Review:

 

I can't believe it !!! AWESOME !!!!!! This album contains MANY tribal sounds

and is fantastic !

I really love this style :-) I don't see any Bad Tracks here and have 4

favourites : Tracks 3,4,6 and particularly 5 !

Track 1 is chill-out, other Tracks are very psychedelic And melodic, but

that's NOT israeli style ! Melodies never go wrong And are very trippy, and

tribal sounds are sometimes strange, but don't ruin the Tracks at all :-)

I even think that's better in this way cause this album really gives you the

impression you're in a party in the jungle :-) You should listen to it in its

entirety, as a journey, to have more happiness !

BEWARE : that's a VERY original album, so listen to it before buying it (in

case of you don't like tribal sounds at all), but I really don't know how you

could think it's a bad release :-)

Rating : 8.5/10

Véry good album!!! There are 2 real dance-songs on it and the others songs are

more downtempo Tribal Trance... :o)) The best song in my opinion is nr. 5!!

Real fast rythm with many and fast 303 sounds..., but originally used... Other

awesome songs are nr 1 (rather Ambient), nr 6 (the second Dance-song with a

straaangge sample...) and nr. 9 (downtempo with a cool German text at the end

of the song...)!!

So if you like Tribal sounds this CD is a MUST!!! Bom Shankar

Where do I start? VERY VERY GOOD! As was said before, it's on the theme of

tribal goa. A lot of real indian shouting and jungle sounds. All mixed in very

intelligently. If this is not original, what is? This, gentlemen, is where you

can find true innovation with the weirdness that comes with Psy-Harmonics. As

anoebis so beautifully put it - the sound of paradise! Only one complaint, the

production could have been a little better - some samples sound a little askew

with the music. But it only serves to give these samples a more down-to-earth

feel, as if a real indian was singing! 9/10 Bom Shankar! - Raven

I like this style, it's fresh and dark in my opinion. With fresh I mean you

hear the sound of nature, tribal sounds are surrounding the listening area and

creating a massive atmosphere... .The dark side of the music makes you want

to go deeper and deeper inside the music towards the unknown. I like all the

tracks in their own kind of way cause of the unique sounds and samples the

tracks contain. Inside the Anaconda is a real 'killer'. It's no regular

goatrance, more german trance but it's worth listening ... 8/10

Hmmm, I really didn't like the album. I thought it was pretty weird sounding,

and I think it was a little too dark to combine tribal sounds into the mix. I

will say it's quite innovative though, not too repetative, but my interest

gets lost half way through the album. Worth a listen, but it will sit at the

bottom of my collection. 5.5/10

How could people say that there are only 2 dancable trakcs on it?? it's untrue.

There are 3 tracks that is not dancable "ani shinan", "natema" and "the

spirits arrive" (chill-out).

The rest of the album is really cool, is what I call real GOA (ethnic chants,

songs, natural sounds and tribal beats).

May some say it's not for dancefloor because of its uplifting beats in most

tracks. But in this album you can find killers like "inside the anaconda", "in

rachen des jaguars" and "shono der weltenbaun" and others dreamy goa. But all

the tracks have the tribal and mystical feelings.

Im from mexico, heard german trance (not a lot, but still like the style 'cos

is very friendly, to start with this contains a mix of tribal beats, a goa

feeling (speacially track 5 and 6), animal speaking in here which make a

jungle feeling, aboriginal chants, its not very uplifter but for morning or

home listening or trying something different this is for you.

aaaahhhh... nothing works better when I'm stuck in front of my computer than

morning trance!! And this one is my best pick together with Feuerhake!! Who

said germans only make harsh music? The only regret I have is that some

samples are just too loud!! I mean you're just sitting, enjoying the music and

suddenly you hear some monkey scream like crazy!! Maybe it's supposed to freak

you out while dancing on a beach in the morning while tripping, but for

home-listeining it's just annoying... So 8/10 from me... would've been more if

it weren't for the production...

i do not like this. first of all, except for track 5, the music is pretty

average. it would be a decent album at that point. but the "tribal sounds..."

are annoying! i like tribal music, i like tribal goa. but i don't like this.

why? the "mystical tribal sounds" just sound like samples of african and south

american people talking. they aren't talking about anything, just talking

about what they're going to have for breakfast or something. or that's what it

sounds like. it's just as "mystical" sounding as any other random speech

sample. and other than the samples it's not tribal sounding at all! just

techno. and the samples are way overused in my opinion. and it just ends on a

bad note with that long german sample at the end of the last track, which

might make sense if i knew german. anyway, except for track 5, i really can't

recommend this. 2/10

what do you think??? i am a bit lazy to make a track by track review...

generally i find this album very nice, melodic with several tribal sounds, not the most energetic or hard ever, but it is... nice relaxing goa... some tracks trippy too ;

GREAT album !

 

This is pure acid tribal trance at its best ! The atmosphere and sounds are so delicate and you feel like you are literally transported inside the trip itself.

 

This is one of those rare conceptual albums from the time when people still actually cared about music and concepts and where boundaries were broken ( 98 - 00 period )...:)

 

I like all songs but my favourite ones are : THE SPIRITS ARRIVE, CATHARSIS OF BODY AND SOUL, IM RACHEN DES JAGUARS, INSIDE THE ANACONDA, RETURN OF THE SOUL...

 

8/10

ah how times change... I remember that I LOVED this album back then... but now I couldn't care less, I actually find it VERY average, same goes for the first 2 Medicine Drum albums (and while we're at it, I found their 3rd one was a DISGRACE to psytrance)... ah well...
