RTP Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 Wow, I'm blown away! The thing is that: I saw Magnetrixx live a few months ago. Well, it was announced "Magnetrixx and Morganixx", to be precise. I heard a big load of awesome tracks there ... but I did not know them. They did not have this typical Magnetrixx style I knew from the past at all, so I thought it were Morganixx tracks ... and thus I concentrated my search on finding new Morganixx, because in the past I liked Morganixx better than Magnetrixx and I thought that such good tracks only can come from Morganixx. Just recently though I realized, that I was wrong - fortunately! It was because of the first track on the Goa Head 21 ... Magnetrixx - Probably, which is also the first track of the new album. And there it was, a track I recognized! And it was not this typical Magnetrixx style he had before (which I didn't even like that much) like on the earlier albums - in this track there was a lot more going on, it was a little faster and overall much more activity going on than in his earlier tracks which I found rather boring compared to this one! I LOVED Probably! So I finally came on the right track! And just minutes ago it came back to my mind and I checked on Saikosounds for samples - and woot, I recognize every second track of that album! Skaphander, Zipfel, Wired ... AWESOME! I LOVE IT .. Magnetrixx, whom I didn't care much about earlier apart from Tohuwabohu or Gluonball, clearly has developed to a really cool project! (And I wasn't even SO wrong by saying the elements come from the Morganixx side, because Morgana is the creative one who delivers the ideas for effects and melodies ) Now ... is there something similar out there?

flipie Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 You could check out the other Magnetrixx albums. I only liked this one, and only from track 4 (Zipfell) till the end which is kinda a lot IMO while this music is not normally my style. I think you may want to look into the German "minimal" scene as well. Its pretty big, and theres a few crossovers with psy and prog. For example: Day Din. I'm not really into this style though, so i can't help you much w/this. Quote
Basilisk Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 Yes, it's bloody good, and it's rare to find anything quite like this... BLT & Danny Makov's album Anything U Want comes to mind though. It's not the same style, but they're both brilliant in their own funky way. Quote
RTP Posted February 16, 2006 Author Posted February 16, 2006 You could check out the other Magnetrixx albums. 440681[/snapback] Mmh not really, I already know plenty of tracks of them and as I said above his past stuff is not even remotely as good as Wired! MORGANIXX is a BIT like it (because of the fact that I said above that Mogana works on more melodies in Magnetrixx project lately ... I even think they have merged completely and Morganixx project is on ice, but that's just a speculation...), but also only remotely ... still fans of Wired might want to check that out as melodies and elements come from the same creative person in this case Quote
Trolsk Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 One of the very best albums from last year, love it a lot. Excellent cover too. Quote
