Review:

 

This is the 3rd compil from the Italian label Neurobiotic.

The first track, by Etnica uses the same instruments as in Andromeda (big

bassline, rave sounds) but it's far slower. It makes no compromise but it's

various, like in Hologram. I think it's a good relaxing piece of music and

sampling. Simply pleasant.

The Triplex track is really minimal and monotonous at the begining. Then the

sounds are almost cracking, it's creepy all along. For minimal specialists.

The Stuntman track is really fast and uses lots of hihats. This is a hardtechno

track. It should work on a motivated dancefloor.

The D-Tector track is rolling and uses some wobbling sounds that run across

your brain. the tracks evolves nicely but when you think there's going to be a

break, it restarts like before. It's ok but get boring after a few listenings.

The Molecular track kicks hard and uses a huge bassline. It's really energetic

and evolves into a phase where there is some music. There are two distinct

parts in this song. Great.

The Examino track attacks your brain quickly with all the constituents of

minimal music. The rhythmic was worked on in a good way here. But at 3:40

there is a technodancehousy melody, immediately followed by some music that

was changed into soemthing more psychedelic. Personnally i don't like the

tracks that use this kind of instruments but it saves it from being too

monotonous; moreover this could be ok on some happy dancefloors.

The Altom track is the reason why i wrote this review. This is purely awesome :

well done, fast, of the nightfullon kind that drives dancefloors crazy. At the

begining it sounds like Absolum, but at 2:00 it becomes agressive (aaââh), so

you jump inthe air...and at 3:30, the combination of the bassline and the new

dark sounds all around make it fantastic. (This break is built like

Spirallianz' OneWayLtd, for example). Before some ghosts catch you, the tracks

becomes less creepy, keeps its bassline and restarts like in the begining,

still agressive. The dark melody comes again later in the background while

you're dancin' like a freak !!!

The Stralia track *does* sound like an Absolum track. Fast, loaded rhythmic, an

avalanche of nordleaded samples, more or less clear and acid...and without a

surprise it climbs into a madness of all this at the end...

Finally, the Vibra track was also inspired by 3DV labs (what a coincidence).

hmmm my opinion is exactly the same as in the previous track!

Overall a good compilation that will make you feared by your neighbors, and

that will please people that like nightly stomping music in general. Too bad

the last 2 tracks don't sound that fresh. I think it is less good than 9 Pills

(2nd NEurobiotics compil) but it's worth having, at least for the Altom bomb!

7/10.

Fast farward is the best 'Neurobiotic' had !!!

Molecular track is the best in this compilation , the basslines takes you to

groove and the smart drumloops that makes you jump.

the compilation works for the individual that is looking for all sorts of

variations in an cd. you have for example progressive with the first few

tracks, some progressive and psy trance in the middle with great vocal samples

and you have full on in the end so for the individual looking for many

different styles of trance this is a good compilation nice to listen to

beginning to end highlights are the feel the heat, altom track, the two greek

acts in the beginnning, vibra track, and triplex tune. For the individual

looking for either a full on or progressive cd dont expect this to do the

trick.

It's a clean production... again with lots of high tech songs, a pleasure for

your ears man. Best on the CD is Stralia.

Stralia will reach the top! I am sure of that, when i hear their promo

material, ... Woehoew, They got one new fan!

Well, the hits consistency is actually stays pretty much the same in the

series. That is heard from attentive listening to this issue (or any in the

back-catalogue), it is seen from others reviews above, eventually it stinks

so! Yet there is still the style is real, I mean the Neurobiotics sense being

served alongside these tracks. There's something dark, techy & bold at the

same time. And it pierces its way under my stoneskin, leaving my heart

untouched, though, but chivers down my spine were sent, that's nuff! My

respect goes to Neurobiotics crew for staying true to the route once

established while offering the decent amount of progress-ion-elements (just to

keep up the pace). 7,5/10. "Consistent quality!" - Tchancov I.V.
