MOS - Drive

[Guest dEc-0-y_]

Fuckkin great!!! listen to this LOUD at night!!! all good tracks! favs:

1,2!,3,5,7 overall: 9/10

[Guest psygroove]

Yeeeeesssss, I am not a minimal fan at all and was a little disappointed by

their last album Meter, but this one is a true masterpiece... I downloaded it

and then bought it right away as this is a must for my collection.

Check track 1,2,3,4,8, they are the most powerfull ones, also some ambient (?)

tracks as well, PLUR

[Guest bauer[at]scheune[dot]net]

verry nice album for all the tech-trance heads ... only track 9 is not really

my style the rest especially tracks 1,2,5 and 6 are great.

[ouroboros]

well ive just given it a first listen. a very good album indeed. if you like

the m.o.s. style then you will not be disappointed. all the familliar elements

(no pun intended) are there without getting old or boring. i personaly dont

think this is much of a step forward from meter and i actualy like meter

better as i think meter more powerfull, but drive is still a strong offering.

maybe not a "must" have but definatly a "should" have. of course its only my

first listen and we all know how these things tend to get better the more you

listen. for right now i give it 7.5/10

Review:

 

M.O.S. is back and this time the sound is great...much better that the

disappointing meter, it's a crossover between bug and meter, with the sound of

the first, better recording, and the power of the second lp...tracks are

powerful, dark and groovy in the first half of the cd, tracks 5,6 are

breakbeat tracks, track 7 its' like the firsrt part of the cd while the last

two tracks are a little more morning style...Tracks are not so varied but the

sound kicks the ass and it's much better than a lot of minimal psy around

here, and the dark atmosphere and electronic sounds of bug are back!!!

[Guest OA vs. BL]

This is very good. Much better than meter. I am quite happy listening to this.

[Guest Defbydelta...]

good mos qualety all trough..

Theres one thing about Mos just like Gms, theyr cds sounds same as the one

before. That is awsome, cuz i love mos's style alot!

This is the best mos album so dark tunes and lovely sounds ...

Rating: 8.5/10

[Guest chriller]

Great album, I get this weird feeling listening to the songs--I suppose thats

what they wanted it to do. I love it.

[Guest Nois]

Yeah... About the vinyl versions, the psy-trance scene is slowly but constantly

converting itself into cd-mixing scene. Not a half of compilations and albums

is released on vinyl. Not good. MOS = 100% dancefloor burn guarantee Cheers.

[Guest yan84[at]aquanet[dot]co[dot]il]

MOS IS BEST & THEY ARE GREAT & THEY ALL 3 ALBUMS SOUND'S WONDERFUL TO ME

[Guest Lahav]

Very good CD I can hardly stop it, nice style of MOS my favourite track is

number 2 very very powerfull, and look out - something is coming...I didn't

like track 6 old style, and I didn't like it at all so I'll give this cd 810,

because I didn't hear something as good as this this year, and I'm talking

about the whole cd...

[Guest Lahav]

A little correction, I REALLY LOVED this cd and by mistake I wrote didn't like

it at all - I talked about t6...

[Guest russ]

i loved bug. i loved the sound of meter but not the structure and arrangements

so much. Drive combines the best of both into a psychedelic, dance-floor

burning masterpiece. this is the BOMB. i think they have the biggest sound

around right now. this is even better than the new X-Dream and Midimiliz in my

opinion, and it is MUCH better than the Delta. good god, this is going to rip

up the dance floors this summer...pure drive...dark hypnotic bliss. every

single track is a killer, the downtempo ones are both killers too. this is far

and away the best release since son kite's "perspectives of..." last year,

with the same massive, monumental production, but for the night. as far as

production standards go, for me this is the new benchmark, along with the Son

Kite/Trimatic/Filur sound. some might say it is derivative of the

marcus/jan/arne/wayan crew, and they might be right, but that doesn't take

anything away from this achievment, because it's BETTER than X-Dream. the

first part of the album tears your head off, the middle slows the beat but

keeps the intenisty high and stretches your mind, and the final part settles

you into a deep groove, before finishing with a track of quiet rolling

beauty..coming soon this summer to a big sound system near you...

10/10!!!!

p.s. the MOS remix of ticon's "mammoth hunters" on Digital Structures is also a

huge 10/10. highly recommended.

[Guest Defbydelta...]

Yes that remix is so Phat!! Killer Mos dosen't do bad music! Nuff said!!

 

mos is future:::::::::::::::::::.....................

[Guest -=Maskalin=-]

defently a great Album ...frrp in to your

mind, i give it 9/10

[Guest HAch]

im so tired about the fucking thing about the ag and mp3 stuff.personally, i

dont have money to buy records, so what? is that something wrong? it doesnt

give the oportunity to say my opinion? is it less value than others? comon

people grow up

[Guest Shaq]

Best track is ZUGSTUFE...absolutely brilliant! I like BANG too. The others are

ok..but fairly average. Don't really like the down tempo ones. Overall a good

album though. 7/10

[Guest [Anonymous]]

intelligent trance ... very gooód for me. clear sounds. goood slow / quick

parts. best album 4 me since 2 month - 10/10

 

elektrobar.com

[Guest Tomvcarter]

A very good album, better than Meter, which was also very good, 8/10 (dont like

downtempo tracks 6,7)

[Guest transphere]

9.5/10... buy or die, this album should _everyone_ have in his collection.

[freak51]

This is a really pretty release. Once again, I find the sound definition is

not so hot, but it is better than Meter. Enough quibbling - over big

beer/testosterone thumping worn-out old speakers, it'll sound like everything

else. The direction is back towards retro-ish trance, lots of delay and

sustain. This is no bad thing, M.O.S. never lets it turn into mushy cheese.

There have been a few top-quality CD releases in 2002, and I'd say this

belongs in that class. Better than X-Dream? I don't think so. Worth buying?

Definitely. 9/10 from me.

dead flat rocks

 

for me ...at this moment

DRIVE is the best album of this year !

 

good job

[Guest jigga]

heard quite a few of the tracks on this one . really good. I've got both mos's

other cd's and bug for its time was brillaint .. the 2nd one was good, but

like few ppl have said it was different .. aint nothing wrong with that .. you

just couldnt go sick at a partie with some of those trax as you could with the

first one. I believe this has changed for this new cd , every tack i've heard

has a good beat and melodie to it .. sounds like they've mixed element and bug

together and gotten drive .. literally

its good stuff .. I thought this cd would be a stinka from the global trance

netwrok + I saw mos live last year and they were ok , but not great, but it

turns out to be a great release along with other new released cdz from

x-dream, wizzy noise and logic bomb. 8.9/10 .. their best work yet

[Guest Pamela]

Ahhhh...the best of MOS. 'Respirator'...flipped me out entirely...10/10. This

was meant to play L-O-U-D, and not on chickenshit speakers. MOS, see ya in

Belgium in August...

[soem aeld]

I love the first part of the CD (tracks 1-4)! Oh yeah! The rest is great

too, but kinda dissapointing after hearing the first trax and expecting the

other to be as techtrancy as them.. 8.5/10
