Review:

 

Here it is!! I know you've been asking to all DJs And people you know for

since 99 summer, since you heard those tracks during an Etnica live

somewhere, and nobody never wanted to give them to you....you nearly turned

mad during this year..."will i ever get this Trip Tonight remix?"...and

eventually you dont have to look for unreleased of those (my own case?

no....), they are simply on a vinyl in your favourite record shop !! Thanks

MDMA!! Now the review :

The style of this EP is closer to the Juggeling Alchemists &

Alien Protein than Equator. Etnica are providing us with their oldschool

style. like it or not, but its definitely different from Mindaltering Drugs

/ the Dominator EP

Hell's Kitchen (played live by Etnica some time ago) is - to my

mind - absolutely fantastic: not really fast, a bit repetitive, but so well

done, so bewitching..so everything. the melody, the noises, the rhythm, the

whole groove are good. Its a typical Etnica track, just twisted the good

way, and a bit darker....It's just trippy to Hell !!! It's GOOD, that's all.

Trip Tonight, remix of Trip

Tonite on Alien Protein looks like its elder brother but more dancefloor

oriented...you can regognize everything, and this remix was certainly worked

on for ages before getting this pure mindfucking masterpiece. Its a long

effective trip full of many tricks, well chosen noises, and mindbending

evolutions And breaks. everything urges you to dance on it....rhaa hard to

describe:

If you never heard this before, you had better be in my shoes while I heard

it the first time: Avi Algranati was playing it, people were nearly flying

over the dancefloor!

All was thought about: the track surprises you all along, and beware this

break near the end: you might be mindshocked!

If i had to compare this EP to another I could say that this is the true

brother of Vimana/Plastic EP as it's the same style we oldschoolers love,

the same quality (perfect), the same trip....Thanks ETNICA 10/10.

I'm even listening to this EP at this moment and Mars is 100% RIGHT!!! It's a

MASTERPIECE!!!!!!

 

Both songs are rather slow (Hell's Kitchen 128 BPM and Trip Tonight 139 BPM)

but still it fucking ROCKS!!

 

Those melodies make you fly FAR away... :o)))

 

Shit, you better read the review of Mars, he said it completely right!!! :o)))

 

10/10!!! Bom Shankar

this is one of the best vinyls that was released this year.

This one is a masterpiece indeed.. you can't efford to miss it!

I heard Trip Tonight (Rmx) about a year ago in a huge party and I was totally

amazed.. I couldn't believe they did it again with this great track..

I spent the entire year looking for this track.. I finally got it some months

ago and now its released.. bah. hehe :)

but I'm still glad to have it.. 10/10 indeed.

Great EP, both are good tracks, in my opinion Hell's kitchen is better than

trip tonight remix, though. I like those speech samples on trip tonight, those

sound insane.

No need to tell you about the tracks anymore, I guess other reviewers have

pointed out everything that needs to be said. Etnica...you're the best!! 10/10

Excellent! I'm so glad that everybody here feels the same as I do about this

record. As soon as it arrived and I played it, I knew that something amazing

was about to happen. Trip Tonite original from Alien Protien was for years my

favourite track, how it so slowly and carefully brings the vibe in. This

remix doesn't have that, but it is much much better for dancefloors.

 

My only complaint is that the speed is far too slow on Hell's Kitchen, and too

fast on 45. But the melodies are SO HUGE that I have to give this release a

10/10 also...

Yes, this is quality release from Etnica. These guys are just sooo good. I

really like both of these tracks. I must say that even though it was released

recently, it sounds more like the old Etnica. You know, more emphasis on the

thick layers of melodies and constant driving kick. If you like Etnica,

you'll dig this like none other. Although I really like the Spirit Zone

Etnica, if you know what I mean. 8.5/10

This was released in 2000??? Wow! When I first heard Hell's Kitchen I thought

it was from 96-97 and I somehow missed it. It really stands out from the

other stuff released nowadays. Very melodic...strange voices in the

background. This is one of my favorite tracks right now. I especially like

that dark breakdown. And it's not dark because they have low bass or some

spooky sound...it's all in the melody. My only complaint is that it's a bit

long and it seems that they just repeat things a few times. part a part b

part a part c part b...something like that. Trip Tonight is also a good

melodic track. Can't say much about it other than that. Top release from

Etnica who always amased me how their tracks have so much harmony and how all

the melodies fit together so well.

The difference between Trip Tonite and Trip Tonight (Rmx) is not very big, same

melody, almost the same speed and so on... but still they're quite different

in the feel, because Trip Tonite is more Chill while Trip Tonight (Rmx) is

more tweaked and psyched. Trip Tonight (Rmx) is also longer, and the track

seems much more expanded both in length and in the sound, the melody is no

longer soothing instead Etnica has tweaked it into one wicked psychedelic

layer. Trip Tonight (Rmx) will get 9/10, a very interesting track from

beginning to the end. Hell's Kitchen is also a very twisted track, lot's of

things going on, interesting breaks and a scary sort of atmosphere. Hell's

Kitchen is slower and the sounds are more dark to the feel, actually the

melodies in Trip Tonight (Rmx) and Hell's Kitchen is totally opposite of each

other. Trip Tonight (Rmx) has a more positive vibe while Hell's Kitchen has a

very twisted and gloomy vibe. Still Hell's Kitchen is a good track, not as

interesting as Trip Tonite (Rmx) though. Hell's Kitchen will get 7/10. EP

total 8/10...
