Guest AslaK Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 Psyside - First Contact Artist: Psyside Title: First Contact Label: Acidance Date: 2001 Track listing: 01. OGM Red Alert 02. Day Of The Beast 03. Lost Soul 04. Mint Taste 05. Galactic Law 06. Ghost Or Goul 07. Hysteria 08. Krusty Burger ... With Cheese 09. Last Train To Nowhere Review: Usually, I don't make reviews, I just read them... But I saw that nobody reviewed this album, and I think it's a really great one. I won't review each track. I'll just say that's that this album has quite the same style as the Neuromotor's Neuro Damage. I think that Psyside are also french guys (like Neuromotor). At least their name sounds very french : "Jean Phillipe Bord & Jean Luc Silvestre". So... this album is very powerful, with kicking-ass kicks & basslines... For sure, there's some dancefloors-killers on this album ! So run to your CD shop and listen to it !!! BOM SHIVA ! Quote
Guest Neuromotor Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 it s a fucking good one ,never stop that my friends all the people who like weird and full on should have this album bravo Quote
Guest Maskalin Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 Well...its a big change for psyside, they progress in thir music alot and this Album reflect their proffesonal !! the CD is very good with nice sounds and psychedelic vibes my opinion is 8.5/10 Quote
Guest --==MileS==-- Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 I wasn't too convinced maybe because it indeed sounds an awful lot like Neuromotor and the other 2112 progressive artists outthere although fortunately Psyside are somewhat more faithful to their psychedelic roots. -First Contact- is nowhere a bad showcase of programming skills but no sign of utterly must-hear briliance eighter imo. Safe purchase if your tolerance level can still handle more 3dVision Style stompers than legally allowed. 7/10. Quote
Guest ivan.nowodworsky[at]aventis[dot] Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 Very good album, yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 10/10 UndergroundShaman Quote
Guest moander[at]media[dot]mit[dot]edu Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 Day of the Beast is real good, the rest is so so, I mean none of it is bad, but I still prefer "virtual reality" much more than this... Quote
Guest vasyachkin Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 sounds half way between pleiadians and wizzy noise - very good )) Quote
Guest psyborg2001[at]mail[dot]com Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 i agree with you..its a fucking good album. full on and very trippy.these guys have their own style and trust me it rocks...! Quote
Guest [Anonymous] Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 very good and very wizzy sound just perfect anomaly in your brain. Quote
Guest Dandoo Forest Posted January 30, 2002 Posted January 30, 2002 Krusty Burger ... With Cheese , DA BEST the rest is boring to me Quote
Guest Kent Posted January 31, 2002 Posted January 31, 2002 one of the best full on album since long time...high energy and original style...9/10 Quote
Guest --==Miles==-- Posted January 31, 2002 Posted January 31, 2002 Progressive is not necessarily a genre but a mere indication that it is different than the old style, which it in Psyside's case is. Progressive Jazz, rock or metal has nothing to do with progressive minimalistic stuff from Scandinavia...Its not exclusive to Psy and has different meanings...so there Quote
Guest want[at]intersting.basslines[dot Posted February 1, 2002 Posted February 1, 2002 good stuff. i especially like the subtle melodies in track 3. only thing is though----artists, PLEASE find a way to transcend the 16th-note-bassline rut. i guess we have xdream to blame for starting that whole phenomenon a few years back...

Guest bubunotsets Posted February 2, 2002 Posted February 2, 2002 i think neuro damage is more atmospheric.first contact is a bit better composition wise(more intelligent imho) Quote
Guest fcarnio[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted February 2, 2002 Posted February 2, 2002 Great release , very powerfull , all the tracks are powerfull , weird , real dancefloor killers , great release , another one from Acidance who just release good stuff 8/10.....BOOM SHANKAR!!!!!!!!! Quote
Guest FelipeLemosBrasil Posted February 3, 2002 Posted February 3, 2002 VERY GOOD RELEASE!!! Psyside is one of the best artists in his style, agressive, fast, psychedelic, total LSD!! I like it a lot, best tracks for me are Day of the beast (with The number of the beast-Iron Maiden sample!), Krusty Burger, Galatic Law...but all are good!! I think its 100000000 times better than Neuromotor...here the noises makes sense.... 9/10. Quote
Guest diablo_mxmn[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted February 10, 2002 Posted February 10, 2002 full on trance to its (almost) maximum level. o.g.m red alert: 9.1/10 day of the beast: 9.7/10 (where is the number of the beast sample?) lost soul: nice melodie that tries to fuck up with your mind... - 10.3/10 mint taste: 8.7/10 galactic law: too much high freqeuency's here - 7.6/10 ghost & soul: i like the bassline (but i think it would be much better for the track if psyside would have played with its filters) - 9.6/10 hysteria: bad melodies in here, it sounds like psyside invited theire neiboure to make a track (by himself) on theire equipment - 5.1/10 krusty burger with cheese: same as above - 5.1/10 last train to nowhere: can you taste the darkness? - 7.9/10 the whole cd: a nice trip to the darkside of trance music in full(on) speed! - 7.9/10 yours truely - psychedelic teacher/psy-t Quote
Guest Defbydelta... Posted February 16, 2002 Posted February 16, 2002 i LOVE Full on when it goes like this and thats why it should!! the heavy Parasense fealling comes on u sometimes and that neuromotor style rolls in like a wave from heaven and turn u up side down.. and u just wanna know what journey the next track gonna take u whit. Kicks like wave shadow has and Fuzz Gravity whit that rolling bass line ROCKS!!! (sometimes) if they r built up like this. Ladies and Gentlemen i think we got a 10 / 10 here Quote
Guest Stimpski Posted February 18, 2002 Posted February 18, 2002 This album is one of the best i've ever heard! This is psytrance at its best! It's not exactly the same as their previous work, what doesn't mean it's not as good. Their new sound is even more professional. If you #really# listen to this album you can do nothing else but be overwelmed by it! (or you simply don't like this genre) Quote
Guest SjÖgGe Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 this is pure full on wicked psycadelic monster trance, its in class whit neuromotor-neuro damage, and from the same label acidance, im suprised becouse i think this is much better then their prewious work, so all party people buy this album and enjoy, the journey will never stop..10[10 Quote
Guest Zeus Class Posted March 8, 2002 Posted March 8, 2002 Krusty burger with cheese... ? why... this is stupid. Good album... but this guy needs to stop watching so much american television... fuck homer simpson, who gives a fuck about some cartoon? take this a little more seriously next time... Mumbo jumbo started this mess please don't copy him. Quote

danger Posted April 5, 2002 Posted April 5, 2002 Psyside rocks...big time...the album is crunchy, hard , twisted and very powerful! Though I'm not into all of the tracks, but well produced ones are here. Lost Soul kick ass!!!! woohoo, what a crazy and funny track it is Quote
