Jeto Posted November 13, 2000 Share Posted November 13, 2000 Toï Doï - Technological Artist: Toï Doï Title: Technological Label: Avatar Date: 2000 Track listing: 01. Star Shoot Trippers 02. D'Eden Space 03. Replicant 04. Enfants Sacrés 05. Ze Cosmos Trips 06. Spiraldive 07. Nuage D'Encens 08. Updays 09. D Liss Review: Ok.. A long awaited album finally released...on Avatar Records.. 1st track starts of with a sample similar to dancing galaxy by astral projection.. into a typical kickdrum... very hypnotic.. samples of voices very muffled or something of this sort... no breaks in this one..2nd track sounds very much like Paranoic Sensation - Matrix (Rmx).. in my opinion... very nice kickdrum and cruncy sounds everywhere...It gets REALLY twisted after a while... One of my Fav tracks of this year...very psychedelic..3rd track was just crazy...all building up to something... 4th track sounds kind of old school a bit.. has some nice samples... nice one... 5th one has some nice sounds... but kinda bored me...6th one is another one of my favorites.. the intro is just too great...very dancy... GREAT ONE...7th one has a very funky slapy kind of bass... some vocal samples... everything making sense in the end kind of track with key changes etc...8th track is quite old school sounding... and the closing track 9 is very hard kickdrum... the whole song is kind of minimal and hard...I would say this album has some nice songs... specially #2 #4 and #6 !!!!! 9/10!

mars Posted November 14, 2000 Share Posted November 14, 2000 Very oldschool very psychedelic trance. The album is a bit all the same. Globally worth buying if you like fullon psy music. 7/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sadhu Posted November 19, 2000 Share Posted November 19, 2000 I sat down to ear this album for the first time but i couldn´t stay seated for a long time. Gilles Coia made me jump from the sofa and start jumping around for 79 min. Such power and strenght in his music...MAN!!! Then when I started to breath normaly again I gave it a second listen and I was blown away, especialy with "Nuage d'encens" and "Up Days". These two tracks have such twisted melodies, that punish your brain without any kind of compassion...yes, this is the kind of headache i like. Very strong competitor to album of the year! 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AtomicCow Posted January 17, 2001 Share Posted January 17, 2001 I like this album. It's very energetic and has a bit of an oldschool feel to it sometimes. I think that in the middle of all this minimalism it's a good sign. At first the tracks sound very complicated but later you realize that there aren't many layers to it and the melodies are fairly simple and repetitive...it's just all very well concealed. Track 2 really gripped me at first..the sound effect in the beginning blends really well with the bass and then that haunting sound. I didn't give the rest of the tracks a good enough listen to judge them individually...so I just have a very general impression of this album for now.

Guest front[at]netc[dot]pt Posted January 24, 2001 Share Posted January 24, 2001 MAN!!! I think I'm going to need PROFESSIONAL HELP after two or three weeks of listening to TOÏ DOÏ. Where did this guy found inspiration to create such music? He must have spent some time in a mental institution! 11/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest smokeBuddha Posted February 9, 2001 Share Posted February 9, 2001 This is a pretty damn good album. Best thing is that it combines newer stuff with a really old school feel. I love it. Very psychedelic and highly recommended. 9/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Slidingtrancer Posted March 10, 2001 Share Posted March 10, 2001 This must be one of the best cd's I own(and i have a lot). i first felt a little dissapointment at the minimalistic bassline, but soon even they worked for me. I think this is one of the best releases of 2000. Even if you don't like his 'sound', there is pure nostalgia and beauty in this one!. It's nice to see some oldschool goa comin' back with some new elements. Track 2 and 3 aren't that great and maybe a bit repetetive, but from 4 on this will make you dance AND enjoy :-) I especially like song 8- Updays, which has some nice vox and strings in it. This album is surely enjoyable and that's why i give it a 8.5/10 ( i degraded some because of the first 3 trax) :-) BoM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest goapsytrance[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted April 3, 2001 Share Posted April 3, 2001 I can FEEL my brain twistiiiiinnnnnnnnnggggggggg? This album is really good, very very psychedelic, a delicious blend of oldschool and newschool. Each individual layer of sound is quite simple, but there are so many of them and they change so often that it adds up to complex, full-on psychedelia. While it is true that the songs sound similar to each other, the album is still definitely worth buying. Best tracks are 6, 7, 8, all good on the dancefloor. Keep it coming Gilles! 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chai Whaller Posted April 3, 2001 Share Posted April 3, 2001 Absolutly wicked-now you know what those monster tracks Goa-Gil was belting out of his D-8s. Warning if you dont get it the first time its going to snap your neck the second and not recommended for minimalist listening poofs.More Alien noises than Tim Shuldt put together.

Guest o ho ho ho ... Posted April 12, 2001 Share Posted April 12, 2001 good stuff, i'm not sure how to classify it but if you are open minded you will love it, on the surface it sounds extremely simplistic but funky, on the inside (after a little while) its almost as good as Infeced, Astral or Hallucinogen - my favorite artists )) 8/10 at least!

Guest mikkolahti[at]yahoo[dot]com Posted June 7, 2001 Share Posted June 7, 2001 WOW WOW WOW! what more can I say? Definetly one of my best albums ever! Truly magical and intensive music! All tracks are VERY good. track 1 is a bit repeative but exellent also. I´m amazed... Thank you Toï Doï! =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest agibson684[at]earthlink[dot]net Posted June 20, 2001 Share Posted June 20, 2001 It's been so much fun experiencing each one of these tracks. This album presents a perfect combination of driving rhythm and psychedelia. Each track seems to be peak time material and undoubtedly should place you in groove nirvana. Toi Doi definitely has his mind in the correct place for wanting to move people. There is no deviation from his formula. I find this an essential release and have already inducted it into my personal trance Hall of Fame for being so true to Psy-Trance and delivering to me an ear to ear grin at each listen. With much love, respect and apreciation for Toi Doi's work I must say 'Namaste'. Epitome of Dance Trance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest -Shroom- Posted July 9, 2001 Share Posted July 9, 2001 THIS GUY IS AMAZING!!! You cant imagine how long i waited for this album to come out!! When it finally came out i was so dissapointed...NOT!!! This cd was beyond of what i thought!! When i came from a party, i started to hear the cd, even i was so tired, i fuckin started to dance!! and when i got to track 7 (Nuage D'Ecens) my heart started to pound so hard, i thought i cant breath!!! this track is simply Crazy Wicked PSYCHEDELICA!!! after that track i couldn't even listen to the tracks after that one. I was shocked. i will give it 100/10. this is such a good cd! i would buy it even if it was just a 2 tracks in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoebis Posted July 28, 2001 Share Posted July 28, 2001 I wrote a review here long time ago but it dissapeared!? Anyway, let's say it again, this is the definition of trance...
