Guest goastomp9 Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 i always liked 1.3 crumbs by gms... never really checked them out till i saw them at synthetic sadhus and was completely blown away by their set...5 minutes later my girlfriend i bought the new cd in the chill out area...probably one of the best purchases we've made in a while...i'd have to say that gladiator and at the end of a rainbow are my favorite tracks...i really like juice by gms as well...great cd...10/10!!!

Guest will Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 GMS always guarantee high quality production and you know you can relax and leave the CD in until the end without having to get up and skip some awful track. Indeed this CD follows a typical GMS sound but more psychedelic / epic. Better than the Growly Family. GMS were always the sample kings with some excellent samples included in this CD. "At the end of the rainbow" with wonderful etheral chorus samples and the excellent "Gladiator" with that wonderful ancient singing from the movie and various samples, excellent swirling arpeggiator. It is always appreciated a good movie tribute track. Samples have been criticised on this board but when used correctly they can enhance a track and assist with identification. Although yes, when obvious samples are used such as the matrix samples they can wreck a track. It is always a rush to watch an obscure manga video and hear a sample used. So artists, please be creative and not obvious. Favourites : Gladiator, Zak & Kracht, At the end of the rainbow. Juice by GMS (with retro sounds) :- 4 good tracks on 1 CD, that is pretty good in these times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest templar[at]psytrance[dot]pl Posted July 27, 2002 Share Posted July 27, 2002 I do't understand all of the people complainig about the artists, espacially GMS. I must say that altohugh this album is not as outstanding as many of my other favourites (i.e. the very perfect "Twisted" from mr Simon Halluciogenius...), still it is by far the best I've heard from GMS uptill now(lets' omit the good stuff by 1200 Mics). This CD works both on dancefloor, giving the people some really full-on stompin' experiences, and at home (I also suggest to play it while driving a car... ;]). Get it ad You probably wo't be dissapoited. For GMS fans a must-have... I wonn't go into details about the tracks - check them out 4 yourself... Best tracks - Spliffpolitics and my beloved Juice By GMS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Onyxura Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 Really enjoyable album, this... GMS delivers the goods as usual. Not especially much new in here, perhaps a tad more melodies tha earlier. Track no.7 and track no.8 are my favourites, but there are no really bad tracks in here. 8/10 bom!

Guest Goa Spirit Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 jeez, i didnt buy this one for a while because of negative reviews.. but i am sure glad i have this one now... gms has delivered a really good album, amazing production and nice sounding tracks... love at the end of a rainbow, especially after that break where the growly bass comes in, cool visualization sounds in that one.. the whole album is amazingly produced and very dj friendly, this is one on which a dj can really tweak the eqs, so good fun; awesome at times; beautifully mastered and prduced; and luckily no ear damaging sqeaks which is what usually annoys me with gms... in short a really good album, maybe not very experimental, but hey why fix something when it ain't broke,, go listen to zorba or 1200 mics if you want different style gms... cheers rate this one very high.......

seraph Posted September 24, 2002 Share Posted September 24, 2002 Very Good psychedelic album...Yes, they do tend to use the same sounds and rhythms but they are managing pretty well whole their discography actually...This album is catchy, crazy, lunatic and druggish like all stuff from GMS anyway...best on album : GLADIATOR, I'M ON MARS, HYPERACTIVE, AT THE END OF THE RAINBOW and JUICE ( Where main theme from REQUIEM FOR A DREAM was used, amazing work )...So all in all pretty good : 7.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guddo Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 So this is the first album from GMS which i listened to. And I really liked it. I was listening to it in my room and started dancing. All the sounds are killers and can make you dance! Spliffpolitics and at the end of a rainbow is something veryyy beautiful. I've heard them also in destination goa, but i don't think that they're the same! I give this a 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dark Light Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Spliffpolitics is the most played track in my sets.. all the others in the cd are **** {don't want to piss here} rating : 7.5/10 . PS. older stuffs from GMS much MORE killers ! And I`m still disappointed from the stupid "Hits cd" from them ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trance2MoveU Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Artist: GMS Title: No Rules Label: Spirit Zone Recordings Date: May, 2002 01. Life After02. Gladiator03. No Rules04. I'm On Mars05. Hyperactive06. At The End Of A Rainbow07. Spliffpolitics08. Juice by GMS09. Overdose "Well don't worry things hardly ever f*ck up around here." No Rules? Really. None? Gotta have some rules. Let's start with no sleeping with your sister. Otherwise you get kids that look like this: Holy sh*t! That's gotta be photoshopped. That is either the worst case of hydrocephalus or the character that got cut out of the Simpsons with the...you know they had big brains...telekinesis. Ah, you had to be there. Some people argue that GMS hasn't evolved and their sound is virtually the same. Not me. I would argue that it has gotten progressively worse and is directly proportional to the amount of f*cks they give. I mean it's up to about 9.5 on the eye roll scale isn't it? As they have gotten on in years their sound has become predictable and non challenging. But that's not how they always were. The first two albums were pretty psychedelic and worth your time. As the years went on and they fully embraced their full-on sound they became parodies of themselves. To the point that their sound was done better then they did it. This album is now 14 years old and back then minimal was on the way out so the masses were poised for an album to explode onto the scene. And this one did. When I came back to it and I heard Life After and its infectious groove I was dancing in my chair. Maybe this album was more awesome than I remembered. But then something happened that always happens when listening to a GMS album. I got bored with it. Really quickly. Now if I'm being honest the acid in At The End of a Rainbow is still appealing and Spliffpolitics annoyed the sh*t outta me. Aside from the first track the rest were just...meh. So unfortunately they didn't continue their streak of good albums. Matter of fact this may be the exact moment...the precise album where GMS began their descent into irrelevance. Damning physical evidence. Can I get a courtesy flush? Damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
