My first Post....Some suggestions please


NINFAN77

Recommended Posts

I want to start off by saying THANK YOU!!!! to everyone here at psynews.org. I've been a reader here, off and on now for a long time. I can't say enough about how much I've enjoyed reading. Not to mention all the great new music I've found all because of this great site. I don't know one other person in my whole city or state for that matter that even knows what psytrance is :( (Columbus, OH USA ) Well atleast I do, and I have all of you to thank for it. Thanks again.

Ok here's the deal I'm getting ready to make a CD order and I was hopeing I could get some help. I've bought a lot of CD's since I've been listening to Psy some good some not so good and some are just absolute GEMS. Which brings me to the point of this post. I'm hoping instead of buying say 50 CD's to only get a few great ones that I could make a smarter buy, by getting your suggestions and opinions first. My Goal here is to make a list of 10 absolute Gems.

Now I know the first problem we are going to run into is half of the gems out there today seem to be unavailible. So please when making suggestions only chose albums that can still be purchased. If there not availible at saikosounds or psyshop please let me know where it can be bought.

 

Here are the albums that I currently own in alphebetical order:

 

1200 Micrograms : self titled

Aes Dana : memory shell

Androcell : emotivision : efflorescence

Astral Projection : trust in trance

Astrix : artcore

Violet Vision : first sign of communication : unfold

Wizzy Noise : cyclotron : stereo electric

X-Dream : we created our own happiness : radio : we interface

Xenomorph : qlippoth

 

There you have it! That's my whole collection. I feel there's some I could do with out. But also some that I couldn't. I feel I have a few Gems in there. So what am I missing? I'm open to all styles. I'm just looking for your absolute favorites. That Album or Albums in your collection that just keeps making its way back into your player. Oh and of coarse is still availible for purchase today. Again my Goal is to get a list of 10 gems that I don't already own and can still be purchased today.

Thanks for all your help...... Trevor

Ok, I'll make some suggestions, keep in mind that they are my taste so maybe better presliten... ;)

 

If you like Green House Effect - Global Warming and if you are into very melodic psy then try this album:

 

Yahel - Waves Of Sound

 

If you like Misted Muppets, even when this style is crazier (and better imho) then try:

 

Nystagmus - Immaculate Perception

 

and less crazy

 

Talpa - Art Of Being None

 

then some old-school that should still be available:

 

Doof - Let's Turn On

 

If you are into housy progressive then I can recommend

 

Flowjob - Support Normality

 

and a bit less soft but still progressive

 

v/A - Street Art

 

Another progressive album (not housy but very melodic) I really love, and I'm not that much into progressive, is

 

Reefer Decree - Point Of You

 

Since you allready have the second Synsun album I can recommend the first one. I like it better than the second.

 

Synsun - Symphonic Adventures

 

IF you like full-on then I just have to tell you about my favourite full-on album ever:

 

Space Cat - Mechanical Dream

 

and since we are at it check also the first two Space Cat albums out

 

Space Cat - Beam Me Up

 

is more old-schoolisch and not full-on.

 

Hope you will like some of my recommendations! :)

 

Edit: Reefer Decree's album name corrected, thanks NextWorld!!

Nystagmus - Immaculate Perception

 

 

Great Story Album that is! Highly recommended!

 

Reefer Decree - Point Of View

 

 

Actually it´s Point of you ;)

 

But i agree, a really nice Progressive Album with it´s completly own Style.

 

 

Let me Add:

 

Ocelot - Dream Selector - Completly different Sound from the USA.

 

Antix - Lull - This Album changed my taste to the whole Psy/Progressive thing

 

Protoculture - Refractions - As your collections seems to be missing some more happy stuff, i recommend this one, Perfect Morgning music with great emotions. Some People may call it cheesy, i call it genious :)

 

Atmos - Headcleaner - This Album defined a whole new genre of Sound back then, absolute classic.

 

 

Thats it for now, maybe more later :)

IMO, only need 5 more to complete your wish.... You allready have a great collection.

A special mention for "V/A PSYCHEDELICLY YOURS 2" from Parvati Recs (This one I really never got bored of...)

 

Understand that my choice goes with my taste to night music, cannot really help on morning/ambient... Looking at your list, I guess you more night too ;)

Man you have pretty much everything you need with the fucking awesome hallucinogen albums, but try to get Astral Projection - Trust in Trance 2, it is older than your Trust in Trance which is release as a compilation in Israel named Trust in Trance 3, the trust in Trance 2 is even better because it has astral projections best racks, Butterfly Trip, Mahadeva, Celestial Groove, Powergen, very psychedelic, get it! Another ultimate album is the infinity project - Feeling Weird, it is one of the deepest psychedelic trance albums ever release IMO, very melodic psychedelic trance which will for sure kick your ass, tr to get Indoor - Progressive Trance which is aktaully uniquie psychedelic goa trance a bit too uplifting maybe but you won´t hate it. Try also to get Green nuns of the Revolution - Rock Bitch mafia, a very trippy acid psychedelic cd with spaced out TB303 riffs and also psychedelic, i don´t know wheather you can get these releases on saikosounds but if not lok at discogs.com or even easier, download them because buying over discogs from other people is useless throwing away the money, if the release aren´t aviable anymore download them. Try to get all old Twisted releases til 1998 and all dragonfly releases which have something to do with hallucinogen or simon posford, you will be very pleased., get also playadians - I.F.O., a very good goa trance album but a bit too cheesy compared to the posford stuff you have, get also etnica - The Juggeling Alchemists Under The Black Light which is their best album and not alien Protein because it is too cheesy. I think that´s quite a lot of stuff i recommended you, you will be pleased.

Wow, thanks for all the suggestions so far. It looks like I'm going to have a lot of work on my hands to narrow all these down to 10 picks. I'm going to get started right away.

 

To all who asked: Yes, I do enjoy "intelligent" Dark Psy but that's not the only suggestions I'm looking for here. I'm hopeing to find the very best Albums in all genres of Psy. *Remember, only the best of the best.* To make this easier please only suggest your absolute *GEMS*

 

Now it's off to trying to come up with the 10 CD's for my order.

Man.... this might take awhile :rolleyes:

 

Thanks again everyone.

many ppl have already mentioned it, but this is the only trance album i consider essential:

antix - lull [iboga]

 

chill however, i would have to say:

ishq - orchid

elemental journey - absolute ambient vol. 2

omnimotion - omnimotion

 

essential for me means that every music lover should own these, not only ppl into a particular style of music

Well, for me that would be:

 

Khetzal - Corolle (voted to the best album on this site last year) if you like melodic goa trance of the new millenium

Schizm if you like twisted music

Salakavala new album if you like suomi style, very groovy and psychedelic

best progressive must still be S-Range-2001 or Matenda-Energy Loader

Full On's best album for me is still Tikal's first

Ambient: absolute ambient is a marvellous release from the guy from the green nuns... :

You are funny! I think no group was more hailed then Dimension 5, first you say you listen to the best because everyone sais so... And the group that gets thé most positive reviews, is not the best or what? contradiction...

639508[/snapback]

I know that Dimension 5 is very popular, too, i just can´t get into it. No but Tatsu asked me why i try to force others to my taste and that´s just not true, look, i recommended him the albums which i like most and which are considered the best goa albums by many other goa lovers, too so i think i did a quite neutral thing.

imo you should also get the other albums by Eat Static :) at least, try to get your hands on their debut, "Abduction", fucking brilliant.

 

another good advice would be to not listen to recommendations from forum users in general ;)
