JonCrow Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 Bluetech is the one that stands out the most for me at present. I've tried a few times to give it a chance but it hasn't clicked yet. I'll still probably purchase the first 2 albums in the near future and play them every now and again and see if anything changes in my mind. It's great to keep one's perspective fairly open. If I don't enjoy something right away it's fun to try and listen to it in a different way on the next play, or at another time of day, or focusing on different elements of the track/album to hopefully hear what the artist is trying to say. Jon Received Elementary/Materia about 2 weeks ago. Listened to Elementary Particles for the first time properly 2 days ago and it's fucking lovely. Balanced smooth flow and nicely varied. In fact it got half way through a second listen without me even noticing, I just let it keep going again. :drama: Not listened to Prima Materia yet but just ordered Sines today! Almost purchased Divine Invasion as well but I'm doing my best to curb insane spending. Quote
abasio Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Rreally-? I feel quit the opisate about Shulman, while I absolutely love and adore his two first albums, I found the follow-up 'Random Thoughts' to be utter beh. I fell so out of love with it that I didn't even bother to check out his newest contribution, 'Endless Rhythms Of The Beatless Heart'. Maybe my loss, maybe that one would be more to my liking since the 'Random Thoughts' album wasnt a pure concept album like the first two. Again, the first two albums; 'Soundscapes And Modern Tales' and 'In Search Of A Meaningful Moment' wubbed me hugetime:)I'd recommend Endless Rhythms Of The Beatless Heart, it's really where Shulman came alive IMO Review Quote
Goa Bill Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 I'd put X-Dream as well. Hugely overrated. Thought their latest 12" is da bomb. Most of the Full-on nowadays makes me wonder whether i'm in the right scene. Most of the Israeli output is same tune over again. Alien Project, Dynamic, and pretty much everything that is being released on Tip. World and Spun. All the tech-trance mafia is overrated, and that includes: MidiMiliz, Delta and stuff like that. They were cool some years back ago but now it's just noise. And Tristan also. Nothing personal but i can't find a tune by him that i actually like. Wow, I had no taste in music back then Quote
Malevol3nt Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 What about artists we like but most people dislike? I like Shakta's music, even tho most people don't seem to like his stuff - at least that's the impression I got. But I find his music cool. Particulary the newer stuff like Feed the flame, because that was one of the first albums I heard of him. Maybe it's not exactly psy, but it's psylicious to me. Hehe. Quote

I like Shakta Silicon Trip is also an excellent album! Quote
Malevol3nt Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 And of course, the Deedrah remix of Lepton Head will always remain one of my favourites. The original - not so much. Anyway, I have nothing to contribute with to the topic. Perhaps.. Skazi? But who likes him anyway.. Quote

Except his latest albums, which suck of course. Quote
Time_Trap Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Wow, I had no taste in music back then just realised you are FP =D Quote
jivamukti Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Logic Bomb's first two albums. They have way too many cheesy vocal samples. OTT. He has superb production values but most of his music is too dubby for me. Quote

He has superb production values but most of his music is too dubby for me. jiva, try Shower of Sparks, Queen of All Everything and Smoked Glass and Chrome. I still haven't gotten into Bluetech or Shulman - their stuff is OK, but I think there's better around. Perhaps I should give them more of a chance. Quote

Laserflip Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Ott made a fantastic Psytrance track some years ago. Would be very nice to hear more from him as Hikikomori: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BY494VZLWGU Quote
HallowHim Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 i have a lot....especialy... Infected Mushroom X-dream Tiesto and all goa trance artists... Quote
jivamukti Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 jiva, try Shower of Sparks, Queen of All Everything and Smoked Glass and Chrome. Actually I do like Shower of Sparks, Smoked Glass and Chrome and From Trunch to Stormness. all goa trance artists... Quote
ouroboros Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 for me the top ones i dont like that most people do are: infected mushroom hallucinogen astral projection can i get some wine with that cheese? Quote
abasio Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 for me the top ones i dont like that most people do are: infected mushroom hallucinogen astral projection can i get some wine with that cheese? I do like wine and cheese! I like those artists, but they are cheesy. My main gripe with Hallucinogen is that most others don't see the cheese fest there.... Quote
Spirit Complex Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Shpongle Wombatmusic Kaya Project Dymons Easily Embarrassed ... and a million other psy chill artists. Quote
Rotwang Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Shpongle Wombatmusic Kaya Project Dymons Easily Embarrassed ... and a million other psy chill artists. Out of interest, what do you think of Koxbox? Quote
Spirit Complex Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Is this some kind of trick? I already posted in the thread about Koxbox that I can enjoy them on a small scale, but they are not my favorites by a long shot. Quote

Spirit Complex Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 bwhale didn't like them either I've suddenly changed my opinion, Koxbox are the best! Quote
WJPorter Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Safi Connection G.M.S. - possibly even more than Skazi. Sesto Sento - They simply piss me off. Nomad Polaris Dino Psaras - I seriously fail to see it, hear it, etc. To me, the most overrated name in the psytrance catalog. Needless to say what I think of Krome Angels. Quote
Padmapani Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 G.M.S. - possibly even more than Skazi. absolutely. once i hear one of their tracks for the fifth time, i'm bored with it. i've never heard music with less replay value. and their liveact was even more commercial and much cheesier than astrix.
