Loved this work!
Tho' many ppl despise the over-use of melodies,,[and admitting that I've a sweet tooth for melodies ] ,,I think Artha has done a great job and kept his style intact thru'out the album. It's not some stomping Goa music, but definitely something different and pleasant to the mind with good-morning Goa vibes added to Psy-trance.
There's a laid-back, chill mood to the album and the structuring of the tracks is quite optimum, tho' some myt not agree with me here.
While I prefer to listen to such albums in one go, a few tracks stand out anyway,,favs being:
1. Controlled
2. Mystic Change
3. Transfusion
4. Bali
I recommend this album to all the Goa/psy-trance listeners who've somehow got bored of the contemporary new-skool/full-on/fluffy/regular repetitive music popping out these days. Artha's music, as mentioned earlier, cud be compared with Hallucinogen's,,but in a very generic way. It's got a new feel to it, and will surely inspire a nice trip if one knows how to tune-in.
Conclusion: 3.5/5
