Would probably add:

 

Human Blue - Ice (especially Breaking Limits)

 

Slide - Unstable

 

Tandu - Multimoods

 

Chakra & Edi Mis - The Promised Land

 

and Johann Bley - Signs and Signals (Yes, I know you don't fancy guitars all that much, but this is just my opinion ;))

I wonder if the starter of this topic is still reading this, but it's always great to name my favorites :P :

 

- Infected Mushroom - Classical Mushroom (I can't imagine anyone not liking this one)

- Talpa - The Art of being Non

- Prometheus - Robot-O-Chan

- Voice of Cod - We Are Free

- Cosmosis - Cosmology or Trancendance (quite depends on your taste in psytrance, it's all great anyway)

All the essential old-school albums have already been mentioned... So here's some recommendations from recent years. I've tried to compile my lists with stuff that's not already been mentioned - that's why I've got so little Twisted releases on my list...

 

Progressive:

Perfect Stranger – Learning = Change (2006)

FREq - Strange Attractor (2004)

P.O.T.S. – Creating Social Success (2005)

Kooler - Open (2004)

Meller - Rockable (2005)

 

Melodic:

Derango - Tumult (2005)

The Misted Muppet - From The Legend (2004)

Tron - Existence (2006)

Filteria - Heliopolis (2006)

Voice Of Cod - We Are Free (2005)

 

Essential cross-over:

Tegma - Around The World In 80 Minutes (2006)

Artifakt – Artifakts II (2005)

Juno Reactor - Labyrinth (2004)

Shpongle - Nothing Lasts... But Nothing Is Lost (2005)

Luomuhappo - Pog-o-Matic Pogomen 3000000 (2004)

 

Chilled:

H.U.V.A. Network - Distances (2004)

Kaya Project - Walking Through (2004)

Solar Fields - Leaving Home (2005)

Capsula - Synthesis Of Reality (2005)

Entheogenic - Dialogue Of The Speakers (2005)

2. Spirallianz - Blast Food

3. Juno Reactor - Transmissions

4. Schlab - v. 5

5. Colorbox - Train to Chroma City

Whoww! You have "Train to Chroma city"! I haven't still found it, but I'm sure at 200% it's a grandious album, as I have both "Grey Spook" tracks which are more than excellent! :)

Yeah, it's a great, great album. The Grey Spook tracks are good, but there are a few on the album that rock even more. And oddly enough, it's one of the few CDs I bought from a chain store in the late 90s (Tower Records).

514521[/snapback]

Here I am :)

 

My list:

 

Hallucinogen: The Lone Deranger

Transwave: Phototropic

Etnica: Plastic/Vimana (EP)

Man With No Name: Moment Of Truth (or) Earth Moving the Sun

Koxbox: Dragon Tales

 

In reality, the 2 albums at the top are my top 2, and after that, there's a lot of albums on the same level, good all the way through but not exceptional.

 

One might say like this: top 5's are pointless in this genre, simply because there is so much that sounds so similar, and such a good overall quality.

 

But i tried to pick some albums of unique styles.

Oh, radi, I'm disappointed. In the Mix was, is, and forever will be, awful. It was such a cash-in. I think you should go without any pudding for a few days and reflect on the error of your ways.

The guy is asking about the classics and people are giving him names like Derango,Psykovski,Texas Faggot,Xenomorph,Bigwigs,Artifakt,Psysex and more,i even saw Menog somewhere if i am not mistaken....

 

People the word CLASSICS doesnt mean 'what are your favorite albums' but albums that are considered as milestones in psy trance and that people will remember even after 20 years from today.

 

With all the respect to the artists who the fuck is going to remember Penta and Kindzandza in 2026?

 

Absofuckinglutely noone.

 

But people will remember artists like Juno Reactor,Hallucinogen,Man With No Name,Koxbox,Astral Projection,Total Eclipse,Etnica,Pleiadians,X Dream,Electric Universe,Transwave,MFG,California Sunshine and some more SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY MADE TRUE CLASSIC TRACKS AND NOT JUST SOME NICE OR EVEN GOOD TUNES.

 

So back to the original topic...

 

Juno Reactor-Odyssey

This is actually a best of compilation by Juno with tracks like Conga Fury (included in the Matrix soundtrack),Pistolero (one of the most original psy trance tunes ever),Rotorblade,Masters Of The Universe,God Is God and more.This is a cd full of CLASSICS so instead buying Bible Of Dreams or Shango (that are not so easy to find in our days) you can buy this one and if you like it (you will if you like good music) you can search for the rest of the Juno discography.

 

Man With No Name-Teleportation

This is a classic album containing one of the best and most recognised psy trance tunes of all times,the majestic Teleport plus many other classics like the remix on Greece 2000,actually its mostly a best of album by Martin since many tracks were released on other cds at the time but still an essential release.

 

Hallucinogen-Twisted

Although The Lone Deranger can be considered as an equally classic release the first tune on the Twisted album the magical LSD is the reason i am reffering to this release.Psy trance cant get much better than this cd.

 

Transwave-Phototropic

Ten years have passed from this release but this is still considered one of the best cds ever released and people cant wait for the upcoming Transwave album after many many years.No words to describe tunes like Land Of Freedom and Malaka Dance.

 

Total Eclipse-Violent Relaxation

One of the best albums released and yes its a double one.Psy trance and chill out and ambient music like you have never heard it before.A true gem in any psy trance fun collectro.Thanks to Avatar for rereleasing again this double cd.

 

You asked for five albums so here are my suggestions.

 

Dont forget though to check out the israeli releases by Astral Projection,MFG and California Sunshine along with some other legendary acts like Indoor,Tandu,Chakra and Edi Mis and even Mystica and Power Source for the goa trance fans.

 

Ofcourse no need to praise X Dream,Electric Universe,Koxbox and Etnica,i mean their older releases are classic rarities and some people pay a lot of money for them and this is not just a coincidence ;)

 

There are many other names i havent mentioned like Deedrah,Dino Psaras,Joti,Tristan,Prometheus and more but if you are really interested into discovering good psy trance i am preety sure you will find them in your way.
