times being played by Tul and many times by others in good underground parties, one of Tribal TUL's favorite tracks. Original version was released in "Tribal Maker" compilation in Tribal records. Cosmo vs. Tribal TUL - Papaya Inspired by a very psychedelic atmosphere under a festival, started in Cosmo's studio in Slovakia, continued in Tuls studios in Israel. A very dangerous track for the weak, but a good experience for the strong minded. Tribal TUL - Hallucinate Inspired by those massive dark tracks that take you on a journey in the night in parties, this track tries to light the atmosphere abit but keep you on that journey in the road to hallucinate. Mottil vs. Tribal TUL - Tazke Delo Inspired by Slovakia's festivals in the summer and made in Tuls new studio in Slizke Slovakia, a 270 years old house! a home in the forest that kept them in that tribulic mood. Tribal TUL featuring Hideyo Blackmoon - 5th Element Inspired by the soft chillouts of Hideyo, and her special voice just calling for an opera track. Creating this track, recording in the dark and producing its sounds were an inspiration of its own.

Here is your ticket to a sonic gateway which will enrich and fulfill you once you begin to travel through it. CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Hector The Dark 2. My Music 3. (Out-In) Side 4. iRembrem oGa Track by Track Hector The Dark This ten-minute track, minimalistic, melodic and upbeat, is a lengthy saga of beats and rhythms ranging from the subtle and gentle to the hauntingly angst-ridden. Subtle sonic manipulations, additions and subtractions go a long way to profound musical mood shifts, with myriad waves of high-energy tension and release cycles your mind and body will move to. My Music Touching and graceful, melodies and atonal, resonant frequencies ride atop foundational layers of bouncy bass lines and expertly arranged percussion. Rising rhythms and gated vocal stabs keep the dance floor vibe in constant ascension. An epic breakdown brings things back to a tranquil level before a complete metamorphosis of sound transpires, taking the music in a new direction. (Out-In) Side At once intense and incessantly angsty, the bass beat enters escorted by gutteral, squelchy pads and heavily affected saw tooth melodies. Groovy and danceable, yet energetic and rejuvenating, these positive vibrations make for a perfect soundtrack to summer sunrise audiences. Soft brass bells mark a soothing breakdown breather moment before launching the sound into a new spectrum of tension. iRembrem oGa Steel yourself for a fluid, synapse-startling series of psychosis inspiring wavelengths. Glitchy and very trippy leads headline an eerie sound scape of minor scale synth melodies and Eastern-inspired digital scales. A great set starter and second wind provoker, SCM's fourth track provides the sonic spark to reignite the fire beneath your worn dancing shoes.

  10. Tutankhamon 9000 ~ Lost in Luxor Release date: April 2008 The dark months of the Finnish winter seem to be the breeding ground for productions of equally dark, spiritual, frenetic trance music. In the heart of it all, Helsinki based Space Boogie Productions has been more active than ever, churning out killer releases from European and world favorites such as Troll Scientists, Astroschnautzer and more. Latest, but certainly not least, is "Lost In Luxor" by Tutankhamon, reincarnated nearly nine-thousand years since his latest life cycle to bring usancient rhythms interpolated through fast-futuristic musical technology. Eleven tracks fuel and inspired by the ancient energy of one of the greatest demigods Earth has ever known await you, each one a ticket to a different far-removed audioverse. Tut's supersonic, vibrational proselytizations will be engulfed be trance dancers across the globe and elsewhere this summer, and now is your time to clue in and ride the crest of this raw and relentless wave of trance dance ingenuity. CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Papyrus Paranoia 2. Lost In Luxor 3. Schkitzophrenic Sphinxx 4. Castration In Cairo 5. My Mummy Is A Mummy 6. Dong In A Bong 7. Jesus vs Shitler 8. Nymphomaniac Nefertiti 9. Rambomized 10. A Bulk Of Hulks 11. Tutankhamon 10000 TRACK BY TRACK: Papyrus Paranoia Dark, nighttime trance projecting ominously primordial energy dribbles out of the speakers. Thick pulsating bass grooves are the undertow for currents of twitchy, glitchy layers your brain can barely wrap around. Brilliant bridges and fills along with percussive ceilings provide horizons got this undulatingly mystically malevolent sonic atmosphere. Lost In Luxor Alternating bass and kicks jump right in leading you into a mind-twisting sweep siral which propels the energy immediately skyward. Groovy sixteenth note bass lines hit you where it hurts, and the acid-scathed saw tooth rhythms don't pull any punches either. Excellent bridges and transitions keep the vibrations in constant cyclical convection. Schkitzophrenic Sphinxx Pitch-bent percussive warbles usher in a raw, powerful trance beat. Explosive oscillations accompany gritty squelch rhythms which grind your ego into the dirt you're dancing on. There's tension and release aplenty for all. A drastically entropic breakdown before a complete musical mannerism overhaul, keeping your brain busy throughout its entirety. Castration In Cairo Expertly modulated drum beats fill the initial soundscape, while chunky, raw bass lines get you immediately jumping. The sample arrangements are precise and seamless, with each unique bridge arresting you and opening up for further tension development. Industrial warehouse sounds and more yet-unnameables paint a surreal sonic picture of frenzied abandon. My Mummy Is A Mummy This track with otherwise powerful elements eases into its development subtly, its layers introducing themselves from all directions, making for an interesting interdimensional experience. The bass gets jumpier as the rhythms grow more intense, as angry sounds rip and claw at your consciousness. Tut's stellar modulation talents really stand out here. Dong In A Bong This killer nighttime stomper will be a hit for peak-hour outdoor sets, from the monstrous bass to the crackling mids and highs. The layers seem to ride between the scales, lifting you up as others drive you down. The breakdowns which only make the energetic sessions stand out more. The track is as much of a wave as that which comprises it. Jesus vs Shitler These robotic bleeps and bloops would be sure to inspire short-order psychoses were it not for the expertly quantized drums and bass tethering you together. A squishy, sloppy sound which will be a hit on dance floors and trance spaces makes this piece. Liquidy, glassy sounds scare you and invert your senses in this mind-warper of a trance track. Nymphomaniac Nefertiti Robotic vocals and ethereal cirrus clouds of sound provide the backdrop of seismic bass as frantic musical code reaches you through imaginary tubes of questionably underwater origins. Both mechanically sterile and organically wet and dirty, there are enough musical dualities to appeal to energetic crowds for multiple rotations. Rambomized Malevolent and feral, the furious beats and aggressive leads paint portraits of ancient cosmic rituals and shapeless creatures of the night. With your ego as the sacrifice, these diabolical synths never sound the same for long as they execute inspirationally hedonistic rites upon the dance floor. This one hooks you and refuses you release. A Bulk Of Hulks Part swing beat and part thumping four-on-the-floor, Tut launches you into a synapse-spinning session of sweaty, selfless activity. Glitchy and chaotic, there is enough squishy slurps and acidic static to amp up the energy to higher levels. Drum beats and whumping bass spin off into liquidy, fluidic moments of mental rest before a final explosion. Tutankhamon 10000 Rising up from beneath, these sounds seem to have sprouted from the annals of an unhinges mind, or inimical sentience from unperceivable dimensions. Deep sonar and reverbed clanging and bleeping communicate inexpressible messages of writhing dance trance energy. Ever-mutating layers bear scary senses of detached humanity.

  11. Human ~ Mystical Encounter Release date: 9th April 2008 There are oodles of independent record labels out and about nowadays, many of them little more than vehicles for solo artists to promote themselves, but few of them take the time to express their intent and vision of musical evolution as earnestly and forthcomingly as Human of Switzerland's Fiin Records. Human has long been known in his community as an artist that can express himself through multitudes of musical styles, and it becomes readily apparent in his latest album, "Mystical Encounter". A collection of ten tracks each tell a story of emotion and bring you face to face with what it means to be what, and who, we are. "Mystical Encounter" is a nebulous amalgam of backgrounds, sounds, and influences sewn together by the style of one of the electronic genre's most versatile budding virtuosos, Human. CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Mystical Encounter 2. Sunday Morning 3. Mystical Spaziergang 4. Kim 5. A Trip To Russia 6. Release 7. Back To Humanity 8. The Melody 9. Beauty 10. The Seeker Shall Find Track by Track Mystical Encounter Eerie Autumn nighttime thunderstorms and lilting, Draculesque minor keys usher us into a haunting environment of digital castle labyrinths. Synths duel effected harpsichords atop a funky hip-hop beat. Human gives the "retro" sound a whole new meaning, borrowing from multiple pasts and sprinkling in a few cutting-edge wavelengths in just the right places. Sunday Morning This track is a meaty, minimalistic triplet's based stomper that is jovial and catchy. The acid rhythms aren't too hard, with the whole being solidly musical and melodic. Vintage sawtooths, analog stings, and gossamer pads lift you up with peaceful feelings of love. An all around enjoyable track, fast enough for the dancefloor and easy enough for lazy listening. Mystical Spaziergang Spooky synth strings herald apparitional atmospheres leading into the onset of an antediluvian arrangement of kicks, bass, and low, warm frequencies. Atavistic, corrosive saws tickle your feet into motion. Amorphous bass pulsates throughout the sound spectrum as eerie organs enunciate their orchestration. This is a dark hearted pleaser for your shadowy side. Kim "Kim" picks up the pace and brings in a smooth, groovy bass and tops it off with all manner of gated scale arpeggios. The layers pile on for some nice tension and release moments while the percussion expounds upon itself. Constantly changing melodies and an excellent drum solo make a great breakdown before taking the sound to a higher summit. A Trip To Russia Human's rendition of an ingrained electronica classic gives the piece a refreshing makeover. This artist definitely shows his musical prowess and intuition by improvising upon the melody as the track morphs from an old familiar classic into something different, a bittersweet four on the floor stomper filled with sonic dualities of power, grace, and many others. Release Off-kilter, syncopated breaksy bassbeats inaugurate a session of electronic assonance. Smooth, crisp bass glide you along a funhouse of tuneful rhythm and melody, inspiring tensively conflicting feelings of discordance and well-being. Tear-jerking moments on the piano and rhapsodic arrangements adhere to your ear with an uncanny congeniality. Back To Humanity Dueling piano chords ride along a chunky analog bassline refereed by a Gypsy violinist. Simplistic synth waves stand out against cacophonic, heavily effected speeches expressing a gamut of humanistic aspects. Between the variety of samples and the intricate synth layers allow this track to define its given name with all due appropriateness. The Melody Uptempo and outdoorsy, "The Melody" is fuelled up by furious tribal drum patter and an energetic bassbeat. Metallic sweeps and other industrial sounds add to the mechanical feel of the early stages of the piece. However it's after the breakdown that the sounds really pick up and branch out emotively, playing off each other, pushing the mood further. Beauty This track is a true inspirer of joyous tears of admiration and realization. A great one for sunrise second winds, the musicality of this one lends itself well to the audio pick-me-up. Growing on you at an audible pace, the harder edged elements compliment the anthemy, gentler sonic aspects, all to a minimalistic beat that doesn't cease to bore. The Seeker Shall Find Human's album ends with all the flair of a symphonic grand finale, transporting your mind to imaginative realms of high epic fantasy in a musical composition that defies genre classification in its conglomerational mish-mash of styles and influences that really works.

  13. Dejavoo ~ Future Shock Release date: 4th April 2008 FUTURE SHOCK, The Debut album from Dejavoo, Transient’s latest signing. Spawned from the deepest London underground, Khristian Vinales and Francesco Mura have exploded on to the global scene with huge dance floor killers. Focusing on a techier groove and powerful riffs the boys are now becoming international ambassadors for the newest London sound. Once again the world turns back to London to find why the hottest freshest acts are now emerging from the ashes of the long lost hero’s of the 90’s. This album is set to turn the focus from Israel back to the white cliffs and down into the sweaty clubs of Brixton and Shoreditch. If you havn’t heard the sound of Dejavoo yet, you certainly will have by the end of summer. Enjoy. CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Lone Ranger 2. Imperial Mind 3. Dessert Desert 4. Dragonflingz 5. Hide and Seek 6. Party Deluxe 7. Pacific Run 8. Gravity Affair Track by Track Waiting High-octane bassbeats and catchy, classy synth hits drive the meat of this track. With plenty of digital springs and atmospheric pads keep the energy building, "Waiting" doesn't keep you waiting for long. Plenty of tension and release amongst the many breakdowns, buildups and vocal manipulations, topped with writhing melodic gravy. Loud And Nasty This is one trance track with a bite. A high energy tempo winds the clock tight for a heavy diesel bassline layered underneath a matrix of gritty pads, steadily building blues-tronica melodies and masterfully filtered and phased highs and snares. This is great early peak hour music for when the dancefloor tension really begins to get palpable. Cyclone Expounding on the vibratory moods of its forerunner, "Cyclone is overflowing with intense drum segments and acidic digital squelchwork. There's massive buildup work done to the audio here, and the flow is superbly engineered. A short breather moment in the middle launches you into a thumping full on psy-trance-breaks corkscrew of sound. Versotran Robotic voices whisper through interdimensional sonic gateways as numerically encoded watts of waveforms wind up your mind tighter than a whole night of noncorporeal arboreal stimuli. The short yet sonically rich breakdown does wonders for mood changing and science-fictional aberrational amplitude. This track is a sure-fire wiggle inspirer. Screaming People This techy trance track has more than one touch of spooky horror slipped subliminally into a bouncy groove with plenty of disco-jazz synth hits amid a morphing, hilly bass. A powerful, sweeping melody fades in and out and travels about, taking you places on both physical and mental dancefloors, with a clever percussive breakdown making it even better. A Story This track develops itself slightly more subtly, however with each layer noticeably crisp and clean without a hint of muddiness to be heard. Arpeggiated synth melodies navigate through spectrums of filtration while the bass and percussion play off each other to create plenty of buildups and drops, keeping each element fresh and malleable. Future Shock Taking the music on a deeper, more tribally progressive turn, Dejavoo couples groovy percussive licks with cloudy synth pad strata and a heaving bassline as bouncy as a trampoline. A slightly more relaxed tempo creates plenty of sonic space to enjoy each atmospheric layer and neatly gated rhythm. "Shock" has plenty of pulsating dance flavour. The Preacher Retouching on this album's major motif of killer peak hour trance tunes, "Preacher" hallmarks subliminally eerie warblings and inimical, supernatural rhythms to create moods of uneasiness and distension. Added at the right time into a playlist may induce mass feelings of religious epiphanies by the astute listener delivered by a most unorthodox reverend. Diabolical This final track of Dejavoo's latest album allows for no sense of fatigue or laziness. This electronic sonic motivator provides just what you need to get that second wind into you and propel your feet across your dance place. Key changes amid wet, slippery synthesized squishiness from bass to melody hold the audience in collective trance unison.

No longer is it necessary to spend your days in a leaky (not that it will rain!) tent. Instead why not choose a life of luxury and book into one of our alternative options? At Sunrise Celebration 2008, we will have the following options available. More to be added soon. Pod Pads: - A real, stylish and unique alternative to traditional camping. Pod Pads are built from wood and come fitted with carpeting, interior lighting and internal and external locks. They are weatherproof, soundproof, secure, safe and cosy. Ideal for storage as well! Pod Pads can stand alone or as part of a terrace - so you can stay alongside all your mates! www.podpads.com Tipis and Yurts - The opportunity to try the Tipi and Yurt experience is available through Hearthworks, coordinators of the Global Tipi Village. Tipis and Yurts are traditional nomadic tents, that benefit from spacious interiors, an open fire or wood burning stove, and optional furnishings. Great for families or groups of friends. For details of booking visit www.hearthworks.co.uk Caravans - Caravans are perfect for giving you the comforts of home in a field. Those available will range from two to six berth, ideal for families, and will have the added option of an electric hook-up. These will be available to hire in advance of the event. For enquiries please contact simon@conceptproductsltd.co.uk ------------ We are currently looking at including Myhabs as well. Has anybody got any preferences as to what other accomodation options they may wish to see in the future? I have an inkling that people will be looking for increasingly more robust options than nylon tents to stay in. Hopefully the age of the disposable tent will soon be over... One option we are looking at is bespoke design cabins - either flat-pack build or based permanently on site with wood burners, beds, etc. Would you be interested in such accomodation? Do you prefer nylon tents or will you be looking for other accomodation?
  15. Suns of Arqa ~ Through The Gates We Go Release Date: 25th April 2008 For twenty years since the birth and subsequent worldwide spread of the experimentally oriented genre of downtempo electronic, SUNS OF ARQA has been one of the greatest behind-the-scenes pioneers. Their music is the sum of a vast and widely variable equation of musical connection and imagination. The Arqa story begins in 1979 in Manchester, England, with a man named Michael Wadada, who was destined to mastermind one of the most obscure yet influential acts in the genre to date. Three years after his musical beginnings, Wadada attracted notice from Peter Gabriel, and performed alongside, such varied inventive geniuses as poet John Cooper Clarke, linguist Professor Stanley Unwin, flautist Tim Wheater, Adrian Sherwood and the legendary Jamaican DJ, Prince Far-I, as well as many others. Just over half a decade later, Wadada produced "Land of a Thousand Churches" featuring many of his old musical friends as well as new ones, such as James Young, Helen Watson and afro-jazz star Feso Trombone. This album was in many ways a fusion of the two seemingly different musical and spiritual spheres of the Celtic and Hindu. The results were deemed by many as revolutionary within music and quickly came to be identified with Wadada's pioneering musical style. By the mid-nineties, SUNS OF ARQA was in full swing, having begun to delve into the emerging electronic genres of drum and bass and jungle, dub and others, working with names such as Guy Called Gerald, 808 State, Zion Train, John Leckie, Youth, Muslim Gauze and the infamous Astralasia. The Arqa stage setup was more diverse and worldly than ever before, encompassing sounds of Scottish bagpipes, hurdy gurdy,Indian strings and vocals, reggae percussion, just to name a few. Today, Michael Wadada is still hard at work under the Arqa banner, this time in the studio, delving deeper into the musically yet-unperceived. Having released a slew of albums under various labels, exposing and promoting styles from every corner of the globe into one harmonious amalgam. SUNS OF ARQA’S latest release, a dual disc compilation is compiled TomFu (Liquid Records), who is a very well respected DJ in the UK scene for many years in the downtempo and ethnic scene. The 2 CD compilation contains a mixtures of the sounds which span and define their career to now, all seamlessly blended into a globetrotting safari of eclectic musical fusions and collusions. After almost thirty years of innovations that have truly set this name onto its own level, the future can hold nothing but limitless potential for the genre-bending and genre-forging vehicle known as SUNS OF ARQA.

Kalavati Alap TRACK BY TRACK: Disc 1 Mongolian Lullaby Khoomii throat singing and exotic strings and flutes take you to a place far removed from the stresses of your current latitude, longitude, and elevation. Soothe your mind and lull into the energy of musical gifts from ancient cultures for the modern time. Lama Geshe Your journey continues as the lazily rhythmic drum beats kick in. You sink ever deeper into the sonic folds of mystical chanting and peaceful string layers. Bells signal the approach of deep, earthy dub bass and infusions of synth effects into a nice cool marriage of acoustic harmony. Magiczna Mitose Like a lotus blossom, the audio atmosphere opens up into a middle-eastern hip shaker that makes you want to reach for your hookah and Turkish tea set. Prepare for a magic carpet ride through the sounds of times both long gone and yet to pass. Suns of Arqa charm you like a cobra moving your mind to their hypnotic beat. Lamudia Dub Things start to get a tad bit surreal at the onset of this track. Waves both analogue and digital mix together like colliding cloud layers, and conspire to lift you up to their elevation. Groovy reggae beats tap out staccato rhythms, helping you keep a foot on the ground. The masterful musical progression here makes this musical trip a pleasant inevitability. Off to Pluto Here's musical originality at its finest with Professor Stanley Unwin providing the narrative genius, pure spaced out brilliance! The bansuri, narration, flutes and dub beats make for unlikely bedfellows, but it works. "Pluto" is one to remember, a conglomeration that'll make you snort and chuckle with giddy pleasure. Tarang Before you realise what's just happened, you're immersed in a funhouse of tribal percussion beats, each one playing your neurones like just another instrument in this cornucopia of sound, with thick, gnarly bass conveying you into your future. Govinda's House A brief sargasso of synthesized sound gives you a breather before the next waveform storm. Jamaican-styled beats and rhymes duo with sitars and song from the East, fused together by a gritty industrial bassline. Frequent change-ups keep the sounds fresh and the energy pulsating. Basant Dhrupad Soupy bass and richly filtered, SUNS OF ARQA’s live sound ticks along like a clock while tampura drones and raga vocals melt away its temporal integrity. Each layer of sound seems purely handmade and comfortably organic, indeed, to label it as "electronic" does these sounds an injustice. Durga Dub The woodwind section of this eclectic ensemble joins in to give the audience a moment of reflection as these acoustic rivers bend, taking you to another plane of sound. Relax a moment, close your eyes, and appreciate the cool waters of the flutes, reedy drones and methodical, hypnotic drumming. Rosin + Reed Sample for a moment a bit of gypsy violin... Before long we're greeted by a folksy house beat enriched by plucks and clucks of handmade woodblocks, as our flautist paints a pretty sonic skyscape. Windy oscillations across the panorama juggle your mind about for a moment before the return of sweet Celtic melodies. Through The Gate We Go (Bhairavi Alap intro) A minute's respite to the tune of a string soloist draws the fore curtain for a nighttime outdoor groover. Eerie fae whisperings and Arabian violin form the meat of the melody while a troupe of skilled percussionists lay down an energy collecting framework sewn together by knee-grinding bass lines. This twelve minute voyage has a lot to offer... subtle breakbeat changeups launch what was a chillout space into sexy puddles of hip-grinding mayhem, making this one an energy builder obviously made by true professionals. Misra Pahvadi This downtempo tea party continues with blends of flutes and strings set to a poppy, minimalistic bassbeat fit for induction of visions from behind closed eyelids. Listen and drift along through the waters of seemingly effortlessly calm improvisation masterfully arranged by SUNS OF ARQA. Tomorrow Never Knows Yes it’s the Beatles classic from the Revolver LP! Brit-rock mixes with sounds from the subcontinent and warbled digital pads to reproduce the revolutionary moods of psychedelia and love rooted in our recent past. ‘ARQA gives this seed of retroism their signature futuristic twist and adds enough organic material to make you feel like you're hearing it live. Disc 2 Cradle Diaphanous quavering of antediluvian arpeggios drift through ethereal layers of iaminate stringed instruments. Feelings of hot tea sipped in a sunrise shadowed by the minarets of the Hagia Sophia coalesce in your imagination, while harmony holds your ears in rapture and soothes your stress-ridden brainwaves into calm relaxation. Ageng Mimansa Leisurely composed flute nestles amongst subtle synth pads and sweeps. Cool electric piano chords add touches of atmospheric blues every few moments. The skill and artistry is free flowing in this as in other tracks on the SUNS' latest album odyssey. Cowbellish percussive elements contribute to a sound that makes you forget your current environs. Durga Dub Palatial pagodic tonalities flitter delicately through the background during a cozy drum beat and slightly filtered, alleviating flutes. Old timey stand-up bass plucks away a happy foundation for this eleven minute piece of laid back, mood lightening music. Chilled out to the max, this one's end will leave you reluctant to leave your seat. Whirling Full "Whirling" makes quite a few changeups from the musically drawn out moods before it.This one is all about pitch-bent, cascading synth riffs running the spectral range and scaled to an attenuated, uptempo beat. Energies rise as more musical layers join the circle, including a pillowy dance kick, jazzy flutes, and retro digital effects that are easy yet interesting upon the ears. Bha Ravi (Bharavi Dub intro) Straight to the humid tropics of the subcontinent we go, to bear witness to eerily exotic soloings inducing seldom felt mood changes. Simplistically complex percussion fits right in, making the cluttering of ambiguously every day noises seem so much more surreal. The fusion of seemingly opposite ends of the musical gamut prop open cranial doors to remind you that your hookah has been bugging you for a repack. Drums of barely recognizable origin tilt the musical panorama for a greater perspective of this otherworldly audio tour. Cosmic Jugalbandi remixes (He Did Not Die intro) SUNS OF ARQA presents us on this double CD four different iterations of their esteemed Cosmic Jugalbandi session, with an acquaintive intro appropriate for all takes. Each one is a different slice of sublime divinity and oneness made from the same cosmic batter of sonic elements, arranged and performed to be experienced as one journey through a quartet of digital and acoustic outlooks. Kalavati Alap (Fomorian intro) The SUNS OF ARQA wind down this impressive dual-disc compilation of some of the finest musical expressions, interpretations, and improvisations ever heard in a genre that the group itself began forging three decades ago. A triplet of stringed and blown instrumentals return you gently like a giant invisible motherly hand into your noggin, leaving you relaxed, loose, and refreshed, and reflective upon the whole auditory actuality.

Unstable Elements - Seasons: TRACK BY TRACK: Disc 1 Relapxych.00 - Pharmaceptic (Edit 1) A convergence of harmonic ambient layers passes softly as ephemeral cloudwork, shifting fronts between the idyllic and the eerie. This opener track expresses a certain duality in atmospheric music, shifting the poles of mood changing sounds in a slow, yet regular oscillation, taking your mind to distant places both above and below. Senzar - The Red Water This triptastic pieces offers up a hearty slice of spooky chilout beats consisting of eclectic, experimental percusssion, dissonant electric chords and sounds from midnight fens and boglands. Scary voice samples kick in at just the right time to grab your attention and raise some hairs, providing perfect atmosphere for nocturnal summertime outdoor happenings. Electrypnose - Eternal Sunset Undulating and metamorphosing electronic arpeggios make up the meat of this chiller, and in true Electrypnose style, there is plenty of sonic wildlife in the bacground for you to enjoy as the drums and rhythm propel you along. highly spaced out and faintly on an optimistic note, in short "Sunset" is a vehicle through an astral audioverse safari. Ovnimoon - Magical Visions Deep male Middle Eastern mantras, familiar yet no less emotive in an entirely different sonic context, lead us through the curtain of guitar and squishy synth sound inspired ambient track. Touches of deep, dubby bass and harmonic vox pads are layerd on thickly and form a superb binding agent for these masterful electrostrings sounds. A-Kara - Evil Shamans The name is misleading, while primal and heavily tribal this track does feel, not a hint of sonic malevolence can be heard in these waves. Relaxing, filterd drums beat away a steady rhythm for sawwed synth pads and woodwinds to build themselves upon. This track has plenty of shamanistic quality albeit serene and uplifting. Khooman - Dakhara This track represents the soundtrack to an inimical alien ecology. Familiar sounds are incorporated into strange musical contexts. The results are audio bliss your ears will enjoy. Cascading chimes, woody reeds and vocal drones perforate effects-laden synthm permutations all to a soft drum beat that makes you feel both at home and far removed. Xerxes - One-Oh-Three This dubby track takes you on a lazy journey atop the slippery terrain of rich, pitch-glided bass. Heady clouds of thick synth fog fill out a highly original and enjoyable flute solo that precipitates tears of musical joy throughout the chillspace. Overall a great progression from formless audio primordialism to highly refined beats and tones. A.I.A. - Signals & Systems Sitars, harmonic percussion, and what must be the song of humpback whales from outer space drape around a filtered two step dub beat. Softly squared arpeggios add a bit of retro flavor as phaser-laden effects and layers drift along with the grace of a warm front. Eventually the myriad layers congeal into a chariot ferrying you from your mortal coil. Grains of Sound - Meridian Music of this genre need not be always happy and gleeful. In fact, some of the best tracks touch upon some of the darker human emotions, and in so doing sink your mind deep into your spiritual core. "Grains" falls into that category, with lonely hand drums, somber mystical chanting and sound waves which subtly cause you to mentally breathe along with them. Chronos - Spiral Clouds This track is hyperbolic to its predecessor. Expert manipulation of vocal samples accompany a groovy, eclectic beat. Aboriginal woodwinds writhe in the backgrounds of synths that feel elastic and nomadic. This track exemplifies the sort of highly organic electronica that people take heart to, melding soulful analog with the precise nature of the digital into a superb audio duality. Disc 2 Unstable Elements - Escape (Intro) More like telepathic communication than traditional music, the ethereal tones of "Escape" are just what your brain needs to open its doors to the previously imperceptable and appreciate the message that is to come. Capsula - Capsula This track has so much to offer its audience. Syncopated high hats tap out eclectic, off-kilter rhythms while echoed, bittersweet melodies arrange themselves atop a thick bass substratum. Harmonic layers preach nonverbal sermons of acceptance and forgiveness, and the shear delight is an edgy gated groove adding extra octane to the dancefloor. Chronos - Solar Movement (Paleolithic Edit) Picking up the tempo with a hearty breakbeat, "Solar" is chock full of chunky, pneumatic electro-mayhem hammering out gliding melodies. A quasi-Gothic fusion of styles, from Transylvanian organ to gritty synth rhythms make this one a great kick start to a groovy playlistbest enjoyed on your feet at maximum wattage. Kane and Echoside - Thoughtless Hugh all that mental chatter for a moment and let Echoside and Kane take you where you know you want to go. Chunky beats square off against a hungry bassline chomping unseen at your heels. Indian tablas coerce a human snake dance out of the audience as thick layers of bubbly sound effects roll in low and ominous as a monsoon thunderhead. Kickbong - Vague à L'âme Spaced out harmonic alignments build up sad, sultry moods according to a minimal wood-block breakbeat. Sexy female vocals play off of a key-keeping dub bassline. Orbitally oscillating synths tap out leads which fill out the sensually sad and longingly desirous mood of this expertly arranged but of musical art. Dagas- Green Moss This sleek dubstep track puts a little spring into your step. Pitch bent santerns percolate atop simplistically groovy bass/snare duo befoure launching into a full-blown percussive groover, and the electronic elements are rich and full. Expect to see scenes of undulating navels and heady hookah scents shortly after "Green" makes waves on the playlist. Zoe Wheelingz - Synthetic River This tribal track is an assortment of rapidly changing sounds and effects making the most out of key switching and pitch manipulation to induce the urge to groove. To assign moods to the way this music feels would be an injustice; "River" would simply be too far out there, were it not for grounding, soothing keys and lyrics peppered with silver flute. Ovnimoon vs Dagas - Southern Wind Picking up the tempo a notch, Ovnimoon and Dagas make a second appearance on this compilation with asyncopated bass groove laden with clicky plucks and twisted synths. Bubbly pads and gated arpeggios switch gears in both directions which lend to some great tension-release moments which all great music should inspire to incorporate. Yestegan chaY - Unleaded Part ancient Egyptian, part interstellar mothership, "Unleaded" features a charmer of a synth flute and a bassline carved out of granite. A variety of instruments compose quite an ensemble for this dubstep track that's unlike any other. With influences spanning both time zones and decades, this music makes the most out of subtlety and space. Zonetura - Unreal A Carribean-esque steel xylophone melody patters out a unique intro to an imaginative track so rife with childish innocence, it's actually a little bit disturbing. With analog-sounding grooves and bass this rich, you'd think nothing else is needed, but there are plenty of surprises to be enjoyed in these sounds, electronica in a style all its own. Unstable Elements - Seasons This double album of downtempo goodness ends with a masterpiece minimalistic in nature with the intricately manipulate percussion being the resounding exception. No two hits seem alike as this musical fabric changes in stitch with the collodially thick bassline being the near-only constant; all layers build and build into ten minute audio odyssey.

AMK ~ On The Way Release date: March 2008 Headed by regionally recognized artist and DJ, Mangan, AMK's musical idiom is a fusion of tribal, progressive and psychedelic sounds into a spiritual medium called music, and creating cutting-edge, futuristic tunes using ancient methods and influences is their specialty.

CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Magic Bus 2. Neuro 3. Rubino 4. Future Groove 5. Narayana 6. On The Way 7. Free Your Soul 8. Endless Night TRACK BY TRACK: Magic Bus AMK's opening track begins with a jaunty bassbeat, luring you in subtly with gradually introduced layers and percussion. Before long, foggy synth pads and elevated acid rhythms fill the rest of the audiospace while the percussive layers begin their metamophosis. By the second half of the piece, the mood and flavor have suspended your senses far from the ground. Neuro This piece adds a hearty chink of tribalesque sounds into its mix. Deep bass and kicks accompany aboriginal shaker, bongo and didjeridoo sections. The atonality spaces your brain out enough to appreciate the gated trance rhythms and electric piano bits that follow, masterfully filtered and arranged. This piece shepherds you from the light to dark like a witnessed sunset. Rubino This is at once a great nighttime track for mixing into peak-hour approaching dancefloor playlists. Uptempo, beginning on lilting, minimalistic atmospheres, the percussion leads you further into the music. Like a flower, the disconnected, dissonant sounds open up into a subdued yet sublimely gossamer melody making "Rubino" a solid trance uplifter. Future Groove AMK ladles out some highly superior sounds in this track. A bass rhythm more felt than heard lay the foundations for spaced-out, nomadic effects which pave the way for some meaty, intricate percussion. The drums take the helm here while squishy, colloidal synth waves act as the binding agent for a groovetastic footmover made to please your ears. Narayana "Naranya" is a candy bowl of a track which contain all the good parts of tribal acid trance. These beats are dark and deep and each drum layer adds dimension and space in all seeming directions. Squishy, resonant acid leads jump back and forth like sparks on a conductor, fueling a bassline with more chugs in it than a choo-choo train. On The Way An intro riding the border between the astral and the alien grabs your brain by the seat of its pants. Elements of old-school Goa beach trance make their presence heard; Eastern melodies and vocals make this track into tribal trance with a spicy, psychedelic twist... and twisting is just what your body will do when it hears this music at elevated amplitudes. Free Your Soul AMK really explore the depths of their creative talent with this piece... coming at you low, slow and sinister, a steady rhythmic beat with droning pads and light touches of ghostly melody. Steel yourself and get in the groove in this tension-building track that lets you forget your surroundings and awakens dancefloor fantasies. Endless Night Aptly named, this one is a sort of odyssey of musical moods. Carrying along with the themes set by its predecessor, AMK combines organic junglish noises with pleasureable electronic melodies and catchy percussive beats. Prepare for a non-linear vibe-changing soundtrack and talisman to inner journeys and connections with your living musical environment.

  21. Review by Roberdo / Chaishop. It seems to be a proven fact that women are more emotional then men. This can be watched in many different everyday situations but also when it comes to music. The name of this CD promises some Sexy Secret- this name in combination with the fact that its obviously from a lady named Nina made me kind of excited when I put it into the player. I love CDs with nice intros. First point for this release for the first track is a pretty short but pretty nice intro. It already gives an pretaste of the very sophisticated musical level of this record. The first Sexy Secret revealed after that is that Nina likes it hard- Full On! The basslines are very clean-produced and absolutely driving, definitely moving asses. After a short while I realize what I already mentioned in the beginning: Its very emotional music. A lot of elaborated melodies create a spacey , always a little melancholic atmosphere. I myself love the choral samples in “Anger In Heaven” for example, creating kind of end-time atmosphere. This is perfectly complemented by a lot of science fiction vocal samples. So the second Sexy Secret we learn is that this lady likes it definitely spaced out. The tracks are pretty variating, reaching from rather minimal, sound fx focoussed tunes to acid drenched, almost a little rave styled tracks. But they are never overloaded or kitschy. Rapidly variating emotions of the different tracks distiguish this CD from a lot of male productions. Sexy Secret no. 3: Variation makes it. The CD includes a very extensive booklet featuring 4 small essays and 2 poems by Nina. A pretty nice bonus of this album, definitely worth reading. They are not really about Sexy Secrets but more of philosphical and and meditative nature. Although I am not the biggest Full On freak alive I really like PsyNina´s Sexy Secret. The atmosphere is really psychedelic, blasting you to outer space in this certain moments… And the album offers a pretty huge variation of different tracks. I am looking forward to listen to PsyNina´s tunes on a huge soundsystem with few lights!
  22. VA ~ Flying High :: Pukka Music Release date: 13th March 2008 London based psychedelic trance label Pukka Music has a vividly defined vision: to promote high art and music within an underground setting. To the largest extent possible, the label has lived true to their ideals, bringing some of the most dedicated artists, both established, veterans and otherwise, under one banner, and consistently have showcased the fruits if their artists' passions; music forged from the spirit of the past infused with the potential of the present. Their latest compilation, "Flying High" is their newest achievement, and with resounding success. If it is possible for music to bring you both backward and forward in time within the present moment, this is it... each of these nine dancefloor smashers is served to perfection, with sounds innovative enough and production masterful enough for the whole world to get a kick out of. "Flying high" and its artists are prime examples of the evolutionary bettering going on within the world’s music, and you'll soon hear for yourself exactly why. CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Ellis Vanghoul - In My Laboratory 2. Rinkadink - Marauder (M-Theory Rmx) 3. Madnetic - Dreaming 4. Painkiller - Smokey Smoke Machines 5. Eskimo vs Vlado - 'Ave Summa That 6. Exodus - Let It Roll Ice Man 7. Ahara - Surfing The Kuxan Suum 8. Rumble Pack - Distorted Mind 9. Alternative Control - Soft TRACK BY TRACK: Ellis Vanghoul - In My Laboratory Gritty industrial drumwork collides with a chunky bassline fitting for the introductory vocal mashups. Vanghoul does great work in producing music sure to quicken the pulses of the most discerning listening audiences. Replete with atonal synth squirts and plenty of subtle psychedelic layers, "Laboratory" has all the elements of a twisting psytrance thumper. Rinkadink - Marauder (M-Theory Rmx) M-Theory's remix of a classic track by one of psytrance's most notorious veterans does plenty of justice to the original piece. As space-age and science-fictional as one could expect from to artists such as these, "Marauder" is funky, salacious and full of vibe. Superbly subtle jazz theory applied to digital sounds add a refreshing flavour all its own. Madnetic - Dreaming Perfect outdoor peak-hour tunes are what to expect here. Stretched, tweaked-out modulations accompany far-eastern old school melodies make for a full-on genre spanning rocker which grounds you to the dancefloor and skyrockets your mind to the ionosphere. "Dreaming" is a thrilling roller-coaster ride through the frontiers of trance inducing audio science. Painkiller - Smokey Smoke Machines Painkiller is back with a new track, and his current musical genius leaves nothing else to be desired. Dripping, colloidial pads drape about prickly, corrosive rhythms like alien energy curtains while the bassline foundation keeps things moving and the mood changing. "Smokey" is a track best enjoyed outdoors, ideal for those energetic twilight sessions. Eskimo vs Vlado - 'Ave Summa That This galvanic piece by Vlado and Eskimo swings with the force and energy of a wrecking ball, a relentless ego crushing wall of psychedelic sound which deserves to be heard many times to fully appreciate its intricacy. The surprising change-ups and reworkings of the myriad sound layers from the bottom up are especially fascinating. Exodus - Let It Roll Ice Man Crisp, filter-swept arpeggios grace the entryway for a hectic, key changing bassline which keeps you on your toes and puts the whole track into a constant flux. The tension and release moments carry all the enthusiasm of a toddler discovering rubber bands, with a potential for frenzied dancing enough to make bunny-hoppers out of the most jaded. Ahara - Surfing The Kuxan Suum This track is soothing and inspiring at the same time, ripe with lush pads and paradoxically hard-edged digital riffs which go together with uncanny harmonic bounciness. Masterful tribal percussion goes head to head against inimical, predatory synth chitterings, all summing up to a thick, malevolent track bent on getting you deep into its groove. Rumble Pack - Distorted Mind Winding things up towards the optimistically melodious is this newest piece from budding trance artist Rumble Pack. Subtle Israeli club land influences help give this one more of a morning feel, with uplifting crescendos and sweeps easing the listener into dawn lit dance hours with the grace and tenderness of a young loving mother. Alternative Control - Soft Progressing nicely from its predecessor on the album's playlist, "Soft" carries a distinct dawn's edge while retaining a chunky bassline. Delicate, delayed melodies which hammer your synapses like piano strings and adjust your brain waves to yet more rejoiceful moods. This piece has a definite sense of motion and journey from start to finish.

  23. Sabretooth ~ Sabretooth Release Date: 18th January 2008 For many years now, privileged (some say "spoiled") UK electronic music fans have been hearing Ben Fraser's music and name, and rightly so... in his fifth year of both producing and performing live trance and techno acts tirelessly across the UK and elsewhere, the industrious musical talent has gone on to debut his dark, driving vision of psytrance. "Sabretooth", the self-titled album, is music not to be brushed off... indeed, eleven raw, emotive psytrance stompers await your listening pleasure, built for your enjoyment by the dreams of one of the UK's most knowledgeable, hard-working, and passionate producers, Ben Fraser as "Sabretooth". CLICK BELOW FOR SOUND SAMPLES 1. Smooth Hound 2. Curve Ball 3. Spy Trance 4. Afterburner 5. Subalias 6. Conga Eel 7. Bull Roarer 8. Moonstomp 9. Screwdriver 10. The Epiphany 11. Sub Mission TRACK BY TRACK: Smooth Hound Opening with effervescent intonations and ethereal pads, the beat soon kicks in nice and full-on while hauntingly ancient spellsongs cloud the upper sound levels. Each layer introduces itself gradually, sounding low, thick and raw, making for great psytrance progression with wavelike buildups, breakdowns and unexpected twists and turns. Curve Ball Alliterative percussion pass through curtains of filtration before contorting into a deep bassline laden with buttrocking guitar wails and meaty synth squelches. This track is uptempo and psychedelically melodic, using innovative scales to produce harmony amongst atonality. Prepare for some unforeseen turns in this trance dancefloor monster. Spy Trance Get your top-secret groove on with this four-on-the-floor remake of the classic Double-O's sexy theme music. Bouncy bass and sinister digital whisperings whip up a stiff cocktail of a track for the discriminating fan who like their sounds shaken, not stirred. Afterburner Off-kilter tribal percussion and a diesel-powered bassline formulate the foundations for sultry, multi-layered kneegrinding psytrance- perfect in the wee hours before dawn either inside or out. Progressive melody and grated distorted synths fuse with a blistering acid line to create a rising energetic track. Subalias This dark techtrance track is your ferryman to the audio underworld, a shadowy acoustic environment where sound becomes sight and malevolent vibrations pass through you, jiggling your atoms. Thick, meaty synthwork gets the dancefloor bubbling, as layers of tones fill the aural backdrop. Conga Eel "Conga Eel" takes its predecessor a step further. A notch more spooky and tribal, Sabretooth's sense of vocal funk shines amidst feral nighttime beats and drum rhythms. As catchy and danceable as it is hair-raising and sinister, this track goes out of its way to keep you locked to the dancefloor. Bull Roarer A soul-quenching intro, inspired by dreamy sounds from down under, pave the way for a low groove that arrests your attention from the getgo. A veritable frontier of fascinating sounds await you in this piece, with subtle hints of melody keeping your interest on the dancefloor, adding subtle hints of retro groove amongst the digital, techy soundscape. Moonstomp This is definitely one for the peak hours of those beloved outdoor nighttime sessions... malevolent atmospheres add space and dimension to a beat that chugs along with the melodies which flow above it. Sounds are getting sucked into themselves before inversely imploding as techtastic sawwaves and acid cut through the music like hot digital knives. Screwdriver This crisply clean track fuels your feet and fills you up with bass more felt than heard. The percussion is superb, effects-laden and never sounds the same exactly twice. Every sound takes on a clear, definitive contribution to the overall track as the bassline drives away. The emerging synth eventually churns-up a euphoric melody and key-change fit to blow any dancefloor to pieces. The Epiphany Both Sabretooth's innovative creative skill and beloved influences show here, a track merging the old-school acidic melodies mixed with uniquely masterful buildups and breakdowns to sum up to an instant classic track born to blow minds globally. Well put together and filled with soaring energy, "The Epiphany" is aptly named, indeed. Sub Mission So many albums nowadays feature a token psychedelic dubstep track at the end, but to simply write this one off as such would be an ignorant tragedy and a travesty. "Sub Mission" is ripe for the picking with skanking horns and cavernous bass- both clean and masterfully filtered to produce a deeply satisfying chill-out track.
