"You have no idea what I'm talking about I'm sure. Don't worry...you will...someday"

 

Ummmm...yeeeeaaaah. I don't want to know. I'm pretty sure the parents of the 5 Hooters waitresses you swallowed are looking for their daughters.

 

This is another early 2000's compilation that was beginning to show where the South African sound was heading. Notice I said beginning. Night time psytrance that wasn't darkpsy, with dark melodies. Hell it's full of future Timecode artists and managers so they might've said "F*ck this, we can do this for our own label!"

 

But like a baby that still sh*ts itself, you gotta crawl before you can walk. It's about finding your groove. And this one was still crawling. For example Xatrik's track Level 3 was a minimal, boring offering that needed a few more levels. The Clonex and Rinkadink remix were more of the same. I mean it's damn near false advertising...look at the cover. All those people gathered ready to dance and these artists are making f*cking lullabyes. Things get a little harder when the Timecode crew steps up, but it's far from their crowning achievement. You would think an almost 10 minute track from the Artifakt would be appealing, but I assure you it is not.

 

So if you're in the market for some minimal sounding rough drafts from artists that would get exponentially better I'm afraid it's not available through the regular channels. I see at this time there are some kind fellows willing to take $70 of your money on Discogs. However I imagine it also comes with a hand painted picture of a middle finger with the caption "Dumbass."

 

So there's that. C'mon...unless somebody died or has a sex tape there is absolutely no reason to fork over that kind of cash.
