Children Posted June 30, 2000 Share Posted June 30, 2000 Digital Sun - The Spiral Of Power Artist: Digital Sun Title: The Spiral Of Power Label: Polytox Date: 1997 Track listing: 01. 10'16" Strange Things 02. 07'27" Morning Glory 03. 07'40" The Spiral Of Power 04. 09'43" Into The Sun 05. 07'34" Give Piece A Chance 06. 06'23" Men On The Moon 07. 08'05" Triptosaurus 08. 06'22" Digidub 09. 09'41" Virtual Journey Review: Pretty Good ... Tracks are well built, psychedelic And melodic enough , but it seems they don't go in a precise direction ... Indeed, there's no Bad Tracks, but most of them are a little boring ... there's no Track I really like here ... Rating : 5.5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mrsyed Posted July 1, 2000 Share Posted July 1, 2000 This is perhaps one of my favorite releases ever in the Psy Trance Genre. And it took me 3 years to realize it! I can't describe it's strange appeal to me, other than the fact it's got wonderful and powerful melodies with exemplary percussion. the only downside is that tracks ends abruptly, why I can never figure out. If it was mixed I would give it 10/10 for now it's a 9/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ceo Posted October 20, 2000 Share Posted October 20, 2000 Brilliant psy-trance cd - a real over-looked gem! Reminds me at times of Pink FLoyd...I think you'll see why as soon as you start listening. A few moments sounds a bit dated, but it still has retaind its magical soothing qualities. When R we going to see something new? It's been too long! 9/10 Perfect for the morning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChrisdeeACiD Posted February 24, 2001 Share Posted February 24, 2001 Hmm.. I seem to have some other version on LP. It's called Re-Collection and it does'nt contain track 3, 6 and 9. Instead it has 2 other tracks called "Space Flipper" and "The Attack" + that it's released in 2000 on Nova Tekk... Anyway.. This shit it simply perfect. It's my personal favorite album at the moment with some REAL goatrance and not some minimal repetetive 2000 trend shit. Great mix between Beautiful stuff (The Attack), original goa and oriental melodies (Digidub) which I love. Get this for sure. To bad my LP copy has a scratch on the "Morning Glory" track! DAMN =( anyway 9.5/10 /Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest itsi_bitsi[at]Goatrance[dot]com Posted May 18, 2001 Share Posted May 18, 2001 Ok, now I've heard two trax from their album "Re-collection". I just have to say: Pure fucking good goatrance! This is how the shit is supposed to sound!!! "The Attack" and "Strange Things"... Oh my god!! Going to by it tomorrow =) You do so too, so that they maybe can release another album.

Guest [Anonymous] Posted December 4, 2001 Share Posted December 4, 2001 i completely agree with Chrisdee and itsi bitsi. this is indeed good old goatrance , much better than that repetitive, psychedelic, minimal new stuff they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stmwho[at]mail[dot]com Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 T.R.I.P.P.Y. Oh my fucking god this is awesome!! This is the pure definition of goa. Tears in my eyes. If you don't lixe this, you don't like goa. Where can i send money? i want to invest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest claustrophobia[at]shpongle[dot]c Posted May 10, 2002 Share Posted May 10, 2002 Oh, I see I've already reviewed this one =) But I've heard all Digital Sun's trax now, and it still is amazing old school goa, with a bit lack of soundquality though. It seems like this is some old side-project by Tarsis... it feels like it's a bit commersial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stmwho[at]mail[dot]com Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 agreed, there is some lack of sound quality when listening trough speakers but.. the music is beautifull. starting from the first track, an exotic intro, you can see the sun rising.. followed up by a steady beat, then some.. ah fuck it, there must be someone better than me at describing this. we need a real review here, i am not capable. hmm the drums in traxx 1 are quite psychedelic. I lixe this stuff that slowly changes in pitch, lixe what you would do whith an acid tune, frex track 1 8:00. i would lixe to hear some recommedations from ppl that lixe this stuff just as much as i do. I rcmd cosmosis:cosmology and ofcoz Twisted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ZEN_ic Posted July 26, 2002 Share Posted July 26, 2002 Good Goa Album!!!!! less minimal please, return to 1997. BOM SHANKAR! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Davidtolsn Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 changed my mind. after having it for a while it almost never gets repeat plays. why? on the first half of the cd all the songs are good, especially 1, 2, and 4. after that they are just bad. no good melodies, ultra-repetitive... just download some of the songs on mp3, the album isn't worth it. this artist definitely has talent though. 5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trance2MoveU Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Almost playa. Almost. Oh what coulda been. Had some good goa parts, parts I really liked, but it seemed to be tarnished by the clumsy guitar leads in some tracks. Also it wasn't very deep and lacked complexity, sounding rather simple and repetitive. And what's with the animal noises? This is like taking brownies out of the oven before they're ready. Looks great on the outside, but the inside is an unfinished mess. This puppy needed more oven time. Still if I was stranded on a desert island it would be essential because the back side of the disc could be used to flag down an air rescue.
