astralprojection

removed because it was silly and dumb. my apologies

I find it almost hilarious that this track from 2008 still is the very best and defining track of new school goa trance. 11/10 This is still the track that everyone has to beat. Many have tried but noone managed to do it.

i tried watching dune 2, had to stop watching after about 60%, damn it was boring! im sure it was better at the cinema.

great ideas mr richpa, make it happen

lets start from the bottom. some sort of beach. clearly you can see the horizon. where "artifact303" text is located. but then theres a planet all of a sudden, with another horizon. then theres another planet, a huge fkn thing that fills half the picture, to the left there, in purple. so we have three horizons, one local, one distant, and one planetary. it just doesnt make any sense! it reminds me when i was playing around in photoshop in 1998.. you didnt care about actual physics or anything. but this was one of the better sounding suntrip albums; so i imagine alot of thought went into chosing the right cover art. and you picked this?! haha lol. anyone got any other ridicolous art works

thanks for the reply makes perfect sense

wops i forgot about space pussy. that was my fav track for many years around the 00s. Should be also shared 3rd place. Interesting you mention jiggle of the sphinx which i think is one of his more weaker tracks

hmm. i think surely he was one of the first to popularize and create neo goa. And he certainly has his own style, his first two albums were kind of meh even though they did have a huge impact on the scene. But he really got into his own with his third album, and to my knowledge there is no other artist that share a similar sound and style. I realise you dont like him at all and thats ok but at least Try to be objective tracks like filtertraces and perpetually delayed voyage are completely unique to his personal style.. But lets agree to disagree, also the thread isnt about filteria so enough about him 😃 And i like Xeno, just not this album that much.

Funnily enough I didn't find this topic while searching.. 1) fluoro neuro sponge 2) gamma goblins 2 3) lsd / angelic particles / magik 4) demention 5) horrorgram / snakey shaker

nope, xeno is not a better artist than filteria. you can tell pretty easily by the sounds crafted. Xeno seems to not care much about sound design, while filteria would spend a year on a kickdrum.. And as far as vision go, i mean, comon. Filteria basically invented neo goa. abode of the damned was pretty nice. well mixed. but sound design leaves alot lacking. negative time didnt remind me much of mfg.. but the 2nd half of the track was allright!

Central Rishon Kaledioscope Retox just the best trance there is. sadly alot has disappeared from youtube over the years.

i can kinda see where you get MFG from here i guess? But unfortunately the kick+bass ruins it for me after a few more listens now, i think its not my cup of tea at least. the sounds are way too simple (the music is decent, but sounds not so much). and i absolutely hate the kickdrum and especially the bassline. damn near sounds like 'init patch' of any virtual analog VST, with unison and lots of stereo imaging whats the 2nd best track from the album in your opinion?

i think it sounds very good, probably the best so far tbh! the key changes around 5:50 mark and onwards are very nice, again reminds me of something that i cant put my finger on right now.. oh yes now i remember. similar key and key changes are in this track aswell, by solarforce. ( -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04jXxZhzxfA- ) can you give a bit more information about the samples you used? and from what synths they were sourced? for such things as kick, bassline, hihats, leads etc. would be interesting to learn where you found all the samples at that time (98).

Sounds very nice hope we find out. Sound feels familiar

It was just my first impression. I haven't even listened to the full album yet but the sound of it threw me off. I'll give it a few more listens 🙂

you didnt offer a youtube link, i think its pretty common these days to offer a place where you can listen to the album you are reviewing. or is that just me? i dont know where to check it out, i dont have spotify or apple music or all that jazz. if i listen to something these days its going to be youtube. the quality there is good enough for me. most of the time. here is the whole album. look forward to seeing whats up with it. edit: it didnt take long to realise this sounds nothing like xenomorph. this sounds horrible. i dont even make music anymore and can come up with better sounds than this. wtf. Guess it all went downhill after that terrible "Gamma Draconis" comp.

Best filteria album and set a new standard for neo goa and goa as a whole Best tracks: filtertraces, wormhole, big blue And don't sleep on the Astral Projection remix of filtertraces.

Lol ok. Was just trying to be polite I guess I'll take it elsewhere. Peace

1) amen 2002 2) dancing galaxy 1997 3) another world 1999 Why 1) just stellar production, insane sound quality, more subtle melodies, more mature. 2) most intense themes and almost living melodies: liquid sun, noone ever dreams, dancing galaxy 3) very introspective. An inner journey. The most perfect and "complete" tracks of their entire catalog: nilaya and tryptamine dream.

not really close to the astral files imho, i wouldnt have thought of the astral files in a million years if you tortured me. (not a bad thing, aside from Enlightened evolution and time began, i think that album could very well be forgotten and buried ) Now to check out the other tracks

ive not really listened to them all thouroghly yet but maybe its because it sounds the most "neo" goa, and some sort of AI is pushing that to people? or is that wierd.. if i had to find a common denominator it would be that thats the one who sounds the most "neo" out of all of them i think

C R I N G E yes yes nhjo is launching an only fans in the pleiadies star system, where its christmas now. Very Faking Fanny 🤢 😨 😥

Ephedra is one of the best neo goa artists. Nova fractal, filteria and e-mantra keeps him company. This sounds really good musicwise but I'm not too keen on the mastering, it's a bit too mid/mid-high focused, making it a tad sharp and "telephone" like. Also perhaps the music is a bit generic now? it kinda reminds me alot of cosmic dimension.. I want to like it more than I do but it's still pretty damn good, hopefully the end product will sound even better.

i havent heard anything good from him since spiritual healing album.

this needs a bump really good and underrated album original The Spiral of Power 1997 re-release "Re-Collection" 2000 pure goa with tons of melodies and lots and lots of acid
