Guest Infected Max Posted March 2, 2000 Share Posted March 2, 2000 V/A - Ultra High Frequency Artist: Various Title: Ultra High Frequency Label: 3D Vision Date: 1999 Track listing: 01. 08'20" Elixir : E Motion 02. 08'01" Systembusters : Synthetic Garbage 03. 08'47" Wizzy Noise : Twisted Love 04. 10'00" Absolum : Goldfinger 05. 06'15" Three Point Turn : By Any Means Necessary 06. 07'38" DJ Maël And Manitu : Zergshake 07. 08'25" Deedrah : Sibling Uncovered 08. 09'00" Yumade : Black Sun 09. 11'11" Absolum : Smoking Kangaroos Review: Wow!!! This Cd definitely worth a review (i only review cds i loooove). It comes from 3D vision...created by Cristof (ex-Transwave) the most active label in French Trance. All the tracks are from France except Wizzy Noise from Greece. There's 3 OUTSTANDING tracks in this compilation (3,4,7). The best is for sure Goldfinger from Absolom. Fat bass like X-Dream And incredible squizzy sounds...at the end when the sonic fury comes you can hear a little gril afraid And shouting....what a sensation!!! The Wizzy Noise is 3iincredible.....lot of dark chorus very dark And frightening.....awesome!!!! The Deedrah is harder to understand but after 10 listened you are addicted.. Elixir And Three Point Turn And Yumade are done for parties for sure!! I already heard them in a Paris party And they makes you move your ass!! The rest is not my taste...as always in compilation there's few tracks deceiving.. That CD worth every $ you'll put to get it!!! 8/10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rough and Rush Posted March 5, 2000 Share Posted March 5, 2000 Yeah wicked allround. The first track E Motion is quite unlike anything I have heard before. the other track by Christof -gold finger is just short of amazing, two slow bits then it all goes crazy. when I first heard this song I was at a Christof gig and I had to go and ask him what it was because it got right under my skin!! Wizzy noise is always dark and stompy and the rest, well I will leave it up to you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Stathis_gti Posted March 7, 2000 Share Posted March 7, 2000 I have just bought this cd and until now i havent find something special in this compilation.Ok, it has nice fat bass and nice rhithm but nothing diferent.So far i liked Wizzy noise and Yumade tracks.Deedrah have tried to make something diferent here but not with big sucess in my opinion.I hope i like this cd more after some more listenings.

Guest GlobalSteez Posted April 20, 2000 Share Posted April 20, 2000 This is more like it! Nice powerful pumping tunes, not to over the top, but still POUNDING!!! The first two tunes are belters and it doesn't stop there. All the tracks are strong enough to warrant a listen. I haven't heard 'Smoking Kangeroos' cos it's not on the vinyl (annoying!!!) but I'm sure with a name like that, it's a cracker aswell 8/10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

freak51 3 Posted May 2, 2000 Share Posted May 2, 2000 The 3 Turn track is very good. Absolum absolutely rocks. But this is psychedelic techno, and pretty much sounds like any other psy-tech release (Heavy Machinery, the last half of Distance To Goa 8, etc). Perhaps it needs e or acid or something, because this all sounds too synthetic/chemical for my liking. There's a lot of data here, to be sure: you can't process it all in real-time the first time through. Also, I think there's rather too much bass in the equalization. Tentatively I'll give it 7/10 but I haven't really decided yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jsbedard Posted May 29, 2000 Share Posted May 29, 2000 VERY GOOD TRACKS from ELIXIR (diffrent from their old stuff), Systembusters and ABSOLUM. The album is not good and not bad, some tracks are excellents and others really sucks (Three Point Turn, Deedrah). I don't know what's the new "Three Point Turn-o-Mania" but this group don't know how to make a vibe. Their music leads nowhere and they makes no grooves or special rise-ups. If you're looking for 3D Vision sound-like, look for the new compilation "Lunar Civilisation" on Moon Spirits Records. Good work from Christof...8/10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest psycho_electro[at]hotmail[dot]co Posted June 21, 2000 Share Posted June 21, 2000 I dont know why you guys like this cd so much, i find it very boring after some listenings. I would prefer something more original...5/10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest boomwizard[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted September 25, 2000 Share Posted September 25, 2000 Great stuff here. Similar to Serial Killaz (tech trance) but I like this stuff especially Yumade, Systembusters and the DJ Maël And Manitu track really kicks 9/10. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest _megatron Posted November 10, 2000 Share Posted November 10, 2000 quite an amazing compilation here.. (released in 1999 btw) great kick and deep crunchy bass on most tracks...very dark material (Absolum's 'Goldfinger' anyone?), with 2 more 'experimental' tracks by 3turn and Deedrah (psy-jungle...pretty strange..i usually hate dnb but this one grew on me) 9/10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ubik Posted December 27, 2000 Share Posted December 27, 2000 Hum ? Not too similar to Serial Killaz, this has absolutely no industrial feeling to it. This is all pretty dark with a pounding bass, quite well done. Emotion is kinda cool, but has no direction. SystemBusters is cool, after that an amazing track by Wizzy Noise, their best I think, with a great atmopshere, and a killer melody. I don't really like the 3.turn track, but Deedrah's experiment is good. I like Yumade, hoping a lot from their upcoming album. 8/10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Acidhive Posted April 28, 2001 Share Posted April 28, 2001 I'll be short: 8,5/10 and this one rocks! It's not as good as Download, but still this one kicks ass! Elixir, Absolum and all the rest... Fucking amazing stuff here... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Quetzalgoatl Posted May 17, 2001 Share Posted May 17, 2001 The first 4 tracks are really dancefloor crackers!! Track number one is very original and indeed ultra high frequency, and therefore the best on this compilation. Worth buying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChrisdeeACiD Posted July 12, 2001 Share Posted July 12, 2001 Oh shit..... Sibling Uncovered is one oh the FATEST songs I've EVER heard... Man what a powerful pumping track! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ChrisdeeACiD Posted July 14, 2001 Share Posted July 14, 2001 Goldfinger.. Need I say more? That track by it self is probably worth the cost of this compilation.. Man what an unbelievable track! That's the kind of goatrance I've been looking for. Such extreem power with great rythm and sounds all the way! 9/10 for this comp. Perfect! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon Cocco 97 Posted August 8, 2001 Share Posted August 8, 2001 Elixir-great way to start off this album. That part that feels like a rocket flying by your head. You know...super cool. Wizzy Noise, something very special here. Some super dark, really deep bass, darK stuff. Some tracks are not that good, but the ones that are really kick ass. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Psychedelic AllabertA Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 I just wanna say that I listened to this CD when I was walking through the city, and when Goldfinger was playing I intentionally missed my bus and went about 2-3km on foot so the loud engine noise inside the bus wouldn't interfere with my breathtaking sonic experience... Btw. that was, like, the 10th time i was listening to that track! And I didn't feel weight in my legs at all!!! Cool, huh? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Penzoline 373 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 More of an experiemental VA from the times when full-on and other ebm genre influences started streaming into our psytrance. Overall too noisy and techno-influenced whilst having a couple of notable tracks. Only reason to even bother digging this up and commenting is this timeless masterpiece of a driving cyberpunk track. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaTwoupMYUk There's also the wizzy noise and absolum tracks which are nice, but otherwise this release is not worth a recommendation.

Trance2MoveU 414 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Artist: Various Title: Ultra-High Frequency Label: 3D Vision Date: September, 1999 01. 08'20" Elixir : E Motion02. 08'01" Systembusters : Synthetic Garbage03. 08'47" Wizzy Noise : Twisted Love04. 10'00" Absolum : Goldfinger05. 06'15" Three Point Turn : By Any Means Necessary06. 07'38" DJ Maël And Manitu : Zergshake07. 08'25" Deedrah : Sibling Uncovered08. 09'00" Yumade : Black Sun09. 11'11" Absolum : Smoking Kangaroos "Can anyone stop the mechanical mayhem?" I think you will discover exactly where it is stopped with this compilation. This was from the pre-millenium days of 3D vision and let's be honest it sounds a little dated. That said there is some goodness found here. Nomad & Absolum team up for a hallucination that is constantly evolving. The sound picture is kind of limited, but it's not bad. The Systembusters (GMS + Lotus Omega) get pretty drippy and psychedelic. Sure the track pretty much repeats the same loop over and over again, but who's counting? Wizzy crafts a dark track and one that I think holds up the best. Goldfinger is electric and crackling energy and just as quickly is broken down. A little heavy on the scream sample, but not a deal breaker. No, that comes next. Insert deal breaker. Clearly 3.Turn did not use any means necessary to make a deep track. More like just enough to get by. Zergshake is just noises amidst a kick and bassline. Deedrah's track was different, but hardly in an engaging way. Some drum n bass and dub along with some trance into a weird mixture. Don't need to hear that again. Black Sun was consistently boring and then there was the Kangaroo. Oh, the f*cking kangaraoo. *hits blunt* "Dude...if you get out of the shower all clean and shit...how does your towel get dirty?" That track is terrible and goes nowhere. It's so slow and makes me want to ask questions like that. Don't do drugs kids. Wow did that fade quickly. You can actually pinpoint the moment where the compilation went from interesting to GTFOH.
