Guest Mesiaz Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 People always seem to compare this label to their more famous brother, 3D Vision, which is a perfectly relevent comparison. I've listened intensively to their two compilations the last few days, and if I had to characterize the difference between the two labels with one word it would be "imagination". The stuff from the two labels is clearly in the same style, but Moon Spirit stuff seem more variated, which I would characterize as more imagination. Sub Science vs. Full Moon Paradise: Maybe not a fair comparison, as Full Moon Paradise is widely mentioned as one of the best compilations ever, and Sub Science isn't the best compilation from 3D Vision. But it's the comparison that reflects the difference between the labels the best I think. Where Sub Science starts out fast with an Absolum track, and generally continues in the same style the whole way, Full Moon Paradise starts out with a slow track that is a brilliant opener, and gradually build until we hit the climax with Wizzy Noise and GMS, and then the real difference between the labels is shown imo. The style now turns towards dark minimalism...no, it doesn't turn towards it, it IS dark minimalistic trance! And it's not like this new style all of a sudden kicks in, as Jaïa's track is a sort of "intro" to Walhalla's track. We end with an ambient track, where we on Sub Science end with "just" a slow track, and I don't think we have ever heard an ambient track on a compilation from 3D Vision? Hopefully their future ambient compilation will show us what they can do in that aspect. Main point is: Full Moon Paradise is build like a dj set from evening 'till night 'till morning, Sub Science is build on some science team (i think), which isn't especially obvious or convincing, and this is actually the case for all 3D Vision compilations. The Moon Spirit compilations is more creative. Full Moon Paradise vs. Lunar Civilization: Not much to say here. I characterized Full Moon Paradise above, no need to repeat it. Lunar Civilization is not so heavily based on a theme, in some ways it sounds like a 3D V compilation, and in some ways it doesn't. It starts out fast and ends fast like 3D V stuff does, but the tracks aren't so much alike as on similar compilations, they are more experimental, what I characterize as more imagination. Boy, this turned out long, but there you have it My general opinion about these two labels. Your thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mesiaz Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 And btw, reason why I make this comparison is because it's so often done, and because many of the people behind the labels are similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mesiaz Posted March 27, 2002 Share Posted March 27, 2002 Correction: Lunar Civilization starts fast, but doesn't end fast as I wrote. Sorry about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest beuh-air Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 i think subscience is the worst 3D compil'.... if you take every 3d comp before , there is always a "concept" around the comp ex: - program change (most trax are nomad -talamsca) -download (most trax are gms - christof -wizzy noise) -ultra high frequ. & psychotropic had to set the 3d sound in the trance scene but... subscience is just a compilation of good trax and listenable trax... i don't like subscienc... full moon paradise is 10000 times better than subscience.. but check the 2 next ones ("inside" and a chillout one) , you can already check the samples on psyshop peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
