Review:

 

New upcoming talent from Portugal deliver us funky minimal psytrance ...

extremely great for dancing , some tracks contain one of the most groovy

basslines I've ever heared ... Faktor D sure sounds fresh ... didn't realy

know what to expect from these guys because they didn't release many tracks so

this sure is a nice surprice . starts with #1 a downtempo track to get you in

the wright mood ... #2 is very pumping and nice percussion ... nice flow in

here . #3 has a jazzy mood and is very smooth ... #4 man what a funky bassline

in here , very catchy ..#5 a bit mediocre but not bad at all .. #6 this one is

more tribal .. and very kickin' .... but here it comes #7 one of the greatest

funky basslines ever made ... powerfull , fresh , clear production and

dance-friendly like hell !!! a must !!! #8 last one is chill-out , not bad ...

overall this is wicked . coverart by Loets is nice too but not his best work

imo ... my favourites are 2,3,4(!),6,7(!) and I give this project a solid 8/10

magnifico :-)

Agreed. Setsuko's review is good here. For an idea how this sounds, listen to

groups like Visual Paradox or think Atmos with bigger basslines and groove.

Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised with this one, gave it a quick listen at

www.psyshop.com and decided to order it.

And I'm glad I did. The last song on this reminded me of the soundtrack of John

Carpenters' movie, The Thing. Hehehe.. great movie, and so is this music.

Great. 8,5/10 here.
