Aspartic

That numbered third track is indeed the very best one. And the only reason this EP exists. Weird release all in all. Especially the EP name. I mean, who came up with that? And who said: "damn, that's the best idea for our new EP!"

Hehe, lol

Wow, sounds much more complete and professional than the first album. High chance I'm buying the CD next week! Love the crossover between old and new school.

Mmm, I see. I would love a second entire album, since an album is very personal and the artist can take time to tell a story. Well, nothing sure is known, we'll just have to see. Who knows..

I was wondering if there are any plans or rumours that Zsolt is preparing a new album? And if so, what would be the timeline? 2017, 2018? It's been 5 years since he raised the Goa bar. Back To Space is my all time favorite and my Artifact alarm rate has fallen below zero atm.

Sometimes I find these hidden pearls, and Goa Meditation is one of them. I'm glad it's not the regular psybient stuff, goa just downtempo. No, it's a collection of very original gems, each with a character of their own. Zopmanika and JBC Arkadii have a fierce New Beat sound to them. Really tense. Katedra's They Came In Peace has a stunning industrial feel to it and makes me sometimes think about KLF's What Time Is Love (original). Ufomatka's Flying Saucer is quite hypnotic and Deja Dejl is so natural and folk, this CD has it all. One that shouldn't be missed!

Great! JIS and Fiery Dawn samples sound immense!

I didn't enjoy his previous album, but the new samples sound much more attractive to me. More melodies!

Ok you started a boring topic, here's a boring photo. Well, perhaps it's kinda voyeuristic to see people's living rooms and pc corners.

A buy link would be so handy

Amazing indeed Jos. A true trance odyssee

It's an evolution I've been watching from far, but I do see some of my former normal trance heroes making psy-influenced hard trance. E.g. Sean Tyas, Activa and even Alex Morph.

Exactly what I was gonna say. Still, genres like goa are nowhere near mainstream imo. Don't hear it on the radio nor at the commercial grand festivals. Psytrance on the other hand, is getting a way to those stages. But slowly. Still I don't think it will get very popular like that dance shit dj mag top 100 kinda stuff they play at festivals.

Btw, just finished another listen in the car of the first three tracks. Sacred Sands is soooo sweet! That hypnotic bassline and gentle acid sounds... gorgeous!

True, Richpa. I forgot to mention that I'd loved an extra track on the album. 7 tracks is too few. But on the other hand, quality beats quantity. It's give and take.

Haha lol! But indeed it's an mp3 player named Walkman.

So I promised I'd say something more here about Ra's new album Earthcall. There are many things I search for in todays goa trance. Deepness, warmth, energy, an uplifting feel and the old good finishing touch and eye for detail. The first time round I found the album to be very OK, but needed another listen. Soon I felt that I can put this album on repeat again and again without getting tired of even one fricking layer. This album should not just fly over lightly as I'm putting this on the shelf together with Artifact303's Back To Space. That other masterpiece I'm still not tired of. Really, I get into my car and put this CD on. I go to sleep and put this CD on in my walkman. It is so heartwarming, innovative and complete. Complete might be the best way to describe the music. The whole album also breathes positive vibes. And everything it still so hypnotic and psychedelic. The warmth and deepness of the basslines are so generous it's ridiculous. Well done Ra, mr. mastering Schuldt and Suntrip for bringing it to the masses. Need to give Earthcall 5/5. Genuinely brilliant in every way.

I really liked the track on Svemirski Hod so I had some high hopes for the album. Unfortunately for me, I am one of those guys who find it too goofy and busy. A shift to more goa influences would have been nice, but it's a shift to the weirder side. And too many chord changes for my taste as well. Probably great in its genre, but not for this bloke.

The Grudge (american remake) by far. It thrives on jump-moments, but does it very well. Event Horizon and Paranormal Activity are scary as hell as well. Oh yeah, Cube is a contestant as well.

Very good season 1, although it got very weird in the end with flashbacks, hallucinations etc.. Definately waiting for season 2.

The village of Wakken, Belgium

The buildup and break in this one is amazing. Had tears in my eyes back in the days. Adam Nickey at his absolute best. Sean Tyas made his best remix here. He gave Resound a little melody twist that is absolute gold. The track at my number one spot wil FOREVER remain this Signum remix of Danjo & Styles Duende. Heaven.

Bought them all What a difference in price between psyshop and Beatport. 3.82 eur at psyshop against more than 8 eur on BP.

Wow, all of these sound very good indeed! Especially that 3rd track is fierce!

I'll write more in the review section later, but this album is GOLD! Take 9th, spice it up with more energy and you have Earthcall. Brilliant mastering as well. Can't wait till the cd arrives next week.
