if u r someone who has Goa in ur soul then Khetzal is very moving...giving those bursts of enlightenment while listening....and the more u give it a spin it just raises u higher n higher....this is a definite "must have" beautiful work from a brilliant artiste whether ur high or not this music gets u there...travel without moving...seeing psychedelic without hallucinating and to that someone hu wants to lower his standards...don't do that....appreciation of art and beauty is an acquired taste....meaning u haven't tasted enuff to appreciate

First off i think there has been unwanted negative energy build up for no apparent reason comin back 2 the music...You can never compare two artists no matter even if the sound similar coz the creative output at some point will vary....this is the case between filteria and Khetzal...besides Stars most of the Filteria stuff is gr8 but the style varies from Khetzal...petes here sez that Filteria sounds more aggressive Goa and Khetzal is more beautiful melodic but at the same time boiling hot bubbling GOA...I go completely with Khetzals form of sound....both are making GOA...but their forms are so different....the more you listen to corolle you start to see the beauty and harmonics he has planted while making this album...more mystical/hypnotic Indian influences are seen...the ride of the music are like waves of the ocean...comes and goes....and then at times it builds up a storm....so much of variety in one album all packed meticulously with the right strain of Goa melodies...then there is also a 160bpm track!!!! ...thats not being experimental but actually capturing the tempo at which Goa flies ...can't stop even if u want to....the music is even more beautiful than the CD cover...and if u r on a dozen of dark storm mushies damn! everything lights up.....the acid reeks from all the tracks ...exquisite stuff~ spiritually expanding....wickedly gorgeous! makes u reconnect back with nature, your breathing, the sun, the winds ur breath! I don't wanna ruin his effort by comparing to some other artist and neither would i wanna compare to some of the 96-98 stuff....the GOA power is fully there...waiting for you to explore it...waiting for you to enjoy it....and believe me the more u listen to this album the most evolved you feel....the more higher you get and then there is no coming down~

Jon Cocco:::you sound very grown up and mature>>> Freak! its guys like u who give the Goa state of mind / attitude a bad name...coz u never knew wat Goa was all abt anyway.... and btw when i finish the rest of the songs I will put my review here!!!! else let the mod gods take it up so u mean to say i've written something from the discovery channel...man wat i have written is a 'review'...the way it is...the way Corolle makes me feel...if u r looking for some cheap credit on review writing go ahead....i ain't stopping u...and like u said its all abt the music and what it makes u feel...enjoy it Cocco...even if its hard to digest!

looks like its gonna b kitty party

well that was my 2 cents....y don't u make it a dollar

Listening Winds : Track starts of with tasty forest sounds...birds twittering...the sun playing tricks with clouds... trying to set free... freeing the mind...calm upper track with floaty synth laced sounds:::2'28" brief pause with the forest emerging again...varied tapestry merging into the subconscious...hints of eastern grooves flying floating:::5'04" the sounds melts into the horizon with some spectacular synth once again bringing out the rainbows ending blissfully into the jungle. 2. Anamatha (Remix) : Intense powers of the chakras accumulating...track starts of beautifully with an Indian female vocal sample...tablas....classic Goa bubbling... hypnotic sound starts the ride at 2'26" twisted acid sitar trails...psychedelic textures which we have been thirsting for so long...the eastern ambience is hard to miss...the female vocal sampling itself here n there...melodic but not in a cheesy way...just the perfect groove to set the gear to powerdrive....4'33" brings out the melody in an indistinct manner pouring sweet nectar into the eyes...ears n mind....the sample still playing somewhere ...building up energy....rising...ready...6'30" you can feel the exhilirating influence of the cosmic power...leaving you energized...state of peaceful bliss.... 3. Bells of Saranath : After attaining enlightenment at Bodh Gaya the Buddha went to Sarnath; and it was here that he preached his first discourse in the deer park to set in motion the 'Wheel of the Dharma'. It is one of the most holy sites as in this place the stream of the Buddha's teaching first flowed. The whirling vortex of goa melodies floating inthe air....0'53" the sky tears open with the drums...forgotten goa kicks n licks...the mantra begins...driving you further n further into trance...hypnotic currents of electricity...3'31" the baba unfolds the sacred prayer and serious flying with cosmic fragments into another dimension is about to set-off ....4'07" weaving the delicate fabrics of acid into the atmosphere...shadows of spirits racing in the hidden depths of the sky...catching a wisp of psychedelic! 4. Narayana : Narayana, in Hinduism, is the purification of the creative of Lord Vishnu associated, therefore, with the sun. It is Narayana, as solar energy moving upon the face of the waters, which produces creation. At the end of this cycle of this particular universe, Narayana/Vishnu rests on the coiled form of Sesa-naga, the endless serpent, and when, in due course, he awakes again, the creative process is renewed. And the track starts just at that .....fiery fierce powerful solar energy building up dust in the sacred dancefloor...0'58" the superior solar flares skimming ur aura to brighten up the soul...1'27" harmonic strains of a strange synth sitar acidified and melting with the skyline...the melody haunting and daunting at the same time....a weird animal coos at 2'22" bringing the fiery power of the bass to be churned against the hynotic melody which surfaces....3'42" brings on the melodic swirl captivating the youthful energy of the sun....4'20" leaves you pondering over the cosmic powers of existence....like a ninja slicing the air the sounds chops you at 5'08" attaining supreme control over the senses....indeed you have merged with the Sun God and all else that is divine~ 5. Ganesha Pramana : The son of Shiva and Parvati, Ganesha has an elephantine countenance with a curved trunk and big ears, and a huge pot-bellied body of a human being. He is the Lord of success and destroyer of evils and obstacles. He is also worshipped as the god of education, knowledge, wisdom and wealth. 1'05 the sacred sound of the elephant god wakes you up from the acidic myst speeding with doses of color and magic....ultraviolet visions of insight....lemurian beings communicating....and the most haunting violin string reminds you of the complexities of nature..... 2'37" flies u higher n higher like a kite....only that there is no one controlling this flight...you are the rider, the navigator...emerging out from various portals of light...realizing that you are needed in other parallel dimesions....4'11" mystical worship of the elephant God and his powerful natural being is reflected as spores of light start shooting outta ur third eye...where at 4'55" you feel him all the way in your veins and glistening with sweet sweat of the pacy racy psychedelic sounds....yes this one rises bringing in the strong tornado of lysergia...transporting you into hyperspace...never letting you go...and what BPM is that....whoah! 6. Indian Attic : A mystical initiation into the tradition of Goa...melodies spin in chaotic order of harmony...the violin soothes away the peaks of jagged edges in the sky....a psykedelic haunting lead manifests itself raising the energy...3'30" climate changes giving way to a change that is inevitable....haunting and taunting ur insides...familiar tablas invoking ancients gods and goddesses, rooting yourself to the dance floor becoming unified in space...5'24" brings in the awesome force of the Gods lifting you through the energy channels climbing, flying, soaring, spaceborne, the melodic hypnotizing acid filled sounds putting u into a complete controlled trance consciousness...this is one non stop ride into the cosmos... 7. Djaningar : A galloping horse ?! or was it just a hallucination...squidgy polished sounds rubbing against each other...1'20" the splendid delicious acid lines and drums scrunch and munch through the air....2'07" a melody so mesmerizing...rapturous emotions...tunneling of cross platform whirlpools....3'.00" different layers of color trail around each other....alien languages spoken with a babylonian twist.....unstoppable feelings of movement....obscure incomprehensible 5'11" resonance of aliens...6'23" uplifting refreshing cool fresh unpolluted landscapes....genial genius of crystal sounds....this track demonstrates the purity of Goa harmony....and the horse gallops by~ 8. Nyiragongo : Nyiragongo is associated with the East African Rift and is part of the Virunga Volcanic Chain. It is in the Congo, not far from the border with Rwanda. Nyiragongo is in Virunga National Park and is of Africa's most active volcanoes. And as it is with the volcanoes the bubbling of the lava can be heard right from the start. Hidden sounds from the center of the earth....Tight sounds holding the fabric of psychedelic tribal drum textures like an adhesive....1'37" brings in the phased sound of an african heritage...tribalism and shamanism synergize...3'40" turns up the power of the tribal warcraft....strong power unleashed into ur soul....beautiful harmonic resonances of shadows on the shifting plains....wild spirits of Africa....amalgamating to form an untainted ball of force...no way to miss ur primal tribal nature...arousing the cry of the god Oduduwa...amazing track! 9. Avasari : The feeling of perpetual need of expanding your horizon is the staple on this track and as much as technology has taken us further into progress u cant help but notice that we are still in our primordial form of being and rather than fight to change we need to just let go and relax into the ebb of our cosmic psyche..water flowing...releasing the strains of the tedium...3'30" a beautiful flanger brings on the Goddess of ur soul urging you to take the next step into the higher consciousness of evolution. The goddess unfolds the true meaning of being....Very beautiful ambient track!! Really hard to choose....and so many favorites Fav Tracks: 3/4/6/7/8/9 Glad I bought this CD....and this is such a relief to my sore ears....sore from hearing the patented repetitive tiring full-on sounds....Khetzal has released something like a breath of fresh air each track filled with energy and hope that is Goa....melodic pure luscious GOA...lotsa people say this is a remake of the oldies injected with the new...not quite....rather this is a statement of what Goa music is all about...the beauty... the warped but refined complexity.... the textures.... the drive to evolve is all featured in this incredibly twin turbo-charged album...shiniest of sounds and the most liquid melodies around! reminds me of sweeeeet Arambol back in 97 === peace n love... +++++

definitely the full on BS!@# the death of true hypnotic music...the music which made u move without traveling....which made u fly without drugging urself altho that helps basically psytrance dropped off the real hypnotic part of it....and the melodies which used 2 take u high n low....giving u a sense to wonder...the mystery of life itself!?@ shaman or a druid i don't kno.....but bak in 94-97 the music just was alien technology music still respect 2 all artists just that pls stop making bullshit n help our feeble minds with some serious juice
