Sideffect... Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Luminus – Journey Into Your Dream Jungle Traveller Luminus Angel Baby's Fairytale (Crying Mix) Road Runner Journey Into Your Dream Good Or Bad Have Fun (Album Edit) Eyes Of God Antifreeze I see no review added (searched > 5 times) for this album and it's almost 2013 , so a short one will do I hope I'm not a fan of nithzonot at all but this type of trance does it pretty well. Luminus isn't the typical nithzonot and that's probably the reason why. Mainly the extremely hard bass annoys me but Luminus manages to create a baseline that is still nithzonot but soft enough to enjoy as a goatrance fan. This man has got a lot off talent and especially in the beginning of his tracks where he uses some spirals and a lot off soft layers the quality is great. Further at the end of the tracks it sometimes gets a bit over melodic but because off the choice of his waves it's ok. It isn't sharp at all but very warm and full. I like his concept. The sample that he uses are sometimes a bit childish like other nithzonot artist tend to do. Like the baby crying in guess what the track "Baby's Fairytale (Crying Mix)" I'm thinking, pffff, let's get over with. But then again tracks like "eyes of god", "jungle traveller","journey into your dream" are great. A nice warm atmosphere combined with a good uptempo beat and very doof kick. I can't relate to another trance artist on the top of my head who uses such a kick in his baseline. Therefor I've got to give the man some huge credit because that's an original kick. Conclusion: If you like goatrance, and you want some nitzho tunes, go for luminus. Because imo he comes very close to the goatrance formula.
