Transwave - Backfire

[Chis]

Abasio, that's the first sensible post I've seen from you. I'm shocked.

 

Lets be honest: this album makes modern day full-on psy look unbelievably soulless. Production quality be damned.

[Klaxer]

But where is Rezwalker (black thunder mix) and Quasar?

[Oopie]

But where is Rezwalker (black thunder mix) and Quasar?

obviously somewhere else than in best-of compilation.

But where is Rezwalker (black thunder mix) and Quasar?

wasnt it that they couldnt find quasar on their dat, nor did anyone else had it on dat?

[Mindphilux]

seems like this easily could have been a 2 disc set. a lot of people have been questioning where other tracks are

[reger]

i guess since they wanted to introduce with their music new generation of psytrancers before release of their new album its quite rational to release only one cd, since i dont think that "youngsters" would have interest in listening to 2cd's of someones "best of". imo.

sure, then there are goa fans, for whom even 4 cd's wouldnt be enough, but i dont know if that was main target of this release, as allready mentioned, i read somewhere that backfire is like an intro for those who never heard of psytrance, sort of promotional release before their upcoming album

[Verb]

I just wish there was more vinyl releases.

[Basilisk]

I suppose I should chime in with my extensive review find it here:

[SeaFeel]

One of the best releases in 2007 for sure!!!

[Malevol3nt]

Awesome album. I never heard them before so I never heard any of the tracks from compilations. This is quality material for sure (even if it's old, but old is gold rite?) !

transwave is the shiet

[seraph]

transwave is the shiet

was

 

They make full on now, so it's not as good as before.

[reger]

ok, transwave IS the shiet as far it concerns their goa works, todays minimal dull-on shite doesnt count

[XpandoZ]

code s9 !! :wank: beautiful beautiful beautiful track

[AkumaSama]

average

 

not the best oldschool there was but quite nice.

 

I wish good oldschool acts would release albums like this

[Darkarbiter]

Hey so (after reading Basilisk's review) does that mean that transwave are making new stuff as well? I would hope so... these guys are along with the Infinity Project my favourite Goa trance project.

 

BTW I wouldn't call distance to goa 3 incredibly rare.

[mike.54]

wow one of my fav cds of this year

[Ormion]

11/10

 

Simply put it this cd is unbelievable. Anahata is one of the best tracks ever written and not just in Psytrance field. (Also one of the first Goa tracks I heard. It took me 5 years to find out that it was a Transwave one).

 

Flamycogire is... no words. Killer, real killer. It has probably the best bassline ever and amazing lines. Another track that took me years and years to find out that it's a Transwave one).

 

The rest of the tracks are all masterpieces.

[mystical dragon]

Dis is one of the best damn... transwave cd i hve heard all d tracks r such a killler.............. Cycles of life , Flamicogyre OMG dey r awsum

arsonik iz jst amazing song

 

4.6/5 :drama:

[frozen dream]

i played code s9 and cycles of life i think this weekend

[dunkey]

Good present for Transwave funs.

 

I get a big pleasure from this album, espessially from Ulysse Voyage No.2, Bombay Night, Arsonik.

[sunwolf]

I would buy this for Arsonik and Code S9 alone. Both stellar work from 1996.

 

The other best ones are Adoration To The Aum, Hypersphere and Cycles Of Life.

 

I find Bombay Night and Flamincogyre a little lacking. 5/5 for sure though.

[healium]

If you find a couple tracks "a little lacking" how could you give it a perfect score of 5/5?

[sunwolf]

Because it's one of the best. I've never heard any album where no tracks are somewhat lacking (this doesn't mean they suck, only they aren't as amazing as the others).

[healium]

Yah that's why I question anyone giving an album a perfect score - people seem to throw 5/5 and 10/10 around like it's nothing, and so a mark that high loses its significance...
