Guest psysaber[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted September 20, 2000 Share Posted September 20, 2000 I agree with the above. One of my favorite songs would have to be #4, the "Equinox" track by Subkha! It's got this *vicious*, dubby bassline that goes (ahem) 'VHOOM, DUH-DUH DUN-DUN DUH-DUH..VHOOOOOM'. =) That's accompinied by this Arabian/Persian horn instrument that just howels along with it. A very ethnic piece with wicked dub elements that only Simon, Raja, and Sheldon know how execute best!! The CD definately has the 'Shpongle quality' journey factor built into it also...

Jeto Posted September 21, 2000 Share Posted September 21, 2000 This CD has to be one of the best so far in downtempo. It is definatly a journey which takes you somewhere far away from reality. One of my favorite track from this abum is Anubis - Invocation .. It has the most amazing vocals...All tracks are Rad! 10/10 .. We need more albums like this...

Guest boomwizard[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted September 24, 2000 Share Posted September 24, 2000 Everyone's right this IS GENIUS out of the speekers 10/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ehsanur Posted October 5, 2000 Share Posted October 5, 2000 Shit,this kind of music makes me hooked. Hooked on that feeling when u are sitting in your room,chilling and watching the sunrise. And going backward and backward and backward to the markets of New Dehli....feel the heat,smell he inscence,listen to the hasty voices and watch that big fluoroscent Ganesha-poster. Enough droooling... Thsi cd is amazing and starts of with maybe the most genious song ever made by the human race. "And the day turned into night..." is taken (or opposite?) from the almighty Shpongle. But the main cookie in this delicious jar,is the contribution by Doof that made me go crazy for several weeks about this cd. Although I must say that Doof has recently fallen behind compared to other artists (their part 4 on Mysteri of the yeti 2 was disappointing ),"Balashwar Bakseesh" is one of a kind, God knows how much I love this song and how my faith in psychedelia was growing out of dimensions. I wont push anybody, but enjoying some natural stimulants makes this audiovisual journey a pure joyride. Anyway,every song is so well linked together,like an eternal mantra ..liquid floatation. It does not come as any surprise that Simon Posford(+Raja Ram) and Total Eclipse are the founder of this audiotemple of delightment. 10*/10 Bom shankar-Eshanti Brahman *eternal times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SuttoXXX Posted January 4, 2001 Share Posted January 4, 2001 If every ambient album was like this... I wouldn't listen to anything else. This is one of those albums you hide from everyone and not tell anyone about until after an intense full on night of partying..... then everyone is like 'what the fuck'... anyway best ambient cd out there right now.... 10/10.. absolutely amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest acca[at]fiberia[dot]com Posted April 9, 2001 Share Posted April 9, 2001 If you're listening to this with crappy speakers or earphones, you're missing out. There is a *VERY* wicked DEEEEEP bass on a few tracks, esp. Invocation (my fave) and Purple Pygmies. Stuff to vibrate you to the bone! The music has already been commented on; what else can I say? 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chai whaller Posted April 17, 2001 Share Posted April 17, 2001 Nice-that Doof track is really true-psychedelic trance, if only more trance is made in that context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Davidtolsn Posted April 27, 2001 Share Posted April 27, 2001 this is THE BEST ambient cd ever made. very deep, very psychedelic... you must have this cd. 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soem aeld Posted July 16, 2001 Share Posted July 16, 2001 very niiiice! I'm glad I found it here in little Sweden . A pure pleasure to listen to.. very nice arabic feel in it *me likes that a LOT*. But I must say that the Doof track is probably the best track.. great album! If you find it, buy it before someone else does! 10/10!

Guest MG Posted November 4, 2001 Share Posted November 4, 2001 One of the best 2nd hand buys I will ever make, They've planted a seed. 7 out of 8 tracks I like (Rare!) I am still unsure about that chick singing the national anthem of some country (France?) on tr 3 but otherwise I LOVE this CD!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pralien[at]shpongle[dot]com Posted November 8, 2001 Share Posted November 8, 2001 ... ECLIPSE, IT IS. 11/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Children Posted November 24, 2001 Share Posted November 24, 2001 I FINALLY found it here in Paris and ... that's a PURE JEWEL ! All Tracks are good but the Shpongle and Doof ones are just wonderful :-) That's such quality stuff then I can't believe it was composed in 1998 ! One advice : listen to the WHOLE comp loud in your car if you have good stereo ... you won't believe it ! All Tracks are made in part by Simon Posford except the Doof and Total Eclipse one, which is also very nice. Rating : 8.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest xa27[at]ukr[dot]net Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 if there would be a "top 10 psy albums" i would give all 10 positions to this work. when i heard it for the first time i could not believe that it was a compilation. all tracks are so good. this cd will always be better than any other psy release ever. i would like to thank all the artists behind this project. b e s t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
