radi6404 Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 I notice dthat the psychedelic shpongle tracks, there aren´t that much out there sound more like other psychedelic trance from the melodies as to hallucinogen. I am talking about tracks like "dorset perception, vapour of rumours, shpongleyes, monsterhit and some others. They have the hallucinogenic sound, yeah but they also remind me more of astral projection, some melodies are even close to astral, the psychedelic shpongletracks are ofcourse better than astral projection but they remind me of them. I even find them more psychedelic than hallucinogen, that doesn´t mean they are better, hallucinogen has other elements which are missing in shpongle but shpongle is a bit more psychedelic for me.

snowball Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 you lost me here...is it more psy or more trancey??? Quote
phobium Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 As a d'n'b MC once said ... More techno than techno! So we can say : More trance than trance! Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 i dont know what this is about, but I guess its about something that has to do with oldschool and goa... and also maybe chill and psy?...... Quote
alleycat Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 well I was bored when I saw Hallucinogen. And bored when he played a Shpongle dj set. And you, Radi, have never seen me live so how can you know Im boring? Im not being rude, simply stating my opinion formed from experience. Quote
abasio Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 The 1st shpongle album is the most entrancing IMO followed by Twisted! The 2nd Shpongle is the most fun though Quote
JackCheese Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 In what possible way do certain Shpongle tracks resemble Asstral Projection? Explain! "Samples or stfu!" Quote
radi6404 Posted December 3, 2006 Author Posted December 3, 2006 In what possible way do certain Shpongle tracks resemble Asstral Projection? Explain! "Samples or stfu!" 655812[/snapback] some melodies are pretty similar IMO, they give the same feelings than some astral projection tracks. Quote
AkumaSama Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 I do think hallucinogen becames a little boring. I loved Twisted but after many listen the lone geranger was not interesting. shpongle got more litening from I and is deeper? Quote
Tatsu Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 But how can one compare the 2? 656387[/snapback] I'm asking myself the same question... I mean one is ambient and one is psy? Sure there are similarities since Simon has his own style but close to Astral Projection?! Oh and btw, I'll delete all the off-topic comments in that thread, please behave people! Quote
Ov3rdos3 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Shpongle and Hallucinogen both suck equally. Psytrance is SO last year... maybe try listening to some real music Radi. Might actually help turn you into a real person. Quote

Oh and btw, I'll delete all the off-topic comments in that thread, please behave people! 656408[/snapback] i tdoesn´t matter if the one is ambient and the other one psytrance, i am talking about the melodies, i find some shpongle tracks very melodic, the ones i called there, hallucinogen is also melodic but in another way, shpongle altough ambient has typical psytrance melodies which are similar to astral projection IMO, i am talking about the shpongle tracks which are not worldmusic.

But maybe we both focus on different parts when listening to a track. For me personally the Shpongle tracks move me way more than AP but that's taste. Quote

NEMO.BOFH Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Oh... so we are talig about that they are both trancey! ohhhhh now I get it... still dont get the comparison... sorry you lost me radi Quote

It's pretty Samba! What's wrong with world music anyway? Quote

abasio Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 And meregue too! 656650[/snapback] It's arguably the track from shpongle I would say was most like world music. Quote
