Review:

 

Beautiful album from Ololiuqui here. If you're into his funky, dreamy kind of

psytrance, then you're in for a great ride along these landscapes that he's

created. From the completely funky and lovable Feel you know that you're in

for a treat, and what a treat this is, indeed. With great precision, and

thought out patterns and layers of sounds on top of each other, this is one

good album. I was always interested in the style of this artist, but somehow I

never could get a hold of his older work. But when I saw this one on psyshop,

and listened to the previews of the tracks, I knew I'd like this. And now,

having listened to it a couple of times I must say this is just really good!

An excellent way to forget the somewhat less DJ Sangeet effort, Spirit Zone is

right back on track with this release. A lot of people are probably gonna

shoot me for giving this the mark I'm gonna give it, but hey, I just happen to

like this style!! Wonderfully playful, funky and melodic from track 1 to track

9 (9 is more ambient like, with vocoder samples), that's Ololiuqui! Right

on... 9/10 here!!

Yeah, this album deserves more credit than it got... It was released in the midst of a minimal craze, but it sure has its moments... From the hardhitting techno intro tracks, to the lighter, more melodic pieces...

 

Not a masterpiece, but nice nevertheless.

Except for the first track all the others are very nice, not very memorable, but very enjoyable. Could easily be played in a "commercial" prog or trance even and it'd be the best muic played there!

 

8/10
