DeathPosture Posted September 7, 2000 Posted September 7, 2000 Process - One Drop Or Two? Artist: Process Title: One Drop Or Two? Label: Creamcrop Date: 2000 Track listing: 01. 01'45" Intro 02. 06'44" Oktober Revolution 03. 06'26" Terrorist 04. 08'24" Prismatic 05. 07'11" Psychobabble 06. 07'41" Mono Klang 07. 06'25" Quality Solids 08. 07'07" Maharishi 09. 08'23" Blue Moonies Review: Process is Benji Vaughan and Sean Williams and they're among the veterans of psytrance. They've been signed to such labels as Flying Rhino, Tip, Matsuri and Transient. This new album is fairly good and offers good, quality British psytrance. My personal favourites are Oktober Revolution and Psychobabble (Hint: Killer-melody!!), but I generally look upon this album as an entity and the tracks blends beautifully into each other. The style can't really easily be categorised. At times it's dark, moody and minimalistic, but then there's full-on stomping, psychedelic moments as well. All in all, this is good without being anything special. Rating: 7,4/10 Bom shankar! Quote
Guest 2 drops enough for now Posted September 7, 2000 Posted September 7, 2000 Great album with some fresh sounds. You may already have t5 and t9. Fresh sounds and undefinable tracks that are neither night or day. tx 2,6,7,8 my faves of the new cuts Quote
Guest [Anonymous] Posted September 8, 2000 Posted September 8, 2000 i like this, too. reminds me a little of of tristan. the tracks are developing slowly, and are built more around funny noises than melodies, but this is more minimal and funky than tristan. still, lots of stuff, you will only discover about the third time around. 63 points and two squares.

Guest Antic Posted October 22, 2000 Posted October 22, 2000 "...By every thought, word and action every individual is setting forth influence on its surroundings. And this influence is not restricted to any boundaries. It goes on and on and reaches every level of creation..." And so is this AWESOME ALBUM!!! Before it I just heard couple of their tracks and they were all good - always innovative, with crazy ideas and fresh sounds. As Deathposture said, their style can't really be categorised, but surely it's a great one! They mix everything what is good in today's psy-trance - lots of acid sounds, tomping and bending basses, hard kicks and broken rhythms, lots of weird fx, scratchy noises and atmospheric synth lines. One could wonder why it is so special then? Because the music here is so emotional and full of feelings! First half of the CD is hard: Oktober Revolution has this outdoor-dry sound (which is always very nice) and some fine acid twisting in the end. Terrorist and Prismatic are dark, very dark in fact. I think that Prismatic is the kind of track, about which Children would say "the only Bad Track is Track 4." (no offense man! ) because it's very strange and noisy. That's why I like it! Psychobabble is the first and really the last track with melody. Great bass in second part too. Mono Klang is one of the saddest psy-trance tunes I heard but at the same time it's so beautiful it hurts... Then Quality Solids is kinda jazzy with cool guitar samples and Blue Moonies (wonderful bass in first minute) is funky. Worth mentioning are beautiful synths parts in Mono Klang (from 3+ mins., reminds Sandman a little) and in Maharishi (I also love this voice sample at 4.49+ quoted above). Best tracks? I think they all are great, though Maharishi seams to be the most appealing at the moment!!! The only drawback is that this album is too short ? only 61 minutes! They could easily fit two more tracks there, buuuuuu? BUY IT NOW!!! Quote
Guest Dandoo Forest Posted October 23, 2000 Posted October 23, 2000 process it's a great gruope very they own styl very funky and genius dark psy:)) Quote

Guest waater[at]dqc[dot]org Posted March 14, 2001 Posted March 14, 2001 the world according to process...that is all i have to say -waater~ Quote
Guest nope Posted April 1, 2001 Posted April 1, 2001 This album is awesome. I've been looking a long time for something like this. It's hard to describe the sound but it's like a mix between Kraftwerk, Texas faggot, Ka-sol, psyharmonic sounds and funk music. Buy this album now if you'd like to free yourself from the usual boring psytrance sounds 10/10 Quote
Guest slinker Posted April 12, 2001 Posted April 12, 2001 This album is so good it made me gasp and shake my head in disbelief...it took me a while to track it down but its really Really worth it...wow! funky/ acid/ FX Galore/ Strangly Melodious/ 9.8/10 a real trip! =^,^= Quote
Guest TRISTAN Posted May 17, 2001 Posted May 17, 2001 Blue Moonies is the best track I've ever heard. Quote
Guest the dank man Posted August 15, 2001 Posted August 15, 2001 Good! Made me wanna dance like a liquid robot. This guy was on acid making hte album Quote
Guest thedankman[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted August 15, 2001 Posted August 15, 2001 nope's review above is right on target: this is like a mix betw. Kraftwerk and Texas Faggott. Right on! couldn't have described it better. Quote
Guest -Suamipoeka- Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Didn't get it after couple of listenings, but now I'm truly lost in the psychedelic world of process.. heehee.. Great album with, umm, dark-trippy-minimalistic-techtrance tracks on it.. or something.. like the dank man said, this one "makes you dance like a liguid robot..", track 4: Prismatic for example.. which is one of my favourites.. and 1, 5, 6, and 9, which is great ending track for this cd, are also brilliant.. oh, and I just love those electric-basslines.. Bzzzz.. Quote
Guest russ Posted February 24, 2002 Posted February 24, 2002 one of the top5 trance albums ever made. most trance is pseudo-psychedelic, bu this is full on true psychedelia in the most twisted and beautiful and mind-spinning way. this album is ASTONISHING perfection. (however, the two Tipworld songs don't seem to match the rest of the album imho. methinks perhaps benji had more of a hand in these ones and sean the upper hand in the others. from listening to prometheus compared to process, it seems benji is more into music, while sean is more into mental sound constructions, as am i) Quote
Guest psychodad Posted March 14, 2002 Posted March 14, 2002 Oh, yeah! I just bought this cd (from psyshop) and its great! It does not suffer from the "overpolished feel" that I think many new albums does. Sound like benji and sean had alot of fun making this thing. Quote
Guest sourcepan72[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted April 5, 2002 Posted April 5, 2002 one of the best trance albums ever.mono klang brings tears to my eyes.my sound system doesn't go loud enough for this cd....people will still be listening to this album in years to come when many other current releases have gone to landfill.don't miss out on your copy!easily 10/10.........thank you so much process ,i've had many special times to these tracks.... Quote
Guest earthborn44[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted August 5, 2002 Posted August 5, 2002 Hehehe at the end of mono klang there's a sound that remembers me jean michell jarre. Very nice psychedelia, slow, deep,organic, noisy, not comercial sound. Forest trance. Quote
implant Posted August 11, 2002 Posted August 11, 2002 LAst track....very oldskool..very good...))) Quote
Guest Davidtolsn Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 I don't like this cd, and fail to understand why others like it so much. I like many process songs, but most of the tracks on here are average or bad, the only one I really like is Oktober Revoltuion, and 5-6 are also ok. Other than that it doesn't even make good background music. 4/10 Quote
Guest Alien Posted May 28, 2003 Posted May 28, 2003 a drop in each ear, sums this up. eargasmic and so tallented. Just wish that all trance artistscould produce quality albums with diversity as this one.10/10 Quote
abasio Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 This album for me was just so acidic! It almost hurt when I listened to it on headphones some of the sounds were that raw. I like it on speakers a lot though Quote
FTP Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 I can't understand anyone who gave less than 10/10. Even today psytrance can't match the production and variance made by these guys. And the trick is? Pact with some very badass Demon??? Well, the price was paid and the souls are lost, but the higher definition of sound got defined, so definitely a good deal. Quote
healium Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Sometimes I can't get into this album at all, but a couple of the times I could I was swearing it was like the finest psychedelic trance I'd heard! I think this one requires very active/focused listening, preferably on a good system and in a spacy state of mind... Mono Klang and Terrorist are killer... The music has a very cold minimalist quality to it, it's very clean and reserved or something, so I had a hard time warming up to it at first... Very complex and intelligent music... Quote
yerg Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Mmmm. Very tasty album. Just the way i like, progressive sound in its finest form. The other good thing that it sounds very different from the rest and takes a special place in my mind. Already listened to it about 20 times (and i got the possibilty just this summer) and will return any time i want something special. Quote
