Review:

 

I like this compilation quite a lot! When it first came out it was packed

with previously unreleased tracks. Kinda like the first 3 FULL ON series.

Anyway, it's packed with well-know names, and pretty much, all of them lives

up to expectations.

The first CD starts out with a nicely made track by Talamasca. A kinda

Muslim feeling there with the chanting!

Boris Blenn of E.L. continues, with a relatively typical track from him.

Almost sounds like techno, with a few psy-elements thrown in.I guess that's

okay, if that's you thing! 3. track from Cosmosis is quite good! Infected

Mushroom's track needs no further introduction! Fantastic!. And we head on

to Fancy Visions which starts of very boring, but turns out to be quite a

jewel! Next track from Human Blue gets interesting after about 6½ minutes.

Seventh track by BPC is also great and the disc end with a little master

piece by Green Nuns in a remix of Tufaan. Great work there!

The second CD kicks of with the now classic Delta track "Travelling At The

Speed Of Thought".. Brilliant, dark, in-ya-face-notorious Delta sound! GMS

and Pheonix both delivers good tracks. GMS with a strange coughing-noise in

the end of the track and Phoenix gives me a nice jungle-like feeling! I

don't really care much for tracks 4, 5 and 6. What's with the sample sayin'

"Lift Of" all the time in Vibrasphere's track?. The final track remixed by

Tarsis is ok. Kinda repetitive, but in a good way!? :0)

All in all, you get good value for your money, and this CD is simply good!

Even the fillers aren't all that bad! 8,5/10 Bom shankar!

Phoenix the track is tracked again! Why oh why does he get to put tracked music

on this compilation! The soundquality is sooooooooo bad compared to the other

tracks...? Plur - Psylent Buddhi

Phoenix is Robert Jarnroth, the same person that compiles these compilations,

and that's probably why his tunes get released.

Phoenix is so very very dark and evil. They're ALL great.

"Lasr Mission", "The Dawn", "Jungle by Night", "Finger Licking", and "Heaven

and Hell".

And then ofcourse there's "Into the Desert" which is so deep, slow and

enchanting, that you can't help but be amazed of what this guy can do with so

bad samples/instruments.

Here's another damn good compilation from "WhyNot/Goldhead"!

But I think that CD1 is the best, and CD2 feels more like a compromise

(although it has a couple of good tracks).

Talamasca and Infected Mushroom has the most outstanding tracks!

A real wicked distorted synth lead on Montoya (Rmx)!

Cosmosis and Human Blue has also contributed with some hardkicking tracks! And

that's a solid 8/10

I was quite dissapointed when I bought this cd, espessialy over the Chi-Ad

track, it's SO disgusting! (taken from his terrible album, Anno Domini) Best

tracks has to be CD 1: 1,!!4!! and Cd 2: 1,!2!,3 other tracks are ok, but not

good. 6/10
