Good songs on CD 1 are 1,5&9, the rest is bad!! CD2... Well, it starts with a great psychedelic song and than it continous with the best song of SUN-Project ever made... Wonderful how they use guitars in their music!! Chi-ad. Show's us heaven and after that we have some WONDERFUL Israeli Goa-Trance... Song 6 is "something weird..." and there's more flowding Psy-Trance by D5!!! Song 8 is the only song on this CD that is not awesome!!! and this magical trip finishes with a good Ambient song...

Guest Acidhive Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 As I (almost) always review these compilations track by track, I'll do that here too. CD1 starts with a GREAT track by Atmos, it was the first time for me to ever hear Atmos and i had to get used to his style. But after a couple of listens, I knew Atmos was great. (And he still is). Next up is Nucleus with a good storming (a bit old style) track. Next up is COP with one of their most melodic songs. Pretty good, although Bloodsuckers and El Nino are better tracks IMO. Bumbling Loons deliver a quality track here, which is really good. Not full On, but still quite uplifting. Etnica delivers a stomping track, with (again) lots of samples from Star Trek. Phoetus is Tarsis and as such produce a real pounding hard track full of energy. Klangstrahler Project chills us down with Deep Thought, which is great for chilling out. Slap is SUN Project and retains their funky style. Quite good, although not very Goa like. Then SSO comes up with one of their best songs ever. Washington. Love the samples in this one and the great groove. On to CD2, which starts really dark with Astronomikx. SUN Project comes up, funky and with guitars. A great track. Chi a.d. shows his harsher side here which is not bad, although he's far better at making atmospheric goa. (Moonart And Exit Eternity for example) Power Source produce a good remix of a classic track of theirs, although the original is still a little better. Astral Projection delivers a dark version of Mahadeva here. (Pretty good, although mix 22 of Mahadeva doesn't interest me very much) Tim Schuldt Vs Spacecat rules bigtime!! Great. Dimension 5 continue their usual style. A bit like old style goa, and it's great! Sonic Fusion is more like techno, although this track is pretty good IMO. You have to 'learn' to listen to this kind of music. Gabriel Le Mar rounds this comp. off in style with a great ambient song. Overall, 8,5 from me. A great compilation.

seraph Posted February 1, 2002 Share Posted February 1, 2002 Ummm, these volumes start to go downhill from this volume...this time is even less melodic than before and there are many fillers added, just for sake of as i see, but beside that, there are still some gems : CD 1 : KLEIN ABER DOCTOR, DARK HORSE, FAIRY IN THE DRAGONFOREST, RUMBLING TOON, RESISTANCE...6.5/10 and CD 2 : CELESTIAL, GRANADA RMX, MAHADEVA RMX, SOMETHING WEIRD, LIMITLESS DIMENSION...7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
