Guest Dr G Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 My opinion is that this is a great album and one of the few releases today to deserve the title of "Goa". The production is extremely good and sounds fantastic on a good sound system; clearly a lot of effort was put in. Talamasca is melodic and uplifting without becoming cheesy, and has that important element of mystery, ethereality and otherworldliness that is missing from a great deal of current trance which regularly sounds very like techno. Some people may find this continuation of the "goa spirit" to be too contrived, but contrived or not, it is a welcome respite from the hard metronomic beats and lack of melody that is all too common in 2002. It is inevitable that any cultural movement goes through a number of typical shifts: an initial period of establishment during which genre characteristics are laid down which are typically energetic, unapologetic and excited; a cool-off plateau period during which those characteristics are refined, honed and expanded; and finally a decadent period during which the scene fragments, moves in other directions, becomes unrecognisable, typically characterised by a more sardonic tone and infighting. In this "decadent" period, which is not to say "bad" period, it is good to hear some artists maintaining a clear link to the original spirit and manifesting that link in new and interesting ways. I have been wondering of late whether the very word "Goa" explains some of the positivity, not to mention trippiness, of the original Goa trance sound. In other words, does the movement away from a beautiful "Third World" location with a long "spiritual" tradition, and all the politics of post-colonialism that goes with that, not explain why the sound now is much harder, more city-influenced? I've also been wondering whether the harder sounds (whether they be minimalist, tech-trance, terror-trance, full-on, or whatever) result from an aversion to the triple mozarella dished out by the Euro-hordes; or is there a deeper anger, drug or spiritual malaise happening here? Whatever the case, this is an absolutely brilliant album that is not overrated at all. 1010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Cocco Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I miss THIS Talamasca. Whatever happened to THIS Talamasca? This album is so creative, catchy, and fun! Great for dancing and home listening. Enjoy this thing here https://youtu.be/v3Xv4WdWGEE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
