Guest Pit-UFO Posted February 11, 2001 Share Posted February 11, 2001 Yumade - Danz Ego Artist: Yumade Title: Danz Ego Label: Shpastic Elastic Date: 2001 Track listing: 01. 09'03" Pit Fits Fizz 02. 07'10" Danz Ego 03. 07'09" The Tube 04. 07'40" Mr Ness 05. 07'29" Modern Terms 06. 07'44" Witch Bedd ?? 07. 08'00" None For Child 08. 06'11" True Broken Fields 09. 06'00" Digestive (Rmx) Review: Mad music from the French masters of minimal techno. Impossible to describe each track. All of them have something special and are filled with hard lines, acid soundz, confusing moments and those subliminal kicking drums and idiotic baselines that characterized this guys and Paps. My favs "Pit Fits Fiss" and "Modern Term"s. Not for sensible Morning Music lovers or guys still in love with the old school, this is a piece of the future. Good or bad? You choose.... 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DJ Spottycat Posted February 11, 2001 Share Posted February 11, 2001 This is an okay album, but nothing that I would say highlights my vinyl collection. The key word in Pit-UFO's review is minimal. It has lots of weird trippy noises over a really hard beat, and that's it. It sounded alright to me after I'd taken a hell of a lot of psilocybe cubensis, but normally it's pretty boring. Definately doesn't deserve 8 out of 10. I'd give it 6.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mars Posted February 11, 2001 Share Posted February 11, 2001 this is very VERY minimal. my favourite: "Witch Bed?" which has an excellent groove. The rest is too minimalist for me... 5/10. Album really for minimalism lovers...really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Syre Posted February 16, 2001 Share Posted February 16, 2001 It rocks! Since I love minimalistic this is the very best thing. Great work! 10/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ehsanur Posted March 17, 2001 Share Posted March 17, 2001 Rather ugly cover and whats this crap about minimalistic music, soon there won't be anything left in future tracks. It will be utterly silent and then you guys can celebrate your minimalistic revolt! :-! Eshanti Brahman (changed my nickname) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cnt97 Posted March 20, 2001 Share Posted March 20, 2001 Major disapointment I must say. Pit Fits Fizz is the best track I guess... but a very WEAK album I think. Boring I'm afraid. I love other Yumade tracks, but they are not on this album... WEAK 4/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MK Posted April 5, 2001 Share Posted April 5, 2001 I found it to be a very good album; stomach twirling, twisting and contorting noises are intertwined around consistent phat beats. Found it to be deep and wonderful - worth the asking price + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathPosture Posted April 5, 2001 Share Posted April 5, 2001 I've waited SOOOOOO long for this album, and I was VERY happy when I finally got it about a month ago... PeÁ and the crew are the MASTERS of minimalism along with Wizzy Noise and XVK... This is the soundtrack for 2001... Very, very nice.... 7.9/10!

Guest Goa Spirit Posted April 5, 2001 Share Posted April 5, 2001 Dissapointing,,,,, very dissapointing.. there are no tracks which stick out in my mind.. and when you make dance floor oriented music like yumade, then it is really surprising that absolutely no track stuck out in my head... Modern Terms is an o.k. track.. but then again even that one is very simple and can be made with a couple of hours at your computer,, way tooo simple... after tracks like fluffin side, this lets us down.,, 5/10.

Guest djpsychedelicman[at]marijuana[do Posted April 6, 2001 Share Posted April 6, 2001 I like used to like yumade tracks, like tripiatrik rmx, fluffin in side, torez taal, etc, BUT this new album is not really what i was expecting ... none real killer track... Maybe modern terms is good to listen, but do not work good at dancefloor... 3.5/10 Maybe they can make something better next time/...

Guest AMP - heirofset[at]yahoo[dot]com Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 They are great. I really enjoy their jump style music, with a happy beat into it. From Tripiatrik, Snug as a Bug and Yumade, the last is my favourite style. I look forward to watch them on 4th of May. Good one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anybodyawake[at]wonderland[dot]b Posted April 30, 2001 Share Posted April 30, 2001 Come on guys, you canr do techno, youre sound is not good enough for it, and theres no creativity in this so called trance.All you people who like this style will feel really stupid in a few years.I hope.

Guest tobias[at]trance[dot]nu Posted May 1, 2001 Share Posted May 1, 2001 Whats this talk about that this album is sooo minimalistic ive heard albums that are way more minimalistic than this. My opinion is that this album´is very good. It will get 7/10 from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AMP - heirofset[at]yahoo[dot]com Posted May 4, 2001 Share Posted May 4, 2001 I personally like the old Yumade style, but this new CD is very cool to hear in parties. I just went to a Yumade/ Tripiatrik live act last night, and it was really cool. Great beats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mescalinium Posted June 7, 2001 Share Posted June 7, 2001 I apologize in advance for getting off on a rant here, but I feel I must rebuke those who completely dismiss minimalism. Minimalism is/was a complete artistic/architectural/musical (etc.) revolution which sought to redefine the boundaries of these and other respective aesthetic fields. In the area of trance, I do concede that some efforts have gone too far in their reduction of sound but at the same time I believe minimalism has been positive in expanding the limits of "trance" music. Again, sorry about this diatribe. On to Yumade. I saw Yumade live back in march in New York and I thought they put on a very good show. They played for more than 3 hours (!). However, when I listened to a lot of their singles and this album at home, I was a little disappointed. While I normally hate making the distinction that something is "only good for parties", I'm afraid personal experience must classify Yumade's music as this. I found their deep groovy beats to be very satisfying at a party, but lacking on my computer. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Cocco Posted July 10, 2001 Share Posted July 10, 2001 Minimalism is not Goa! Don't you people understand the whole concept of Psy Trance / Goa. To be tranced and go somewhere else doesn't revolve around a bunch of hard, techno throbbing beats with mixed in acid, scratchy sounds. What is wrong with everyone??? In my country, the USA, I have to listen to that hip hop/ pop rock crap and it makes me sick. Our countries music is so commercial that almost everyone listens to and loves the pop rock retart scene. Actually, us Americans don't even have a scene, we suck so much. But when I hear most minimal music, it scares me to think that there is such boring, commercial music in your countries (Europe, Isreal,etc) as well. Yumade is shit that I, as well as most of you people, can create over the computer in a couple days, probably less. I can't believe you guys debate what is or isn't minimal over such crap. Yumade is shit- and I am not even putting down the whole minimal wave, even though most of it is cheap shit that is rushed to flood the shelves so that party heads and narrow minded butt nuts can buy it up, and dance to pure monotony that is disguised by both high volume and a good sound system. There is so much better stuff out there- seriously. Yumade is only deep if your on crack. DO YOU ENJOY YOU COMMERCIAL CRAP THAT NO ONE WILL GIVE TWO SHITS FOR A COUPLE WEEKS FROM NOW??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest re_psycle[at]yahoo[dot]com Posted July 12, 2001 Share Posted July 12, 2001 Jon Cocco - i would be most interested to hear some of the "shit" that u "could write on a computer in a couple of days, or less" .....- genuinely, please mail me if it is even half as good as the stuff that yumade/tripiatrik/snug produce then im sure alot of labels would appreciate your demo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest **InFeCTed XeN** Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 This piece of shit is too much in the same way, literally like just: boom boom boom....... and I could repeat myself a hundred times without any melogic sense that matters - if you absolutely gotta hear psytrance like this, go listen to Paps instead.......... 5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shag Posted August 20, 2001 Share Posted August 20, 2001 FUCKIN' GREAT CD i'll give it 8/10..... expand your mind ppl and give minimalistic a chanse...you will love it... I thought GOA was a plase in asia???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rokkitz Posted November 25, 2001 Share Posted November 25, 2001 wow, this is still going on? heh... i too think this is a wild piece of weirdness... HAS ANYONE LOOKED AT THE COVER UNDER BLACKLITE? and what's the picture of them chasing cows on the back cover... what they've chosen to visually represent themselves speaks volumes for their music... it's green, kinda weird, sounds good under blacklight and seriously silly... i like goa and psy trance of all sorts, and judge things based on context... minimal has its own context, both in party and out... a good set of headphones and a release like 'danz ego' makes long nights of study bearable, and possible... its weirdness seeps in subliminally and helps expand my creative problem solving problems... i can understand how some people wouldn't like it, but at least listen to it in the right frame of mind... i don't understand how anyone can claim that yumade is so crappy that it doesn't stir any emotion... that's not always the point... the point is to stir interesting meditations and brainwaves patterns, and see where the pieces fall from there...
