Good Dance Recordings

You can really throw anything . this one is beautiful Vocal: "Yeah... I can fly." lol 2:40 : brilliant! <3 goosebumps 4:50 : and here we go again! 5:30 : So beautiful... it's brilliant ... then everything comes back togheter again. He knows how to build a song . He's not the type of artist throwing everything at your face . We mean in a way you are listening to first 8 bars and then something abrupt comes up and you get it all down your face! Does that even make any sense? He loves to flow and isn't what trance is about? The Flow is one of the most important things in Trance music my friends! Feel the energy around you , feel the Force Remember mr.Miyagi and his philosophy about Karate? We think same applies here. <3 Great song. 5/5 We've nothing else to add and another one... we've nothing to add it's just... brill. People in Belgium didn't complain when he played this many years ago.

Now there's a brilliant one.

What is the step do you think he misses? The fact he released a lot of music? We've seen him making a goa song , he can come up with one in less than one day. He flows. Forgot to say when he started he could take a week up to a month to get a track out pretty solid but it's obvious that after many years he mastered his own art. Bulky? Depends from a person perspective. It's been 12/13 years he's been in the scene , we would call him creative and very active instead of just saying ... oh he's bulky. Nobody else does the goa style he makes so... tough. He does it lol. In a way he's actually more of a musical director than an artist in the same way a movie director makes a movie. Different movies = same director / producer. We think this applies to him musically. Different aliases = same producer. The content of each release being different of course. And coming from the same producer of course you can say hey it's filipe because yes there's always a certain style or touch . Same in a movie you can tell oh this is from Ridley Scott of this is from James Cameron from example. Would you call a movie producer bulky because he created a lot of movies? Same goes here. Filipe created a lot of different albums with different themes and so on. It's not like he's throwing songs in two seconds or non-sense noisy tracks. His music is very constructive. Well this is the way we see it. Take bit-head for example. Was it different? Yes. Can you tell it was Filipe ? Yes. So there ya go! We're pretty sure it didn't take him long too to make those of bit-head. He could take a month on a song , but for what? It wouldn't do any difference. He would probably just get bored and scrap it. When he starts a song he doesn't like to break the flow of a song and delaying it that would just be lazy or simply just... dumb. Unless you are out of time to complete a song but that's completely different.

107 minutes full of goa-trance. Songs in this release you can find 29th Entity , Amithaba , Lost and Sleeping Buddhas. Full and filled of buddhas this one is lol Enjoy. https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/liquid-sunshine-3

We might put it up again since you mentioned it. You've made other people curious lol It is indeed a good question : What is the best track by Filipe Santos? Post edit : We're listening to Amithaba Buddha - Ancient Glyphs and holy crap! .... Transwave anyone? https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/track/ancient-glyphs seriously it's so ... 'Anahata'! And some Mana Source songs for example the 'Heretic Visions , Moon Minerium , Karmagedon ' reminds us of EDP - Spiritual Hallucination style ! https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/track/heretic-visions-2 https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/track/moon-minerium https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/track/karmagedon

Is that a request for us to release it again? Filipe has no opinion on what concerns Denaris . He says it's mostly psytrance , very sparse and maybe chaotic madness. As for the rest of his tracks , it's really very hard to pick a favorite. He says the Ba'al project and the song Profane is interesting and he done another two in the new compilation and the Athenaia project is kinda on the same level , specially the 'Secret' song. It's really very hard to pick a favorite when most of it's all great stuff lol Every song seems to have something different and special , specially regarding his aliases which all kinda bring something new in a way... We take all lol!

Yeah lol Christmas came early this year! Merry Christmas! lololol

Oh , this was quite a surprise! Thank you very much Fungi. There's still quite a big lot to upload... we're working on some more unreleased stuff. We just put up Goa Gate Remastered again . https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/goa-gate-remastered

We are aware of this. It's so easy to come up and point fingers , insulting and say this or that ... people sometimes should point all their own fingers onto themselves and think who am i to judge? Many people unfortunately seem to say this or that when some seem to be much worse lol. For the ones that don't know what Sanctimonious means : it's basically someone 'making a show of being morally superior to other people'. What do we have to say about this ? There is no 'morally superior' . Not in our book. All this because of ego... people trying to look better than others so they can say : i'm better than you! 'Competition's' or look at me im better than you because i did this or im a manager and so on lol... It's sad , stupid and ridiculous. It really is. Sanctimonious... i am holier than you , i'm better than you... lol... and so many hypocrites and trolls! We don't care about any of this really lol. If people decide to act sanctimoniously towards us we will just simple turn our backs because it's all ridiculous and that's why we laugh ! We are all human... we all bleed the same. Now who is sanctimonious?

In the end it's always about the relationship that an artist keeps with his own music and Filipe is very much like that. That's why he hasn't chosen the path of 'ego , fames and fortunes' because he knows that all those things that will come along will come in between him and the music. Why do artists first albums are always the best? Has ever anybody ever thought of this? When artists start to 'climb up' things get messy. People can become arrogant and egocentric because they have so many fans and etc etc etc. Filipe prefers to be humble and he says : 'i'm just human. just because i make music doesn't make me more than you or me' . Everybody is good at something and he's good at this! He knows the music he makes is good and before anybody else comes to criticize his music , Filipe has already criticized himself lol! He knows what points he needs to work on and ones he doesn't. Usually he sets the bar really high and he's usually very fuzzy with his own productions. He can point which songs he likes more and which ones he doesn't like that much. But that's his opinion , some other people might come up and say those songs are pretty awesome. He knows his music inside out and vice-versa. It's simple as that. Yep and neither do we and truth is : nobody cares! lol Thank you for your purchase and for your kind support Anu .

It's funny you say that because it's actually the truth. There are many compilations that bear the title 'Goa' and there's no actual goa music in the disc. It's disappointing. We never had the chance to check these series but maybe the first series have more goa music than the last ones. The same happened with the Goa-Head series and probably many others.

We just read someone somewhere in russia saying that filipe has a trained bot lololololol.... oh my god how funny these things are. lololol... Ok , we admit Trance2MoveU . Filipe is what you stated ' A mechanized wizard with f*cking super goa powers. ' lolololol... No not really. He's just a simple human being that knows music since he was little. Of course this is all plain easy to him!

Hi again Bersa. You can find us at https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/ Enjoy the music!

Hello Bersa! We release Goa~Trance music.

Hi everybody! phew! It's been quite some work around here ! we still have to get through our list and check what's been up and not because we know some are still unreleased. Anyways here it is the Amithaba Buddha - Angels Trumpets. This was the one that Filipe intended at first but he was overthinking things at the time. We decided to put this one it's more psychedelic and underground in a way We uploaded all the songs and we will check them in time. Any problems we will correct them. The tracklist remains the same . We didn't feel the need to put the (title mix) and all songs are still the same. Enjoy! https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/angels-trumpets

That is correct. He was suffering of bipolar disorder for god knows how many years. He was constantly having mood swings , nervous breakdowns and several panic attacks. He is doing well now and we thank everybody for sending good wishes to him. As for the rest , he really doesn't care about who 'rules' or not . He doesn't do it for ego and he doesn't feel the need to 'show off'. He's a family person and he has made his choice. But the music of course will live on and he certainly knows from his musical experience that if these songs will be played by DJ's the crowd will love them. To him it's all about the music and that's what's most important to him. It's been now 12 years he has been in the goa scene and he never surrendered . He is very truthful to his roots and we think he will never change. He has no interest to become 'big' because we all know and he knows and seen how many artists went downhill when such thing happens. Many things do change and the music completely dies of. Filipe is very intelligent in that way and we are happy and we hope he will continue to bring new Goa music and keep doing what mostly nearly anybody does today. Being humble , keeping the spirit and most important the music we loved back in the days alive. He knows there's nearly nothing in goa music that will leave you 'wow'. Well at least to him. He thinks that putting 1.000 layers at the same time will not do any use either without even mentioning 'super kick breaks' and psy~trance and goa artistical 'kickass' egocentrical behaviours. There's more in Goa to him than than basically 'chainsawing' people's brains and the 'look at me i'm a rockstar' and stuff like that. He's no interest in it whatsoever. In our opinion this is good music and he certainly enjoyed making this album and listening to these songs. We love the Bonsai song and he knows that if this is played in a party somewhere people will love it. Thank you for your review Trance2MoveU and regarding physical copies we apologise but there won't be any. But we advise to collectors to download in wav file and store them or record them in a CD-r. Nowadays we can find harddrives that hold huge amounts of data of huge Terabyte volumes if not more. Sure it won't be hard to store Filipe's collection somewhere around.

We also want people to understand and realize we are not flooding releases. Let's not forget that Filipe has been making goa music since around 2003/2004 so this is a massive collection plus he also produced and produces music in other genres. Thank you.

No problem Anu. We will try and sort that release this week.We will add Goa Gate the remastered version aswel. Apart from that there are still a few unreleased songs and we have to organize things. As for Amithaba Buddha that's all we will be releasing and the ones he put in eps.We won't be releasing anything else because we also don't want any problems with Phototropic Records where he released some albums such as Myself in the Mirror and the Pandemonium ones and because there were contracts involved we apologise we cannot re-issue those. If people are looking out for such albums we advise contacting Phototropic or trying to buy them in discogs which can be expensive. As for Goa Gate and Angels Trumpets it will be ok.See you soon.

No worries buddy.We will probably still have to add some remaining unreleased songs and amithaba buddha angels trumpets if some people are interested.

Hi Fungi. https://gooddancerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/hiragana

We will see what we can do

Hello dear friends We want to make a new announcement because our little label will have some small changes but nothing really major We will add the 'space synth' albums filipe has done . It's just basically retro 80's space music that is very well known in the 'demoscene' and many people might known it as 'tracker music' or 'commodore amiga' stuff and some people here might enjoy it or not but we will add it anyways because Filipe likes to produce this kind of music once in a while because it's more downtempo and more musical , different chords and so on. He likes to alternate in between Goa and space synth music and some chill-out (downtempo) but he's always loved the 4/4 music than ambient/downtempo. We don't want to confuse anybody with our releases , so we want everyone to know we will have some 'space synth' music and goa~trance aswel . We hope our music will continue to be of your liking and not bring any confusion . Thank you all.

You are welcome. It's good to see people happy with his music There was another song from that old compilation he had but he decided to put in the chynacid album instead. It was mandir - indu i think but as it was just an old acid goa song so he just decided to put in chynacid album and you can find it as 'book of changes'.

Yeah that was released many years ago by acid chemical plant in bio hazard xplorationz compilation. Trance2MoveU reviewed it we think and he also loved it. It is really good track It was a compilation mostly with acid 303 instruments. Filipe doesnt have them anymore but that one survived so we released it among some extra stuff he had.There's another downtempo he did , look for Sphere of Counsciousness.

Hi Anu. Welcome. Glad that you have found us. You will find in our first releases most of Filipe's best ofs including most of the songs released in submoon and such. You can find a few new songs in them compilations so we suggest just have a wee look and see what you have listened before and what you haven't. The last release we just did is the one with brand new songs but there are compilations with a few new songs with aliases such as Athenaia and Ba'al. As for buying it's not a problem buy it when you feel like it. Enjoy the music!
