Messiah - Reincarnation Of The Mysterious

[Guest Kindgok]

I never understood how Messiah could get away with having that name. I mean,

it's taken already. Doesn't anyone remember "21st Century Jesus?" What's

next -- psy producers named Altern 8? -- kingdok

Messiah - Reincarnation Of The Mysterious

 

 

Artist: Messiah

Title: Reincarnation Of The Mysterious

Label: Phantasm

Date: 1998

 

Track listing:

 

01. Reincarnation Of The Mysterious

02. Drum Of The Temple

 

Review:

 

The first track opens with some freaky effects and melodies, building tension

like a vice on your brain. the bass is warm, the percussion smooth, and the

transitions graceful. there are two big breaks, both great. an old school

classic!

 

drum of the temple has a slow shuffle beat but is very psychedelic. i like some

chill music but this just irritates me after a while. the melodic progression

is very nice, but the beat becomes too monotonous.

 

this 12" is worth the purchase for the first song. produced by mino.

Like the Son of God's going to sue for copyright infringement. On the other

hand, if I were Ralph P. Rupert (or whoever runs the Messiah franchise now)

I'd be all over that. -- kingdok

Never heard of this gentleman. The title track is a frenetic bit of scratchy goa that appeals to me. The break is good and it reorganizes for another go. The synth lick in Drums of the Temple is mysterious. See what I did there? But, and call me out on this one, shouldn't a track with drums in the title have a wee bit more than a kick drum? We get some more percussion at the 6 minute mark, but that repetitive synth riff and heavy exhalation wore me out.

 

I'm tired.
