Not bad, not bad at all. I liked it but it felt unfinished. You have good ideas and the basics, like effects, are there but there's room for improvement. I can clearly see what you are going for thou. That's the most technical I can say since I'm not a producer but keep at it.

Amazing release. As T2MU said it is indeed more psytrancy, but bear in mind this is a 1997 release, so expect tons of creativity. The groove and rhythm, in a more of a hypnotic sense, and layering are impeccable. There are tracks that focus on these aspects completely such as Rooster, Caracol and Funkadelic, but there are others that also focus on a dense atmosphere. I think the biggest track from there is Nazca Spider. The atmosphere is oozing with dark tribal atmosphere and segments of drama. The production on this album feels genuinely unique and one of the first of its kind with reminding this is from 1997 - I know it has gotten inspirations from other sources but the sound remains completely unique. Lots of electronic beeping, higher pitched acid, organic tribal sounds, groovy rhythmic basslines. This is a fantastic album from the 90's, but, due the things listed, I feel like a little unappreciated. It is not melody heavy like most, but what it lacks in melody it gives in all else. Just listen to Rooster - the ever-growing groove is frighteningly good. The way it builds and progresses up to the final climax is amazing, and trust me, that climax will destroy the dancefloor. The rooster sounds should be cheesy but aren't because of the way they are incorporated into the groove. I'm listening to the remastered version and it sounds absolutely superb, and it comes with an additional track so don't hesitate to get it. The original has a nicer back cover, including the mayan calendar and space background - whlist the new version just has the calendar in a smaller form and the tracklist - but who cares when everything else is better. This is one of the rare times I really can say I rather have the new version over the old one. Thanks to Avatar for that. p.s. I'm moving the 2005 remaster thread in general psytrance. If someone bothers they can write a full review in 2005 section about the remastered version. The first thread wasn't a review thread at all.

You have this problem generally as well? I thought I was alone..

2010's "Movements". Period. This release is absolutely incredible. Every track is pure quality. I very much agree with T2MU's words here and Cocco's ratings are spot-on. I must mention Halley Road completely awe-struck me. Vintage space ambient. Just breathtaking.

I was gonna hold till 3 new releases but since I wanted a shirt I pre-ordered it anyway with one.

I wish more would include a shirt. That would be so nice.

Ultimae can do no wrong..

I remember hearing they spend tons of money on the shpongle live shows and they do actually need the money to keep making them. I agree the mask is overpriced since it's so small but it's cool nonetheless.

Expensive new clothes and now I'm broke

http://www.discogs.com/Ree-K-Yammataikoku/release/201544 I want it so bad! Amazing music.

190bpm rofl!

Ahh I'm just kidding. Without dem belgians the goatrance movement would be miniscule.

^ You made me do it! Damn it! I ordered these from the twisted shop. I actually feel like the shpongle single is one the best things they ever did with that project.

Yes, in the trailer.

LFO - Freak for good measure. A damn fine IDM track! Looks interesting.

We are riding the same boat it seems. Death to belgians! Welcome!

Great thread! I was thinking of making myself this but I guess I forgot. Definitely would bee cool if the first post would be updated with what people post, I could occasionally help too since I can edit posts. What do you think deepcode? uvAntam.com aka ubar tmar has loads available for download at

What is his artist name?

Oh, I'm checking out Liquid Flows soundcloud and Purple Morning is really great! Astral Projection type melodies! United Universe too! Really different from the debut album to be honest. Presence was ok but didn't stand out at all because of the repetitious sound. Not enough happened through the tracks but these are saved by the super melodies.

Antares - Exodus Suntrip Records 2011 1. The Exodus 9:19 2. Mysticism 7:59 3. Aurum Solis 10:41 4. The 4th Dimension 8:39 5. Dreaming Universe 9:14 6. Mount Meru 10:39 7. Astral Plane 9:30 8. Sun Sanctuary 8:36 Well first off I wasn't expecting much to be frank. The Antares track on V/A - Sundrops was something else, a really super track but a lot of things after that felt kind of typical, you know, blargh morning sunshine goa. So album was kind of announced and samples listened, didn't seem that special, still. Then came the time when I got it and listened to it. Sunshine! I'll just start by saying the artwork on this album is just super, the cover is disappointing but everything inside, spines, back, just amazing! On a whole other level, really appropriate for this album too with the organic patterns. Check out the backcover for instance. Suntrip always makes shelves with CD collections look damn good and colourful and no exceptions here! Now on to the music, I expressed this in the Erta Alé review, that the goa in this scene is, mostly, just fluff and sunshine and that is exactly what this album is. This not yet taking much from the album for me, personally, but the limit may come across in the near-future. The rough needs to start filling the fluff! There is one track that sounds more like Daimon, the darker antares project, which is the 3rd one, Aurumn Solis, and then there's the 4th one, The 4th Dimension, too which is kind of half Daimon. Both of them have the nicest growling acid deep drilling throughout and they feel much less floating albeit they still float, but that's about it for the "darkness". This album is absolutely great at what it wants and tries to be, though. That fluff floating sunshine goa. It is very driving often and the sounds are near-perfect. The production on this album absolutely outstanding. Floating goa has never sounded this precise, so to say. All the organic elements, really diluted basslines, meaning the force has been toned quite a bit for that ethereal atmosphere and driving, really wet floating acid that is everywhere and bright sunshiiiiine melodies. Especially outside in the sun many of the tracks are oh so near-perfection with their atmosphere and driving tempo. Exodus, Mysticism and Mount Meru are pure bliss at that. The others are good, really solid thought-out journeys, as well. The only bad track here is Dreaming Universe. It is well made production-wise, but damn is it stoic and boring. It has good elements but it's just too much fluffy fluffness whilst nothing happens. I listen to it for a minute and that's enough to bore me to tears. Then the weird track is Astral Plane where the melody seems far more trancy than goay but surprisingly it came off well, really a special track because of the emotion the trancy melody evokes. Actually I would have wanted another track to experiment with it, this is why Aurora on Sundrops was great as well since the main climax melody seemed more trancy. All in all I actually wanted to be more critical with the fluff-factor but damn I can't, this super well produced no matter what. A really good album, perfect for the sunshine summer but not as great for more colder seasons. This album kind of feels like a sequel to VA - Sundrops with it's pure morning concept but it lacks variance obviously since Sundrops had multiple artist. Still, it is kind of a spiritual successor, I'd say. Go buy it now if you enjoy sunshiney goatrance! If you don't, well, I'd preview first to see if it's worth it. It might be a bit much of that floating sound for some but not enough for me yet. Or maybe I'm just a sucker for anything that is Goa.. nah, I don't like Ajna. Sorry, but that's where the fluff kills me. Just a random note. To leave this mini-review on a more brighter one... "I'm walking on sunshine, oh oh! And don't it feel good!" Where to get it and samples? http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/sut/sut1cd021.html http://www.beatspace.com/dettagli/dettaglio.aspx?id=6100 http://www.saikosounds.com/english/display_release.asp?id=8702 http://www.suntriprecords.com/shop/item/SUNCD21/ p.s. Ka-sol was a brilliant release.

Man I'd buy this remastered in a heartbeat. A damn fine new school comp! Love listening to it occasionally but it's a shame about the loudness war mastering.

Anoebis should put up scans at least on discogs

Got it. Finally my collection has something longer from Takeshi. Musical genius. That thing is has such an old school feeling in it. Debating whether to get it or not.

Sick atmosphere! The electric sweeping and void atmosphere is so immense. I feel like traveling through an electric blue mist in lightspeed. This is amazing.
