Review:

 

And here it is, Set 2 from Iboga. It was about time Iboga did another one of

their cool cd's. Starts off good with the XV Kilist remix of the well known

track Erdbeer Kiwi. This one is like the original, only with a XV Kilist

flavour ofcourse. Yummy. Orion kicks off with 2 smooth tracks that sound a bit

like the new Israeli style (as you would hear in Astrix or Atomic Pulse) but

this definately has that Orion flavour. Very good. The Fabel Remix of New

Breed is dark, brooding, pumping... Just the way I like it. Phony Orphants

continue in that style, dark, brooding and a little more funky. Der Hall is a

pumping little track with a bit of Zerotonine like flavour over it all. Llopis

re-edits Aquanauts which result in a pumping minimal track with atmospheric

layers of dark pad sounds. Necton remix It Did from Reefer Decree quite well,

the joke in this song is that Necton's kickdrums are waaay harder than

Reefer's, and they even paste a small part of Reefer's original in there,

which gets disrupted and suddenly Necton beats you up again. One of the harder

songs on here. Slugger ends it all in a relaxed, housey vibe, normally I don't

really dig this style, but this was not bad... Not bad at all! Nice work,

Martin. Anyway, down to the score.

8,5/10 from me, and a real reccomendation for those in love with the Iboga

style.. :-)
