What are you doing to those poor, little, innocent stickers!!!
-
Add E-Mantra to the list.

Some of my impressions after listening the first 6 tracks. E-Mantra - Arcana manages to create awesome extremely spacey soundscapes, and landscapes, and has a ton of little details which make the experience that much more rich and golden, oh, I forgot to mention that the sounds used in this album are unique, some of which I think I have never heard before. It's amazing what kind of sounds E-Mantra has found and incorporated here. The main soundflows (as instead of main melodies, the general direction of sounds and themes) are extremely nice with those unique and beautiful spacey sounds. This is really a voyage to outer space, no doubt about it. You feel like you're flowing through vast, beautiful space. An album which is unlike anything released in a while that manages to create hope that there's still a possibility of getting back the old-school way of experimenting and creating amazing sonic journeys. I do have a complain though, E-mantra's style has a major weak spot and it's the repetition. It's that typical E-Mantra sound that I hear in every track here, I think it's the pace; the tempo and bassline stays the same. While it creates the workspace and ambiance needed for everything else, there is not enough variance, it's the same in every track. I wouldn't mind it as much if he had something to counter it with more often, I.E. more emphasis on the highs to distract, or just something to throw it off(See: Shamanistic Rituals 6:30->, War Of The Hierophants 4:05->). Very good way to show this problem off is just plainly skip the tracks in 1 minute spaces, it's almost frustrating. Now this complain might not be universal, as in a lot of people think the same, but to me it's pretty big and holds this releases quality some-what back, unfortunately. That being said, it's not a deal breaker, this album is an amazing piece in the new-school-era.. no, in the whole goa-trance-era. A Must have. My on-board audio made this album sound worse than it is. With the soundcard this recording is BIG.

Well played, good sir. Well played.

Was there any hope to begin with? It's been almost a decade after the death of goatrance and 6 years after it's supposed rebirth(Sky Input year to me) and where are we at? ~20 Goa-trance albums a year. That number is laughable..
-
Yes yes yes!

Very true. Amanians was a great example of darker goa but Mike A(subra, owner of cronomi) said they have stopped writing music. Another different style of goa is Artha, looking forward to that. I do wonder about this, I've listened to it a billion times. Really awesome music..
-
Maybe because so little of it is being released. Filteria - Daze Of Our Lives Afgin - Astral Experience Merr0w - Born Underwater E-Mantra - Arcana Radical Distortion - Psychedelic Dreams Blue Planet Corporation - A Blueprint For Survival Cosmosis - Retro Volume 1 & 2 California Sunshine - Dark Side Of The Brain V/A - Nitz-ho-goa V/A - Suncokreti V/A - The Sitting Goddes V/A - People Walk Funny V/A - Artificial Sun V/A - Pure Planet 3 V/A - Alternative Colours V/A - Ya Wichna V/A - Organic Vision V/A - Art From The Heart + a few I may have missed. That is not a whole lot of goa-trance for 1 year to be frank, not to mention this year has had the most goa-trance releases of the decade I believe(Not 100% sure, I haven't dont much counting).
-
I'm sorry but... what? California Sunshine - Oblivion Chi-Ad - Sight Of The Sages Virtuart & Chronomyst - Zanchin Ra - Gateway Eight Filteria - Back To Earth I don't see how you can't recall any of those tracks.. Radical Distortion have no clue about music? Uhh.. There's this thing called taste. I find RD's music fun trippy and danceable and that's what I expected. You want the old complexity, well Suntrip isn't exactly the man for the job, but what they do release(New school goa-trance), is quality. I really don't see an artist like MFG and Pleiadians coming to this scene in a long while, if ever. We're past that, unfortunately. You're expecting a rebirth of the old complex goa-trance..
-
Apparently these are indeed from back in the day. Anoebis's reply was this "They are ripped from a DAT from a French dj in 99" Man, that's just weird how something like this would go unnoticed..
-
Suntrip is like a drug to the melodic Goa trance lovers. They really brought the spirit back. I am too a fanboy, I was from the day I first heard Sky Input lol.

SUNCD17 E-mantra - Arcana
Penzoline replied to Penzoline's topic in Artist News and Labels announcements
Ordered 2 days ago and still no reply :/ I believe so, their other releases have DD options. I guess they just don't want it leaked that way to the net. And anoebis if you read this, please for the love of god, reply to my lost tracks thread.. -

Penzoline replied to Penzoline's topic in Artist News and Labels announcements
Couldn't help myself, I'm completely out of cash but I still ordered this one... damn Suntrip is getting in my head.. -
http://www.psynews.org/forums/index.php?/topic/56930-fragletrollet-playground-of-spirit-shaman-film-records-media/ ? Forest Spirit in particular. What an awesome album.

Awww I thought it was Artha because he has that same kind of deep sound in some of his tracks example eLeSDi 3:54 http://www.myspace.com/arthapolandpsychedelic

Penzoline replied to Sputum Rotgut's topic in General Psytrance
Pleiadians - Moon In Your Window Family of light is better than I thought -
I really doubt Khetzal or Yahel is behind this. Now I'm more leaning towards artha.. Time to PM Mike? I think so.
