Review:

 

I don't know much about astralasia...this "band" don't sound like ordinary

psy/goa band...it's more atmospheric...it's more like some ordinary

trance...but i like it..it isn't bad at all..it's relaxing music good for

evening listening...btw a lot of sampling is done on this album...i guess

that's why it sounds so unique...Grade: 6/10

I know well Astralasia. They are a great name of the 90's early psychedelic

scene in UK, along whit Eat Static and Banco-de-Gaia. This album is a

compilations of their first singles. The members come from a psychedelic rock

band called The Magic Mushroom Band and at the beginning they made a mixture

of progressive rock, folk, rave hardcore and ambient dance, and you could hear

their first experimentations in this album. Sul-E-Stomp is a masterpiece, one

of the best dance tracks in the history, the perfect fusion between folk and

dance. Hashishin is a flying track, a voyage to "A better place" (as the

lyrics says) and along whit Sul-E-Stomp made of Astralasia a true legend in

british clubs as Whirl-Y-Gig and festivals as WOMAD. This album also includes

others great tracks as Realise your Purpouse and Univeria Zekt (a cover of the

rare 70's progressive band Magma). I recommend it strongly
