GaySatanicHippie Posted March 29, 2001 Share Posted March 29, 2001 V/A - Progopoly Artist: Various Title: Progopoly Label: Plastik Park Date: 2001 Track listing: 01. 08'18" Kilophil : Trockendockrocker 02. 08'12" Phony Orphants : Diving In The Dessert 03. 06'04" Bitmonx : Noisy 04. 09'40" Sonic Freakuency : Erastotenes 05. 08'30" Charasmatix : 23rd Century 06. 07'48" Bitmonx Vs Eargear : Monkearness 07. 06'44" Bigwigs : Vibra Fon 08. 08'42" Antix : Drift 09. 08'56" Magnetrix : Projectile Review: A very good debut Compilation from the german label Plastik Park. It starts out with Kilophil aka XV Kilist&Phillip who deliver a straight forward stomper for the dancefloor. No.2 "Diving in the desert" is one of the highlights of this Lp, typical Iboga style, dark gloomy yet "funky" at the same time. No.3 also is a killer, it sounds like Atmos with a thumping german style beat. No.4 is average, but No.5 Charismatix makes that all up with a really well produced track and cool sounds that will send a tickle down your spine, especially on a good stereo system or good headphones. No.6 is also rather boring, I prefer Bitmonx & Eargear's solo stuff. Bigwigs as usual melts my braimatter with one of the craziest tracks I have heard in a while. Bigwigs should be given an award for coming up with the craziest sounds and basslines. No.8 is average again, but No.9 Projectile is Magnetrixx best track so far, especially the first 3-4 minutes. All in all there are 3 average tracks (4,6,8) and the rest ranges from good to excellent. Definitely worth buying, especially if you wanna get to know some of the best young artists that are coming up these days. 8,5/10 Attention Vynil buyers: You can buy this compilation also on 2 double Ep's, but on Ep 1 the quality of side C which has two tracks on it is horrible. Get the Cd, those two tracks are almost unplayable on Vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Acidhive Posted April 7, 2001 Share Posted April 7, 2001 A compilation filled with dark, minimalistic, weird and groovy songs. Starts off with Kilophil and they deliver a track in the style of XV Kilist (not strange since Kilian is in this group) and it's good. Next up phoney orphants with a dark and funky track. Bitmonx follow and bring an indeed noisy song with a great groove. Sonic Freakuency is among the weirder tracks, but this one is really good! Song 5 and 6 are what you would expect. Dark and hard. Bigwigs is weirder and is pretty cool too. Last two tracks are really minimalistic and dark. Especially Magnetrix kicks ass bigtime!! Overall, this comp is really good. You have to be in the minimalistic style though, otherwise you won't dig the vibes in these songs. To me, 8,5/10 for this one. And that's a good score right? It seems like this sort of trance really does it for me..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DeeJay Jones Posted May 25, 2001 Share Posted May 25, 2001 It's a very c00l compilation ... but there is an error in tune 5 that my friend noticed when listening to it... listen between 2.07 and 2.11 in the tune .. there is a small "bump" .. or bass sound that bumps and gives the beat a hundred-of-a-second error .. My favorite is Bigwigs - Vibra Fon .. (get Tromesa's new album!!!) .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MG Posted June 23, 2001 Share Posted June 23, 2001 This CD is the best CD I've bought in a long time! Bitmonx vs. Eargear's track is the best work I have heard out of both these artists, they've found a balance that they also need to find on their own in my opinion. I listen to that track a fair bit. track five, "it's just insane" I was imitating, much to everyones distaste that opening riff for about a week. Antix rocks as well, it gives everyone from this side of the globe hope to kniow we can do it on a global scale and hold up well. Bigwigs also rock, Park Avenue isn't a s good as this CD i hope the 3rd one grows on the feeling of this compil8n. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BIO_FROG Posted July 3, 2001 Share Posted July 3, 2001 Psytrance at it's best. What else would you expect from artists like Bitmonx, XV Kilist & Tromesa (AKA Bigwigs)... BOM SHANKAR!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setsuko Posted May 9, 2003 Share Posted May 9, 2003 subtle minimalism .. phoney orphants and bigwigs are standouts , the rest is good too ... I really like this stuff , but now that Plastik Park decided to stop releasing for a while ... it's hard to satisfy my addiction completely . the compilation gets a solid 9/10 just to mention I love PP/Sunset recordings ... psy bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
