  1. lol. There is nothing space about it nor is it dark. Have you listened to what is real dark or space ambient? When I talked to Steve himself asking for music to help me through a major anxiety disorder meltdown his words were @these albums are some of my least dark, and more focussed on the organic nature of sound rather than drones, voids and space".

    I'd believe the musician over you.

  2. Nah their a tiny company. I thought they'd take off after the glowing review earlier this year in Sound On Sound magazine. Actually the few I know who have them say the D5 is punchier in the low end. I'm actually considering switching for that reason or else I'll need a woofer eventually.

  3. The D5 or D8? Let us know how they are!

    D8. Look I can tell you from my friend's studio they are amazing value for money if aesthetics aren't important. They are big & quite clunky looking. My friend has Adam, Eve & these as monitors (he's a gear junky) as well as some other uber expensive ones he paid $20,000 for. Anyway, we found that the D8's are easily on par with the more expensive Adam & Eve monitors over a spectrum of music (classical, drum & bass, prog house, modern Goa trance, Ultimae & old school jazz). Very flat and natural sound. I think the D8's are still on sale direct from direct from Equator.

     

    Mine won't arrive for some time as they don't distribute in Australia yet. Then I need to break them in of course but cannot wait to hear my modular rack through them. I can't say too much about the psychedelic trance sound as currently I'm deep in to progressive house, deep house & Detroit style techno production wise.

  4. So after a long time complaining about the rip off traders on Discogs a gentleman (I assume man) who wishes to remain anonymous contacted me an said if I donated to the Mago Tree Goa project they'd send me a mint copy of Mind Rewind. So I made a $40 donation and today received my copy!

     

    My soul feels better for the donation, and the music is wonderful.

     

    A big thanks to Mr Anonymous, and as my wife n' I like to make a large annual donation to a charity every Christmas we're giving a further donation to this project on behalf of our two little kids.

  5. Well I'd go digital for one thing as you get both the mixed versions and unmixed tracks for a great price via their bandcamp.

     

    Artist albums?

     

    Asura - any, Cell & CBL are IMO the best.

     

    Personally I love their compilations and would suggest Ambrosia, Oxycanta III & Passages.

  6. Absolutely stunning release. The mood flows deeply & there's a wonderful cohesiveness to this compilation. I admit I prefer the digital unmixed version, but the trances vibes in some tracks make me think this is where Flying Rhino should've gone. Wonderful music for chilling out or a slow deep dance.
