Review:

 

Cheesy? No? Well...I think a little. This is kinda cool soft psytrance. Well

built melodies and good moringsounds. If you are in a somewhat cheesy mood

this is it. And I must say that the melodie in track #3 is very good! Maybe

they could have made the basslines darker. It gets better that way imo. Just

like in track #7. Anyway...this is wellstructed moringtrance.

Final Verdict: 6/10 if in the right mood 8/10

well, the tracks are between 130 and 135 bpm (except for the last one with

150). It is a bit fluffier than what I expected, definitely pure morning sound

but I doubt it could get me on my feet and make me dance at any time of the day

no outstanding track on it, 6/10

The album is full of nice melodies and noises in typical Zorba style but

because it's so slow it is not very danceable. At least not in a party... But

I like it a lot for home listening and if you into slower, melodic stuff you

really have to check it out.

Nice, slightly melodic psytrance for home listening... Some tracks reminds me

much of GMS, but they all have a slower beat and are less "stressed" then the

regular GMS tracks. A pretty nice album :) 7/10

I think it's not so cheezy; it is real trance for morning. Very nice album,

long-awaited from Bansi & Riktam. A lot of samples and the bassline is closely

to GMS, but slowly. Who said it is not for dance? So, I remember the first

time I listen Datora (track 10) in summer last year. It happened in the time

of sunrise, all of people around me wake up and became dancing like thousand

butterflies - it was unforgettable moment!

very very nice album!!! If you're not much into GMS (like me...) then don't

worry, this sounds more like what a new Yahel album should if he continued his

trend from "For the People/ Waves of Sound", than actual GMS. Well, except for

that average production and badly-chosen synth-sounds that sound like this

music was made by some 16-year old on an Amiga rather than by professional

artists on synths... But if you can get by that, then you're in for a treat!!

Very melodic anthem-like psy and Lord knows we haven't got any of that for a

few years now... All tracks are perfect for listening in a sunny day

(preferably after a goa party...), very dreamy, very warm. Last track (Datora)

is the best IMO, I heard it at a party a few months ago and it totally blew me

away!!! The kind of melody that stays in your head all morning, it kinda

reminded me of Hyperion - Sunflower and we all know what an excellent track

that was! 8/10 (only 8 because of the bad production)

BTW after a LOT of thinking it over, I finally realized that the beginning of

"No Copys" sounds VERY much like the beginning of Madonna - Papa Don't

Preach!!! he he he you can see why they called it "no copys"... those funny

psy artists :-D

Very pleasant and peaceful album ! I quiet liked it but it could have been done

slightly better...They made it with not such a good production and made it

more retro...But overall it isa pretty nice some melodic trance in these

times...best on album : IN TUNE, NO COPYS, ZORBARAG, HYPER ZORBA,

DATORA....7.5/10

Unfortunately we can't... Its hard to get an autograph of a person that is not on earth any longer :( 

Oh no, I didn't know the artist was already dead. Man, that's so sad, such a gem that he created.
