Juno Reactor - Komit Easily among the best JR tracks

I built a PC for a friend as it was cheaper that way so this was a thanks for that. 08 re-release of the 97 awesomeness. It's a bit shame though it doesn't have the WaxTrax records High Energy Protons (Orion Mix), but since it wasn't in the original blue room release I'm not surprised.

Ree. K - Apollo Can't get enough

Ree. K - Apollo Fucking wow, 4:33 yet so epic and powerful.

Ree. K - Kage That melody, wow..

Slug - Slugfest

Very interesting, this is like the missing link between goa-trance and full-on to be honest. It clearly borrows elements from both, but leans towards goa-trance. A stellar album and in my opinion there could have been a lot of potential in this particular style, but as Cocco said, his later inputs ended up being cookie-cutter full-on, shame.

lol! We need more psy-humour a'la psyreviews.net

Various Artists - Nitz-ho-goa SITA RECORDS 2009 1. Räma - Illumination 8:59 2. Boneva - Andromeda (Agneton's Red Sunset Rmx) 7:18 3. Astreveta - Harvesting Fireflies 8:11 4. Agneton - The Hardest Dream Experience (Feat. Goalien) 6:49 5. Goalien - The Solar System 10:06 6. Persistent Aura - Machine Elve 8:34 7. Räma - Clockwork Knight 8. Persistent Aura - House Of Sun 7:23 9. Räma - Little Indian Girl 7:21 Nitz-ho-goa is a crossover between goa-trance and nitzhonot, all the layers and complexity of goa-trance with the melodies from nitzhonot, but the difference is that 90% the cheese from the nitzo side of things has been cut-off. The melodies are as in your face as they are in nitzhonot, but they aren't something you would grind your teeth at. Räma - Illumination We start of with a spacey mysterious mood with an echoing sample, not long and you get your fair share of psychedelic sounds and the nitzo-influenced kick filling up that space, a standard beginning, but what's different is that the nitzo influenced melodies finally get introduced for the first time on this compilation. These melodies are true to to the last bone Indian influenced melodies, and they aren't cheesy in the least bit. Räma is basically Amithaba Buddha + Nitzohonot + more concentration to eastern instruments, and that combination is perfect. This track is fun, interesting and uplifting and has it's share of the amount of layers goa-trance has. Beginning of something new and exciting. Boneva - Andromeda (Agneton's Red Sunset Rmx) Our first track which sounds more familiar, something we've heard before on Agneton's debut. It's hard to know who did and what, but to me it seems like Agneton is just pouring out layers as much as he can and doing it with care. In the same spirit as in Eyes Wide Open on V/A - Alternative Colours. That make the texture's so full and crisp along with the rolling nitzo-oriented bassline. And the crazy melody segments at 3:55, oh my god, the same sound I've heard only a few times before, metallic really crisp and clear sound, and the 6:05 climax which is fucking fantastic. A nice collaboration by these two artists. Astreveta - Harvesting Fireflies At first I didn't find Harvesting Fireflies very good, up until now the tracks had been fast and pumping. Harvesting Fireflies slows things down and goes to the hypnotic road instead. This is great for what it is, it is not as much for the dancefloor as previous tracks, it's more mysterious and deep; especially at the end as the layers have grown and melody is at it. A different kind of a track that gives some welcomed variation to the tempo of this compilation, but not my favourite. Agneton - The Hardest Dream Experience (Feat. Goalien) Agneton and Goalien could be said to be the new fathers of Nitzohonot(Or Nitzogoa in this case) and having them two make a collaboration is extremely promising in itself and you think they could not disappoint, and they don't. From the extremely crazy starting melody to the echoing spacey ending it's a highly layered, crazy melodic and interesting trip in the same sense as Agneton - Eyes Wide Open and Filteria - Wormhole. Just like in Wormhole, how layered it is, it's a bit disappointing to see a track length of 6:50, but that 6:50 is fantastic. Goalien - The Solar System Now onto Goaliens solo input. Naming the track as grand as The Solar System and delivers on that. Fat, deep and rolling nitzo-ish bassline kicks in, spacey layers and melodies ensue. You get what you'd expect, some really groovy and evolving big nitzo melodies while the hard kick keeps the pace up even at the slowest parts and by saying slowest, I really don't mean slow, this is Big, blazing fast and hitting nitzogoa. A 10-minute journey through The Solar System for sure. Great stuff! Persistent Aura - Machine Elve Starts off with, ah I don't want to say it, but cheesy style, something you'd hear in an uplifting compilation ala Betachronic (Not saying that's bad, but it is a turn-off to many), but hold on as this track shows that it's not cheese, that it's a great addition to the nitzogoa style. 2:15 starts of the same melody than before but on a more pitched level 3:05 evolves the melody, more layers and 4:05 makes the melody sound completely different as it introduces a flutey sound; very eastern, playful and addicting and this is where it starts to grind into your head and you start to appreciate it while it flows through you. Very, very nice, unique and risk taking piece from Persistent Aura. Surprise of the album I'd say. Räma - Clockwork Knight Ahh we're back in India again. Again the new style of Räma shows such brilliance. Pumping non-cheesy nitzhogoa with heavy Indian influences, playful melodies and layers. It's so brilliantly fun, psychedelic and fast throughout. 4:09 that instrument he uses to create a simple but brilliant melody and the other melody that comes on top of it at 4:23 is just fantastic work. 4:40 evolves it and the track slowly lowers the tempo from 5:52 to the end, a different take that I haven't head in a while. The melodies in this track are just crazy fun and smile-inducing. We need more of this kind of stuff. Persistent Aura - House Of Sun Again as one might say, a little bit of cheese included, but it does not hurt! This is what Nitzogoa is about, combining goa-trance and nitzo, you can't leave everything out always. There's not much to say, it's a really good fast track, rolling laser kick bassline ala nitzo and big eastern melodies. Awesome on the dancefloor I'd imagine. Räma - Little Indian Girl We finally get into to the track that I love the most. Little Indian Girl starts with magical sounds, 30 seconds in and we get our first melody and it's bliss, pure bliss. If you've never been to india, this is your ticket there. I haven't heard such influence ever before, it's like it was made there! At 3:19 the melody disappears and drumming sounds fill the room, 3:33 there's a girl laughing which leads to the beginning of the melody again, this time it's a little different though as we get a new layer on top of it indicating there's something good coming, 4:18 chills things down to pick it up again at 4:33 and the monstrously fantastic melody ensues. I haven't gotten this many chills down my spine in a good while. It's so pure, it's so clear, it's so uplifting, influenced and not cheesy. Makes me want to go crazy and just dance like ever before. The bassline is more goaish and the whole speed of things is a lot chiller in here than in previous tracks and not as much in your face. Brilliant track and a fitting ending for this compilation and with that I must say I'm anxious to see what more can Filipe do with this new and amazing project of his. In conclusion, get this compilation if you're a fan of nitzhonot or goa-trance, or just simply awesome melodies. It's a gem and, hopefully, marks the beginning of something new. A hallmark in my opinion. Fantastic compilation for a fantastic year. Fantastic.

This review is best read with the "blue darkness" forum skin option.

Pandorum is like Dead Space + Event Horizon. Very un-original but the sci-fi lover in me still wants to see it. Apart from that, I'm extremely anxious to see Avatar, I have soft spot for CGI + Sci-fi and this movie delivers both at a huge scale. Oh haha, while i was watching the Imaginarium trailer, this was on the side hahahahha

Thanks!

Such atmosphere.. one of those rare moments where you actually get to travel for real. Magnificent.

Good stuff man That one track before didn't exactly spark my interest but hearing these, so much potential for a full length album. I'm liking what I'm hearing

Hallucinogen 3 would be pretty fly thouu

Filteria - Earthrise

With a retro style and pleiadian flavour http://gasolin3.deviantart.com/art/D5-139305797

Tamlin - Spectrogram http://www.psynews.org/forums/index.php?/topic/52450-tamlin-spectrogram/ Fragletrollet - Playground of spirit http://www.psynews.org/forums/index.php?/topic/56930-fragletrollet-playground-of-spirit-shaman-film-records-media/ Both of them are overlooked gems of their respective years imo

This decades 1997 is 2009, confirmed. Awesome news! By the way please could you reply to my private messages? I've been dying to know who's track is it..

http://www.arabesquedistribution.com//index.php?option=com_artistavenue&task=singleCd&id=2093&Itemid=99999999 Woot! E-mantra is able to sound like crop circles at times so I'm really excited for this, that and Suntrip can't disappoint. I wonder when it's gonna be out thou.

Hadn't heard half of those goa samples and they're awesome..

The last 2 tracks are really, really good. The rest? Some of it is good, some of it is just ok, but the last 2 tracks are where it's at. They actually sound like goatrance with a hint of full-on, not the other way around. A rare sight.

This is brilliant. 2009's Tamlin imo, overlooked and insanely good. This album is like a perfect mix of Ka-sol, Ubar Tmar and Tamlin. Highly psychedelic, colourful like a rainbow, very moody and extremely interesting. Even the bassline manages to catch my attention! I actually wait for what happens next in it, unlike other albums the bassline stays the same or has little to no change, but Fragletrollet plays around with it like a maniac. Great stuff. Great review pietones by the way.

It is insanely easy, actually.

Want so bad but no money for anything right now.
