Spot on.I think, the "huge crowd" always looking for the "basic-instinct contents".. They want to feel the "destructive/ childish/ sexual energy - atmosphere"
because the nature rewards these with the greatest -easy- pleasures. (+it doesn't require brain/knowledge)
example >
I've not felt this "intention" in goatrance (especially in oldschool).
Typical basic's was Philosophy, Astronomy, History, Psychology, Religion, Aliens, Science, LSD etc which requires a general "intelligence and interest" and "abstract thinking" to enjoy.
That's why it's never been popular as mainstream trance, techno, drum'nbass, .. (IMO)

Just received my bandcamp code. That totally made my day. Praise to the sect!

Purchased.
Hats off to Global Sect on this package. Everything from the outstanding visual presentation to the hard-hitting, first-rate cosmic goa 6 tracks preview was just as I hoped, and then some. All this for a very reasonable price...just, wow.

Sounds very good!!

You can be proud of that one sir. Best goa release I've heard so far this year.Good news for all CD collectors: We will have 30-40 copies of Dimensional Gateway 4 compilation on our Bandcamp page very soon. Tonight I'm getting the artwork done and hopefully in next couple of weeks we will have CD's ready. In case you still don't have this one, it's available for free download on Ektoplazm and Bandcamp!

Is that the same guy who produced Desintegration from The Cure?It's Kevin Metcalfe, what did you expect?
Edit: Nevermind, got my answer.

Anything planned for digital pre-orders on bandcamp?

Don't think I could love an album purely based on its production qualities, no matter how sophisticated they are...I don't see how you can separate taste and the 'facts' like the tools being used. There's music that is recorded and mixed way differently than others, but can still be in the same genre of music. If you like only crystal clear music, there's a high chance you will prefer Derango over the dirty Schlabbaduerst tracks for example, though it's music that is in the same niche and has overall the same kind of fans. There's a technical side that's not up for debate, unless it comes to how the music reacts to you personally. And that is exactly what taste is, in my opinion.

You're right, OP was stricly about the "technical side", missed that one. Besides, I'm in no way an IM hater. I own all their records and I couldn't care less about them being trance or not. Good music is good music. I will admit that they haven't impressed me much since CV but that's off-topic. But yeah, agreed with everything you said except that I'm clearly not as enthusiastic as you are about their newest output.OP's question was about technical side, so there's no thing like "oveproduced and bland". In case of IM I also think all this flashy techniques are there not to make impression, but to really help tell the story better and in more tangible way - listen to Milosh from last album for example: the main motiff is incredibly emotional, but its impact is doubled (or tripled) by the way it's delivered. Technical prowess for IM is just a tool, whereas for a lot of other artists it's where their knowledge ends: they'll obsess about kick or bass sound (I read today a post from guy layering 7 kicks on top of eachother and still not getting it "right"...) writing pristinely sounding ...crap. We may not like IM's output especially because for years it's not goa/psytrance anymore, but objectively their music has a lot of soul, magic and individuality and immaculate production only helps fleshing that out.

Care to provide a counter argument?
Otherwise, it's just a fake news
"Technically speaking, nothing beats Infected Mushroom."
My argument:
<removed by YT and us>
More seriously, yeah, IM's production is outstanding on a technical point of view, no question. On the other side, the whole thing can feel well, bland (at least to me). Kinda reminds me of Steven Wilson's [over]productions when it comes to rock music.

Any update on this one?

Didn't think it was even possible. My hype meter goes up a notch.New material also sounds really good production-wise. I believe it will be nice upgrade of Lazarus

2nd half > 1st. Yep indeed.

Man, I don't know you but hang in there buddy. My thoughts are with you.I feel bad I have yet to listen to this album. Unfortunately I was basically homeless for most of December and lost virtually all of my possessions. I don't have the money to buy this just yet but I will have to give it a listen on YouTube or bandcamp.
