First CD 1st track by domestic and astrix...this has some really nice melodies with a nice dance groove...Second one is by Future Prophecy...repatitive groove with some small melodies....Third track is by Freeze...It has some nice samples of some wierd voice..very stacato/pitchy melodies...some nice breaks...i was very impressed by this one.. it is a happy track! Fourth track is another one by Future Prophecy called Summer of 1999.. This one I didnt like to much...but thats just my opinion...kinda boring..it has some melodies... but its not progressing into something better...Fifth track is a Yahel And I-Zen track... Im sorry guys for this... but I didnt like this track one bit.. it has some voice samples.. but it didnt do anything for me..Sixth track is by Sleeper...this one is kinda groovy... the bassline and the drums go well.. with some melodies that have delays on them..and some sweeps going into something muffled..and hihats kick in...It breaks suddenly into this diffrent feel...an! d suddenly goes into half tempo... and comes back strong... nice one! Seventh track is by Infected .. its the Merlin (global cut mix).. very similar to the one on Tsunami...Eight one is by Martinez Bros vs DJ Robert...this one I didnt like at all..This one is too cheezy for me.. didnt like it.. key changes too much in key.. and it sounds like a remix of a pop track " Take My Love" ! Ninth track is another Future Prophecy track...This track breaks into this melody for a long time... and gets back into the groove...! Tenth track is another Freeze track...I must say .. I never heard of the group freeze.. but I am impressed in the work they did...Nice melodies... nice thought... The eleventh track is a Power Source track..I like this one.. this has some really nice melodies towards the end of the track..and closing the first cd with track Twelve by Asura...very melodic and it has a very nice break with some guy singing some religious chants... altogether this CD has a couple of nice ones.. but they are not too much goa/psy.. they have a lot of melodies.. and some of them sound a little clubby The Second CD.. the 2nd track Green House Effect - State Of Mind... nice morning track... after the sun has risen.. great melodies...the 5th track by Trivia is nice compared to the other stuff I have heard of Trivia... it has some wierd melodies... which makes it kinda nice... melodies that are pitched and going in these wierd directions with a stompy bassline and kickdrum...a nice break is also present in this track.! the Sixth track is by Xerox..its a very short one.. mixed into a track from Emuna.. I didnt like these ones..The Xerox And Duvdev track is a killer...it has this very nice sample.. "No Human being has every experienced".. basically Disc 2 has some songs which are also on disc one... It has some nice tracks but some of them are too clubby and not too much my style since I am more into the evil/dark sound..on the whole i would give this compilation 7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TRISTAN Posted October 10, 2000 Share Posted October 10, 2000 DIDN'T LIKE IT AT ALL. I gotta disagree with you now Jeto. That style sucks! 0.25/100000000000000000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest psy[at]persogo.com[dot]br Posted October 10, 2000 Share Posted October 10, 2000 The comp. is full of Club trance... thats it! Diferent style! Just this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jsbedard Posted October 10, 2000 Share Posted October 10, 2000 You want my opinion ? HOM-MEGA Records really sucks. Eyal Yankovick is a real cheeze-o-man. The good israeli stuff is dying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Eyal Yankovich Posted October 10, 2000 Share Posted October 10, 2000 You know, everybody seems to forget that HOMmega is an ISRAELI trance label and that they are sometimes trying to make products that "Expose" them to their local surroundings and not just worldwide. Israel is a place where sometimes it's very hard for people to feel "uplifted". That?s where the music comes in! It says on the cover that it?s CLUB TRAX, so why are you surprised? our main goal is High Quality Israeli Psy Trance but along the way of releasing very good PSYCHEDELIC music, We try to release a variety of softer, more friendly music which draws new people to the scene by accessing them to our set of sounds, our story telling BUT minus the psychedelia! What happens later is like with so many of you(me included)... your system is ?overloaded with joy" and you move on to the Intelligent, "On The Move" music dictated by leading DJ's And record companies. I respect evolution; I played all around the globe and my set as a DJ is always high quality! BUT one of my major concerns as a trance label manager is to always draw new people to our scene as it is the smallest movement and is in constant fight with the main stream music that collects new people every day. You can call it "Commercialism" but we prefer to think that we keep the trance music accessible And alive!!! Sincerely Yours, DJ Eyal Yankovich, HOMmega Productions.

Guest jsbedard Posted October 10, 2000 Share Posted October 10, 2000 "Accessibility" is never a way to follow in music development. It always lead to comercialism, simplification and cheezification of music. The trance is going really BAD this times, if you compare them to the 97-98 years...All stuff is minimal, too smiple and repetitive. Artists seems to have stop progress and start regress. What's the fucking problem ? AREN'T YOU PSYCHEDELIC TRANCE ARTIST OR FUCKIN MINIMAL TECHNO bastards 12345±£@¢¤!/$% damn help me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ceo Posted October 11, 2000 Share Posted October 11, 2000 Eyal, you can call it what you want and look for different ways to describe it, but you, me and many others know what this compilation is...it's commercial trance. It's bizarre to see so many quality psy-trance acts around willing to take part in a project like this! Each to his own (i guess), my comment's = if you like quality psy-trance, stay waway from this! 2/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alter9[at]netvision.net[dot]il Posted October 11, 2000 Share Posted October 11, 2000 this comp is really not so bad with some good track but its not so full with energy and the good psy and hard trance, infected mushroom one of my favorite artist with a crappy track sound like house and not so good but i'm sure they will will improve and the next released track will be a good one 6.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest omega604[at]goatrance[dot]com Posted October 16, 2000 Share Posted October 16, 2000 I listened to it from start to end in the store and decided not to buy it because its not what I like. Don't come around bitching because it's clubtrance. For Christ's sake the name of the comp is "Clubber". What did you expect? This release does not affect the fact that Hommega has released a lot of good compilations over the years and that Eyal is one hell of a kickass DJ. As for the artists, as in anything, a little variety is fun from time to time. I understand them full well for taking part in this project. So it's clubtrance. You don't like, don't buy it. It has never been marketed for anything else than what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jsbedard Posted October 19, 2000 Share Posted October 19, 2000 In my own opinion, i you REALLY look for kicking-ass psy-trance, psychedelic pure energy, look for stuff on 3D Vision french label. It's the only label that kick ass presently! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mrsyed Posted October 29, 2000 Share Posted October 29, 2000 Frankly, I enjoyed the 2nd CD a whole lot. DJ Eyal needs to have a pat on the back for such cohesive beat matched set. The thing here is that none of the tracks overstay their welcome, so by transitioning to another track you would feel as if the music has taken another shade of emotion. I would agree it's not psy trance, but it does not claim to be. Read the cover, it says club and Deep Trance. No psy, just quality melodic and most importantly emotional trance that a lot better than the crappy european trance thats out there. Also a whole lot better than those boring, monotonous, unemotional minimal trance thats being touted as Psy Trance. I would take this over that anytime and I like good dark Psy Trance. 10/10 for the mix CD, 7/10 for the 1st CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest U Posted November 9, 2000 Share Posted November 9, 2000 I don't know why Hommega thinks that this will raise their accesiblitiy to the crowd... When you take PsyTrance artits and make then produce ClubTrance trax, the result is poor for bouth sides (take AP's "Burning up" track for example). I was really disappointed by the Infected and I-Zen trax, i expected more. All and all, expect for the first track, which is very good clubtrance, there's nothing here for the Psytrance lover.

Guest Dieu[at]schisme[dot]com Posted January 10, 2001 Share Posted January 10, 2001 The first, the 6th and the last tracks are the best in this compilation, which doesn't know where to go: Ministry of Sound releases' touch or commercial Psytrance? The first opus try to reproduct the sound and the Spirit of Ferry Corsten, with no success, but not so bad. And the last one aims at reaching the spirit of melodic and melancolic israeli Trance products , and reach to, I feel. All the other Tracks, execept Sleepers are bad House-FM, a really sucking copy of what the English do well, by example. But, I think Hommega tried to get accessible the Trance Music, and has to be sustain and help for that. Good vibes Hommega, ear you soon for a better Clubber 2!

Guest FelipeLysergicProBrasil Posted January 30, 2001 Share Posted January 30, 2001 I like this compilation,different kind of Psytrance,but the Xerox vs Duvdev, Future Prophecy tracks, Sleeper, I-Zen vs Yahel are perfect!!Try to hear it in home or in the car...OH,i'm feeling in Heaven!!Thanx Dj Eyal,keep the good work...Hom-mega ruuuuules!!

Guest matsubishi[at]genie.co[dot]uk Posted February 15, 2001 Share Posted February 15, 2001 My opinion is that most people who wrote in saying things like "fucking shit psy" and "cheezy crap" want their heads cutting off. music scenes dont progress with dickheads like you, with your shitty puritan attitudes and up-own-arse comments. idiots like you almost killed british clubbing and seriously fucked up the whole trance thing. just shut up and enjoy something a bit different. After all only a total twat buys the same album 100 times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest moander[at]media[dot]mit[dot]edu Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 stop dissing clubs! There are clubs here in paris that play logic bomb/hux flux/3dvision get played on a regular basis, every week! You guys just don't know where to find the cool clubs I aggree with the person above who said "how can psy artists accept to make this shit?!" I can tell you how: MONEY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Patient nr 001 Posted January 10, 2002 Share Posted January 10, 2002 I do hope that all these guys win lots of money, not only because they deserve but also because if so, maybe they can actualise his Equipment, maybe they can getting more Inspiration (for seing is work recognized) and maybe they can make even better "Material" (it will be hard:) Unfortunately, i'm not able to describe the Style or the Tunes so i don't know if "Clubber" was made by Psy Artists or not...!...Anyway, what i can say, as a listener, is that it was made by GREAT ARTISTS !!! Any Doubts ?!? Take a look to the Line Up, please...!!!...About cd 1, all tracks are EXCELLENT but my favourites are: 1,3,4,6,7 (also integreted on "In my Brain" Compilation) and the FANTASTIC 12 (a magistral finish by Asura) !!! On Cd 2, prevails the feeling that it was "mixed" by a "Master's Hand", but i don't know from WHO Since i first "Contact - Clubber", i'm waiting for the 2nd Episode...!...KEEP ON !!!

Guest inerbee Posted May 2, 2002 Share Posted May 2, 2002 I like it psytrance or not, and i'm happy to hear something different! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatsu Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 I like this compilation a lot, in fact it's one of my alltime favourites... The style is very soft, i would call this good morning trance, maybe even clubtrance. But hey, it's called Clubber so what else did you expect!? Anyway, there is no track on it i dislike like but my absolute favourites are Pure Energy from Domestic and Asterix, Ministering Angels from Yahel and IZen, Merlin from IM and best of the best Future Prophecy with Viva. One melody of this track sounds like the one from Indra remix also from Future Prophecy, what a killer!! Second CD mixed by Eyal is also good. A lot of tracks are the same as on the first CD but the mixing is really great so I don't mind. If Hommega brings out a second chapter of Clubber, in the same style, I'll sure buy it without any hesitation!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
