    Oforia

    I love Delirious and if the new album is "his old style but with modern production" then I will be very happy! About the other Oforia albums, well, I haven't liked any of them.
  3. Full-On: Misted Muppets - From The Legend Goa-Trance: Filteria - Sky Input Progressive: Son Kite - Colours Downtempo: Bluetech - Elementary Particles Other: Haltya - Electric Help Elves
  4. James Monroe has an upcoming album on Candyflip Records: http://www.candyflip-records.com/
  5. Yes, there's a tune called that on the FREq album, but there's also a group called Carbon Based Lifeforms, and that's what we're talking about here.
  6. Umm, we've been discussing Darshan's both albums in this thread and Phased Transition is on the Spectra album so...
  7. Psy-trance is dead in the regard that ground breaking releases are very rare. Measured in absolute numbers and combining all subgenres of psy-trance we do get good (non-ground breaking) releases, but combining the total number of releases in a year we do get relative few good releases. At the moment most of the sub-genres are just refining their formula, some even to death (neo-full on). The number of labels and artists is too big, and that's probably why we get a lot of safe releases (read the same shit over again). The scene is not big enough to support all these labels and artists. Therefor bankrupts might not be bad. The artists also have a responsibility, they can't release the same tune over and over again. Then again, if you're a die hard psy-trancer and you're not happy with the current situation of the scene, then do something about it.
  8. I've been looking for this remix ever since I heard of it, but I still haven't found it. Is it exclusive for their live sets or has it found its way to the net/Soulseek yet?
  9. Well, it doesn't really matter what artist is being remixed as long as the end result has something to add or offer. Rude Ass Tinker has remixed Aimee Mann's "One" and Mc Hammer's "Can't touch this" and the end product is really good. What makes his remixes special is that they are so fundamentaly different from the original and you only recognize small parts. Remixes done by the isra-clones will be crap 99% of the time but that should come as no surprise as their standard output is 99% carp. A Britney Spears remix could be very cool if someone with talent and a twisted brain (read Texas Faggott) remixed it. Psy-trance has always been inspired by pop culture, just look at all the samples, especially the multitude of obvious Matrix samples. The trick is to put these samples in a new context and the same applies to the remixes. I'm still waiting for a psychedelic Ghostbusters theme song remix.
  10. That's a good example of a great remix.
  11. You can't review an album based on three minute samples! Send us a link to the tree minute samples instead.
  12. Yes, but it probably means a lot of the tunes from the demo have already been released on compilations or on their album.
  13. I viewed some of your recent photos and they are indeed great!! Keep up the good work! Take care
  14. Goa trance was the sound inspired by the parties in Goa; eastern spiritualism fused with western post-materialism and electronics. The music was very melodic, full of filter sweeps from analog synths and lots of sci-fi samples were used. Psy-trance came into existence when goa trance spread over the world and (the) Goa (experience) seased to be the main source of inspiration. Psy-trance became the umbrella under which all styles of psychedelic electronic headfuck trance music was found, be it goa trance or aussie madness. Some claim that psy-trance has been used paralell with goa trance since the beginning but the term became widely used when TIP released their groundbreaking "Phosphorescent" compilation. That compilation introduced a much darker sound and more weird noises; a clear departure from the goa trance sound. Goa trance is a sub genre of psychedelic trance, in that regard there is no difference between the two, it's all psychedelic trance, but goa trance is also a distinctive sound, and in that regard there is a difference. That's my short explanation of goa trance and psy-trance.
  15. I know what you mean and that's how I listen to psy-trance. Problem is that the emotional range of psy-trance is limited, psychedelic music tends to be quite introverted and demand a lot of attention and psy-trance lacks the important groove. So variation really is the key for me.
  16. Hey, you used to be on the 604 list a few years back, right? I think I gave you some feedback on your photos or something like that... Take care!
  17. Hi there and welcome! Here's a thread about where the boards members are from: http://www.psynews.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=22130 Take care!

    Menog - Emotions !

    Hey, the above isn't a review, it's just the release information: http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/spl/spl1cd002.html
  19. Variation is the key! I've been enjoying psy-trance since 1996 and by now a lot of it tends to sound the same, and besides there's really no reason to limit yourself to just one style of music when there's tons of excellent music out there!
  20. The man certainly has the right attitude towards music, but unfortunately the music he produces these days does nothing for me.
  21. 1996: alien abduction, anal probe, weird music in the background, the rest is history.
  22. It's a masterpiece! Lot's of variation among the tracks and great flow in general. One of my favorite releases.
  23. This could turn out to be really interesting! Btw, does anyone know if we will get a new Doof album soon? I love "It's about time" and a new album would be great.
  24. Well, Trancelestial Psychobabas is one C. Andersson, and that tends to be the alias of one Kristian Thinning, aka Elysium, aka Elysium Project, aka your fellow board member E.P. Would that be correctly asumed E.P?
  25. Hi there Ensign, I recommend the following albums to you: The Misted Muppets - From the Legend Prometheus - Robot-O-Chan (Prometheus is one half of Younger Brother) Phutureprimitive - Subconcious (Shpongle style) Bluetech - Elementary Particles These are all relative new releases so there shouldn't be any problem finding them. Hope you like them, take care.
