Guest goa-head Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 Can't believe I haven't seen them mentioned more here. Almost every track they make is pure quality dark psy. The Poisonous Square especially from Tumult, their newest album. Perfect for late-night driving. Hole In The Ground is also great. The new direction of night/dark psy? Quote
dmtree Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 their compilation tracks are superior to the album, imo. the music is great, but i don't see it as a new direction - forest psy has been around for a while. Quote
reger Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 i sort of like derango, poisonous square is one of my favourites on the album. Quote
phobium Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 Great great great! One of my favorites these days. Quote
Sawfly Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 Favourite psytrance for over two years now And I don't think it's even that dark, just twisted Quote
Daze Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 Yep, I agree Space Monkey. To me most Derango tracks aren't dark at all! Quote
Sawfly Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 For some people they might be, but I now far more darker music than Derango. Of course there's a hint of darkness in the mix, but not that much.. Quote
Daze Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 Yeah and it differs from song to song too. They have made a couple of songs that I would file under dark-psy without hesitating, while most of their stuff is just twisted, weird and funky Quote
Narr Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 I think they`ve been mentioned plenty. And rightfully so masterdamnit !! My favorites along with Ka-sol , Quasar and Procs Quote
seraph Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Can't believe I haven't seen them mentioned more here. 505099[/snapback] Not mentioned more here ? It has been praised for months here already, plus you have a review in review section where you could have checked it out... Quote
Drosophila Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 Great music! Swedish forest fruit salat, with twistosauce Damn I feel wierd this morning Yep, I agree Space Monkey. To me most Derango tracks aren't dark at all! 505274[/snapback] Dark in a bright way, hehe Quote
Sawfly Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 I hope Jens would make more Puro tracks, those were great, especially Derango Tango Quote

The new direction of night/dark psy? 505099[/snapback] hmmm well don't get me wrong, I liked their (his?) album a lot BUT I found that there are shitloads of better acts out there ie. Ghreg on Earth, Psykovsky, Droidlock,... and to everyone using the new "forst trance" buzzword... either someone explains me the distinctive elements allowing to recognize "forest trance" or STFU!!!

Dajek Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 I hope Jens would make more Puro tracks, those were great, especially Derango Tango 506448[/snapback] Derango Tango is the best Derango track for me, even if its not Derango. Quote
dr papa Posted April 12, 2006 Posted April 12, 2006 Damn fine stuff! I just listened to All Channels Open from the new Tumult-album. It´s been a LONG time since a psytune freaked me out that much. It reminded me of an old GMS-track, Slingshot. Only better! MUCH better! I am now officially a Derango-fan. But they still have a LONG way to go before they are as good as Simon Posford . Oh well, some day. Keep the channels open, Derango Quote
alleycat Posted April 16, 2006 Posted April 16, 2006 Ilove derango so much. I first heard them towards the beginning of 04, they posted some unreleased songs on psytrance.us (gone now), Rusakula and New Analyze, which I kind of didnt understand at the time but Ive had them a while and gave them a listen every once in a while. I do understand them now, and their album is one of my prize cds. Their style is so unique, even among other forest trance artists. Their use of off the wall basslines, out of nowhere changeups sending the mind through green dripping viney tunnels, near-confusing squish/crunchy synths... Its like art, an audio painting of a very green forest/jungle, full of little things making their little noises to create an overall symphony of natural life... I think Derango will be remembered and loved for many years to come. Forest trance, to me, is the kind of near-dark, not morning or daytime, definitely night music, but its very lighthearted, the basslines arent ominous even if they are throbbing in your soul. They synths tend to call to mind birds, squirrels, trolls, elves, things of the forest you know? Sometimes melodic, most of the time just squishy and psychedelic. Very benign feeling to a lot of it (see Wizack Twizack, Kluster), very friendly stuff. Good mushroom trance I believe. THis isnt like an official "this is Forest Trance" explaination, just my impression from what Ive heard. Check out anything on Stone Age records to get a good feel for it. To me it just screams out, "play me very loud at night deep in the forest". Quote
Narr Posted April 16, 2006 Posted April 16, 2006 Well there is one thing wrong with their album. It should be entitled Gnarled Roots instead of tumult. and dont forget, if you like Tumult, listen to Boldly Audio and Sanatonic Audio from sanaton records. Quote
Lauryn Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 Their track "An Ancient Tale" off the Ajana comp 'A Magical Journey' is one of my favorite downtempo tracks of the moment I have yet to give Tumult a proper listen...but it is in my collection... Quote
Sawfly Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 I love 'An Ancient Tale', I'd like to hear downtempo like that. I was waiting that they'd release more on the next Ajana Records comp. and 'A Magical Journey 2' is out, but no Derango Quote
Narr Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 Their track "An Ancient Tale" off the Ajana comp 'A Magical Journey' is one of my favorite downtempo tracks of the moment I have yet to give Tumult a proper listen...but it is in my collection... 512132[/snapback] Yeah I love that sound that sounds like some kind of horn or something. An opium horn... Quote
