Review:

 

Awesome!. This is what psytrance is all about and this is simply a

monster-compilation from the good old days. The CD kicks of with a very cool

track from Masaray. "Going To That Level Of Trance." Fantastic track from

the album Cosmic Trancer with a nice melody. Second up is Slinky Wizard with

the cool track Supernatural. "They Have Established Contact With The Red

Planet.". Very good track with loads of samples and an cool, spacey

atmosphere. Next up is Technossomy with a track that starts slowly but soon

develops into a stomping killer! Brilliant track. Then we have Green Nuns

with a truly atomic track! :o) An extremely fast, full-on, co0Oo0OoO0L track

with a brilliant melody and nice ending. Finally there's Sheyba who delivers

a slower but very melodic track, with a nice bass-line pumping beneath the

surface. Also an amazing track. All in all this compilation is a KILLER! No

doubt, this is the shit and offers very-high quality psychedelic trance at

its best. If you stumble upon this compilation do not hesitate to buy it and

get a load of the very best of the oldies but goodies. Rating 9,1/10 Bom

shankar!

Slinky Wizard, Technossomy, GNotR, how could this compilation be anything but fantastic.

Masaray and Sheyba complete the compilation nicely but it's definitely a must for any fans of those three artists are they are, for me, among the best tracks they produced.

A fitting tribute.

I don't have a lot to add, but I will also agree that this is a keeper. Sure it's only 5 tracks, but they are deep, spiraling pieces of goa trance. You've heard them before, but it's nice to have them in one place. Swirling melodies, bubbling sounds...everything you need to take you to that perfect level of trance.

RIP Adam Boyd.

 

The story is (Dunno if it has been officially spoken about).

He fell off the cliffs at James Monroe's stag weekend at the rumps in Cornwall.

He had lost one of his shoe. It was an impossible climb that he would have realised too late, at the point of no return and he fell a great distance

down onto rocks with the tide rising and coast guard who retreived his body by helicopter and boat.

 

Adam was an australian surfer, used to climbing cliffs but this was impossible to climb, his judgement was bad from alcohol and drugs.

 

Sad story :unsure:

Oh my God. What an absolutely horrible story. Is this true? How long ago. What a shame to lose another artist to drugs and alcohol.

I know this for a fact. He who told me.... sat with Adam just before he went away, also had to run for miles to get to a phone

to call the cost guard.

 

also...

 

he was sat peacefully, then we went around the cliff out of sight of him, drinking, i was the driver, and trying to keep the stag party schedule, with the others wasted, when i managed to get everyone moving back he was gone, his socks were placed in such a way that i believe he removed them to climb down to retrieve one of his shoes that he may have kicked off and over the cliffs by accident.

 

True story, sad story!

One of my most prized vinyls

 

To the Rhino in the Sky

 

He is _THE_ Flying Rhino and the namesake of the entire label

I never knew him but I know him well through the legacy he helped birth
