Review:

 

Hmm.. nitzhonot isn't my cup o tea really, but this guy is pretty much

different from the rest of those artists.. this is fast, pumping and

pretty rough, not that easy like nitzhonot usually is. The BPM is really

fast here and that's nice. Also nice melodies.. so this is overall a good

release.. it's a bit darker than his first album "beast from the east" and

that's good he's evolved, but both albums are good in their own way. Most

tracks are hard and stompy with nice beats. Favorites are 2,3,4,5 and 6..

btw, that last song has a weird name, cause it is NOT peaceful like in my

vocabulary.. just as fast and hard as the rest of the tracks. Maybe it's got

its name from the samples (same samples as in "Release Me" by

Infected Mushroom.. but these artists are WAY different to each other).

Rating: 6.5/10.

CYAN is the leader group in this specific kind of music. this album is very

very good and it's an example of good morning/melodic music. get it!

Cyan is among others, such as Cherouvim, the pioneers in a new form of Trance.

The only thing i have to say is Keep on the good work and bring us great

tracks like Alien or Macedonia...Rating:9/10

This is very, very, melodic trance. It's not really psychedelic, but like was

mentioned above, is good morning music. Nothing else like it that I have

heard -- you can definately interperet this as cheese, but that's what Cyan

seemed to go for. It's good cheese. I like it, but on a different level than

most of my albums. It doesn't go "deep" enough for me, but it's still unique

and pretty interesting to listen to.

"Do you think there's people on other planets?"

 

"I don't know Sparks. But I'd guess I'd say...if it is just us...it seems like an awful waste of space."

 

 

*doof doof doof*

 

Did you hear something?

 

*doof doof doof*

 

What the f*ck was that? Did you fart?

 

*DOOF DOOF DOOF*

 

It's baaaaaaaack!

 

Cyan is Mike Dee and Nikos Chrisoulakis and they were one of the projects who took Nitzhonot out of the cheese factory and created something more formidable that Goa heads like me can chew on. It still has that Nitzho sound that artists like Agneton and Goalien produce today with high speed frenetic melodies along with the darker vibe. Kinda like a Terminator 2 thing where the machines will kill you if you let them, but don't be too scared because a kid is the star of the movie and Hollywood doesn't kill kids.

 

It thumps to be sure with some driving beats and melodies so even if you're not a fan of nitzho you could still find some joy in this. And that's where I find myself. Sometimes I love the way they combine the two genres and other times that lead annoys me and I have to shut it off. There are portions where it gets a little too hmmm....upliftey. Plenty of changes of direction, but also some cornball moments.

 

I bet Elias loves it.
