moni Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Yes people. Let's have a small battle. Why not. We have two good progressive trance new releases. Phony Orphants - It'Cetra and Ticon - Zero Six After. Both are good, both have been hyped, both have not failed to please us. Which one do you like better? This poll comes as an interest in your personal taste. So yes, it's a matter of personal taste. Nothing more. I'm inviting you to go ahead, vote and discuss if you please.

Guest Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Let me start with that I voted Phony Orphants. Of course this is my personal taste, and I can see that a lot of people will vote Ticon. Now, why did I vote PO? Well, simply for the fact that they really amazed me with their latest album. The sound is very good, the tracks have a lot of variation, and they bring out the best of many genres. Why did I (A major Ticon Fan) not vote for Ticon? Well, because the new album didnt really impress me that much. Now, from a producing standpoint, its very good, near to perfect. But the tracks, and the variation, is very... The same. I guess I expected it to beat Aero, and thats probably where it failed, because Aero is one hell of a hard album to beat. Now, I like the new Ticon very much, but it lacks something.... Maybe the funk of Ticon?! I dont know, I will listen some more to it. But I stand fast, PO is in MY opinion the better album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sherlockalien Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 cant decide.. neither of them is perfect, but both of them have some excellent tracks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krelmatrix Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Ticon The Orphants album is good, but it doesn't have that "Wow" factor for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basilisk Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I like both of them... a lot. They compliment one another very well. I voted for both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naiman Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Ticon I must say that i have not listened nearly as much to the Phony Elephants as Ticon's new album. Maybe it wil grow on me when i listen to it more.. but at this time Ticon beats the Phony Elephants hands down. Also i have freaked out on Mellers albums, something is seriously wrong with me. I really didn't care that much for progressive before. But something snapped in me some days ago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amphiton Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I voted Ticon... expected more from them though. I can't understand PO At first I even hated it. Maybe every track is so different that you can't grasp the main concept? Have to do few more listens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tox Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 don't even have the PO-cd New albums Ticon & Element have been battling for "absolute residency" on my hi-fi. So update your poll with Element (wich gets better every time you hear it) or accept my vote for Ticon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moni Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 Tox don't mess with my poll kidding. i'll check Element out. though i've been hearing too much prog lately, i'm afraid i'm gonna get sick of it soon ... right now i'm also singing Seelenluft - Manilla .. "And i started to dance .. without wearing no seat belts .. and i started to dance .. without wearing no safety vest.." prog everywhere!

GaySatanicHippie Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I agree with Basilisk, they compliment each other well, Ticon is more fun and psychedelic, PO is more edgy and dirtier, i voted undecided, but I think Im tending more towards Ticon, but I dont know yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acido Domingo Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I don't know either album yet, but if I had to decide which to get I'd go for Ticon. Last one I got was "Rewind" and I liked it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I thought that I would prefer Phony Orphants, but I found myself choosing Ticon even though some of his tracks are a bit iffy... I also did a back to back comparison between Phony Orphants and Beat Bizarre's latest release, and I ended up thinking the latter was also superior.

sherlockalien Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 funny how lots of ppl talk bout beat bizarre recently.. but I cant seem to like their stuff, specially the later ones... I guess I dont like the ´psy´ influences, if you know what I mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heva Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Only just got my grubby mittens on the new Ticon album....I put one track on and my initial thought was 'mmmm different'. I need to give the whole album a good listening to. Give me a few days, then I'll try and make a decision. But you must understand that I am somewhat challenged in the decision-making department.

Acido Domingo Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Acido, you purely have to listen to Aero.Hm, Aero...now that you mention it, I think I heard some of this one.

moni Posted November 22, 2005 Author Share Posted November 22, 2005 ok, now i am ready to vote. yep, Ticon is better. it's The Analogue H track that convinced me. outstanding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I don't think they can be compared. Ticon's music has a much better flow than Phony Orphants, and a more danceable sound, but I think that Phony Orphants' sound is much more experimenting, and It´Cetra has some Zero Six After doesn't have and the opposit. I think it is hard to compare these two albums.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
