Review:

 

DJ Gidi gives us his second release - New Frontiers. The first one - Voojoo

Rituals, was

an excellent compilation of party hits and dancefloor tunes, Israeli full on at

its best. The second one is no less, but this time, he explores a slightly

different direction. He's hosting a lot of new artists,

collaborating with some, switching between powerful night music, and groovy

techno realms, and even flying to Scando land. Lets dive in to see what we

find along the way -

(T1)Psycraft open the disc with a very impressive track. They have really gone

places musically since their album on Hommega earlier this year. 'Westside' is

a great morning track, and one of the best they have done yet -

upward and onwards!

(T2) Alien Project is next with the first of 3 collaborations from Gidi. This

is my favourite on the CD-

Powerful night music, somewhere between Astral Projection and Domestic, a full

on piece that will send people flying all over the dancefloor. And oh, that

buildup rocks!

(T3) Next up, Boiling Point, the first of a string of new artists on this CD,

gives us 'Tennis Bahalal'. Literally meaning

Tennis in Outer space, its a scratchy-catchy full power night tune with lots of

fx jumping around in your stereo. Nice one.

(T4) Lish, who've frequented most of the USTA compilations this year, as well

as Top 10's of DJ's around the world, give us yet another taste of their

Israeli Swedish sound.'Green Show'is an excellent track. I think these two

Bat-yamins are very talented and we have a lot to wait for,with their album

still due on USTA.

(T5) Inoxia - Deceiver, serves up a stomping night tune. This is the point

where the cd changes from the full on to the

more bouncy hard technoidic sounds. It starts off well, but gets lots half way

through. The result is an OK track, which I can see working in parties, but as

a track alone fails to hit the spot.

(T6) Gidi has served up 5 Israeli smashers, and now he decides to leave sunny

Israel and visit the Scando frontiers - Human blue with a caressing hypnotic

track, serving as a soothing interval between the karahana. Amazing early

morning tune, my second favorite here!

(T7) Back to the Holyland, Gidi has a serious encounter with Yuli Fershat,

doing exactly what Mr. BLT does best -

making your butt groove! This track is like going to electronic disneyland with

lots of jumping up and down on those rides, with BLT and Gidi controlling

transmission - enjoy yourself, but watch for those turns!

(T PPS Project, another new act from Israel, collaborates with Gidi in the last

of the three tracks he is involved with on the disc.

A full on technoidic track.I like it.

(T9) Sesto Sento are Matan, Aviram, and Itai, three young guys from Afula,

Israel. The Cd closes with the beautiful morningpeice 'soap bubbles',

a full on emotional track sure to send people flying in the mornings.Itai first

played it to me in the summer, and I've been enjoying it ever since. Theres a

lot to wait for from these guys,I can promise that to you all!

Bottomline : A very good listening experience. The CD does not really find New

Frontiers in Trance, but it gives us an excellent taste of music from a

talented lot of new artists. Nice one Gidi!!

Favourites - (1!), (2!!), 4, 6(!), 7, (9!)

I only have noticed 4 tracks on this compilation.The best song for me comes

from the new artists Sesto Sento, very promising at listening this first

release. The other good stuff is provided by Psycraft.

My attention goes also on Inoxia, coz Mario Garza is a mexican producer;that's

the first time i listen to some mexican production and that's not so bad.

The last interesting track is Human blue with moods.

The rest is filling. rating:5,5/10

This is a very good CD IMO. Of course Psycraft and Alien Project are good. #3

Tenis Bahalal is probably my favorite track here. Very good beat and a lot of

trippy sounds. #4 is ok, nothing special. #5 is a pretty good track from a

Mexican new comer. Actually pretty good song. #6 Human Blue doesn't disapoint.

Good stuff from them. #7 Decent BLT collaboration with DJ GIDI. OK track,

nothing too great. #8 is a kick ass track. Definitely up there with #3 as my

favorite. #9 ends the CD pretty nicely. Although I am going against popular

opinion above, I think this comp is worth getting. Pretty decent. 8/10.

Oh, USTA is becoming better and better... This cd is REALLY VERY GOOD, i cant

stop to hear it, begins with a good track from the Hom-mega artists Psycraft,

nice sound like every track of them...Alien Project continues with a typical

ALien Pro track, Israeli Style; Boiling Point is a killer underground stuff,

agressive and noisy, one of the best here... I think BLT track is the best

here so far... Yuli keeps rockin !! PPS project gives a very good colaboration

here, this track is Psychedelic and headbanging!! Sesto sento is the big

surprise, superbous music, Israeli style too, nice melodies!! DJ Gidi strikes

again!! 8/10
