This jewel. Been following them since day 1 and never got disappointed: ...and this one - just like movie - just amazing music

The movie is better

Just found this one: best comment ever on the US elections and elections in general.

That will become clear in the (near) future BUT I'm happy you noticed PS Thanks to all members posting the (mainly) positive and negative feedback here: makes us motivated for the next one to come...

THX guys and good luck Ordered my copy and can't wait to hear it remastered.

Off course, I didn't state it wasn't there and single responsible. The rest I agree 100%. Society changed a lot. At the same Spanish party I was talking to Shiva Jörg - with whom I shared the line up back then - and I asked him some questions regarding that change. He added that you created bookings for yourself in the 90's when you were original and inventive as a dj or artist. Creating new things that stood out of the rest of the field. Meaning: if you were a musician thinking outside the box you got booked. Nowadays cross bookings too add to the destruction of that original philosophy. More than enough line ups are dominated by cross bookings as a business model. Creativity isn't that much rewarded as it used to be. BUT even in this climate originality is to be found, like it always was ...makes it therefore even more special I keep positive

Good luck guys!!! It is always nice to see a fellow dj make a personnel compilation come out. PS With M-Run and Artha we are humble and honoured that we could help and contribute at this one

Well, I have my reasons 1. My first wake up call was a few years ago, when I had to play at a Goa party abroad of Belgium (not Israel this time, but Spain) and played a Artha-tribute set. The organiser said this music was too psychedelic and too futuristic - lol! She literary said: "People take cocaine and speed, they crave beat music and yours is just too psychedelic." Since than it strikes my mind and I study the reactions from people on the dance floor more into detail. She really has a point. In general people indeed consume more easy going drugs 'to stay' inside the comfort zone and choose more for mind narrowing drugs instead of the less 'safe' mind expending onces. Goa consumers at parties and festivals have changed a lot, so did the 'music' that has been produced now: maybe we can really talk about neo Goa, but more since 2010 instead of since 2000, when these type of drugs really took it almost all over and everything - including its 'artists' - followed. The beat became more and more primary and the rest of the sounds is filling it up. 2. An artist - who his name I shall not mention here - who makes newer Goa and tours a lot over the entire globe - told a friend of him (also an artist) to better make easy going and more superficial melodic Goa (read: less psychedelic) that the crowd can easily consume. The music isn't that good, but you tour a lot (on big festivals). Seems he is right, cause he is darn 'successful' these days More safe, predictable and less psychedelic Goa merges more and more. Off course there will be exceptions, but ... damned a 2nd non political correct post (look at me go). Let me hope no organisers will read this

To be honest: these remixes sound like the average 'neo' goa imo: clean and very prominent bass with a repetitive 1,2,3,... rhythm in it and less psy and a more simple 'melody'. Especially around 0:40, 2:30 and 5:20, 7:10 it is very clear. Since coke and speed took over the (goa) scene dance floors, people want more bass music, less focused on the psy side of Goa. Here the (Brazilian) crowd seems to love it, and that is what gets booked - Goa is business nowadays, and with busines the music quality follows (down hill). Looking at their reactions, I think this new generation loves it and doesn't consider it a butchering (by a lack of musical back ground and history?). So, this was my political incorrect post - haha!

It was hard to choose between the uptempo and downtempo version. But this will be the one for me

Haha, best post of 2017 so far Will be hard to beat Well, I don't agree fully. Track 3 & 4 really have some (volume) over steer in my opinion. High tones are a bit too loud in comparison to the sub base and low tones. I think

You pay attention very well BUT, we are working on it BUT as you know the Cronomi-way is a steady way - haha! Quit making Goa trance. Is into hip & trip-hop now. As far I'm well informed. Indeed, BUT a 2nd album would be nice as I adore the sound they made ion the past. Really unique things I would like to hear more in the form of new tracks

I love the mastering: the (sub)base is so fucking amazing and wonderful present. Like everything floats on this fluffy deep mellow context where the trippy trance drive gets it's full energy from. Pumps like crazy. What strikes my mind the most, is that the sound is very dynamic and NOT loud at all. Something that's really been missing in the modern (goa) scene today (cf. maximal mastering for out door sound systems). Maybe this youtube user compressed the sound to make it louder and that is why you get the not good youtube sound. Seems like that?! Or what is your source, the original disc? For a test, put up the original disc on play now. I trust my Equators on this: badly produced music they tare apart and badly mastered music sounds always too loud and pains the ears. Edit: track 4 has issues I think: over steer on the high tones.

I don't think Cronomi has enough resources and man power (like some others) to create a typical hollow internet hype But hey guys, chill down: I don't like this album either!!!

Sounds indeed more like a mediocre (sampled) remix* of both tracks. Or do goa artists also buy samples and melodies from agencies?

Tickets arrived PM me for one or more

Quote of the day. We have a winner True. They are one of the few labels releasing some good full on these days. Too bad this isn't the one. Well, like stated here before: it is actually more normal trance, especially when one listens to the melodies and arrangements.

Spot on! 1. Another very important thing is, that enough people here don't dare to openly speak their mind cause they are afraid to do so. Almost every form of criticism is often seen and interpreted as "you are against us". We have seen it in the topics about mastering, or when we discuss the technical side of music making like production skills, or the Anoebis-Boom interview when we talked about the importance of production in goa music (where even the criticism was banned to a closed tread),.. We live in a time were many people are over sensitive, and feedback is mainly absorbed as "you are negative" or their replies ridiculed. Many people - even when they had good arguments - were seen as trolls, and their opinions taken mainly with a lot of hostile reactions. With even replies like: "why are you bashing here?" I think artists, labels, dj's and the general public should realise we can only get the same level of quality (of what we idealise as "old is gold") when we put the same creative effort into making music today. Yes, this means we should involve all and be a bit more mentally strong to cope with (well founded) criticism and (negative) feedback. 2. And everything is so connected (look at the line ups these days - it is 80% cross bookings - maybe it was also like that in the past?). So being afraid not to get booked or heard from again plays a huge role. There are many goa dj's on this forum, never (daring) to speak their mind openly; cause - in what I feel - they are connected with the label or with an artist which have both connections to get them on a party, festival,... Our ego's have become mad in that way. 3. In our time now, we live in an age when people just do less effort in creative writing and dare to dig deep and fall not in clichés about everything from the past was better. We are becoming more and more passive consumers and let everything come to us. This is dangerous, as we destroy the critical feedback on music. The music we adore so much. When I started collecting goa in '99 I spend most of my student savings on music. I never bought a CD - yes we had to do that in order to have music - that was bad. Why? Cause it costed me much money (back in those days around 20/25 euro - I still have some CDs with the price tags on them). We had to be critical...(not stating there was no crap back than). In my opinion music became to accessible and way to cheap. The online culture makes music appear as free and effortless in obtaining it. I was even called greedy by a guy cause we ask €12 for a brand new CD that has been worked on for 4 years. Imagine?! One artist from the 90's told me: "You were never booked in Goa on a party if you weren't inventive and stood out against all the others". And to be honest I agree. Let us face it, close your eyes on an average psy dance floor and try to guess who is playing a live set. I’m sure many will mingle them. The creative uniqueness is disappearing everywhere: artists, dj's and in the taste of the general public. We all tend to move to a mono culture, afraid to be left alone. Hypes and followers are born. For example: look at the biggest festivals: they sell tickets even before a line up is fully announced: they are good salesmen. They sell an experience instead of music. We also here became followers of adverts and media gurus; we dare not to criticise. Afraid to feel left out of this so called 'experience or gathering of the tribe' - lol! I'm not lying; you can read a very interesting book about this: "Charles Taylor - Sources of the Self". As a Canadian philosopher he explains this trend into detail. And it is is very recognisable into the (goa) music business. To end with a goa quote: "We create our own happiness" PS I'm not sure you have a reason to complain Jos Suntrip artists dominate - or are almost always involved - in almost every line up in neo goa festivals and parties across the 3 countries where goa parties are given on a regular bases: Belgium, Spain and Croatia. So I think Suntrip isn't 'unhip' like you state As far I can recall your Suntrip sales tread of last year, you guys sell enough CDs to survive, no? You have build up such a strong image, a solid label and brand name that everyone recognises. I wouldn't panic that fast

Fuck yeah; already the production level alone (that is so high) makes me piss my pants of joy Can I swear some more? I'm a good puppy I so adore the funkiness in his 100% psychedelic techno music. Would release shit like this without doubt... Talking about track 1, 3 and 8- bliss!!! Rest is mediocre.

1) Off course, you are right. BUT, I wasn't stating this movies must be true. They must have one thing in common: inspiration & alternative truth. 2) Not sure if the rest of the world thinks this about the USA, otherwise they wouldn't find so much allies to bomb...
