    I'll leave my impressions here.

     

    Not bad. Some wicked melodies (especially Maharaja) and I liked that a couple of the tracks were a lower BPM than usual. The samples really got on my nerves though.

     

    And as is typical for Filipe, the compositions don't go anywhere. They sound cool, but they don't tell a story or leave a lasting impression... they lack the rise and fall that makes a track a full journey. It's frustrating, because he has the musical chops to make a great Goa album, but he needs to start doing something different from putting in melody after melody in his tracks. That, or start collaborating with someone who does.

    Have you heard the album Angels Trumpets, released in 2015? It pretty much has all the elements you are referring to, storytelling etc., and I consider it Filipe's best album. Other than that I won't comment bc I am not a promoter, only an "independent messenger" posting stuff I feel has value to the community. This time the value imo are "rarely" seen lower BPM's, nicer cover than usually + that CD is cheap: 6 dollars + shipping. Thanks for answering the topic, tho, glad someone is.

    I do not want to go Mental Hospital until I old die.

    He is just on the right balance not to be banned at all, cause on what bases would he be?

    He never posts anything hurtful to no one at all, BUT keeps on trolling any way always getting reactions.

     

    I disagree.

     

    5 the most recent new threads are important on the front page on the right up. With any troll those "highlights" of news don't last very long. Annoying.

    V/A - Dimensional Gateway 4 [Veil Of The Moon]

    in 2017

    Posted

    The compilation is really something but the comparison/aim to be better than The World Beyond --> no, no. The World Beyond was and is a gift, a superstar with a born talent delivered in a holy package. The Veil Of The Moon is full of all possible talent too, but it rose to NHL via AHL, via hard work, not as a superstar to hit NHL as a teenager and keeping its post to win all trophys. There are two ways: firstborn type of gift and then the gift of another baby that was made like an every evening wrestling practice with sweat and not that much of romance. Very welcomed, though, and loved baby, this last one, too.

     

    What is just said above is not to take anything away from the excellency of this new compilation. It really got me. Acid after acid, talented producers delivering their best. A very CD worth material, something to be cherished now and in the future.

     

    Fav tracks:

     

    1. Clementz-Black Dwarfs (instalove and just so the best)

    2. Dragon Twins- Illa Tahin

    3. Proxeeus-Dagon

     

    ++ all the else, too, because it is very balanced greatly moving acid blizzard from the first to the last.

     

    Thank you Neogoa Records for the job exceptionally well done!

    We have psynews picture thread: it is about psynews members in pictures.

     

    Here's a different challenge.

     

    Post some of your coolest life memories in a picture. It can be from a festival, home, travel destination, whatsoever.

     

    I will start. This is a (bad quality) pic taken in Rovinj, Croatia in 1994. I was working in hum aid but on a free time, like evenings, me and my buddy, who was studying theatre, were doing some street pantomimes and would gather a nice applause :)

    Death

    Funny and ironic, isn't it? Something so natural makes us so uneasy...still figuring out why.

    Yep, I guess death is still one those unsolved mysteries in life, belongs to life but still every time it happens to someone close it is a "new" situation to handle with. One just cannot train it, every incident is unique. Sorry for your loss @Happy Horse.

    Connection or ZNA

    I have issues with dust; that's why I wouldn't consider Connection. For Zna I am not sure how abundant is the dust. I am def interested in Zna this year because of the line-up, but my first choice is Balkan Goa Fanatics Sea Edition, to where I have bought a ticket. Croatian islands are rock-based, not sand, so no dust, also nice to dip in the sea. Transylvaliens (from what I have seen in pics) looks like another perfect location, it is grass soil. (Sorry for going a bit off-topic here talking about other fests, but on the other hand it is not offtopic at all bc for instance the only reason that has kept me from attending Connection is the dust as long as there is better locations available).

     

    For me all kinds of convenience issues are more important than line-ups. It is def a sign of getting old. I also prefer daytime dancing like some others here. The best would be if I didn't have to sleep in a tent and hehe, that's the way I am gonna have it this summer on the fest I mentioned  :P

    Thanks ppl for the nice words and stuff. Feeling way better atm, good music always helps in the hardships of life, but you already knew that, right? :P

     

    Btw, it's been so pretty in Finland this week, the shot is from my balcony this morning :-)

     

    Edit: can you spot "a face" in the pic which I did? Cool, I think :)

    Death

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    Hard topic.

     

    Got a phone call this morning. A very good friend had died. Via own hand.

     

    I have a few experiences of death. Saturday is gonna be 7 years the day my mother died. Cancer, but still the endcome came all of a sudden.

     

    Also, some years ago, my best friend died Saturday evening on a bar floor. Autopsy didn't show any sign of drugs, alcohol in blood was less than one promille.

     

    Life goes on for me, but these kind of news always bring me some kind of "surrealistic" feeling. A feeling of something "above". It is very weird and hard to explain. Certainly it is a shocking moment.
