Trip To Goa (downtempo)


Paul Eye

Recommended Posts

So, a few weeks ago I played this. Call it a warmup set for Ott if you will. Anyway, some surprises along the way (for myself too) and this was actually recorded at the event (as opposed to "in my home studio" which is the case for all my other sets). I'll maybe have some pics/videos up a bit later on, maybe.

Tracklist:
山本千夏 - Early Bird
E-Mantra - Between Two Worlds: The Boatman
Derango - An Invisible Tale
2Minds - Eclipse
Phillax - Melting Frog
Ailo - Chronos
Dub Trees - Magnetica (The Love That Moves The Sun And Stars Mix)
Floating Planet - Rainforest
Globular - Up The Xylem Elevator (Radioactive Sandwich's Wild West Remix)
Easily Embarrassed - Little Match Sister
Banco de Gaia - Acquiescence
Juno Reactor - Navras (MIDIval PunditZ Remix)
Cybernetika - Prismatic Reflection
Infected Mushroom - Stretched
Eat Static - Epoch Calypso
Genetic - Test One
Eat Static feat. Elaine Frost - Where Ghosts Lay...

Yeah well Prismatic Reflection was kind of an obvious choice because I had planned to end the set with just a slight bang (Navras + Where Ghosts Lay) but as I needed to extend it on the fly I decided to continue with a bang (and of course play an 11 minute track to give me some room to breathe and think of my next move) and then play a couple of tracks I just know to work well.

And yes, toothbrush people were there. One of the girls who started the whole thing is actually Finnish (I didn't know that until she told me) and she was at the party too :)

I love this mix.

 

It offends me when I turn on the radio and hear crap, and knowing that beautiful sounds like these are out there.

 

Brilliant job, Paul Eye.

I doubt anyone's forcing you to listen to the radio? I haven't had one in, hmm, over 20 years :)

Morning traffic reports. I need to catch those.

Even with all the nice tracks, my fav remains the chinese(japanese?) one :D

Japanese. Although the language she sings is complete nonsense, something invented by Yoko Kanno (the composer) or Gabriela Robin (who wrote the lyrics and whose identity was a bit of a mystery for a long time until Kanno revealed it to be a pseudonym of hers). She's done this before :)

 

Was it actually in the woods?

Umm, no. Not this time of the year.

Hmm. Probably not really anywhere anymore. The CD seems to be out of print, but there seems to be a few copies for sale at mostly ridiculous prices over at Discogs. For the track only, maybe Amazon.jp or something?

Thanks Paul, the name of the album is what I needed ;) I'll hunt it down :P the re-issue is available at 3 :D so I might take that.

Btw, is it a soundtrack to some movie or something.? How did you bump into it.?

Soundtrack to the anime series Earth Girl Arjuna from 2001 (still one of my favourites). I used to be quite an anime geek but it has receded in the past 5-6 years or so. I still try to find at least one good series to watch per year but it seems more and more like a challenge.

I have no idea about the anime. But I heard a lot about Naruto :D and one more series where a dude (cop?) will be having a piece of paper and if he writes a name on it, that person would end up dead. :o

Please, no :lol:

I think you mean Death Note, which actually is ridiculously awesome for the most part. But this is getting way off topic now. Maybe we should focus on the music instead :)
