Two Bastard is a long track letting place for an interesting building, very changing, in a dark psyprogressive way (in both sense).

 

On a mission is based on the use of some sonic bumps around 3’00 just after the speech break from a dude recognizable by his way of speaking already heard in many other psy stuffs (btw i don’t know to which personn belongs this voice or where does it come from).

 

The melody rings like a phone one in Black Zodiac, but seems here nobody wants to take the call, later evolves into something cyber-mutant ringing like if b being genetically modified.

 

Once again i skip a Nexus ‘s track, really too boring for me…

 

This time Double R.E.L rocks, funny & quite surprising elements parts appearing like some notes coming out from an acoustic guitar or strongly ondulated-trembling violin lead confering a soft clasical music & romantic touch, finishing on a reverse way playing samples voices.

 

Pedro from Entropy is a typical pachydermic psytek-trance stuff, a bit in a same way as

Tetraktys – Mechanical Unit.

 

Zirkin delivers something more psyprog to me in his first half at last, more bouncy, jerky & slightly more enlightened comparing to the other classical dark psytrance stuffs on this second session.

 

Come back here with typical dark psychedelic stuff with Lacrimoza, well produced & effective, incisive stuff , the melody around 3’00 makes me laugh coz obviously looks like a lot to Dorothée – Ouh la menteuse ,elle est amoureuse (an odd-old hit from french singtress dedicated for young child).

 

Green Liquid is quite short with a weird atmosphere, it lacks maybe a bit of coherence inside to be a real blast.

 

Highlights :5,7

Other favorites by order :8,2,1,6,3

 

This second chapter is a bit less attractive & innovative than first one but still worth it for psydark lovers.

 

7/10
