Guest Gustav Posted August 5, 2000 Posted August 5, 2000 Dreamweaver - Lord Of Illusions Artist: Dreamweaver Title: Lord Of Illusions Label: Tsunami Date: 1997 Track listing: 01. 07'37" Stargazers Secrets 02. 05'35" Lord Of Illusions 03. 07'01" Vishnu 04. 07'28" Spectre 05. 08'01" Messengers From The Sky 06. 06'58" Origin Unknown Review: Yes, I really like this oldschool-styled album! It's coming from a - for me unknown - swede, J Granlund. Full-on stompers with bouncy basses and twisted melodies. Maybe the production isn't the best - the studio seems like it would need to get extended, because many of the tracks sound too alike. But, this is definately something worth checking out. Quote
Guest Goa Sage Posted August 20, 2000 Posted August 20, 2000 Don't be fooled by the positive review above. This record becomes boring after the first time you've heard it. Too melodic and happy, with old, worn-out sounds and an absolute lack of variation. Perhaps this album would've been cool in the late 80's, but now?!!? The album itself is too short (only 43 minutes) and is definitely NOT worth the money! I don't recommend you to buy this one! Quote
Guest Gustav Posted August 29, 2000 Posted August 29, 2000 I've changed my mind after a couple of more listenings. Yes, it does get a little boring after some time; with the a little too happy melodies and the usage of the very same instruments. One or two tracks however, are pretty ok. Quote
Guest ArchNemesis Posted January 3, 2001 Posted January 3, 2001 its pretty good though, still, but even i must admit that i dont really listen to it. Mostly the Lord of Illusions track. and thats pretty much it. Quote
Guest lucidd[at]kolmio[dot]org Posted October 10, 2001 Posted October 10, 2001 very boring indeed... for the first time it sounded ok, but (as someone already said) the second time was painful... too basic. but i love the blade runner - vocals on "messenger from the sky" Quote
Guest poto Posted February 17, 2002 Posted February 17, 2002 i like it....i dont know..its sound good Quote
Guest sofiag79[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted March 11, 2002 Posted March 11, 2002 Sorry; "not my cup off tea" But if you see this Jim, keep up the spirit and say hello to Linda! (If you like this record I can inform y that he have released one more before this one, but can't remember the name off it) Quote
Guest [Anonymous] Posted May 29, 2002 Posted May 29, 2002 hmmmmmmm... astral projection kinda style... old... Quote
spannungsbogen Posted July 29, 2002 Posted July 29, 2002 Well this 48 min long melodic stuff is CERTAINLY less boring and painful as 80 min long minimal shit! Really nice stuff. Really good melodic, reminds me of Pleiadians style! Worth thousand minimal album to my melodic ear! I just want more now! Quote
Urban Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Vishnu is such a great track. There is a nice short but very memorable returning melody throughout the track. I love it. The background melody and the swirling sounds makes this track very psychedelic. The album as a whole is not that strong but this particular track must be heard by all oldschool goa lovers. Quote
Trance2MoveU Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 Yeah I don't believe this to have aged so well. Not so much the sounds, but the lack of ideas in which to take the tracks. He seemed to find one lane and stayed on it. Quote
