Anoebis Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Finally... after years of waiting for you, and working hard behind the scenes for us (because, it was hard to let this album happen), we are super happy to announce the new (last?) album of Ra! Pure deep melodic goa-trance with oriental melodies from the master! The release date will be in october, probably around the 5th or the 12th, we will update you on this! The tracklist will look like this: 1. Ra - Terra (07:32) 2. Ra - Predator Remix (09:06) 3. Ra - Sacred Sands (10:29) 4. Ra - Crossing Planet (11:14) 5. Ra & Menkalian - 12th Hour (09:26) 6. Ra - Touch a Star (09:02) 7. Ra - Causatum (07:37)The first samples are on the suntrip shop, but long ones will be posted on soundcloud soon! http://suntriprecords.com/release/cat/SUNCD43/Enjoy this trip 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celaripo Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 ra is the best awesome news 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celaripo Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 9th is much better than to sirius at least for me if the new one is as good i will be very happy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychedelic chipmunk Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I like RA, while I think 9th is good..ish, nothing of RA's would best To Sirius (let the hate commence). Remains to be seen if I am wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komix Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Great news!!! Ra "9th" is my favourite suntrip release, so I'm expecting another top album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I tried recently to listen to 9th and found it very unremarkable. The songs are too repetitive in terms of arrangement and the melodies were not memorable at all. To Sirius was really great, with a lot of distinctive musical themes that make you return to it often. The transition between the 1st and the 2nd album reminds me of the transition between the first and the second Goasia abum. The second one was utter disappointment. Saying that, I really want to believe that new Ra album will offer something new to the table. And, I'll buy it without listening to samples, just for the name sake.

Paul Eye Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 That cover looks oddly familiar: Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mars Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 That cover looks oddly familiar: RA's front cover was made before actually. September 13th 2012. "Earthcall" has been in the works for a LONG time The "Cascades of Life" cover is only a few months old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richpa Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Yes, original project is almost 5 years old.Bigger resolution here: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microdelic Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Missed to RA's music so much, the samples are awesome and the cover too! The next mission is to bring them back to the stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padmapani Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 nice! finally! Â but i have to say that the samples don't meet my unrealistically high expectations. this is not going to be another 9th, imho the vibe and sound is much closer to to sirius, which though an excellent album isn't quite as spectacular.

antic604 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Well, for me Ra is an artist of "one sound", i.e. ethereal, deep, melodic goa and if you 1) don't like that style and/or 2) hoped they'd somehow change / evolve; then I'm not in the slightest surprised hearing some people are disappointed with this... Furthermore it's evident from Joske's comment ("the last?") that Ra's not much into creating that music anymore, and you can't force anyone to create art when they don't have heart for it... I'll probably buy it, just like any other Suntrip release, but I'm not their biggest fan either. Â Also, I'm not fond of Suntrip's mastering as of late - it's too loud, harsh & piercing (it started around Celestial Intelligence's CD) and while it might complement more aggressive music - e.g. Morphic Resonance's album - here it just sounds out of place, because the music itself is gentle, smooth and soothing. But I guess it works on the dance floor and I'm in vast minority of goa-trance consumers never listening to it at a party, so there's that...

Starkraver Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 What is that symbol in the middle of the artwork? Half of the artwork is covered by that symbol & RA. Â Samples sound nice but painful. I see what antic means. May be this ain't for headphone/earphone listening. Â Not a fan of the artwork but I will buy the CD as its RA.

Shpongled247 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Samples sound nice to me on speakers so far. I'm just happy to hear some more RA tbh! Agree he has never been for everyone, but i feel like there is an unmistakable flow or style to his stuff that I always liked. Sad to read between the lines that this might be the last one, but better than none at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnb820 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Would someone do me a favor? I don't want to know anything about this album until it arrives so I am requesting that someone purchase this album for me. I will send enough money to purchase 2 copies, one for me and one for yourself. PM me if you are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoebis Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 Longer samples in a row... https://soundcloud.com/suntrip-records/ra-earthcall-samples-suncd43-released-5th-of-october 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richpa Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Crossing Planet sounds like a winner to me, really looking forward to hear that track in full lenght. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoebis Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 What is that symbol in the middle of the artwork? Half of the artwork is covered by that symbol & RA. Its the symbol he created himself, and it is pretty clear... it's literally Ra, the God of the Sun, you have the eye of God, as a sun, and the sunrays...

Squid Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Samples sound very promising indeed. I like the somewhat more aggressive and focused approach compared to 9th. A definite buy for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
