Review:

 

After the amazing Atmos album, Spiral Trax delivers his second compilation.

X.V. Kilist (What kind of name is that???!!!) opens this CD with a very Flying

Rhino oriented track that in minute 7 explodes with amazing class and energy,

a great song. The Atmos remix is not that good because is too fast for Atmos

groove. Gus Till and Bigwigs songs are very deep, well done but not my cup of

tea. Peak Pilots (Intact Instict) track is amazing, minimal but very powerful,

love that one. Bumbling Loons vs Planet BEN need to say more, great song.

Quixotic (Quirk) (Rmx) from Spy vs Spy is also a jewel, if you like his style

of course. Dragon song is too house oriented, I mean made to hear it at home

ja ja . 7/10

Anti scores again with a wicked compilation. This is one of those CD's filled

with "Yes! I recognize this from (insert DJ name)'s set" tracks. I'd heard

most of these before but having them altogether on this comp is a treat. The

Atmos remix of "Statistic" is an absolute killer. This one has blown up

dancefloors everytime I've seen it played (and is that an Ice-T sample in

there?). Peak Pilots is another fave. It's chugs along with loads of energy.

Even so, nothing touches XV Kilist's "Gurgel." This one builds, bends, breaks,

twists, turns -- really a massive track that shows exactly what's right with

trance today. There are a couple mediocre tracks, but the stomers on the album

more than make up for it. Lots of quality here...8/10

[Guest Mascok]

very wicked and quality psychedelic trance. great combination of tracks. really

good tracks here like: Xv kilist and Peak pilots, Dragon and this Bumbling

loons vs planet B.E.N and bigwigs tracks as well!. kick ass compilation in two

words. if you like the more scary, wicked and heavy side in psychedelic trance

then just go and buy it. lots of quality out here. mitzi meow! 9/10.

Sounds like Flying Rhino to me but it's very good. My favorites on this album

are XV Kilist, Dragon, Bumbling Loons vs Planet BEN and Quixotic. Especially

the Quixotic track kicks major ass. It sounds a bit like the old

Quirk....awesome. 6/10

[Guest janr[at]adam.com[dot]au]

The Lp only has 4 tracks. Of them 2 are wicked. Quixotic : spy vs fly.. I will

always play this tracks, so fuckin powerful. Bigwigs : cori loka is also very

good.

I've got also the LP only, but - hehe:) - I prefer second two tracks:

X.V.Kilist, it's pretty morning energy, and Bumbling Loons Vs Planet Ben -

excellent track full of cosmic sounds, but with a little bit noisy bassline.

Never was able to get into it, especially with only 4 tracks out of 8 on the vinyl :|

[Guest frequenchy[at]hotmail[dot]com]

A very good comp. with very good sounds.All the tracks kill but my favourite is

[freak51]

Those who were mentioning Flying Rhino above, good call - this sounds very much

like the 6th and 7th Flight comps.

A very 'me too' sort of comp, lots of good sounds you've heard before. Still,

I wouldn't take it out of a friend's stereo if he were playing it. 6/10.

i tell you the sence of the name XV Kilist...

XV ist another word for DJ .. he dont want to call himself DJ :-)))

Kilist = hes real name ist Kilian. thats the reason for this strange name *g

[Guest pikok]

BIGWIGS RULES!!! the córki lota track is the big abstract step in to the next

century of trance! that guys rock!

modern, dark, minimal and INTELLIGENT!!! 100/10

[Guest ir0nm0nk3y]

I have yet to be disappointed with a release from Spiral Trax. I've had this

one for a while and it is fantastic. BigWigs - Corki Lota is one of the

finest tracks I have ever heard. Worth it for that track alone and yet you

also get Quixotic, Dragon, Bumbling Loons vs Planet B.E.N. A must for anyone

that hasn't restricted themselves to fading memories of early psytrance.

Good compilation, It is minimalistic but in fact very good concept. The

highlights are 1,4,6,7,8..

6.5/10
