  1. My copy of the Deflon track just cuts out suddenly, no fade at all. Really frustrated my listening experience so I ripped the cd & removed it completely. It's such a shame, surely during the mastering period they could've organized a slow fade out of some kind for 10-15 seconds. Also the ambient titled last track on disc 2 is really weak, it sounds like what I used to joke around making back in early '00s, maybe I could get some of my old rubbish released?

     

    Other than this issue it's a great compilation, and compared to say Goa Trance revolution I much prefer having the old school sounds completely seperated from the new school sounds. Looking forward to where Zion goes from this. The Kingdom is by far still my fav release.

  2. I can see you're point, the lyrics dot grab me a huge amount, but the music is quite good for what it is. The other groups you listed I'm not much in to, industrial type music & EBM is not something I was ever tempted to really delve in to. It never got "big" in Australia or at least the Australia I grew up in.

  3. It's a nice book IMO, and well done for a scene that not very cohesive globally. I enjoy the art in it, the articles are ok but nothing mind blowing. It'll sit nicely in my book collection, and many will no doubt look or ask questions. I'd definitely like my son to read it when he grows, as I want him to have an interest in areas outside of everyday society.

  4. Was my birthday recently, budget is tight so just had a nice dinner but as I come from a large family sibling do a Kris Kringle for gifts. I am happy to have gotten a 2 year hard copy subscription to Sound On Sound magazine :)

     

    Also from my folks got a copy of Ableton Live 9, enrollment in a short course on Ableton Live and a pair of ATH-M50 headphones.

     

    Makes life a bit easier, now my savings can go to a good sound card & midi keyboard.

  5. My son is napping, so I'm listening to Tribal Encore again on headphones and surfing the web. His sleeping pattern has changed in the last week so I realized today I need to start going to bed a lot earlier. It will make my day more pleasant as its much harder to enjoy time with a little person who can barely speak when you feel sleep deprived.

  6. I just have to say a really big wow & thank you to this label. This is the compilation I've been waiting for more tha decade to come out. It's deep, dark and very psychedelic.

     

    I am so proud to own this, and I cannot stop listening. It's pure magic. I cannot wait for more releases to come out. I really am grateful for all the hardwork the Anjuna team has put in to this.

     

    Well done!!

  7. Never ever got in to full on enough too buy albums although I ind the early Nomad, Absolum & Takamasca albums to be quite good. When I feel the urge for full on I just have the TIP World compilation like the "Nations" series, Dimitri's DAT Bag etc.

     

    A bit old but they're pure quality IMO.

  8. You said it very well, I was a hater of the minimal & prog sound in the early '00s as it wasn't psy/goa enough but as I started to mature and validate the music on its own merits rather than as part of the goa scene I now find that music to be some of the most technically proficient of all EDM. Paps was & is amazing to listen to, and I'd love to see a label reissue his works as an album. Especially if the original recording could be remastered from the source by a proficient masterer.

  9. Used to enjoy them but grew out of them. It was the Hostel ones that told me it was time to give up, they were just so pathetic in every way possible.

     

    I much prefer my Cannibal Corpse collection for horror themes than movies. I don't think it suits trance much, just like the demonic stuff that's been done doesn't either. There's nothing psychedelic about horror, I saw The Exorcist reissued in a cinema years back on psychedelics & it was not triply at all. I just laughed so hard my face hurt for the next month!
