maudio Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 PLANUM - "Spying Imagination" Release Date: June, 2007 Artist: Planum Title: Spying Imagination Publisher: SunDance Records Format: CD only Duration: 10 tracks Cat No: SUNDCD032 File Under: Melodic Psychedelic Trance TRACKLISTING 1. Dancing Orchestra 2. Skittering 3. Main Stage 4. Living On My Own feat Freddie Mercury 5. Hot Places 6. Musical Fluctuation 7. No Drugs No War Only Sex & Music 8. Revived 9. Old School vs Hi Tech 10. Marionettes feat Zbigniew Preisner SunDance Records is proud to present the much anticipated 2nd album of Russian Maestro Planum titled “Spying Imagination”. With his legendary underground status firmly in place after the first album, Planum pushes his sound to a new level of vibe & production. Planum’s new sound has super clean & crisp production, and magical intros that set a most unique vibe at parties. Enormously powerful rolling, yet playful basslines with smooth emotive pitch changes are accompanied by outrageously huge synth lines & melodies & intelligent percussion. Unique build ups & percussive fills give an almost live drumming feel to his tracks and unpredictable direction changes ensure a totally psychedelic experience. Planum explores new directions from his 1st album with some tracks having more a tech feel to them, whilst others are like a complete orchestral experience. This is fairy tale journey trance supported by the tightest Russian production & melodies from beyond. Check out “Spying Imagination” now.

longloststar Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I'll do a quick one. Planum continues in the same vein as the first album; excellent production and very big and annoying melodic synth lines. At all times, you can count the layers of any given song on four fingers: kick, bass, perc and one humongous synth. The melodies are consistently beautiful; however, while a painting might be worth looking at, we don't want to be smacked over our heads with it; and, while a man might be handsome, surely we wouldn't want to be raped by him. Furthermore, the last song features poorly recorded piano lines and there is also a remake (i suppose) of "Living on my own" with Freddy singing, which surely will put off many, although I found that particular song quite strong. For melody junkies and no one else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
