Review:

 

Here is the 3d release from Alchemy Records, and I think it's the

best so far! It's all modern psychedelic full on music, not really "happy

melodic" but with lots of sounds and effects... Sometimes like 3D-vision,

sometimes darker... The cd starts with Shift, the first 3 minutes are rather

minimal, but then a Gms-like melody comes in which continues the rest of the

song (with a long break in it). Number 2 is made by one of the newcomers

from Israel, it starts with a terrible sample, but after that we get a

powerful song with a somehow commercial sounding melody, not really my cup

of tea. The cd continues with a very good gms-song, there is much going on

in the Cheeseball remix, much more as in the original... Then Miraculix

kicks ass again... I'm really waiting on an album of them, it's typical

Miraculix style, many cool effects and some always repeating melodies untill

you have a big climax of sound in the end. Soundaholix' (3/4 of GMS) track

is rather funky and has typical Zorba-elements, but less melodic. I don't

like the Mino track, to linear, not enough changes I think... But no

problem... After that we get blown away by Darksoho! They make killer stuff

again... in the beggining it's sounds very new wave/electro like, very dark

with fat bassline and shhhhhhh-sounds, After 4 minutes we get a break with a

gothic-sounding melody, and after that BOOOM, we get those typical

Darksoho/Tim Schuldt Industrial sounds and haunting melodies and some violin

to make the atmosphere even more gothic! Magnificent song and imo the best

they have make (exept the fusion)! After that another song by Darksoho, but

tjis time in collaboration with DJ Shane Gobi, it's in the same style but

this songs doesn't have the climaxes as "The 14th"... But still is the

dark/gothic/electro/new wave atmosphere very much present! The cd ends with

a rather melodic track, nice for in the morning. All together this deserves

8/10 with a 10/10 for song 7!! Bom Shankar

What's so terrible about the sample in "Boobla Cartoons"?

It says: "Who gives a shit about police brutality".

come on...

I think the Dark Soho track sucks, I've seen these guys live and they are good

but they shouldn't be so indulgent and release Israeli film music disguised as

floor music, isn't it supposed to make you dance?, well, let's be honest, it

doesn't.. As for the rest of the CD is well short of a masterpiece! don't be

ridiculous.. The GMS track is one of the worse I heard by them. Mino's is a

MINUS.. and Miraculix have been given another chance to broadcast their

half-cooked silly fodder.. The first track is decent and that is all you can

realisticly say about this compilation.

All Tracks on this compilation is great and I'm not sure about

Dark Soho being film music?? OBVIOUSLY someone doesnt really understand the

nature of the beast :) It's music for the mind and body, but if the mind does

not get it then the body cant follow, so try to open your shamanicki mind

before before your mouth

I give the compilation 9/10 :)

Another STORM compilation by alchemy . Shane Gobi is always kicking with your

compilations !!!!!!!! This compilation has a dark taste , great stuff for all

artists and of course ANOTHER BIG STORM RELEASE by DARK SOHO (my favorite

song) , I´m just waiting for their album and anybody knows when they´ll

release???

This compilation deserves 9.5/10 because of the horrible sample in the track 2

BOOM!!!!!!!!

Very good comp here, track 1 is good Shift is one of the very promising acts,

track 2 is a fucking killer the best track for me here, track 3 is a good rmx

but nothing speciall, track 4 , 5 & 6 are good tracks but only that, track 7

is another killer here excellent for the night, track 8 is nice and finally

track 9 is very good.

8.5/10

I think the Alchemy releases have overall nicely produced tracks but they come

short on inspiration.. this one too, it does the job.. hardly a masterpiece as

someone put it.. 6/10

i followed your discussions with interest, there seems to be a good deal of

bigotism in the trance scene.. people getting extremely personal about other

people's opinions.. i'm with shamanicki, this is not so hot as you make of it

.. 5/10
