    Both Union Jack and Art of Trance are projects by Simon Berry (label boss of Platipus Records). Art of Trance is his solo work. Union Jack is him and Claudio Giussani (and the new Union Jack album is not Union Jack. fuck that name-stealing rubbish). Claudio Giussani also writes music under the name Terra Ferma on Platipus Records. I highly recommend the first Terra Ferma album "Turtle Crossing" (although the second album is good too, just not the same). You should really check out more of the Platipus stuff. The first three Platipus comps (Volume 1, Volume 2, and Volume 3) are worthy of picking up if you like that sound. The comps have great tracks by POB, Virtualmismo, L.S.G., Clanger, and an artist I've recommended around here before, Quietman. Another project that you might want to check out is Satori (Sean "Process" Williams and Pete "Slide" Martin). You like Tristan and Tristan used to work with Process on some great tracks back in the mid 90s around the same time as Satori was releasing stuff. Satori released 8 tracks on various labels and all are worth grabbing http://www.discogs.com/artist/87962-Satori-3 However, their 12"s "Liquid Sky/Entroy" and "Event Horizon/Neureality" would probably please you the most. If any of that stuff pleases you, or displeases you, let me know and I can give more recommendations after filtering more of what you are looking for. Cheers!

    While it's not my favorite track by a long shot, I have to agree that Hallucinogen "LSD" is kind of the unofficial anthem of the Psychedelic Goa Trance community. It's from right at the beginning by one of the cornerstones of the music. The opening notes are instantly recognizable and the song captures the spirit and energy of the new sounds that were breaking through at that point in time.

    Don't worry. It is all shit. Don't waste you time trying to figure it out. =) lololol These might not be up your alley, maybe they will be, I dunno. Try giving a listen to: Texas Faggott - Petoman's Peflett (Exogenic Records) Darshan - Awakening (Flying Rhino Records) Prana - Geomantik (Matsuri Productions) Prometheus - Corridor of Mirrors (Twisted Records) Juno Reactor - Beyond the Infinite (Blue Room Released)

    I thought Transwave got back together years ago with that Backfire album (or whatever). Meh Not really caring about this one but will be pleasantly surprised if it comes out good

    and I understand that it was a pain in the ass for you to make your order, with all of those steps and time wasted, but that's because of your money management problems, not the label or album. in the future, keep $50 in an Emergency Album Purchase account so that you don't need to deal with any of that

    I read what you posted and your anger still makes no sense. You got your copy. You don't need to pay higher prices. End of story. Anything after that, let's say demand is so great that they print another 604 copies, this has no influence on you. You got your copy, at the price you wanted. Win. Done. I'm not trying to piss you off. I just really don't see what the fuss is about.

    People are probably canceling orders, or credit cards are being denied, or a variety of other reasons. Why would it matter? Are you only buying it to keep it sealed and flip it with a profit on eBay or something?

    Bought! Stoked! I wonder what will get here first, this or that nervasystem from months ago... lolololol

    The OG 12" is fucking slick. It is easy to understand why one was released and the other not. They are different, but no need to release two versions of the same track at the same time. And if you haven't heard Seven Serpents before, well, one cannot explain God. One has to witness it...
  18. the goa constrictor
    Slight Return and the OG 12" are different.
  19. the goa constrictor
    Future Rocks is a criminally underrated gem of a track. This is what dark psytrance should sound like. This is creepy and fucking awesome. A+
  20. the goa constrictor
    seriously. can we get an edit?

    After that interview aired, there were some threads on the IM forums about it. One of their fans told me that if I ever go to Israel, he was gonna kill me. lololol I guess some IM fans don't have a sense of humor.

    I love you DAT Records! I was chatting with Gus Till a while back and he mentioned an OG unreleased mix of Funkus Munkus... You know, in case you feel like tracking that down for the next comp. (and maybe you can convince Simon to let you release the 45 minute Hallucinogen remix of Slinky Wizard's "The Wizard" too...) =) xoxox

    If you're gonna dig into Platipus Records with Union Jack, I highly recommend the double album from Quietman called "Shhh" The first disk is a masterful psychedelic melodic progressive acid trance album. Really prime of that era of Platipus. Then the second disk is beautiful ambient and downtempo music. I can't recommend it enough. The piano and melodies on it are so lush. Definite A+ material.

    I am still waiting for a remaster of Intellect as the mastering of this album is absolutely atrocious. I agree that this is one of the prime examples of why Goa Trance was so powerful back in the day, but some labels really dropped the ball here and there on the mastering. This isn't the only comp with this problem and most of the tracks on here got released elsewhere and have other mastering choices, but Intellect is not one of those and the flatness of it makes my heart weep when I play it out A+ comp as far as track selection goes C/C- for mastering
