Guest sanpietro2000[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 V/A - 9 Pills Artist: Various Title: 9 Pills Label: Neurobiotic Date: 2001 Track listing: 01. 06'07" Authentik : Data Driven 02. 07'37" Eqked : Off The Record 03. 07'12" Droidlock : Candy Killer 04. 07'05" Paste : Progo 05. 07'11" Spiritual : Go Ahead 06. 08'07" Joti Sidhu : Juice 07. 06'23" Earthling : Dusty Hoffman 08. 07'24" Etnica : Hologram 09. 09'03" Bus : Detonater Review: This is my first review on this website, and I decided to write down one because I just noticed there is no review for the best compilation on the market at the moment. Everything is perfect for me here, the artwork is one of the best I remember from a long time, very funny and smart, the tracks featured on this compilation are some of the best in the various directions trance is taking today and the mastering is amazing, the "Phantom production" guys did a perfect work on this one (while the last Neurobiotic compilation "Experience" had very big problems in the mastering... Anyway, this is another story, nothing to do with that release, maybe 1000 times better). Authentik open this cd with their best track ever (no doubt, following their style featured on the album but this one is better than any other track from them), powerfull techno trance that will make the dancefloor explode, powerful basslines and impressive kick makes this track a must for every night set; then Eqked, who released somethign on Hadshot as well, bring us another night track, not my cup of tea, but someone will like it; Droidlock presents us a very nice track, quite progressive but powerful and with very nice rythms; Paste follow their unique progressive style...this time a little bit boring, but if you like them you will like this track as well for sure; Spiritual with Go Ahead bring us a full on track, quite similar to Joti Sidhu's style (but they have to work a lot to reach his quality!!!), anyway, a good track; Joti Sidhu with Juice is the second best track of the compilation, and one of his best tracks ever, following his usual style but more powerfull and storming psychdedelic sounds, maybe one of the best tracks ever on this style; Earthling - Dusty Hoffmann (only the title is enough to have this track!! Very nice!!!), as usual, is a little bit GMS oriented track, showing us the Ibiza trend of the moment; Etnica - Hologram is a very good track, after their unsuccessfull album, maybe they're going to make things better; last track is the third best track, Bus bring us one of his legendary morning tunes that will delight people on the dancefloor. Guys, if you haven't got it yet, run to your local shop and buy it (if you will find it!!!! Here it's sold out everywhere!), you will listen to it for a very long time. It's simply excelent!!!

bomble Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 I haven't heard this comp yet ... but I find the above review a little strange....as I interpret, Sanpietro, you did not like track 2 and you describe track 4 as boring - yet you opened with the comment 'Everything is perfect for me here' and end with 'simply excellent'. I would love to hear this, as it has obviously scrambled your mind delightfully !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sanpietro2000[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 Hi Bomble, I mean that if I have to calculate an average vote for this compilation would be something like 9/10 (whre for me 10/10 can be only Shpongle)...I never found a compilation featuring all 10/10 tracks...a very good one at the moment is Sub Science, but I don't like at all the droidsect and the total eclispe tracks there, but it's as well one of the best compilation on the market at the moment and I would suggest to everyone to buy it. If you ever found a compilation with all killer tracks (vote 10/10 to every one), let me know!!! And 9 pills has got a perfect mastering and a very nice artwork, and when you have to spend some money to buy a cd is nice also to see that people behind the label are also thinking about this stuff... Bom Shankara!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stormbringer Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 I usually don´t by comps but this one is so good that I´m about to make an exception. The Etnicatrack "Hologram" is really different... and really good too! Now the only problem is to find this record here in Sweden. I haven´t seen it yet.

Guest SchizoEffecteD Posted October 17, 2001 Share Posted October 17, 2001 Very, very nice compilations indeed. authentik has a killer track, the rest are just average good tracks! this compilation is more techno oriented, and for those psy techno/minimal lovers, this is a great one!!!

Setsuko Posted October 28, 2001 Share Posted October 28, 2001 Very nice compilation indeed... the cover artwork is also very excellent... I must say the soundquality is just perfect... 9/10 for the Authentik track (much better then any track on his latest album) and the Etnica track... 7,5/10 for the rest... good work by Neurobiotic Records Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest edoardo[at]neurobiotic[dot]com Posted November 1, 2001 Share Posted November 1, 2001 Hi guys! Thanx for the feedback on 9 Pills. We know the first release was not the best compilation ever, but we make a big effort to have it out, and we admit our lack of experience at that time. Anyway, from now on, we are putting everything we can inside the label, trying to give every release something more. Next compilation will be called "Fast forward" and will be out in december. Thanx for your trust and looking forward to meet all of you one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rogue Scholar Posted January 3, 2002 Share Posted January 3, 2002 Wow its cool to actually hear from the guys who made the comp! I really liked track two, nice covert bass-line. Other than that the whole album has a hard, minimal feel to it.Is that Etnica sample from "Tron" or something? I find I can listen to the comp walking around the city at night (Sydney), but never at home..is the next release going to be hard too, I wonder?
