Guest Mindbender Posted January 22, 2000 Share Posted January 22, 2000 This is a good compilation of old school Goa. I like tracks 2, 6 and 7 particularly, but Angelic Particles (t5) is mindblowing. Once I was sitting in the backseat of my friends car with it on full blast and I felt my body splitting in two, but staying at the same place, just in two different 'dimensions' at the same time. I could see those two 'dimensions' at the same time on top of each other and they were slightly different. Then as the song progressed, the two parts of me separated and formed these funny aerodynamical forms. What a trippy song... The whole compilation deserves 6/10.

Guest utopia_x[at]infonie[dot]be Posted April 30, 2000 Share Posted April 30, 2000 Well,2 killer tracks,number 1 is simply amazing and gathers 3 keys of my favourite sounds ( melodic,intense and vocal), number 2 of course is awesome like most of A.P tracks ( distinctive and mind blowing).Track 5 is very good but not incredible ( the contrast between the roughness of crude electronic samples and angelic atmosphere is way too important ).Track 6 is pure hardcore psychedelic music but remains very ok.Track 7 may seem at the beginning pretty weird but it has some interesting egyptian-arabian twisted sounds.Track 9 is a french goa composition,not the best though but well trippin'g.

Guest clark_303 Posted July 1, 2000 Share Posted July 1, 2000 Much better than the first Distance to Goa-compilation. All songs are at least good. The best songs are, of course, Angelic Particles by the god of sound, Hallucinogen and Free Lemonade by Total Eclipse. The worst songs are 2 and 4, they're not original at all. The Astral Projection track is way too happy and sounds like some children's music...it has some good moments too but it's way too bright and happy. I'm a big fan of AP but this song isn't working well. The 4th song is based on the acid line and doesn't really offer anything else. This is a good compilation and doesn't sound dated at all.-Clark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest protamine[at]infonie[dot]fr Posted September 29, 2000 Share Posted September 29, 2000 GOOD...GREAT STUFF, goods tracks: free lemonade by [total éclipse], Moonstone by [spectral]...

Guest Acidhive Posted April 27, 2001 Share Posted April 27, 2001 This comp only has great tracks on it! This was also the very first goa I ever heard. A friend borrowed this from one of his friends and we listened it at my place.. Damn, new doors opened in my mind when I listened to track 1... Track 2... Track 3... and so on! Then we got to the Hallucinogen track and I thought I'd gone up to a higher level of consciousness... Damn, this is good! This comp still has a special place in my heart somewhere, so I'll give this 9/10.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spock27[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted September 15, 2001 Share Posted September 15, 2001 :-] I just find that all the CD's of the series "Distance to Goa" are amazing. I just begun with the CD 1, then I heard the second whic was great too. By chance, one week ago I was able to hear the two cd's of the Vol. IV and the Vol. IX and it's still great, not monotone at all in my humble opinion. The vibes are there and the tracks are carefully chose. I didn't know that there was still a public for this kind of old techno, but I just stay open to the same sonic waves. Trance Goa rules. If you like Trance Goa ,try the sample "hypnotics sounds vol. I" which is great too :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
