Guest Zeitti Posted May 6, 2001 Share Posted May 6, 2001 Great, melodic goa trance. One of the best album's I've heard. I personally like melodic goa trance better than just the baselines, so this is just the right stuff for me. Every track is really good, the worse being Merope and the best definitely Maia. Maybe I too should give this a rating, it's 10/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpha Posted May 21, 2001 Share Posted May 21, 2001 I disagree with the review above, at least I loved this cd right after the first time I listened to it! The best song is definitely Taygeta, it's just sooooooo groooovyyyyyyy! And yeah, I rarely listen to Celaeno, I don't want to relax at the end, I want the adrenaline to stay in my blood after the cd!

Jeff Posted June 12, 2001 Share Posted June 12, 2001 The best Psy album I own so far. Great melodies, great distorted sounds. Celaeno is the only bad track, they missed the chill-out one on this album, but they made Seven Sisters on Family of light, so it's forgotten. The production is a bit messy, too bad. Only 9/10 because of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dreamweb55[at]yahoo[dot]com Posted July 12, 2001 Share Posted July 12, 2001 MAIA... the end this is REAL trance music... 1000/1000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FinnHawk Posted July 12, 2001 Share Posted July 12, 2001 I just recently discovered this CD, and I absolutely loved it the FIRST time I listened to it. I've only listened to it a few times now, and I think this is gonna be stuck in my CD player for some time to come. This is exactly the type of stuff I've been craving. I love multiple layers of melodies where I can pick out which one I want to concentrate on while listening to it. I'll be sure to add a more detailed review once I've listened to this great masterpiece more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Quetzalgoatl Posted July 17, 2001 Share Posted July 17, 2001 A must!!!!!!!!!!!! Asterope is one of the greatest dancefloor killers ever. And the rest...fabulous!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Cocco Posted July 17, 2001 Share Posted July 17, 2001 Having had even more time to listen to this I can finally update my review from the above. Maia- this song rocks and makes me think of the dark unkrown in the cosmos. Taygeta- so wild! The complex sound and mixing is total masterpiece. Merope- Very deep, powerful bass with powerful everything else. This song is excellent. Aclyone- Seems to be better for the dance floor instead of listening. Great song, nonetheless. Electra- Awesome. Actually, very awesome. No other words to describe. Asterope- OH MY FUCKING GOD!!! THIS SONG IS BEYOND!!! I made a mistake in my F.O.L. review saying that the song, Family of Light made me go 130mph in my fathers Benz S420. I must of been really fucked up at the time because Asterope is that track! It is so insane that when I got to 130mph, I was throwing shit, I was so pissed it was electronically limeted to 130mph. I wanted to go 160mph. Lastly Celaeno is still my least favorite track. I don't want the rush to end! NO, no, no, no, no,no,no. I want to more. I want to drive 245mph in a Mclaren F1 while listening to Asterope. That song literally powers you with such adrenaline, it's a wonder how anyone can compose such insane music. This is the type of Goa-trance that should always be made. But why is this cd so much better then F.O.L??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Swede Indeed Posted August 20, 2001 Share Posted August 20, 2001 What can I say, I bought this on chance and wasn't disaponted...Loved it from the first listen. Maia is a great psychedelic track but it sounds old. Older than the others. So does Electra. Taygeta is good too and Merope is a killer. Very hard sounding, could fit on FOL cause the sound is deeper than the rest. Alcyone is the best track here...Real Psychedelica! Electra was my first favourite but now I think it's just too much. Too many breaks and different melodies. Still an awsome track. Asterope is a more soft sounding track and the second best track. And I must agree with almost evryone else, Celaeno is not as good as the others, but stil ok when I am in the mood. This album should be in every goa-lovers collection. 10/10 but beware of Celaeno...

Guest Swede Indeed Posted August 20, 2001 Share Posted August 20, 2001 I bought this on chance and I wasn't disapointed. Lovley piece of Real goa-trance with lots of psychedelic melodies. Some small flaws tough (very small actually), Maia and Electra sounds older than the others, Electra is a little too much, too many different melodies and breaks, and Celaeno is not as good as the rest. Empty track. Apart from that this is the best psychedeic album I own. Alcyone and Merope are best (Electra is a killer too :-) Merope sounds more like a FOL track. I can't give this less than a 10/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fheierli[at]mails[dot]ch Posted September 5, 2001 Share Posted September 5, 2001 More than phantastic! Before i bought this CD was the second Pleiadians-Album FOL my favourite CD. But IFO is much better: Family of Light is very good (particularly Headspin), but this is a masterpiece. The tracks are powerfull and melodic. Every track tells his own story, with the musical escalation in the middle of the pieces. All tracks are in my opinion incredible, there are no tracks where everything is wrong. The ambient track at the end is also phantastic, soft but very deep. My favourite tracks on this are 2,4,5,6. Rating: 10/10 (best Goa-CD ever made).

alpha Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 well no need for long reviews, i'll just say that this is a masterpiece, one of my all time favourites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VBRunner Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 Ahh, I can't believe I haven't reviewed this one yet! Of course the (still) best album of all time, imho. There is nothing else like this. I can only wish they will release something new and evolved. Seeing that they have taken Etnica to a more minimal route, I would like to see something more full-on under Pleiadians. One of the few albums that actually deserve 10/10.

Guest [Anonymous] Posted October 30, 2001 Share Posted October 30, 2001 Listening to this album the 1st time, my head just couldn't take all the sounds at once; but hearing it over and over again increased my ability to follow the build-up an I actually realised THIS ALBUM IS A PSY-MASTERPIECE !!! Not a single track is boring at any time, basslines are superb, melodix go all the way! Favorite trax: 4!,1!,2,7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest barstar[at]jippii[dot]fi Posted December 25, 2001 Share Posted December 25, 2001 Oh my fu**ing god!! This is easily the best album I've ever bought or heard! So energic but still psychedelic... Alcyone, Taygeta, Electra, Maia, Asterope... where can I find more tracks like these... at this point I'd say nowhere! Even my friends who listen brainbashing banging only liked this! BUY THIS ONE IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT YET 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Molarkis dawn masa anonimus Posted January 7, 2002 Share Posted January 7, 2002 Let's see now , i've got this Act Of God for like 5 years and i'm hearing it again now for like the 6000 time. this album can't be judged by no-one . defently the cream elite of psy-trance ever made on existance , it take lot's of time to dig in the candies inside ofcourse , a multi layer piece like that can't be taken in one whole swallow . *every* track is unique , i've heard people rumbling about Maya and Electra to be old?? what the fuck? give it time , Maya and actually all the other tracks on the album is in my all time fav for years , nothing fall short in this album , it's brilliant in ways you can't comprehand yet , Electra is so full of channels and amazing wild breaks its drill a hole in your mind .. (like a mix between Juno and posford in good dayz) . and Celaeno bring you down to reality very nice and smooth , a divine ending for a creation like that . i'm still playing it on parties and ppl are jumping like monkies to its sounds , now .. after 5 years - amazing..

Guest martin_m[at]marihuana[dot]com Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 i think thath the pleiadians ifo is one of the greatest albums ever made.the sounds after 6 years sounds amazing.electra,maya,taygeta&celaeno are also one of the best track's ever made.if you are a fan to psy.trance you must be mad if you don't have it in your collection.so i said at the beginning after all this years it's still dynamic&psychodelic as it was. 1010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest phlegetonyarre[at]hotmail[dot]co Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 One of the best albums ever made, if not THE best!! Every track is a masterpiece! You MUST buy this one. 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
