Main Sequence Star - Low Earth Orbit Mystic Sound Records is a label founded by Alla Vagner (Maiia303) and Edward Cybered and their goal is to release music from across the psychedelic spectrum be it trance, downtempo, or psychill. This is a digital release (which is a shame cause that cover art is mindblowing!) and it sports quite the impressive track list. And let me tell you it is a solid compilation with a fair amount of superb tracks as well as good ones. Maiia303 fresh off her album Sky In Diamonds and EP release Sleepless in Anjuna absolutely wrecks the box with a stormer that I had trouble getting past. Just kept hitting repeat. Imba & Jagoa as well as Fiery Dawn rattle a few windows with some massive sound. Afgin's back and his Rambo track made me smile cause I grew up on Rambo and I have a nice smile. Hide your girlfriends! Jikooha does what Jikooha does and wraps the listener up in a time sucking vortex of twirling that was over far too soon. The second half was pure madness! The only one I didn't care for was the Space Elves track with it's annoying repetition. Just didn't sit well with me. However the biggest disappointment on the compilation was from Khetzal. It's a good track, but when I think of Khetzal I think of Corelle and this wasn't close to that awesome bliss. Nice work and thanks to a friend for putting me on to this album, he knows who he is. Here's to hoping one day we can get a physical release outta this. Oh and by the way...I think I'm in love with Maiia303...

Aspartic Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Really good goa compilation! It came a bit out of the blue, but I'm pleasantly surprised. Warm acidic goa sounds are all I need. The acid in Maiia303's great spirit is fantastic. Imba and Jagoa do perfectly what you would expect from a super collab like this. Acid with a tight bassline underneath and a great story. Fiery Dawn, OXI and Jikooha deliver superb goa tracks each. Indeed the Jikooha track's second part is mind blowing. It pushes like a train. Afgin's Rambo makes me smile too and it's a nice track, on the verge of cheesiness. Nothing wrong with that. Space Elves and Somnesia let me down here. I can't get into the tracks. Something special is lacking. A good thick bassline or simply a journey from start to finish. Khetzal goes a tad darker than we're used to. I really dig it. Very nice compilation here and definitely looking forward to a sequel!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alek Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Quite a nice surprise Maiia seems to be very productive these days with a number of quality releases coming out. The standout tracks for me here are Khetzal (showing his darker side) and Jikooha's climax is a tidal wave! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penzoline Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The middle of the Oxi track is superB. True rave goa. Too bad the later melody is medicore at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
