Ormion Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 TRACK LIST: 1.Killer Rabbit (remix) 2.Doors To Visions 3.Shot Shot Voila 4.Down The Stairs 5.Haight Street Freak 6.Peak Detector 7.Processing Unit 8.Virtual Flirt 9.A Beach In Japan First album of Samy Guediche ex-member of Biodegradable. This is seriously insane stuff, full on to the bone but really interesting and full of surprises! First track is the remix of Killer Rabbit from the Masterminds compilation.I've never heard the original but this is great! Typical CPU track with lot of funny sounds and a killer bassline. 9/10.Next is the Doors To Vision track. Ok, things are getting really serious now.The first half is powerful and the second insane!!! A mayhem of sounds, kicks and powerful melodies. Especially the last build-up is unbelievable! 10/10. Next is Shot, Shot Voila. Hmm, strange title. Well, this is Absolum style for sure.Especially the bassline is 100% ''absolum-ish'', but is better from most of Christof tracks. Very fast and pumping it makes you wanna dance like a crazy! It hits you again and again and when you think is over it hits you again! KILLER! 10/10. Down The Stairs is written by Samy and Christof but it sounds more CPU than the previous track. After the strange intro the track explodes! Killer basslines, ''fake build-ups'', nice samples, it is a bit simplier than other tracks but is a killer again! 10/10. Ok and now the big surprise. Haight Street Freak is a melodic masterpiece! Although is a 149 bpm track(!) isn't that fast. The intro is really great (the sample is awesome) and the track builds to an amazing Hallucinogen-style melody! No kidding! For the end we get a great melody again and the track explodes! 10/10. Peak Detector is written by Samy and Nomad. It has a tribal percussion, more funky and more ''light'' melodies but is a great track! 9/10. Processing Unit is a bomb! Killer from the first till the last second this track is awesome.POWERFUL bassline and superb synths with a great melody at the end.GREAT 10/10. And now the...BLAST! Virtual Flirt is unbelievable! Especially the build up in the middle of the track... damn you think that the speakers are gonna explode! Maximal Psy for sure! 10/10. The last track is slower but still nice to dance.It starts wuth japanese melody and it become really,really nice.Clubby sometimes but still good track. 8/10 Yeah this is surely a great album.If you tired of the boring full on stuff, give it a try! It won't let you down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRS Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 wow.. just simple plain generic full on. Everyone always talks about the formulas and all that, but this is the first time i really hear "generic full on". All kinds of cliches here. But they dont suck here! Theres not a ton of other cheese, samples, and over the top bullshit thrown in. This is sooooo refreshing for someone who entered the scene in 2008!

Trance2MoveU Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Artist: CPU Title: Central Processing Unit Label: 3D Vision Date: September, 2003 1.Killer Rabbit (remix)2.Doors To Visions3.Shot Shot Voila4.Down The Stairs5.Haight Street Freak6.Peak Detector7.Processing Unit8.Virtual Flirt9.A Beach In Japan Ahhh...the good old days. Samy's debut was an acid ridden wave of aweso...pretty good. This was long before his music dove tailed into a shameful commercial death spiral with a release like Eat It. Some argue that it sounds too samey and while probably true you can never have too much chocolate. Thumping beats and relentless juicy acid salvos this is like doing endless spirals in a rocket through space. It sounds very full-on, but the insanity of the melodies puts it on a higher plane for me. He gets in this groove and pounds away at it until you're all twisted out. Max cardio stuff that is very similar to Absolum's Inside the Sphere yet not on that level. Oh and it has lasers. Who doesn't like lasers?
