I think this is a killer! Real nice! Well done Dado! Favorite trax: 1,5&6 But they are all great in there ways! (Overall: 9/10) Peace!

Guest Goachick Posted August 9, 2002 Share Posted August 9, 2002 New refreshing psy sounds with nice vibrating melodies ...first track (by far my fav) is tribal sounding with some killer stomper lines... I think over all the best way to describe most of this album is....it's like what psytrance house music would sound like if there was such a genre.... (no fluffy deedrah stuff here though) the later part of the cd transitions into a darker sort of experience. Which helps with the slowness of some of the earlier track....definitley some tunes worth busting out with to get some people moving.... 7/10 for the tracks and there overall content 5/10 for the overall production ....my one complaint.... Production seems a little muddy when compared/mixed into other tracks which is a little baffling because it comes from such a great producer, maybe this one went up the nose-possibley to please a crowd of the same???...opps did I say that outloud?

Guest arantes420[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 a very experimental album.... good vibration in all trax... but in few trax I felt a bit of repetitive a previsible sounds... but in the context the abum is very good! Special listen to Africa the best one... ...7/9! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Goagabba Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 The first four tracks are good kinda progressive, and in the expected Synthetic style. I cannot find any fault in these tracks. Number 5 is an excellent chill track, but not very long. Not too keen on 6 & 7, too experimental/breakbeat/dnb, but that's just personal taste. The Time Bandits is my favourite song on this album. Brilliant bass and sounds. It's kinda tech trance, but with great percussion, and some good melodies here and there. Songs 9 & 10 are good, but nothing new here, and 11 & 12 are good songs to end off this diverse album. All in all, a good album, worth your money. Excellent for home listening due to all the different styles of music here and there. Synthetic is the harder and more experimental side of Deedrah. Don't expect 100% pure/Metal Gear here, but still Synthetic IMO 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest templar[at]psytrance[dot]pl Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Well, I must add mu 2 cents. After listening to this alb' I have the feeling I miss something... Dunno... well, the tracks are built well, but I have the feeling that Dado couldn't make up his mind whether to do a psytrance or a downtempo album - the whole thing is a mixture of different styles. Glad to here some ambiental stuff from Synthetic (he should do it more often than that...). Still I'm very happy that it didn't turn out to be another boring, crappy (sorry for that, but I had to;]) and unintelligent "Metal Gear / Cosmos 99" kinda stuff, and I ended up with a nice portion of music from Synthetic. Ok, about the tracks: 1. Africa - clear production, good soundscapes at the beggining, all rounded up into a real massacre in an african drummy mood - this one should really move the crowd wild on the dancefloor. Second track - Gotcha - a killer track, starts from a chilly atmospere and bangs with some Twisted-flavoured stuff. Really nice indeed, more tracks like that one please! 3rd and 4th track - again some dancefloor high pitched and a bit pomping material.... "Seeing Out The Angel" - when I first heard that piano I was astonished. I must admit that this is one of the best tunes from Synthetic so far. "Reprezent", "Absynthetic","The Time Bandits(VITD Edit)" - back to the dancefloor again, what else to say. "Patch" - no comment on that, just don't like it, that's all. "Pulp" - hmmm, again a bit of experimenting behind those synth' and stuff, but I think putting this on the album was a bit of mistake. And finally "Duplo" - what a fantastic (rather downtempo) track. Synthetic generates a brilliant atmosphere here. And I must say that some of the samples here remind me of a classic by Juno Reactor - High Energy Protons (choires to be exact...). "Final Fantasy" - the name of the last track says it all... My favourites here must be "Seeing Out The Angel" , "Duplo" and "Gotcha (oh my God, what a crazy track...)", but there is a lot more of good stuff on this CD. Well, I expected sth' a bit more different, yet this is a solid album with potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RaverGirl Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 This c.d is simply genius! I?ve been looking for something like that. At times progressive, at times full on (good full on). Very interesting and diverse sounds. Can?t stop listening to it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seraph Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Weird and strange psychedelic album...Frederick surprises non stop...I actually mostly liked him in Transwave project and he should stayed in that way cause he is experimenting too much...His best skills are in the end melodies but this album is pretty good. Best on album : GOTCHA, ICY, SEEING OUT AN ANGEL, ABSYNTHETIC ( ! ), PULP....7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
