Ormion Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 They deserve it! I have THE huge respect for that label. And it's obviously why. Their profiles series. Honeslty I don't know if they make any money with all these re-releases of these old albums (for one hand they don't have to pay a new artist, but from the other they still have to pay to get the copyrights, right?) Not that I care. Thanks to them I managed to buy and listen some of the best and very rare albums, that normally I could find only in used conditions under prices I could not afford. Remastered or not I simply don't care! And the Retrodelic Vibes series? Simply awesome! They are filled with great tracks (fillers are only a few), a great way to any new psyhead to discover Goa. Plus their new releases are always quality stuff either it's ambient, prog, full on or darkpsy. Which reminds me how much I like when a label doesn't stick to only one style (Kudos to Kagdila for that too). Let's drop some more nice comments for them and keep hoping for more re-releases! :posford: edit: Indoor-Progressive Trance re-release what more do I need? Quote
Rotwang Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 Yeah, Avatar are great. Personally I mainly like them for all their Gil/ Nommos releases. Quote
Ormion Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 Yeah, Avatar are great. Personally I mainly like them for all their Gil/ Nommos releases. +1 BTW any news about new Nommos? Quote
rino Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 I bought each and every one of Avatar's re-releases, even if I already owned the original version They strike a nice balance between giving new comers a chance and a good place to start, while keeping it in tact with the roots and the old school side of things. Not everything they've done is pure gold, but it never is when you cover such a vast territory. Damn right! Giving listeners a chance to grab hold of Orion's and Indoor's debut and Total Eclipse's "Violent Relaxation"? Mad respect from me as well. Quote
U.F.Orb Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 yup lots of love and respect for avatar records for good music,i hope they will keep re-realeasing oldschool goa trance. Quote
Rotwang Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 BTW any news about new Nommos? I don't see any on either Gil's site or the Avatar site. What, if anything, have you heard? Quote
abasio Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 Much love for Avatar, they re-released Violent Relaxation by Total Eclipse which along with many other re-releases were very much appreciated. There original stuff as well can be pretty good although I'll remember them more for their re-releases! Quote
yerg Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 I heard their recent "Avatar 10" compilation and it just blew my mind, especially Cosmosis track (the cave of medusa)/ :posford: Quote
Goa-Head Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 Elysiums' Double Album ? Hux Flux reissue ? Quote
kathmandu Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 I requested them for a Sandman's Witchcraft album to also be made a pro file. No reply to the email but within a year the album was re-released. and X-dream's We created our own happiness[pro file] is one of the best cds I have ever. Quote
psytones Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 Shouting some love :clapping: to Avatar Records for their effort to re-release classix one normally would have a hard time finding .. Ie. Hux Flux - Cryptic Crunch Quote

Well Avatar has a lot of things going besides the re-issues series. For example Goa Gil, this guy is a goldmine! As for PsyHarmonics I guess they survive thanks to their core fans, I know a lot of them. Quote
Rotwang Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Avatar has also given us the Overdream album. Not sure whether I've mentioned this already, but it's rather good. Quote

I really dig it's colours and charm. Makes me smile music like this I requested them for a Sandman's Witchcraft album to also be made a pro file. No reply to the email but within a year the album was re-released. I was one of the people who bought this release on Avatar, and happy happy I am to have it. Quote
