the goa constrictor

...i am very excited to listen to this for the first time with the listeners of my show... =) Thank you!

Good morning! I think it's about time for me to clean my room. There is still a box or two of stuff that I have never unpacked since I moved in January and I have music all over the place. The hurricane of CDs strewn about every surface in the room has made it hard to do anything in this space and the boxes serve as dangerous icebergs in the middle of the night. This is why I feel it is time to clean. I might do some cleaning on the show, I also might do the cleaning just after the show. I dunno. I really don't know what else to put up in this space though... so I am writing about cleaning... maybe you should clean too... FABULOUS!

I'll totally disagree with this. An artist is meant to write songs while the mastering house cleans them up and makes them sound as good as possible. I don't necessarily want to listen to music created by someone who masters music. Just like most session musicians suck at writing music but are fantastic at playing it, there are different roles for different people and a person who crafts brilliant music shouldn't need to learn all the ins and outs of proper mastering too.

I hope you realize how terribly inaccurate this statement was. Have you ever been to Europe? The regions in which events were thrown and artists lived, are rather small and local. They have a fairly cheap local airline system too. Flying an artist from Australia, Finland, Japan, or anywhere in Europe, over to America is about a grand per person. In the UK, you could have a party with 7 internationally known and huge artists. To make that happen in the USA, you would need a completely different type of party and scene. Because the UK was able to nurture these artists and this scene 15 years ago, it was able to develop and grow in a way that wasn't happening in the USA. Parties all over the USA have been going off and kicking ass, without profit or prestige, for well over 10-15 years. I'm also rather curious as how you define successful and what it is you're looking for in a scene.

Pre-sales end Monday @ noon (PDT)!

Only two weeks away!

I think this is where we begin to understand your disclaimer regarding yourself as The album is fantastic. Great Kino Oko variety and style. Great atmosphere and energy. Wonderfully unique and truly a Kino Oko album. People should be buying this up and supporting the artists who dance fantastically on the edges of the paradigms in which their scene is rooted.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING! Wait... Can you feel it... Sense it... It's Friday! And not just any Friday. The Friday of a 3-day weekend (for those of you lucky bastards with jobs)! And on Sunday, here in the USofA, we'll be celebrating our countries independence. You know, it was like the World Cup, only we kicked Britain's ASSES! Then after that ass kicking, well, we're dicks. Human history is riddled with horrific violence, evil, and wrongdoing. We're quite the shitty species, and honestly, I blame religion for it all. So this Sunday, while celebrating your freedom, burn a picture of the Pope or something. Take a shit on Jesus and then spend a moment in silence to mourn the lives of those killed and tortured under the name of some God. oh, and tune-in in to today's show! FABULOUS!

GOOD MORNING/AFTERNOON/EVENING! Holy whack unbelievable weather! Yesterday was the solstice and today is summer... and the weather is indeed cooperating! How have you all been? I've been great! A bit busy, which is why I haven't been able to kick it with y'all in a couple of weeks, but I felt the urge to get my swerve on with you all today and am reaching for that damn sky! There is a lot to cover during today's show, including info on this summer's greatest events, newest music, and bestest jokes; but first, let's figure out when the show will air! FABULOUS!

Was it during the song with the generic Apple Logic Audio error tone? That is indeed some good timing!

GOOD MORNING! Today is that magical day in our Psychedelic Trance communities (that recognize dates in the Month/Day format) where we praise to the spirit of the Goa. This is a special day for another reason too. I am actually doing my homework again, FOR THE VERY LAST TIME. My FINAL final paper. The last one. I turn it in on Monday and then I will have EARNED my Master's Degree. So, today's show will be both AWESOME and BORING as fuck-all. Watch me type words on my laptop. Watch me drink coffee. Watch me eat reheated pasta leftovers. Watch me scratch my head and pick my nose. Listen to the glorious sounds of BEAUTIFUL GOA TRANCE. I'll be digging through some old vinyl as well as playing some tracks off of a playlist while a I type like mad. Request your favorite Goa Trance classic. I think I can safely say that there will be NO POP MUSIC in today's show. This is a strictly Goa affair. FABULOUS!

Shit, I felt that way with Flying Eye Land. I thought that album totally blew...

GOOD MORNING! Woo0o0o0oo00oooo! So last weekend was a KILLER start to the summer party season and I was able to listen to music in the place I feel is most "home" to psychedelic music. It moved me greatly. Unfortunately, my good friends who threw the party got into a bit of trouble with the police (THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE AND CARE ABOUT YOUR DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY!!) and so today's show is going to be a bit of a Psychedelic-Trance-Meets-Anti-Authoritarianism type of show. Even if you didn't go to the party and want to support our little scene, feel free to PayPal _anything_ to squee.isme@hotmail.com and help them out with their court costs. This isn't my wallet, but our community is small and I respect it as my own. That said, the theme of the show sounds rip-roaring and I'm ready to fuck shit up. FABULOUS!

Dude, Tesseract! Used to buy that stuff in the mid 90's. Great fast and powerful hard acid trance.

I've got strong ties to some early morning full-on of this variety. This album is definitely not of the caliber of what was written in the mid 1990's, but nothing really is. I take this album for what it is and the full tracks definitely move me. Trust me, I was prepared to hate this and slam on it as much as you all are. If I only listened to the samples a few times, I probably would have never picked it up. But hearing the full album play out a few times really took hold with me. The melodies are cheesy as fuck all. The guitars seem almost out of place. It has a weird feeling of why through out it. But it somehow transcends all of it and is a really powerful album to me. This is one of the reasons that I am overly positive in my review. I find the album to be really uplifting and strong in a way that should be expressed. I know it's an upward battle to try and convince anyone of this, which is why I am being very strong in my positive review. I really think it is worth listening to a few times and allow it a chance to work into your body. I have played the album for numerous people and they are all kind of taken aback by it. At first they seem kind of quiet, but by track 4 or 5, they really find root in it. It's definitely an album I don't see many people playing out, but I think it is damn solid and far better than anything they have done since Nasha. I thought Flying Eye Land was rubbish and everything else really. They had a few moments with Nasha and Summer of 89, but that was about it. This album kind of captures that innocence of long ago.

Yeah, I know it is just Miko, but I didn't really think that was too relevant.

As I said, this is definitely not Nasha or anything. But for what it is, an album of modern mixes and a few new tracks, it does offer the energy that California Sunshine is known for. Is it the pinnacle of their career? No. Is it a really solid album for our summer camping experiences? Definitely

This album is outstanding. A few tracks that seem to go nowhere, but the rest are quite unique and very engaging. Delicious stuff. Definitely not your average downtempo/dub/chill out album.
