MINDSPHERE - Mental Triplex - Presence / Suntrip Records' Review In this Wonderful Release of Melodic Cosmic Goa Trance, MINDSPHERE lead You with an Original Research in a Psychedelic Trip from Earth to Clouds then beyond with a Stellar Voyage accross the Universe. This Symphonic & Emotional Release is Very Rich with a combination of Old & New School Tunes, even a few PsyTrance & Downtempo ones are used compose Very Nice Stories with Twisted Modern & Oriental Melodies that give You Various Feelings as Happyness & Sadness, a touch of Acid Tunes & Various Kick Bass Lines that give You Powerful Cosmic Ascents on most of the Tracks. By the way, I admire the work of MINDSPHERE on this album because it is a Clear Full Emotional Story at itself. I'm going to define You the Compositions & my Feelings about each then. Anyway, I can say what I hear with my ADAM A8X & my SEINHEISER HD598 the Production (Analog + Digital combined) is Very Clean & the Mastering either, it is Sincerely a Real Pleasure. 1/ Back To The Roots : This Track refers to the first Old School Melodic Goa style with Symphonic Twisted & Hashed Modern Melodies here, Cosmic Acid Sounds with Positive Energy & Kick Bass Lines from this Age with the Clearness of nowaday. MINDSPHERE introduces here the landscape with the problem which seems in my opinion an irritating uncertainty that is oscillating between the positive & the negative side, like a game You can win or loose. 2/ Inevitable Dilusion : This Track is a Melancholic & Lightly Oriental Twisted Modern Cosmic (Acid) Melodic Goa Trance also based on Old School Kick Bass Lines. The Energy is not much valued there, globally from the beginning till the end it is Flat enough althought there are a few small ascents. In my opinion it represents the evils that issues from the previous uncertainty but with a little kind of hope, it is oscillating from zero to the negative side. There is a reply there that lecture which accuses the fate of this disappointment. 3/ Melodramatic : This Track is the "Darkest" one, it is a Melancholic Twisted Cosmic (Acid) Melodic Goa Trance with Old School Trebles based on New School Kick Bass Lines and a few additional Tribal & PsyTrance Sounds. As the previous one the Energy is not much there compared to the Positive Tracks. In my opinion it represents the sadness at the bottom of the disappointement assimilated to a drama, it is a depression, it is oscillating in the negative side but there is a glimmer of hope that makes it closer to zero sometimes, the doubt is too pronounced. 4/ Beyond The Illusion : This Track is a Very Rich Original Melodic Acid Cosmic Goa Trance with a Combination of Various Kinds of Melodies (Deep, Twisted, Symphonic, Hached, ...), with various voices modulated as a "Robot" & a Deep Hached "Choral" ones, based on Original New School Kick Bass Lines. The Energy is increasing slowly there. In my opinion, this is the cure, an outside help that advise & give a lesson, by giving the knowledge to be reassured ; the positive side gets over progressively. 5/ Mental Processor : This Track is a Twisted Melodic (Several Kinds) Oriental Cosmic (Acid) Goa Trance based on Original New School Kick Bass Lines with Oscillating Trebles, Flat enough all along under a Little Pronounced Kick Line compared to the Bass one. In my opinion, this is the reflexion, the analysis with the previous information to get the own discernment about the good & the bad ; the reason for being. 6/ Zygote : This Track is the most Powerful of the Album whose the style is Melodic Cosmic Acid Goa Trance with a New School Kick Bass Lines the Bass is stuck to the Kick as on PsyTrance Full On & with Oscillating & Hashed Various Melodic & Acid Trebles than invole a Global Energetic Ascent from the debut until the end. In my opinion, this is the arrival of the solution that implies the joy, so it the growth ; the positive energy is at its top level. 7/ Alinside : (Ali Inside & All Inside) This Track is also an Very Rich Original Combination with Various kinds of Melodies (Modulated Electric Guitar, Organ, ...), the Richest ("All Inside") to make a Symphonic Deep Cosmic Acid Melodic Goa Trance with a Soft Woman & a "NASA Lancer Control Tower" Man Voices & New School Kick Bass Lines. In my opinion, this is the prosperity, the sustainability, strength & equilibrium in all kinds of Love, the positive is at its constant standing. 8/ Tears Of Goddess : This Track is an Oriental Cosmic Acid (Astral) Twisted (Hashed) Melodic Goa Trance with an Emotional Woman Songs with one Hashed & Deep Sounds listenable on some Downtempo Tracks based on an Old School Kick Line & a New School Bass Line stuck to the Kick as on PsyTrance Full On. In my opinion, these are the tears of Joy, a positive depression by reminding the long & hard way to dominate all these agonies to fulfill the goal. 9/ Photosynthesis : This Track is a Cosmic (Acid & Astral) Twisted Melodic based on New School Kick Bass Lines. It is a Global Flat Oscillating Melodic Trip with some ponctual Cosmic Acid Ascents the Level Increments Progressively during the Track. In my opinion this is the happy end with lots of Peace, Love & Light that is deserved due to the mental that allowed to succeed in this experience ; justice is done. To conclude, this Release is an Unavoidable one for all the Passionate of Goa Trance & given the talent of MINDSPHERE, hopefully the 2 next Releases in Other Styles of Goa Trance that are arriving soon on Suntrip Records to fill the trilogy will be either Master Pieces to own.

Namaste Everybody ! Sorry, I'm a Very Fresh user of Psynews because I don't have much time for that, but many people here know me in the real life, from Discogs & Facebook. I made the step to come here because I made a review for Cristian MORPHIC RESONANCE about his Awesome Album and he asked me to share it with You ; so here is what Cristian recieved : "Namaste Brother ! My apologies for my late, bad unforseens these days, so my last listening was this evening to finalize & to write the report I promised You ; hope You are going to be Satisfied of my work ! Light reminding & additional information to have a full report : Nice Artworks but not in accordance with the topic of the main title meaning, only in accordance with Goa Trance in general ! : P The Story with the titles is not Amazing, not a clear one, even with the Sound itself, You begin with the most Poweful Psychedelic Track & You finish with one of the most Melodic one, I would have done the invert, my receipe is globally an Ascent during the tracks (with variations into of course) & the same way for the Album from the 1st Track till the last one ; sure the Stories can give Special Feelings/Emotions in the middle with various Atmospheres & possibly a Downtempo Track can be add at the beginning or at the end, no problem, as soon as there is a full coherency ! ; ) Now about the Sound itself : Globally the Album is close to my Favourite Taste : the Quality of the Production is Very Clean, the Sound is not boring from the debut until the end & mostly I adore the Very Energetic & Real Acid Psychedelic Vibes on your Goa Trance style, without Cheesy Commercial Sounds I don't like really that I can hear but it is not possible to trip with them on the TranceFloor ! The Structures are all, except Minwarp, with Full Power at the end like I Enjoy for the global Ascent Story of a Track ! ; ) The Mastering looks fine for me (Album tested on my ADAM A8X speakers & SENNHEISER HD 598 headphone), if You are not satisfied (not enough Sharped for You as You told me), You should have followed it much closer to involve the correction by Tim before Relasing it ! : P (*) I miss a little more Power on the Attacks ("PAFFFFFF !!!" more violent) after each Break on each Track, You certainly boost them during your lives but at home by listening to the CD, I would have Enjoyed either ! It is a common problem I also meet on all Goa (even PsyTrance) Tracks from other Artists but very often it is even less Powerful than You ! : P (I have doubt it is due to the Mastering conditions to avoid local peaks at 0dB so that the whole rest is not closer enough to 0dB ; solution if possible : letting the "tube" the closest to 0dB & letting these local peaks over 0dB ; I'm not enough informed on Mastering Technics, I was told You can't go over 0dB by someone because of the softwares (Top at 0dB), but someone else told me the Israelis' Mastering with the Top Technology are The Best ones because they can go over 0dB just at the limit of the Sound Saturation ! = )) Great Evolutive Sound Story on each Track !!! : D I would have Enjoyed more Shamanic Sounds & You insert Tribal Sounds (Percussions, Didgeridoo, ... ; as Hilight Tribe, ...) ! : P Track 1 : Psychedelic Hell It could have been my Favourite if the beginning from 0:34 till 2:52 was a bit clearer it is a bit confused because the "Special Sound" at 0:34 over the Bassline is close to the Breath/Blast of the Bassline itself & too much Sounds are combined then, not enough Contrast, maybe the Mastering could have been better there to reduce the confusion or Tim did his best for because of You made a Complex Production there, I don't know ; otherwise, this is the most Powerful Psychedelic that makes me thinking in his Lugubrious way to "INFECTED MUSHROOM - Psycho (Live Mix)" ! I Enjoy a lot this Lugubrious Atmosphere ! ; ) Track 2 : In The Mouth Of Madness Nice Sounds of Electric Guitar Well inserted ! : D Not my Favourite Sound for Trancing & Tripping but Very Nice Track to listen to, with in addition a Lugubious Atmosphere & a Change of Octave ! ; ) I Enjoy a lot the Change of Octaves ! ; ) Track 3 : The City Of Moons Very Nice beginning with a Science Fiction Movie Atmosphere, long Mastered & Coherent Story & a Change of Octave that gives value !!! : D Only Reproach, this kind of Acid Sounds is much used (IMBA, ...), common enough, not so Innovative, otherwise, Very Nice Tripping Track ! ; ) Track 4 : Bad Dreamers No Lugubrious Atmosphere, but it is the Darkest Pure Acid style of the Album, it is the less beautiful to hear at home but Very Powerful Psychedelic for the TranceFloor for sure ! ; ) A Remix with a Lugubious Atmosphere would give it more a soul ! ; ) Track 5 : Chronos I recognize there much Specific Known Old School 303 Sounds I Enjoy much at 1:18, 2:10, 4:19 ; used on Tracks I don't remember which ones, but already heard for sure, Very Nice Arrangement with the other Sounds & with nowaday's Quality ! ; D The Defects are the not enough Powerful Attack* at 7:30 after the "Battery Rolling" & at the end the last Note is bad to hear, it would have been better the following one You can hear on the previous Sequence at 9:16 ; in addition there is a Write (no sound) of 4 seconds at the end of the Track that should have been cut ! : P Track 6 : Procyon I Enjoy Very Much the Lugubrious Atmosphere & the Shamanic moment from 3:30 ; Very Nice Track with Old School Acid 303, one of my Favourite Track ! ; D Track 7 : Mindwarp I was expecting a Powerful end like the others, it is a shame, but a structure with a long Descent is not bad, gives a change & is good for DJ's ! I Enjoy Very Much You used a Shamanic Voice sample that seems the same lightly modified as "TOÏ DOÏ - Spiral Dive" ! Otherwise, Awesome Track ! ; ) Please, this one is not really finished for me in fact, I'm waiting for a Remix with a Suite (New part to add from "8:45" to "11:00" or more) to have the Full Power Ascent at the end like the others after this Nice Stellar Walking & I would like You add Shamanic Sounds into the Ascent & improved the whole Track by Tribal & Indian Sounds spread on it ! ; ) Track 8 : S.U.N. Project - Space Dwarfs (M. R. Rmx) Awesome & Very Powerful Remix, only the Attacks* could have been more Energetic/Violent ! ; ) To conclude, in fact I don't really have a Favourite Track after my last listening, they have all something I Enjoy Very Much independently, let's say my Favourite would be a Combination of the whole points I Enjoy the most, plus those I have suggested beforeward ! : P So my Favourite Goa Track is a Shamanic-Tribal-Acid (Old School 303 & more)-Lugubrious-Indian-Stellar/Cosmic (Science Fiction...) Track with Change of Octaves, the Energy You know giving it, much Powerful Attacks with kinds of "Battery Rolling" before the Ascents, ... ! Please make this one for us someday Brother, You won't regret ! ; D BTW, I think a "VS" Track with You, Toï Doï & U.X. in the future would be an Amazing stuff, maybe on the style I would like the most if All of You were interested in !!! ; D Anyway, I can't wait for Trancing & Tripping on your Energetic Live at the Connection Festival, I come mostly for this one & I hope I'll show You the Effects of your Sound on my body by my Trancing & Tripping style : my body is totally in Harmony with the Music ; I can control my body to do something else but it follows the Music without Acting : This is the Trancing State for me ; I feel the Energy at the end of my Fingers & when it is Powerful, it is fully in my Hands, like an Energetic Ball, that's why I LOVE this Music & need a Powerful Psychedelic Sound on the TranceFloor, NOT Cheesy Commercial Trance/Dance Sounds for Discotheques ! ; D All The Best ! Big Hugs !!! David =)" Hope You are going to enjoy it ! BoOoOoOoM !!!
