welcome home everyone (most likely tomorrow or whenever it may be) now we want pics and stories, plenty of stories and reviews

ok so the goa purists comment is gone so i guess my reply was redundant.

press CTRL, and then drag the things down, and you will rezise them all at the same time. =) if you mouseover the small black lines that form the box around the channel name; it turns into a thing you can then change size with. and if you hold CTRL while doing it, it will change them all. and may i recommend an update to cubase 10, its amazing! granted im only on 9.5 but had a 60 day trial of 10 recently. so now im just saving up :p

impossible to answer, but Filteria - Daze (both Wormhole and Big Blue are signature tracks not to mention the absolutely gorgeous Filtertraces), Mindsphere - Mental Triplex, and hallucinogen - lone deranger are three i can think of immediately that has superb if not perfect production

Just 1st listen atm. AP vs Mindpshere is a very accurate description! That is, to the sound signature/mixing style/production style. (Its much more Mindsphere than it is AP, though - overall ) The writing of the music itself; only at 1st listen though - seem to be on the slightly hasty side. I kinda have to agree to a minor extent to what GhostOnAcid said. it seems a bit "arpeggio ultra 303 3/16th ping pong delay deluxe" . But its a great album (still, 1st listen only ) and im curious to see how it grows on me.

clean

i should have made my list recent too, i thought, then i thought some more and realised that IS my recent list hehe. the old stuff is hard to just stop listening to all together. 'sweet list btw, cool addition with the afterthoughts .. and I fully agree on your sentiment on Sunshine, that is also my favorite track off of genesis. I think. But in contrast to you, i actually really like that album, and think many tracks on there sound really interesting and very unique sound indeed. Why? amongst others. Sunshine is for sure the easiest to like on the album.

i certainly like these topics.. i love to see what people write down, and to recognise music you also love. or give you brand new artists/tracks to discover. Its a cool thing to see. and i also know its human nature to write lists so please, have fun. so my intention was to create a list that has 10 tracks, each with an artist you think is worthy of belonging in a top 10. I realise you probably have 50 artists you wanna put there (I do). So just make it a recent list, or whatever your memory comes up with. and by favorite i dont mean the best. So it can be that quirky track that noone likes but you. Or whatever. or it IS the best one. dont matter. Just dont use the same tracks as those in the top 3 from top 3 topic no inbound order btw! 1. Man With No Name - Quietman - The sleeper remix (Axis Flip still the best ) 2. Cosmosis - Moonshine 3. Infected Mushroom - Spaniard 4. Filteria - Filtertraces (Abstract Dream Remix) 5. Artifact303 - For a better world 6. Green Nuns of the Revolution - Klunk 7. Astral Projection - The Nexus 8. Vibrasphere - Thermal Twist (the single best progressive trance track there is ) 9. California Sunshine - Tokyo Underground 10. Blue Planet Corporation - Alidade I put the one in Bold letters as the best one in the list.. so please do that too, i think it adds another layer into it

I'm not a huge fan of his first two albums either, they are a bit on the chaotic side. With daze the mixing got really really good and I think this one was a few years after daze, so he was a bit experimental with this release but I think he nailed it. Then with lost in the wild the chaos came back again unfortunately, but lost is still great not just as good as this or Daze

personally i love the fun but compettive aspect of a remix competition. would this be of interest? theres alot of amateurs and pros here, so it could be a very cool mishmash of results... just checking if that is something anyone else would find fun. (so for example a random track that everyone tries to remix to the best of their ability in a given timeframe; and then a judge chooses a winner we had somehting like this going all the time back in the early 2000s on a forum i used to frequent then.. and it was alot of fun!

it was allight a bit eventless but nice sound quality. i prefer that space monkey track similar style but a bit more digital sounding than this. anyway, time for some oldie but goldie it didnt age that great tho. just sounds dated now. IIRC eizen engineered the track on an Atari back then. so not bad at all (did use alot of outboard gear though , obviously)

wow so freaking good!! the ending part was so gorgeous too, that melody.... reminds me of that paul oakenfold tune "ready steady go" edit 3 days later: omg this is amazing mixing is a bit murky if i am being technical but its extremely minor, but it does adjust the grade from perfect to near perfect

one of his absolute finest works! up there with filter traces, easily. and i love how underrated it is i remember many shunning it when it came out. .. :p guess its too "trancy" and "cheesy" for some , but i adore those type of cheesy key changes if done in a sofisticated way. well done mr. filteria. i imagine i would go nuts over this track back in my e days of the early 00s

i have huuuuge respect for this album too, nice review @Jon Cocco

ok so on youtube, every single version is really quiet. So i doublechecked and the Cd is actually quiet too. here is a 2019 version of one of my favorites, Zebra.

thought of an album that is also from 98 and sounds very high tech... sun project - macrophage. superb sound quality.

sweet, nice to see some love for the guy. @Blubber im gonna check those tracks out as ive not heard them yet (the she-va tracks) thanks

one of yahels finest .... if not, THE wish someone would remix this... it needs more versions.....

those tracks are really nice btw, the ones from material music. i checked a couple on youtube. it feels like they make an homage to the world of psychedelic trance with their music. i think thats really cool. i dont think at all in terms of stealing or even borrowing. for goatrance, its such a small genre everyone can recycle everything as far as im concerned. its a long way to go for a melody or a tune to become over-saturated. (one of those that has; is that freaking e-rection - out there we are stoned track. feels like that one has like 20 remixes from big names.... and just why in the hell did x-dream put TWO freaking mixes of it on their latest album when there were room for remixes of Brain forest which is a track alot of people arent even familiar with and has amazing remix potential)

@psytoneswhos that? that sounds quite nice =) reminds me of euro prog goa from early 2000s like spirallianz and the likes.

i finally remembered the track i was scattering my brain over... that reminds me of silicon sound, and is actually GOOD full on, borderline cheesy while not being cheesy. i hope you enjoy this one as much as i do. production quality is excellent, although youtube quality on this one is so-so. Unfortuneately there are two versions, one at 7.37 and one at 8.48 (i think) and that one sounds way different. but they are titled exactly the same. anyway

not sure we had a topic about this guy? a bit of a strange one. cant think of anyone sounding like this. and im not sure even what to classify it as. Well, its obviously Goatrance. and thats about it. i really like some of his stuff curious if you guys even heard of him (although im sure you did) also googling biot with site:psynews.org brings up at least one interview and one review. he doesnt score very high in production quality though, it sounds a bit strange. but for what it is, and the time period, and the music being very interesting at least; i think its fine to sound a bit off. Oxygen Orgasm is a VERY fine tune, though, probably the best one.

makes sense. it sounds exactly that good.

seems really really nice =) downtempo is not my forte but i had to chime in to say that the production quality is really high nice one

One thing I've noticed that not alot of artists do (that I know of) is that his climactic melodies are near exact same patterns as the bassline. Or exactly in some tracks. That should be lazy but he makes it work really well. Then ofc his sampling is rather simple and straight forward and again, he just makes it work. I think the simplistic style is what makes it easy to love. What you see is what you get. Or rather, hear.
