CyclotronMajesty

I heard this track on the dimension 2 comp by by Electric Universe named "The Web" I was wondering if anyone knew if this track has been released in a different version - this one seems to be edited short but seems utterly super badass - I'd like to hear the full version if there is one. I looked it up on discogs and couldn't find any mention of the track except on this Dimension 2 comp...

No not just the way They layer the sounds... while that takes intelligence - this sort of work is kind of almost an accident. I wonder if Penyata really intended or was he just following his own creative impulses. nontheless the track is genious, because it is clever, and works on many levels at once but for the same purpsoe synergizing across scales. Music does this in general and psy more so - but this particular track works exemplifies it.

Thats kind of mean dude. What if I took a picture of you and put it on the cover of an album and called it the worst thing i've ever seen? Frankly I don't think all those are that bad. If you want to put your face on the cover of a work that you did - I really don't see any reason why you shouldn't just because it's psy-trance. What gets me is the psy-trance having the nubile nude or half nude females on the cover. Unless it's sexy club trance - It seems an over done cliche in order to sell records - which is used to sell everything else in the modern world already -from spark plugs to hair cuts to your own private yachts. Psytrance is supposed to be a little bit independent of those things. But putting your face on the cover - I don't see the big deal.

This track: Space Station by Panayota of the Psyonic Riot comp, I've noticed is very intelligent for his use of gestalt and sampling in the track. This guy uses some comic take (from some comedy take of star wars that I'm not familiar with) of the Star Wars trilogy in sampling to create a very effective innuendo of a group of stoners in the track. Not only recognizing the characters (if familiar with star wars) the samples create a very good juxtaposition of star wars - psy-trance, and a group of utterly stoned people in a comedic visual image that is very creative and intelligent and works perfect with psytrance. I'm impressed with his ability to use sampling and sound to imply a group of stoners by implication while juxtaposing it with star wars and making it funny in the track. Together with star wars, comedy and a group of stoners the gestalt of the combination results in genius creativity IMHO. What tracks struck you as the work of utterly creative genius? Discuss.

This is just beautiful. I think the center symbol is a crop circle - or looks very similar. Kinda looks like a dragon.

Here it is... Feminist Misandry seems to have penetrated the Psy-scene... (BTW Misandry means Hatred of men by women... opposite misogyny ) Sounds like a good album kinda poppy, the cover is WTF IMHO.

Yea that "night flight through babylon" does sound like an old MWNN track. One if his hits. It is a remix - but it's done so well it should be renamed.

I don't think it is negative to take inspiration from earlier paragons of intrepid. Isn't this track from Pink Floyd pretty much the first "techno" ever made? I think i've even heard Sphongle mixing in that very track itself into their sets. I don't think they are trying to hide it - but obviate it.

nothing right now - just silence. Thats uncommon for me.

Wow very creative. I hope they can go to the cyclotron itself and get some sounds from the machinery. May be difficult to get access but I bet they could if they were persistent enough.

Bummer - was just about to tune in...

Wow nice. This does sound like D5. Goa is timeless. This is a good track. Is Dimension 5 still around? I'd like to visit it these days see what they are up to in there.

Looks like a National Geographic Magazine cover lol blah.

Lol I kinda get it but - still funny looking. Others on this page seem ok.

Badass. haha thanks man. That it exactly.

I'm looking for that compilation that was released back in the day (pre 2000 ?) where it had the girl with her mouth open and a pill in her mouth. It was a fluorescent and the cover was mostly pink looking. She had blonde hair I think. I think it was a raver girl with Ecstasy tablet. If someone knows which compilation that was and could direct me to it I would appreciate it.

looking forward to it Really like this guy's style the last album was spectacular.

I think Flying Eye Land was a good album and still is myself. Sorry to hear that the group broke up. If it's not the same group shouldn't be called CS. I think they do need to move past their old sound be more flexible etc. But this Album sounds pretty cheesy for lack of a better word.

This is truly one of the best Psy-trance Albums ever made. Doesn't get old - the sophistication of the sound and the power of the music is unprecedented. These two certainly have a gift. Sonic Ecstasy indeed. Very positive. This album is very special. I just hope Boris Blenn and Michael Dressler can keep up this level of brilliance in further works. A masterpiece. 9.25/10

Www.grahamhancock.com/supernatural Website for the work. I think this work is appropriate to the community here if not already suggested by someone else (i havent looked). Pretty large work biggest one ive ever read... Thousand or more pages i think and small font. Nontheless his account if his psychedelic experiences anthropology and his linking of all contact expieriences thoughout history and prehistory is a truly origional peice of research and worth the read. You will get some background into all kinds of magical tales from many cultures as Hancock links them togather with human psycology civilizartion history knowlwdge and future horizions. Anyone who enjoys Terrence Mckenna will enjoy this work. Reasonable and well argued. I would say the cutting edge published work on the research into these areas of psychedelic expieriences and what they mean for mankind. Hancock argues for these tupes of experiences as being central to humanity as we know it. My first book ive read by hancock and i think his latest. I compare him to Mckenna because of a similarity of perspective however while Mckennas main objective is to blow your mind with his poetic speech Hancock is in my opinion superior in convincing arguments and depth research in this work.

it's a shame. One of the main reasons I hardly come back is because the shutdown of off-topic. I agree it was one of the better portions of the net.

Buy it on iTunes. Cuz this score breaks up stagnation.

Anyone know what the... samples are saying in this album particularly in the last track towards the end of: T10: LIGHT RECEIVER I can't quite make it out. Sounds like english, with a strong french accent. 7:00 elapsed... There is a sample sounds like it's saying : "I will deliver" then it fades out. LOL This can't right can it? Then it starts up and sounds like he says "There is always solution" =) right? Then after that...it says "Always Close?" "Always cloossed" ??? And then after that... "Always Homp" "always whole?" eh...? and then... "I know" or "and know" "your are not alone" this sounds pretty clear here after those before =) "You are not alone" I checked the psydb but they haven't put it up yet. =/ If anyone could help decipher these samples i would be grateful =) Superb album RA 10x thx for your beautiful work... timeless :drama:

I wrote this review a long time ago and never posted it becuase i never finished the whole review - however I thought I would put it up now nonetheless seeing as i'm not going to finish it... Tracklisting: 1 Retroscape (11:32) Arranged By [bass] - Danny Shnaiderman Arranged By [Rhodes] - Yakir Ben-Tov 2 Transmissions In Bloom (12:50) Composed By, Guitar [Electric] - Ariel Mann 3 Odd Reflections (10:17) Arranged By [bass] - Danny Shnaiderman Composed By, Violin - Fadel Mana 4 One Step Closer (8:49) Composed By, Saxophone [soprano] - Giyora Arbiser 5 After Silence (6:46) 6 Invention (11:13) Composed By, Saxophone [shahnai And Soprano] - Amir Gvirtzman 7 Mia Nihta Mono Den Ftani (10:07) Composed By - Panos Kamelis , Sotis Volanis Composed By [Additional], Guitar [Electric] - Yonatan Galila Composed By [Additional], Other [Zorna And Ney] - Amir Gvirtzman 8 Eternal Bliss Of The Grateful Souls (4:59) Retroscape - starts off with a slow beat and goes into the shulmanesqe sound has acoustic and electronic sounds mixed, string instruments, and lots of ethnic mixes. There is few samples female and male. At least one of them is a very common and i would say way WAY over used sample in psybient aka psychill. Then there is a sample of a female voice speaking alluding to meditation practice or somthing... that one is original... then more of the worn out indian ethnic or whatever sample that is so antiquated it basically ruins the whole vibe, reminds me of all the many many other psybient tracks that have used this sample: entheogenic, makyo probably, who knows who else... OH this time it has a disco-like overtone on it wow, how distict. If they dropped the use of that sample. It would be a totally original track, but since I've heard this riff so many times... I will just stop talking and wait for the next one and hope I haven't heard parts of it used in countless other tracks. Transmissions in Bloom - starts out with etheric synthetic ooh aah soundz, then goes into breaks that are a little faster than the previous. An asian, folk instrument (india, china), sounds like string or wind (I dunno the name). Then some synthetic strings, and piano overlaid. So far no annoying middle eastern or asian raggedy samples from sample.com ... (I guess I just got a thing against re-used samples) The electro bass is present, we have some ambient breakdowns that seem to open up to a atmosphere or an enchanted dreamscape. It kind of gets interrupted by that old Asian folk instrument, that Shulman seems to love. But then it makes it in and rests neatly together into the sound nicely. Synthetic High frequency Organs, and you feel like your gliding through a empyrean dream. Beautiful. Then some hints of shaman songs in the whistling echosphere. Then an industrial sounding breaks comes in (reminds me of NIN personally). Then some Etheric Ooh Aahs fade in. And a break beat finnaly takes hold. As our synths and melodic blooping arpeggios augment the cascading percussion stutters and dribbles. A harp now, with a compementary duet, and again the Asian Obo or whatever it is. A high pitched filter sweep, and the gentle air of Transmission in Bloom dissipates into a feminine emptiness. Odd Reflections - Starts off with a fly-by sound and a bouncing or dribbling ball of mercury bouncing in a big echoing room. Some arcade like laser bolts rythams, and then a gentle Ooh ahh sound comes in. Then a sound of someone cooking greesy breakfast with scrambled eggs or something is digesting. Then the old Asian Obo, and shortly after a synthetic sine wave takes it over. Then some old 303s adornment, percussion is going steady... and the asian obo is back to do it's thing. Then the 303 reminds me of the old golden sounds. A break... The percussion goes on but it's a break in the melodies. And then the percussion is gone. And now it's just soundscapes. Then it slowly builds back up with some arcade like laser bolts, A nice organ chord or two, and the asian obo is back with percussion. 303s return for a short march. And then a duet between the Asian Obo and a synthetic Bowawhywhwywhyah sound, and it the two sort of condense into a peak experience or somthing while the falling echos of dropped plastic cups in hyperspace cover it out. One Step Closer - Starts off with a deep bellowing under water cavern sound. And a electronic panel is nearby - oh it's the side of a android's neural net. On second thought the android is the cavern itself and it is filled with warm plasma charged liquid, probably pink or fluorescent color. The percussion breaks come in, with a cadence of Insects providing the secondary flank. And a amphibious 303 starts it's happy frog song. We have some nice steady work on the percussion cymbals... and a profound intriguing sense of suspense comes with the rolling cascade of a supporting melody in a synthetic string with deep pedal. The Saxaphone is here and it is telling you it's a strange and funky place but it warm and welcoming even though it's so funky you can feel the smile of the man behind the saxaphone. No sound assumes dominance everything rolls through like the experience of life itself, nothing lasts and there is no abrupt beginning or end for any sound. Everything seems to simply scroll by the lady of fate. Wind in the grass. And it naturally goes out without any loss of dignity. After Silence - Starts out with a swift short xylophone scale, and a ambient line with a rain stick or chimes. Synth line sweeps in and builds, with digital watch or clicks about. The beat seems to come in, now everything reaches a kind of order, a violin, a organ, a deep synth, the sounds are almost watery. And suddenly a shimmering bell synth, and the beat breaks, synthetic ooh-aahs fade through, and there is a sense of being in a sentient artificial intelligence or being in the room with a alien intelligence, vast and expansive. Then a sound that seems out of phase, a kind of rumbling treading, or mechanical turning, of a rubber or gel part of a machine or perhaps a organic organism. The beat returns, a industrial vibe. Ambient eastern vocals and the chimes return and now a piano, with a synth electric string bass, a underwater watery jet stream sound, and the track fades quickly out. Invention - This one starts out jazzy, hm, a contrast with the rest. Creaky sounds and then in comes a obo or something, piano soon after. The percussion goes on, and we have a almost Thievery Corporation kind of vibe or sound. Then comes the saxophone, and the whole thing gets classy, wonder if it's live sax. Anyway now comes in a simple synth chord to replace the sax, and we got the obo back. Again the sax... some nice Goa style beeps and blips. It goes on, and there its a break... Starts out with high hats, quietly and fades in with that tropical reggee sound and is quickly accompanined by a obo that has a very happy gay melody. Makes you want to skip and laugh. Then it goes into a dreamy soft synth tones blue... the loyal feminine element... and were back with the obo melody that is so catchy. It goes on and the breaks down into a tribal middle eastern belly dance riff. Very intelligent switch here, impressive. Flutes quickly adorn the line and the whole thing takes you back in time. The gay melody returns and is now mixed in with the middle eastern sound from before, the summertime reggee sound takes on a new dimension. And it goes on untill a graceful fadeout of the obo which has taken us around the world through time. The flute finalizes the piece. Eternal Bliss of the Grateful Souls - The shortest track of all. Starts out with a primordial ocean of life sound in the deeps of the sea. And then is graced with a (... all I wrote) Recoup: This music trips me out, Shulman is telling us about a place, it is a message, about another place, it is not even really music, but a experience brought back from this place which the song describes. This is a mysterious place, which Shulman has the honor of the muse to allow the description thereof. Wonderful album i'd give it a 9 out of 10.

Antix - Wanderers Is so incredibly good its like ambrosia. Wow what a incredible talent these guys have. purely accident that I hear them, now I admit I'm gonna have to support them How do they to it. Its so full yet so simple. Tells a story ( cliché I know ) so uplifting and light weightless music! Yeah these guys are my favs right now by a couple light years... Minimal is really a delicacy when done this way
