Review:

 

cd1 is full of tracks but the tracklist isn't very good and

cd2 is better but quite short.

That could be the sum up of this comp.

Some more details about tracks and artists, here we start

on cd1 with Ouija (Mc Coy & Sacha Pragal) which is not at

his best on this attempt of trance-chill.

Younger Brother are Simon Posford + Benji Vaughan, and

deliver a strange tune mixing psychedelic sounds and

country-blues (in my mind disappointing ).

Morphem have done a boring track which was previously

released on their album.

Kick Bong is a french artist, listening Vaporum you have

the impression that you're in a sauna or a hamam .

Ooze (Seb Muellaert from Son Kite) gives a nice springlike

melody with noises imitating bird's singing, it's without

any doubt one of the best stuff on cd1.

Yucatan (Yann Hennaf of Bamboo Forest) track contains

synthesized voices,average.

Indiadrop (seems to be american) have melt arabian

sounds , saxophone and guitar wah-wah.

It results for me, that's the worst track of the whole

compilation.

Peaceful and serenity atmospheres are inside Alien

Mutation work, very good.

Spacefish (Linus Wessel and 2 others guys) ends well this

first cd with soft guitar riffs.

Best Things arrives with cd2, you won't find here bad

tracks, just 2 average from Ololiuqui (awfull synthesized

voice) and Kassiopeia (bit boring).

Mention to Grey Area, Lissa (italian producer?),Jens

Buchert (nice melody played at transverse flute) and

Electric Universe.

Frizz Bee contains soft sax and guitar.

Dubbelhelix , what a surprise, with Magic Night is dubby

and composed by Jam El Mar and Michael Kohlbecker (from

Saafi bros) .

rating : 7/10 (mostly due to cd2)

Whoaou whoaou, it seems to me that there's much talk about this new

compilation !!

 

Unfortunately, arguments remain always and always the same... Some like

deep-ambient-very-slow-without-kick-during-a-quarter-hour, and some like

ultra-psychedelic-atmospheric-bassed-chill-vibes....

 

Well...... i like BOTH !! and I always laugh when I read someone writing "it's

boring" !!

 

This compilation is quite quite well done and masterised, and use what I would

like to call a "new generation" of samples....

 

I think U should understand that the artists are fed up with making always the

same..... They aren't Robots..... are they ? (Hu hu...)

 

I can't agree with "Lelotusbleu" about the Younger Brother track.... I don't

want to take the defence of Posford (I respect him a lot, but Hallucinogen has

never been my favourite project), but Evil & Harm is greeeeeeat !!! With a

fantastic voice sample, and a nearly Hip-Hop or BreakBeat rythm...

 

Well done Spirit Zone, let's keep up the fight !

Only heard a few songs from this compil, all are exellent so far, including the

haunting beauty of Morphem "15 seconds".

If thats not Chill out music, then Elvis Presley created Drum & Bass.

OK - first off i must get this off my chest the first review says 'evil and

harm' is boring - ITS WRONG. This is a killer track and a definite stand out.

Personally it's the least boring track - although there aren't any boring

tracks on this compil!! might i add - the packaging is bloody SUPERB! The

first CD is supposed to be more trancey, and the second more loungy.. it's not

exactly transparent mixing between tracks, but the tracks are great sounding,

well mastered.. Very new sounding. Here and there we have the memorable melody

and/or rhythm (Although i probably could have done with a few more of these

than there are). Alot of beautiful sounds. did i mention the beautiful sounds?

hmm :P 8/10 I prefer vol.2 but this is fresher. I think it may take a few

listens to get comfortable with the tracks before i can seriously chill to

this.
