That's me with new psytrance. Keeping my mouth open, that is.

Oh thanks mate I appreciate the kind words!

So perhaps you're part of Goat Ranch Prophets? For ages I've been trying to find out who are these guys and what the **** are they doing on my albums.

Doof & Simon - Cosmic Toothgrinder Received a dat rip today. Good track for sure...

Hey RL, it's 100% soft synths in my case. (I've always had what you'd call eh... "student's zero budget studio".)

Hah. Not really I suppose? What differentiates neogoa and old school goa, in my books, is the fact that back then, when you got all that analog gear, there was usually a lot of knob twisting at play. These days producers, not only that they overpack their tracks _the wrong way_ (there's a bad ratio between high and low frequencies), don't seem to know the skill of manipulating that "knob twist" in their tracks; the synth timbre is constantly the same. So, even if you'd change the melody and all, even then it's a bit tiresome to hear...

I want you to know it was fully a personal statement (about complaining), not in any way related to you. Yeah I guess you really should hear the full tracks (all are 10+ minutes) to get the picture.

Yes, yes sir I am. But sure enough, instead of complaining I'm trying to do something about it in my own little way.

Hey wait a minute... I remember, some time back now, when in the middle of DAT ripping session I found a ludicrous goa track! (Edit: Nowadays I think there's some good parts in this track but the main melody is still quite trainwreck mastery)

Yeah this one's nice. I might've made a good purchase here...

You guys both enjoying their music I decided to give Ju Ju Space Jazz a chance and it's indeed quite good. I even ended up finding a very weird (psytrance?) release by one of their members and bought the only copy @ discogs: https://www.discogs.com/Harrys-Laundry-Disco-Prickle/release/5845144

Trans-Lucid.

Prana - Mugen rmx is quite special. There's a couple more that are good versions. But overall I'd agree. I agree with these! There's many more, too many especially talking about new stuff... but I don't like the trash talk so let's let it be.

Oh man, I loved that outlook! And yes, the red highlighted ones usually deserved it.

I'm very happy to say this album has been officially released on Ektoplazm label and, naturally, it's also available on the Ektoplazm.com website: http://www.ektoplazm.com/free-music/sab-kuch-milegator-kauas-aikain-taa

Nice one Ormion, nice one. Almost fell into that trap...

Thought some might be interested...

Me, the artist am broke and need few bucks. So now I made enough money for food for few days by uploading unfinished random shitty traxx for the delight of the not so intelligent music lovers!!! Make no mistake, this is NOT the "new TF album" or some "current state of suomisaundi". This is just junk from 10 years that hasn't found it's place anywhere, so if it ends up in YOUR stereo or headphones then it's YOUR OWN FAULT and critizism will be like preaching to the choir. Especially if you don't suffer from hunger or poverty then you can't understand anyway.. ..you'd have to eat those pickelz if you were my family! I mean, would YOU eat THOSE pickelz in THAT jar???.. ..i¨d think twice about that one mate.. Love, Mr. Thick.

Guess I can only echo the viewpoint that psytrance can be complex just as much it can be simple. Same goes for all electronic genres.

Goa's second golden age is yet to come.

Half a year has passed and all I've got to show for it: Tandu - Multimoods (15 euros!) Hallucinogen - Space Pussy CD (20e) va - Psy-Harmonics Volume One (20e) Moonweed Nervasystem - Time Travel Pickyness and chronic lack of money.

Looking forward.

It's not a big story - I've got some unreleased DAT material and back in the days, when I saw Anjuna having a good go, I approached Tal the label manager and asked if he'd like to release some tracks in my possession. The end result is the Total Eclipse & Tandu tracks here. The Tandu one, I'm quite sure no-one had it at the time, when I ripped the DAT tape it was also unnamed on it. I went to ask Ofer Dikovsky about and he'd say it's the 1st Tandu track they made! It didn't even have a name before but Ofer thought about it and decided "Let's call it Inception". (Maybe he likes the movie?)

I'm still happy to have participated in making this release happen. To cut the story short - the tracklist is almost flawless, it's my personal "retro va" favorite in fact. Anjuna had a good thing going back then...

I agree with recursion loop. Great production there's hardly two words to say on that. I'm not the biggest progressive fan myself, but can still appreciate a well made track and Mahanada is definitely that. Your track breaths and has that groovy aspect to it that's quite the key element in progressive. I think it's not unfair to say thou, that the track could be a bit more juicy and develop into more drastic measures.
