Guest Syre Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 Zerotonine - Cygnus Loops Artist: Zerotonine Title: Cygnus Loops Label: Global Trance Network Date: 2001 Track listing: 01. Prokyon 02. Nomad 03. Nostromo 04. Titanium Cluster 05. Moneypenny 06. Docile And Controlled 07. Bushido 08. Medusa's Breath Review: Pumping minimal psychedelic trance, in the very best style! Lots of percussion, really wicked spacy sounds in all tracks. You have to hear the album a few times, before it grows on you, but Zerotonine has really developed their sound into a much more complex depth and with beautiful minimal baselines, it will amaze you if you really listen carefully. Try taking the whole album for a trip, it's very nice and very psychedelic. I recommend it to everyone, except people who love the old goa sound. This is a true masterpiece from the german duo. You're missing out a great album, if you liked their previous tracks, and haven't got this yet. 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Epic Automata Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 I like the old goa sound and I enjoyed this album too. Then again, I suspect it's not everybody's bag. It's very dark in an almost sinister sort of way and pretty minimal in my opinion. After listening to it a few times carefully they manage to throw in some really catchy sounds - the kind you have to rewind over and over to get them out of your system. Very original. 7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jebus Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 I wish my testicles would enlarge and then explode on a projected space of infinite anal beam time. ahoy-hoy space bung-hole trippers! the messiah has cum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest happy yet no hippy Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 Does that mean that you like the album? ] I think it's ok, but nothing too special. It's time that someone comes along and says fuck to the existing little rules in psytranceland, or -galaxy if you may. And releases something that's truly innovative... I think Jebus would call it a messiah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dazze Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 This is really a killer album! Minimal for sure, but its got something extra that many minimal acts don't have. Dosen't feel really THAT minimal to me, still got a little melodie line here and there... superb! 9/10 - one o my favorites this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest eckan Posted December 21, 2001 Share Posted December 21, 2001 one of the better albums this year.. I agree.. Track number 3 is my favorite... NOSTROMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nois[at]techmedia.poznan[dot]pl Posted December 22, 2001 Share Posted December 22, 2001 mmm... I like minimal/progressive sound, but I found this album a bit boring. I mean, each track is good, but nothing more, and the whole album... it will put you asleep in 30 minutes. the dark entries track on iboga was a lot better than all tracks on this cd. 7/10.

Guest dernuk Posted February 12, 2002 Share Posted February 12, 2002 very dark from the beggining, I'd say it didn't bore me like the rest of uplifting psycho-agressive-albums, at least this one have bizarre atmospheres and i keep this album like a goa-dark album. one of the very uniques pieces of art 8.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Xymaths Posted March 26, 2002 Share Posted March 26, 2002 Its allright, kind of a cross between Bitmonix,Yumade and Deviant Species. Not exactly dancefloor killer stuff but probably Ok with a spliff on Sunday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest transphere Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 Haven't bought this one yet, but I surely intend to do so since I just love Zerotonine and his wonderful minimal psy-style =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bazooko circus Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 if u like minimal this one is highly recommended. favs are titanium cluster and moneypenny. 8.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Acidhive Posted July 26, 2002 Share Posted July 26, 2002 Pumping & dark... that's the story here. These guys produce it really well if you're into this sort of thing. An as regular readers / writers here know, I am into this sort of thing, so ... Anyway, it all has a nice deep space creepy kind of feel about it. Remember those movies like Event Horizon, Alien (and it's successors) that kind of feeling is what I get when listening to this. Meanwhile the dark, hammering kickdrum, and the swirling noises and humming bassloop take you there (or not). They do it for me anyway, and I'd like to give this a solid 8,5/10 Prokyon, Medusa's Breath... listen to those for the atmosphere this creates. Really good!!
