Anoebis Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 V/A - Selected Highs Artist: Various Title: Selected Highs Label: 21-3 Date: 1998 Track listing: 01. Manmademan & Tristan : William 02. Pan : Cake 03. Tristan : Space Sage 04. Manmademan : Karmaflage 05. Funkopath : Skweel 06. Digitalis : Rapid Eye 07. Funkopath : Regenerate 08. Pan : Murphy (Mrs O'Leary's Mix) 09. Germinating Seeds of Doda : Ooh Bitchy Review: 3rd release from one of those already-dead labels. It's a cd with mixed kinds of psychedelic music... some songs are full on, others more D'n'B.Song 1 is one of the full on songs and it sounds very psychedelic with all kind of wizzy noise going through the track together with some acidic melodies. Second song is less good imo, because of 2 breaks in the track where the bassline changes and with an annoying noise. Number 3 is psychedelic Drum and Bass. Not my cup of tea at all, but I don't like D'n'B, so I can't really rate this song. The Manmademan is a beautiful morning track with an acoustic guitar and some tribal chants and fluits... Funkopath is again D'n'B, and so is Digitalis! track 7 has even an housy feeling. Pan's second track is something between D'n'B and Psy-Trance. And the cd ends with a 100% d'n'b track which sounds even commercial. So if you like Digitalus/Funkopath stuff you will probably love this cd. If you only love regular psy-trance and no d'n'b (like me) you will only like a few songs! (Luckely I bought it as a second-hand cd, so it didn't cost much)... It's get a 4/10 from me. Bom!

Guest In the cApe Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 Funkopath : Regenerate ia a absolute classic and a real gem. I play this regularly and never fails to dissappoint. This compilation is still fresh after all this time. Buy it as it diffent and yes it is pure psy. trance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
