Review:

 

As a big fan of Dragon Tales 1 & 2, i was excited when I got my hands on the

3rd part of this quality compilation. So, here we go:

Track 1: Nice opening Track by this guy (who is quite unknown to me), with a

nive groovey feel, bouncy rythem and a soft tuch. It's even a little bit

clubby IMO but not too much. Anyway, nothing too special, but still a good

track that get's you into the groove of the CD.

Track 2: This track is a good track with a simple bassline and minamlistic

elements (which i tend to like). At the beginning i thought it was a bit

boring, but after a few listening sessions I realized that it developes very

nicely and towards the end of the track it gets pretty interesting.

Track 3: Now here we have a much darker track with more psychedelic

elements. This is really good track - Excellent for scary full-moon nights.

Track 4: This is an interesting track. It combines a soft minimaltribal

tuch (like in track 1), with dark and psychedelic sounds, all on top of a

simple bassline. I like it...........

Track 5: An ok track by Necmi (who are these guys). Nothing special here.

Just the same old soft, minimalistic, slightly clubby and well produced

sound. A bit dissapointing...

Track 6: Well, you can't go wrong with Magnetrixx. This is a really good,

driving/pumping track that makes me wanna dance. Typical Mangnetrixx sound

which always get's me in a good mood.

Track 7: For me, this is the low point of the Compilation. I've always liked

source unknown but this just doesn't fit in. It has a much harder sound

then all the other tracks, and it's kinda boring. It's an ok track on it's

own (quite dark and progressive), but it does'nt have the same vibe as the

rest of the tracks on this CD. It just doesn't fit in.

Track 8: Well, another track by Necmi, and I must say, This Track Rocks!

Best track of the CD IMO. It has a pumpming bassline, dark atmosphere,

psychedelic elements, tribal elements, electrifying sound and a good

production. Excellent Track!

Track 9: This track is a good way to end this Comp'. It is also guite dark

and pumpming, with some wicked sounds on top to spice it up. But most

importantly, this track leaves you with a taste four more...

So. This is a very good compilation by tatsu, and it certainley lives up to

the standrads set by the two previous Dragon Tales cd's.

Minimal lovers, gut this cd and get it now! Best Tracks are 3,4,6,8.

Overall Rating (9/10)!

This is the best copilation i have bought for a long time. The two necmi tracks

are awsome, as are the first two tracks. If you like the magnetrixx sound you

will love this, all very well produced, with anice warm electric feel. The

source unknown track is the worst, but still not too bad, and the 2nd necmi

track is one of the best tunes in the last year imo. Exelent release, best so

far in the dragon tales series. 9/10

Except for SOURCE UNKNOWN & Orhsten Norrs.

i think the tracks are boring, no soul.

boring techno shit. not appealing to me at all.

 

all though, Ryan Halifax and the Necmi tracks, there are bass and kick, like

there should be,,, but to me it just sounds like they don't know what

powerfull tools these are.

they just use them in such a boring way.

Full on, is dead yes. Its just becoming "Mad", too much, it just makes it a

bnit cheezy, all the crying babies, and roaring monsters, grow up, go and

listen to some hard house or some thing equally as bad!. Minimal groove is the

future!!! More like this please, 9/10

Well I don't have the first 2 releases from this series and I decide to buy the

3 rd one. I was really disappointed. This is just shit. Beg German techno or

boring minimal trance. I just expected more. Bed samples and simple bass

lines. The first and the last track are just pure shit. The Necmi tracks are

low average semi psychedelic tracks with no point at all. The best track here

is from Magnetrixx. I give 3.5/10
