Who cares what the next big thing will be. There will always be a handful artists producing fine music in their respective field, including psy, and whether their music fits into the 'new big thing' or 'latest trend' is irrelevant.

Shpongle - Ineffable Mysteries From Shpongleland
Charlie replied to MattMan's topic in General Psytrance
I like the cover but really... it's just a cover. It could be the best cover or the worst cover in the world and it wouldn't matter, it's all about the music. Everything else is trimmings. -
I didn't know there was a new one. Is it a remastered version, or a completely new album from the same team?

Only a fraction of Simon's output over the last five or six years can be classed as what we define as 'proper' trance and, subsequently, I think it's fair to say he now enjoys creating and, presumably, listening to ambient trance and the mixture of traditional live music fused with electronic music much more. I think he, like a lot of the older trance fans, myself included, is kinda bored of the clinical, almost antiseptic nature of trance. It's too restrictive, particularly for an artist of his considerable calibre.

I think the 'new' breed of goa-rock very cheesy too. Some of the older stuff from SUN Project and Electric Universe still sounds cool but, generally, I find acoustic guitars (including the arabic, african and asian variants on the acoustic guitar) suit goa much more. They may not have the same power or drive of the electric guitar, but they evoke more subtlety and mystery and that, to me, is what goa is all about.

Trading Hallucinogen CD's is like trading souls. It's wrong.

I think it an excellent album and a perfect mix of traditional, acoustic and electronic instruments blended into a beautiful, shifting and vibrating fusion of psychedelia. Parts of it remind me of electronic raggae somehow and that really gets me moving and grinning in equal measure. I don't like the new heavy metal-esque tracks very much either- especially as the first one sounds like a Prodigy - Firestarter rip-off, but the other new tracks with their persian/arabic sounds and influences are beautiful, rather unique and very atmospheric. In regards to the real drums, maybe I'm getting old or have been listening to 'normal' music too much of late, but they don't tire me or bring on listening fatigue at all, indeed it's the electronic beats with their perfectly uniform rhythm and identical sound that have that effect on me these days, as the 1055th beat sounds exactly the same as the 1044 that went before it. But anyway, yeah, all in all it's an excellent album.

Jazz can be pretty cool and is often regarded as the truest, most creative genre in music, free from any rules to tame and contrain it.
