Out of the loop, need to get back into it.

[Lemmiwinks]

hi Mergi, hope you and your cat get well soon

 

I know I'm a bit late for the contest but as a seasoned goatrance veteran I can't walk by without recommending you Alienapia - Goapocalipsis. IMO it is the most innovative album to hit the psy scene in the last 5 years, period

I would like to recommend one more if you are even slightly into the the full on sound , this one is clean pure psytrance , but enough going on to keep people with a open mind interested ....

 

Hotep - Transformation of light

[Drosophila]

with the Hedonix recommendation sidetrakkt has taken the lead so far.

 

Good aye! Remember to try out their first album, I would say it is equally good, maybe even better... although I have also heard it a lot more times, and that one was a grower as well

[Mergi]

First of all I'm grateful for your patience. I've recovered from the flu... unfortunately my cat on the other hand didn't make it at all, lost him to cancer 10 hours ago, so I'm certainly not back in the groove. I actually did not think it would hit me so hard (it's only a cat... hmmm...) but I guess that's what happens when you live with someone for an extended period of time. I'm going to try to. get. a. grip. as soon as possible... probably sometime next week it'll all start rolling again.

Sorry to hear that... I hope he/she didn't suffer too much! Try to use some music for some mental flight (as in flying)... helps me, dunno if trance is the best for you, but works for me (sometimes). But I do think it is good for reconsolidation, a couch/bed and some good music

[Manuser]

sorry to hear that Mergi

[Mergi]

The Nano Ninja unfortunately didn't go well with me at all, maybe it'll grow so I'll keep it awhile. The rest of them are all either good or pretty damn good with Hedonix on the top mainly because that CD was so damn refreshing soundwise.

 

Thanks to all of you none the less! Maybe I'll do this again sometime . I will certainly check the other stuff too that didn't make it into the first ten. Just. Need. More. Time... which doesn't seem to exist.

 

I wonder if sidetrakkt is still around, I'll be sending him a PM and hope he'll pick up the 2 CDs I was offering.
