Some nice trippy AI-animations on top of Finger-tutting, would love to see some music video or animated visual decos like this for psytrance artists.

Really captures that morphing aspect of hallucinogens.

Astrancer finally released his track Archons, which he put up at teaser for quite some time ago. Listening right now, so can't comment if it's good yet, but begins promising. :D 

*Done, really nice ornamental oriental track. I could've done without the vocal/vowel synths tho. And an odd choice was to put that super catchy Intro main hook in the final part of the track at around 08.00 mark, that melody could've ripped the track from 03.00 onwards. Still a  nice build-up to this final killer hook. (Which becomes the Katharsis of the tune). And closes the track with the same melody it started with in the intro.

It was that hook/main motif which was in the teaser two years ago or so. :) Very victorious/Nitzhonot type melody, reminiscent of Luminus, Shiva Shidapu and Holymen. And a very nice emotionally expressive egyptian/indian type flute pad.

I really like the swirling euphoric acidic background layer, reminds me of Mindsphere, Lost Buddah, and Ethereal.

*edit the original teaser was in 2019:

Did anyone else here see TV commercials for Goa Head in 1998? I remember vividly a commercisl for Goa Head 6 I think, and they played some snippets of the tracks such as Chi-A.D Astral Warrior(Remix) to a nice animated trippy CGI vortex.

Remembering this now almost feels like a memory from a parallel reality. :D I hope this genre gets that wide-spread recognition once more.

Astral Projection - Utopia (Concept Rmx)

I read the information that this remix was made by Martin Freeland aka Man With No Name. It sounds similar to his style, and in 1996 he had his own label Concept in dance. (The word Concept in the title of the remix seems to hint). The source is so-so: just some comment on youtube. I didn't find any information on discogs. When I listen to Total Eclipse - Waiting For A New Life, it also seems to me that there is a MWNN sound. And there is also no confirmation of this version on discogs.

Total Eclipse - Waiting For A New Life

Just listened to this album again but for the first time with good headphones, eyes closed and not too much background noise around ...and h-o-oly crap this is good! The effects they use on some of those sounds and melodies, it's sometimes like the musical elements are being painted onto little 3D objects which are then floating around in space - and I say this stone cold sober (well, maybe a bit tired and semi-fasting)!

I totally missed how great this is before when I hadn't listened to it properly. Another thing I've noticed with different albums within the psy genres is how dramatically your mood and the setting can alter your appreciation of it. There have been some albums I just haven't "got" for years and then I listen to them again in a different context and suddenly love them. I was in a dark mood this evening and this hit the spot. It's awesome.

I'm mostly listening to neorave and hardtrance these days. A genre I started listening to some weeks ago. Some badass artists out there.

I've always shared in your tastes. I'll give these a listen on the ride home. 

I've been trying to dig into drum and bass but can't get past the Spotify surface level material.

Cool, is there a revival of the hardtrance style in the 90s style, or are these old school releases? Neorave I've never heard of, makes me think of Ravemeister for some reason. :D I guess Neogoa wasn't enough!
