Review:

 

Greetings from the dark side is send to you by Iboga with this release.

Especially "2 The Moon" starts with scary melody shreds on a typical

iboga-bassline

(when you've listened to some iboga tracks, you should know what i'm talking

about) -

but very soon great bongos improve the whole thing to a shaking bodymover. In

the middle

there are some creeping voice samples and even more bongos talking to each

other and a subtle hi-hat.

You may call it minimalistic (it ain't got melody) but it grooves and moves

along through the sewers of your

mind @ 136 bpm --- 9/10.

Dynosomething has similar creepy and eerie synth-surfaces in the beginning, but

starts with a more powerful bass-drum

@ 138 bpm. The percussion is kind of agressive and kind of progressive and hits

you (a little bit) like whip strokes.

After about 3 to 4 minutes there's a break, going over another 3 minutes and

building up slowly a percussive layer (extremely thrilling)

and when the bass kicks in for another 4 minutes the track has somehow changed

to being even more groovy than before, even more

forwards. This one has everything i expect from danceable psytrance-music ---

10/10.
