Alright it's about time for me to dive into some new artists, so I have asked for your suggestions and I have throughly researched them and few others which I came accross on my own here is what I plan to pick up, tell me what you think...

 

1. Dark Soho - - - - - - - - - - - - Combustion

2. MFG - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - New Kind of World

3. Shipadu - - - - - - - - - - - - - The Light of Shipadu

4. Halluciongen - - - - - - - - - - In Dub

5. X-Dream - - - - - - - - - - - - - Irritant

6. Infected Mushroom - - - - - Classical Mushroom

7. GMS vs. Systemburster - - - GMS vs. Systemburster

 

So how are my selections? After I get all these I'm considering looking into some good compilations of Goa and of Ambient. Anyway tell me what you think.....now all that is left is finding a place online (preferably in the US that has these albums in stock, grrrr.

I have half of these albums. These are my opinions:

 

MFG you could probably do without, unless you're into stuff like Astral Projection and California Sunshine and need something similar, but not as good. If you're home listening, you may not have too much to grab onto.

 

Irritant is original and super-powerful (you really need a good system or good headphones to appreciate it fully, I think), but tends to be a love/hate/acquired-taste sort of thing. Either you click with it or you don't. I click with it - I love it. X-Dream uses everyone else's bass drums for percussion filler.

 

In Dub is an easy album. If you like dub, you'll like it. If you like Hallucinogen, even better. I don't, but I still like the album.

 

Classical Mushroom is a lot of fun. Very innovative and is IM at their best. A must-have.

 

I've read in the reviews that Combustion is a more versatile, if not better (?!), version of The Delta, which is really hard to believe, but if it's true, I say go for it. The Delta, of course, is known for being dark and powerful (similar to newer X-Dream). :)

that's not nice, spongled. how can you advise him albums that he won't find anywhere (namely the tip albums, the first saafi brothers [unless it is re-released by inpsyde] and moty). he will go crazy searching for those cds. and it's all your fault. shame on you.

Hey Daniel,

 

I have all these albums except for Shidapu. I think they are all excellent and very wise choices, but maybe you shoul think about X-Dream - Radio which has been re-released on Inpsyde Media Records :-)

Have fun.

Ok I've edited my lit slightly....

 

I have removed: MFG (New Kind of World)

and

I have added: Kox Box (Dragon Tales), The Infinity Project (Feeling Weird), and Juno Reactor (Bible of Dreams)

 

I'm very happy because trancetrax.com has just received a big shipment which included Infected Mushroom's (Classical Mushroom)....I have it burned but I've wanted the real thing for forever now....finally my soul can be at rest, and just to think that a new Infected Mushroom album will be out in March, yay.

 

Hey just on a tangent, does anyone have any GOOD knowledge on car stereo equipment (amps, subs, speakers, cd players...the whole package type deal....if so tell me and I'll e-mail ya with some dumb ass questions)

Well fuckidy fuck fuck fuck (pardon the language).....I've been searching for my CD's online and I can't seem to find Kox Box, The Infinity Project, Shipadu, or GMS vs. Systemburster anywhere available on U.S. based psytrance websites. Damnit.....I suppose I shall deal with just getting Juno Reactor, Dark Soho, Halluciongen, X-Drean, and Infected Mushroom for now.....damn. grrr...angry

MFG - New Kind of World is worth getting, if not now then some time later. It's Israeli trance, but it's not, in my opinion, an Astral clone. A wicked classic album, MFG's best IMHO.

 

"Kox Box, The Infinity Project" have been out of print for a long time. They are impossible to buy new anymore it would seem.

Psyfi... well maybe I should have written there that some of those are hard to get. But I think it's good for him to at least know some classic albums if he happens to run into them in some record store with used CDs or ebay........ or maybe he wants to download and see if he even likes them.

of course it's good. it was more like a joke and i just wanted to let him know that it might be very very hard to get some of these. i myself really got a bit mad over it (you know like waking up 4 in the morning and having to check if i really bid for the dragon tales double lp :) but it is sooo much fun to search for those old items and if you finally get them.. what a feeling.

 

you can find A LOt on ebay.de

Dude, I'd get Shiva Sidpao - The Album instead of Shidapu - The Light Of Shidapu... The Light is OK - one awesome song, but if you like that early, Erez Aizen style, The Album is FILLED with killers...

 

Read my review of it here!

[Available @ Psyshop.com if you dont mind shopping in Europe...]

 

Other classic albums mentioned/not mentioned that I can recommend are:

 

Man With No Name - Teleport

 

Planet BEN - Trippy Future Garden

 

X-Dream - Radio

 

TIP - Feeling Weird

 

Happy hunting Dan!... Hope to read your reviews soon in the reviews section...
