AIMP is quite good: https://www.aimp.ru/

The truth is: I am so freakin' boring these days. Great tracks here, but... ... but I have no other ideas for good 'straight' trance music these days. Suggestions welcome!

Oh yes, I do like Lethal Weapon 3. I'm not saying it's a good movie cinematically, it's rather trash obviously. I still like it for 90's nostagia. As for the other comments, I'm afraid it's the truth.

The film industry lost its innocence completely by now. Look in the eyes of those famous zombies at the Oscars, it's disgusting. Western civilzation is committing suicide and Hollywood is fully on board. So, i saw Lethal Weapon 3 the other day. Nice easy movie, no 'woke' bullshit and the black guy is just a guy, not a victim

Did we do this kind of topic already? Anyhorse, in my honest opinion this popular song is sounding pretty goa-ish Doesn't it? What else do you have?

You didn't. Anyway it's still quite enjoyable: https://youtube.com/watch?v=iZEH8xeGtBY Have fun fellaz

Thanks for mentioning Ovnimoon, I only know it from the Young Man on Acid compilation. Yeah sure the hippie tag is kind of a subjective thing. I like the tribal element of the album, it's a nice surprise in a way.

It's my 1st review here, sorry for the failure to do a proper review. Anyway I'm curious what you guys, especially genre fetishists are having to comment on this. To give you an idea about my motivation to post this review: I was really into what people call 'zenonesque', between 2004 and 2015 this was in my opinion a truly creative and unique genre, it was the true hippie stuff in my opinion. For some reason I feel like there was a cut of some sort, I don't see the true hippie stuff within this subgenre anymore. Youtube recommended this album for some reason, I listened to it and thought it's a very pleasant journey. I wouldn't say this is the one and only true hippie stuff, but it's hippie stuff. It's less dark and maybe a little less psychedelic than typical zenonesque but certainly more creative than usual European progressive. Generally feel free to let us know: Where is, in your opinion, the true hippie stuff within new psychedelic trance music?

Enjoy!

Old is gold, that's also true for Zenon Records. In my opinion this is probably the most underrated album in psytrance history. It certainly is very jazzy/funky. I love it!

I loved GTA Vice City as I loved GTA III, San Andreas and the 'stories' add ons, played them all very much. Of course GTA IV and V are better games technically but there is less fun in them in my opinion. It's all so serious and in GTA V you even had to torture a guy for the story to move on. WTF?! Also what I really miss is WWII shooters with some atmosphere like Medal Of Honor Allied Assault. Yes, Call Of Duty (WWII parts) were entertaining as well but MOHAA had such a great movie feeling with all these 'behind enemy lines' missions plus the excellent score. Epic stuff indeed.

This is very good goa trance and regarding the era it's 'newschool'. It's dirty, i mean really dirty. It's funky as hell and it's willful in a positive way. Producers should be inspired by this track.

I didn't say that Zenon Records is dead, I said that 'zenonesque' seems quite dead to me. I could be wrong about that and I could be just too lazy to dig deeper. Anyway, looks like this topic becomes a promotion for Zenon Records. It's ok though since I was asking for opinions. The difference is just that around the year 2010 it was quite a rare style while today there are many labels releasing that style. Still interesting labels for my taste are http://arkhivemusic.com and https://universaltriberecords.bandcamp.com and WOW: Just found an interesting website about this: https://psygressivearea.com <3

I remember the year 2010. Merkaba released an album and so did Tetrameth and Minimal Criminal. All of them were and still are excellent albums. Seriously, how great was that particular style people started calling 'zenonesque' at some point. Between 2006 and 2014 there was a really creative output within this style of psytrance. The music was dark without being negative and/or aggressive and it was very creative, funky and yes: Psychedelic. Today 'zenonesque' seems quite dead, right? Ok, Zenon Records is still around but they changed their direction to a more technoish style. Cosmic Conspiracy Records didn't realease anything in a long time and even the latest Merkaba album and new tracks from other talented artists don't really do the trick anymore. Technically perfect music but with a lack of heart and true inspiration in my opinion. ^ great piece of music from 2006 ^ So, what style of today's psytrance offers a ~135-ish~ BPM plus creative ideas and a positive and progressive sound design? Any suggestions? Comments?
