  1. Im don't think ! One with Progressive & Psychedelic trance would be cool, but I understand there's some work to do and we're not that much playing the game
  2. He indeed will need that . edit : since I learnt "indeed" word only since few days, Im really happy I could place it somewhere
  3. Yes of course, they deserve much respect, then of course this is their choice. I think now if an artist want to survive with the music he produce without releasing shity full on that look more like electro house than full on, he need to first make free release in order to get some reputation and get known, and than he may start producing commercial release.
  4. @K-BAN (Lol did you know when you pronounce it with high voice it means somethings in french ?) I actualy really wanted to talk about unexpected remix. Nice track from Prosper anyway, very melodic ! @Shpongled247 That was exactly the kind of thing I was talking for...Remix that no one would ever except . The first one I just don't like it much, I means or I listen to full on, or I listen to the original one. The second I don't know...The mix of both sounds is nicely done but then it's not exceptionnal.
  5. I totaly agree with it. However they must be some exception though... Who does not know "Mahadeva" from Astral Projection by example ?
  6. Well dude there's so many stuff to listen in the psychedelic genre ! I try to be up to date by listening new psychedelic release, so lastly Im following the Neogoa label. I try to listen to what I didn't listen to before, it means old release : by example, 2-3 week ago I listenend to the whole album "Radio" from x-dream. I didn't like it much but at least I've take a hear at this and now I know a bit more x-dream and how they sounded in the past... I also need a lot of time in order to listen to what I already know & got on my Ipod touch...I don't see any interest in downloading / buying a track if you only listen once. There is very few artist that I heard everything he did. I think I heard easily 85% of what Jaia officialy released. maybe even 90%. This is my favorite artiste so if he release a new album out, I will directly go and take a listen to this. @Manuser No I actualy think people can find artist & title even on prog & psy trance stuff (but not dark psytrance ! Would be damn too hard !), as long as you select well known track.
  7. You means easy for you you dude....Althought I know Etnica, pleiadians, electric universe, space tribe and mfg, and I know at least 1 or 2 track from them, im far away to know every track by them. Seriously, would be funny to do a round with progressive & psytrance, I wonder if people would guess as much track as in this round...But not with oldschool psytrance like kokbox of x-dream
  8. Because I only listen goa trance for a bit more than 2 years...Im born in quite same time as goa trance is born : 1993...So when most of the track you find on this game have been released, I was still a little innocent baby ehhhh We should do the same game but with some Progressive & full on stuff, would be funny to see how many track people would find !
  9. Is there any goa or psytrance remix that you never would except when listening to any album ? A good example for me is this :
  10. There's also this one : Atma - The secret of meditation There's someone that sell it for 75 euros (= 92 CHF)
  11. Definitly easier then the previous one, since I got a lot more points this time ! I've only 14 points If I counted well.
  12. Information : Artist : Atma Title : Music Revolution Label : BMSS Records Date : 25 November 2011 Genre : Psy-trance Tracklist : 1. The Outer Limits 2. Freedom 3. Forbidden Paradise 4. Music Revolution 5. Disturbing Silence 6. Into the Void 7. Space Conquest 8. It's Time 9. When We Dream 9. The Guide Review : The well known Atma, who already released two great albums, come back in november of 2011, with a new album called "Music Revolution". After two such good albums, it's useless to say that a lot is waited on this third release. New Album, so new label, this time it's the turn of BMSS records. Will Atma keep the level high and offer us great space-themed track ? Let's see... The Outer Limits The song start with some kind of guitar notes, which isn't common for an Atma's track. Then comme the kick with a nice bassline, always powerfull and dynamic, like you can hear in most of song from Atma. As most of Atma's song, this track got a space-themed. It use background tune in order to give the track a nice atmosphere. You can hear the guitar's note though the whole song; it's simple but it sounds nice. Then come a nice melody at 3:49 ; it only last a short time at each end of beat, but it's very nice tune. The melody at 5:27 isn't especially good but it isn't neither bad. It's getting better at 5:52 when this get more developped, with the other tune in backgroud playing back. A good song, not exceptionnal, but surely not a track who include "cheesy" melodies ! Freedom : Here again, short introduction, and then another nice kick accompanied with pretty good bassline. At start, the background tunes doesn't sound good at all. It sound strange, but fast come a nice synth lead at 1:09. Here again, the main melody is made with guitar notes, which are nicely edited, so it does still sound like if it were coming from another planet, like I said at multiple time in my review of second album of Atma. Then come the first voice sample of the album, and everything goes on again with kick and bassline : just damn it that there isn't a long ascent for this like most of the track from previous album had. I don't like much the melodies coming later, however I do love those violins lines at 4:52, played in background. It fits the song very well ! However, the extended version of the tune at 5:18 is very bad, it doesn't sound well at all ! Fortunately, the following tunes make this track better. Not my favourite one of the album, and it miss of some nice ascents and breaks, but the use of violin is original. Forbidden Paradise : One of my favourite track of the album ! The rythmic is great. Melodies are very nice, by moment they sound very soft and relaxing, and by other moments they sound very powerful. But best part is 2:00, what a great break, and what a wonderful guitar melody ! No doubt, this is Atma at his best. We have our great break from last album back in this one too, on this track, and then Atma just give all the elements he got to create another great, spacey themed and powerfull track ! There's nothing else to say, it's one of my favourite Atma's track for sure ! Music Revolution : This song as a basic kick and bassline, however it as some nice and fast tunes, that you can clearly hear at 1:26. This is a much more progressive track than the other one, and this is due to the fact that thought this whole song there's mutiple breaks & ascents nicely done. However, this track is missing a nice main melody. Damn it, because there were all the elements needed in order to build up a nice final tune. One of the worst track of the album, it isn't very good but it's still correct. Disturbing Silence : Again a song with fast tunes in background. It does sound very space-themed, with those strange tunes playing in background. Some nice chorus voice in background at 3:11 give this track a nice atmosphere. And that's almost all. No main melody, not much other sound added after middle of the track except the extended version of the chorus voice and some voice samples. Worst track of the album. Into the void : After two disappointing track, we want to hear something good. Into the void start with a sample, quickly propulsed with a classical kick and bassline. The background tunes that follow are good and preview a better song than the last one. The whole thing is well structured, with by example a good break at 3:49. And at 4:40, it's there, a nice melody, sounding good. Then it's cutted down and it only re-appear at the end of the track, which suck ! Atma could have use this melody in a better way. Anyway this is still a quite good track, who is much better than the 2 previous one. Spacey Conquest : Another one of my favourite track from this album ! There's a nice introduction, then come a loud kick with pretty good bassline. Background sounds are good. Then there's a very nice break, who has very soft and deep tunes at same times. The voice sample coming next fits very well the track. After that, a little ascent, and here we go with a nice melody, at 3:29. It does sound a little bit cheesy, but it's not that bad. What I love in this track are the break, like at 4:36. In this last one, there's some very nice sample and background tunes, later accompanied with nice synth note. This whole stuff is leading to a very nice song. It's Time : This song contains synth notes, later accompanied with pretty violin tunes. There's so many different elements included in this track, like chorus vocals in background or electric guitar melodies later in the song. The whole thing is played with a good kick and bassline, structued with nice ascents and breaks, making of this track another good one of the album ! When We Dream : I like a lot the very clear and soft tune played at the beginning of the song. There's some nice piano notes, but it doesn't fit enough with the rest of the song, like at 2:22. It perpetually evolve and this could be good for a solo, but as I said, it's not enough mixed with the other sounds. At 3:50, we got a strange tune playing, accompanied then with a nice synth, in order to achieve a nice ascent. It's only at 5:33 that the song is getting better, keeping the piano note but escorting it with great synth notes who perfectly fit the track and give to the song a great final melody. An okay track, could have been better if piano notes fitted the rest of the song in a better way. The Guide : I would never think about finding....a downtempo song as last track of the album ! But that's it ! Atma is giving a try at a downtempo track, and that's exceptionnaly good ! I don't think I ever heard something near to ambient or to downtempo from Atma. He always use to have heavy kick with nice bassline. And in this track, he can't neither use heavy kick neither powerfull bassline in order to make the job. The rhytmic of the track sound like some drum n bass stuff, but the background tunes are very good : it make of this track something space-themed. Melodies are there, like by example at 2:52, and they sound very well ! We got a nice break a 3:32, and then you got this wonderful violin tune in background at 3:52. There's some sound that even remind me about the album "Unearthly", from "Ra", like the one at 4:42. At 6:35, there's this great melody, probably the best one of the whole album, who does sound very goa-like, with this I don't know what of psytrance, giving back this tune something space-themed. Best track of the album for sure ! Overall : What an album we got there ! On one hand, we got some spacey-themed track, which have wonderful melodies and nice structures, with several breaks & ascents. The last track is just amazing, because of two reasons : first because it's first time we hear something downtempo from Atma, second because this is greatly done ! On the other hand, we got some medium track, who always lack of something. Sometimes it miss a main melody, and sometimes there's some tunes which does sound ok but there isn't the ascents and breaks needed to build this correctly ! Compared to his last album, Atma offer us a less regular performance : in his last album, almost every track were good. In this new one, there's only a few tracks that sound very good. Most of them sound correct and two of them are even bad. In overall, this isn't a bad album from Atma. It's a good one, who contains track with great melodies and a excellent downtempo track. However, there's also a lot of average stuff. If your an Atma's fan, I can only advice you to listen to the full album. If you're not, well I would tell you that you shouldn't attempt listening to as much good track as you used to in Atma's previous album. Cheesy ? How did you find previous album from Atma then ? Sure, this album isn't as good as his previous one, but until say that "this is full-on to be bone", this is much more than underrated ! You wrote most of the review of this forum, and I read several of them. I've a lot of respect for what you did. When you needed to be severe, you were, like when reviewing Scope from Magneto. But why beeing so hard on this release, when Atma offer us a great downtempo track ? I can't see any connexion between Atma last album and stuff from AudioTec or DNA. It's always the same recipe as in previous release : loud kick, nice bassline, and great melodies, the whole thing structured with break and ascent. Best track : 3, 7, 9 Worst track : 4, 5 Rating : 7/10 To buy it : Discogs Psyshop Beatport
  13. We dont dislike it. We just hate shity fullon. Completly different. When it sound and it is good, we also love to listen to it
  14. Ektoplazm is something just great. There's digital release with high quality files for free, which is great. It isn't commercial and it sound very good, I like a lot of stuff from there. It contains many Psychedelic genre, such as Ambient, Psytrance, Goa trance and even Psychedelic Techno (just discovered it now, it's cool !).
  15. Eeh sorry the link went down very fast I don't know why.
  16. No problem dude, I fall on this song by chance and I was like "Hmm, those shity full on gonna be good for Padmapani !" Haha. And then I took a look at whole album...And damn it it's very bad lol.
  17. Well, look like the link is dead :S The track were "The outer limits", from Music Revolution album, by Atma.
  18. @FatKidWitAJetPak : As I said, it's a lot a matter of taste for such an album. it's very (very !) melodic, and althought I do love melodic goa trance and nitzhonot, I can say also that it weren't my cup of tea. But your review is great and you don't have to justify for giving a 10/10, Im sure you wouldn't have given such a note if you thought the release didn't deserve it. That's what is happening to me with last album of Atma, Music revolution. I haven't started my review on it, but I planned to do, because I liked a lot the tracks of the entire album, that I played a few time. Analyzing every track more deeper, I slowly come to the conclusion that except some songs of the album, it isn't as good as his older stuff.
  19. Manuser, I think the track you shared is a very nice one, however it's not one of my favourite. I means I like it for sure, very nice, very soft and relaxing, you know...A bit like "mai mai" from Jaia...However I rather Mai mai from Jaia . Yes I think I mentioned this track like 5-6 times in this forum, but It's for me one of the best goa trance track ever made. But after all, it's also a question of taste. There's a lot of great goa music, it's your personnal opinion that act a lot then =)
  20. Well you're not hitting it . It isn't Logic bomb neither Chromosome, but thank you for your participation ! I've to say that this isn't one of the most known track from the artist, neither not from his most appreciated album !
  21. Okay, thanx for the information In my personnal case, I've heard multiple time about the TB 303...but never about the TR-909 except in this thread
  22. A little psychedelic trance game You have to find out the artist and the track's name of the following song : Here is it Good luck !
  23. I do love a lot of full on. But there's some stuff I simply can't stand. An example ? This fucking crappy commerical shit, other said, last album "Reunion" from Peplex . I could not even listen to the whole album. I've listened to 3 track, but Im convinced the whole album is filled of same kind of shity track than the one I heard. Perfect example of worst full on, when you're taking the worst of electro house and you're including it in some full on tunes. Enough said
