Trance2MoveU Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Man, for me this has been an excellent year for psytrance. So much to listen to, I'm afraid I won't get to it all. I will put down my top 10 because there is absolutely no way I can choose only 5. I just can't do it. Sue me. Top 10, kinda: :posford: 1. Hiyarant- Collision (Have you heard this? You had me with the Emily Rose sample! Absolutely brilliant!) 1a. Mindsphere- Inner Cyclone 2. Concept- Paranormal (Another head kicking ride!) 2a. Sun Control Species- Scienza Nuova 3. Shift- Alternator (The South-African Godfather of Psy! He's still got it!) 3a. V/A- Twist Dreams 4. Freaked Frequency (To say I was pleasantly surprised by this is a HUGE understatement!) 5. V/A- Future Cuts (Pure S/A madness!) 6. Arkanoydz- Type One 7. Braincell- Transformation of Reality 7a. V/A- Samurai 8. EsP- Sensory Overload 8a. V/A- Kaleidoscopic Visions 9. Mr. Peculiar- Infinite Evolution 9a. Xatrik- Inside Information 10. The Atari.s- Space Invaded 10a. V/A- Cold Conclusion: Tales of the Frozen Delerium Honorable Mentions: :posford: Dimension5- Transdimensional (I can't really count this as it wasn't made in 2007) Transwave- Backfire (same reason) Trold- Time of Illusion (very nice surprise) V/A- Darklines V/A- Deep Into The Nexus V/A- Fractal Energy (Get rid of that horrible 2nd track and you've almost got a perfect album!) V/A- Hardfloor V/A- League of Shadows V/A- Psionic Substance Ambient/Downtempo: :clapping: 1. Cosmik Chill Orange 2. Asura- Life2 Yeah, umm...that's all I got. But damn they're good ones!

Trance2MoveU Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I made that list and saw that it had a South African bias, but for me that is where the best trance is from.

Mdk Funny way you count to 5 Even to ten.. 1,1a,2,2a,3,3a... glad i didn't play hide and seek with you when i was a kid Anyways, don't you think the concept album is a little to... What can i call it... It sounds the same all the way through the album.. It's really cool and all, but is it good enough for being in top 5?? Not imo. The only stand out tracks is imo Lost sattelite and Sharp Phase. Anyways, when is the Final top 5 being announced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
