  3. i posted a review of this here > http://www.psynews.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=24694
  4. Artist: Sensient Album: Pressure Optimal Label: Zenon Records Year: 2005 Format: CD Country: Australia Songs: 1. Tropicana (139 BPM's) 2. Rhythmic Transposition (134 BPM's) 3. I.D.E (135 BPM's) 4. Guns n Ammo (135 BPM's) 5. Lather (138 BPM's) 6. Flashback (136 BPM's) 7. Where are We? (136 BPM's) 8. Multiplier (133 BPM's) 9. Immersion (128 BPM's) Bio-Blurb: Tim Larner has been featured during the years in Tatsu Records, Zillion Mental Anarchie, Groove Zone, Flow records, the list goes on. Not too long ago, the Larner brothers started Zenon Records in Australia , to promote the wealth of promising acts coming out of the island. Showcasing an interesting side of ‘gutsy' progressive without loosing an inch of the musical aspects of the production. The output is radically different from anything in the shelves these days under the label ‘psychedelic' or ‘progressive', nevertheless staying true to the grassroots of the Sensient vibe. Why you might like it: The album is a complex collection of different rhythms and sounds intertwined in between every song breathing new life to the dance floors. Most of the beat work stays within the same boundaries Tim has displayed in the past, but some others are just straight out of an 80's techno-beat box. It would be kind of silly to even try, pointing out every influence this album has crafted, but let's give it a try: There is some progressive, there is a clear techno phase, we have jazzy moment's a-la Thelonious Monk, oh yeah… it is still really groovy, edgy psy trance somehow. Sensient has mastered the ‘rhythmic transposition' effortlessly leap-froging beats in perfect harmony with a winning formula. check out the rest of the review at sonic-energy.net including the samples and the highlights :

  8. Yup it's out and it's rocking Songs: 01. Terminator - KFSBK On Submarine (148 BPM's) 02. Seroxat - Communication Breakdown RMX (146 BPM's) 03. Equilibrium - Ex-Er-Sis (147) 04. N3XU5 Vs. Darkpsy - No Network (147 BPM's) 05. M.W.S. - In Malo Veritas (145) 06. Freaking - Depravation Chambers (144 BPM's) 07. Big Noise - Power Ride (148 BPM's) 08. Cyberplanet - Wasabi (148 BPM's) 09. Exited - Lirik On Outer Space (146 BPM's) 10. Derango - Boomorgon Remix (150 BPM's) A great assortment of ingenious acts on the bleeding edge of musical coherence with mere cacophony. My Highlights : * Terminator – KFSBK on Submarine It did not take the whole track to terminate me, but it came close. The kick on the song comes with the typical hard-core timbre with a tail of 148 BPM's. It feels like a human heart drifting back and forth. If you ask me, is too much over 8 minutes, where is a break when you need one? Everything seems fine except, the quasi-Michael Jackson sample woo-hoo-ing now and again. There is a love-hate relationship with me. Might be a deadly song if you don’t know what you are getting yourself into. * Freaking – Depravation Chamber The new Russian full-on managess to build another layer on top of the incessant drum work, floating above at a different rate, from the banging with pure psychedelic ear candy. Freaking displays enjoyable and quirky samples with traces of progressive, on top a kick and bass that you know are just full on. Complex music designed to be heard from the other side of... the pond. * Cyberplanet – Wasabi Funky sound on with a standard bass line and congas echoing on the kick, along synth lines reminiscent of an electricity discharge. There is this magical melody somewhere by the end I can only associate with some sort of wooden xylophone, of probable Asian descent. Interesting syncopated break by the middle picking up the pace by the end; after all Wasabi does stop stinging for a minute or after you tasted it long enough.The green spread only gets spicier as the timeline runs its course. * Derango - Boomorgon Remix Jens Eriksson and Ola Eriksson’s sound remains eerie and twisted, but never dispersed nor spotty. The synth effects are original, there is still a melody there somewhere and the tweaking of the voice samples are a delight. It’s the Örebro sound we have come to expect.

But hey what are comments worth?? the cost of posting this message... what are you using to "arrange it" so to speak?
