Guest Baboon Posted July 17, 2001 Share Posted July 17, 2001 V/A - Electrum Artist: Various Title: Electrum Label: Alchemy Date: 2001 Track listing: 01. 09'06" Bent Sentitent : Coursing Through My Brain 02. 08'11" Mumbo Jumbo : Bubble And Squeek 03. 08'05" Miraculix : Energise 04. 07'41" Neuromotor : Chaotic Systematic 05. 07'40" AFROE : Shock Hazzard 06. 07'31" Sinister Funk : Funky Doodle 07. 08'12" Deviant Species : Carrier 08. 07'14" Miraculix : Blow Your Mind 09. 07'29" Dark Soho : Sunspot Review: This comp is compiled by DJ Shane Gobi, and contains 9 unreleased real powerfull psychedelic full on tracks. I like this one very much, many tracks from some new and not so established artists. Electrum is a constructed journey into the heart of the worlds underground trance scene. Best track is probably Miraculix - Energise or Neuromotor - Chaotic Systematic...hard to chose =) I think the album is worth an 8/10. Enjoy!!!

Guest ronin[at]shpongle[dot]com Posted July 17, 2001 Share Posted July 17, 2001 This is one of those CD that will remind you of the power of Psytrance. Sinister sounds to remove the vails of conciousnees that will ultimatly lead to the reprograming of your minds.Ah ho.........HERE COMES TROUBLE!!!!!!!

Guest zimi[at]goatrance[dot]net Posted July 17, 2001 Share Posted July 17, 2001 Very well chosen for this comp.! I agree with baboon. Miraculix & Neuromotor kick ass by damaging the brain to the max. Big thanks for this record. 7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shahar@isratrance Posted December 30, 2001 Share Posted December 30, 2001 A new young label based in England and ran by DJ Shane Gobi from South Africa. Good vibes here, and mostly good full on morning sounds. Bent sentinent, a first South African group I hear with a great driving morning tune full of uplifting power. I want more from them. Mumbo Jumbo with a nice psychedelic yet clubby tune, nice grooves and an hysteric finish. Still, not the best of the duo. We also have a new discovery here- Miraculix with two full on energetic scratchy and melodic killers- Energise (T3) & Blow Your Mind (T. I haven't connected to this kind of music for a long long time, and it's nice for me that it happens again. This is a name I'm gonna follow. I understand there's a full length expected in Alchemy soon, he just has to work on the sound. We have Neuromotor with a sample from his crazy chaotic trance, just as the name suggests, he delivers the goods. A.F.R.O.E. with a mash of blips and scratches that somehow doesn't melt into something complete. Then Sinister Funk, here Ofer with Bansi, with a nice track, great scratching sounds that really do it to me but the build is not overwhelming. Deviant Species with their amazing Carrier, a fast powerful track with a happy driving bounce, toyish sounds, and a totally psychedelic atmosphere. Dark Soho finish the story and deliver a scary massive track with great rhythm games and the expected scary gothic feel. Bottom Line: Good dancing material, the right amount of power, and a nice start for a new label. They just released their second release, I'll look it up. Favorites: 1, 3, 7, 8, 9.

Guest Genetix Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 Guys this one of the best compilation ever released. Great underground tunes now available on CD!!!!! Every track here is awesome. Here are my favorites: (t3) this was the first track that I heard from Miraculix. Great nighttime tune but only for outdoor parties. It has one interesting sample before the track start to punch your brain: "Here comes trouble" (t4) Quite good track from Neuromotor. Also very energetic hard full on track. (t5) Best track here. Woow what a track. Who is standing behind this project? I want more. After hearing this track, my DJ set starts with this track. (t7) best track from their album. Brain killing nighttime tune. Just perfect. (t8) another great track from these guys. And another track for out-door parties. Other tracks are very good too. I give 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
