Review:

 

I GMS collection of old, well, there are some pretty new tracks. I have heard

these tracks before and my guess is that you have that to. Maybe not all but

many. And I say as I always do about GMS releases. 'Nothing we haven't heard

from them before'. Good about this is that you get some old jewels and a

little feeling of the oldscool sound again. If that's what you seek. Best

tracks imo: 5, 6 and 8. Final Verdict: 7/10

Sacrilege!!!! I find the worst songs here to be the newer ones... I much prefer

Jaws, The Caterpillar, Do You Seek..., and Veloceraptor. Special mention must

be given to "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep", a very rare song completely

worthy of a PKD title. Also, 1.3 Crumbs is a psychedelic masterpiece with some

of the best sample work I've ever heard... alas, this is just repackaged junk

in an over-saturated market. If you own NO gms at all you might as well get

this but its pretty useless otherwise (unless you can't find the older songs,

as some are compilation-only releases, or from 12"s or mixes). They're really

milkin' the market here.

Agree with Basilisk. I've only heard a few GMS tracks from comps - never really

got into them. So I decided to get a "best of" to check them out. I'm pretty

pleased with the sound. It's nothing mind-blowing, but it does apply to

certain moods when nothing else fits. And yes, the samples on 1.3 Crumbs are

some of the best I've ever heard, and I'm not much of a sample guy. Now I can

say I'm familiar with the GMS sound. I'm not rushing out to get anything else

by them. :)

Well fuck me, this isn't what Psytrance is about! Psytrance is supposed to be

underground music isn't it? Well, making a 'hits' album.. for crying out loud,

can it get any more commercial?? Anyway, some good tracks here, but most of

'em you will already own if you like this crew. So.. total waste of money and

time here. 2/10

Nice selection of tracks here.

Not all of them are great but Jaws and Medieval Times are totally awesome!

The first one has some of the wildest 303 and the second one a final melody that sticks to your mind.

7.5/10
