Lemmiwinks Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 I knew there were PLANS to make a new album, I didn't know they already made it. As a comparison it has been YEARS since I've heard that there are "plans" to make a new Hallucinogen album, a new Transwave album, a new Pleiadians album,.... seems that psy artists are a bit lazy...

Hels Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 Maybe they're taking their time and ensuring a quality product...lack of that nowadays in the scene... Quote
Guest .:::E.P Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 rumors rumors rumors..... Maybe som artists have moved on while some people in this forum still live in the past It got nothing to do with lazyness. Quote
Lemmiwinks Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 "Maybe they're taking their time and ensuring a quality product...lack of that nowadays in the scene..." yeah that's what I thought as well... however all the "comebacks" I've listened to have sucked bigtime so i don't think that "quality" is their main concern... "It got nothing to do with lazyness." yeah OK, "lazy" is a strong word... they're probably occupied doing something else... still, when you read in 2001 that a Transwave IV album will come "shortly" and it's 2004 and still no sign of a new album in site it's a bit dissapointing don't you think?

Guest .:::E.P Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 No I dont think it's dissapointing since I wont be listening to it anyway....lol Quote
Guest Mike D Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 um. it's a re-release of their Geomantik album... great classic old school goa trance Quote
Guest Trolsk Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 If you're thinking of the "new" Geomantik album, then it's not a new album, it's a re-relaese of an old album: http://www.saikosounds.com/english/display...ase.asp?id=4140 Trolsk Quote
Guest Jon Cocco Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 Hey Mike D and Trolsk, I thought the Geomantik release by Prana was an already released album of mixes off their other album and or singles. When I viewed the title samples at psyshop (there are no mp3's to stream) the titles were all different. There are several mixes by Scarab, for example. It seems like the album is a bunch of mixes, but what about the first several tracks on the list? Were those previously released songs on Prana's last album, (is it Cyclone) or is this simply a remix album , a way for Prana to make money without putting enough work into cutting a new album? Any insight? Go here and see the list and title tracks at psyshop for yourself. http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/ava/ava1cd024.html Basically, I want to know if this is worth getting and if these are basically a compilation of songs released before, since it says "mix" next to most of them, I FIGURED that these songs were done before by PRANA before they were mixed, so is their original versions on Prana's other albums or EP's or singles, or comps, ya know...?

Lemmiwinks Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 Jon dude... look at the original Geomantik release in the review section of this site... it already contained mixes off the Cyclone album (especially Scarab)!! SMI²LE Quote
Guest Jon Cocco Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 Okay, I see , so would it make sense to say that Geomantik is Prana's second full album? (Re-released) If this is their second album, has anyone heard it and is it really good? I'm contemplating ordering it. I don't think I've heard Prana before. Also, does anyone know where I can order Cyclone or will that need a re-release of sorts as well to become available again? , later Quote
khogg Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 Prana had a *few* good tracks back in the day, but were never outstanding ("Alien Pets" is their--or should I say his?--best ever track). Geomantik (as an album) wasn't inpiring back then and certainly isn't now. My recollection of it is a couple of decent original songs and a bunch of lame remixes of early early not so good goa. Don't buy it. That's my honest recomendation. I will now take cover and get ready to dodge bullets. Quote
Lemmiwinks Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 ah Prana RULED back in the days... however now I find that they're sound is a little dated (well duh, the original Scarab was made in 1992 for example...). Or is it just because I've listened to their stuff sooo many times that I became bored of their style? That said, about a year ago I've listened to Taiyo (one of their classics) mixed into a full-on set and it still worked extremely well on the dancefloor!! But if you'd buy an album I'd definatley recomend Cyclone over Geomantik SMI²LE Quote
Guest q0nk Posted June 14, 2004 Posted June 14, 2004 yes, cyclone over geomantik, geo disappointed me then and now cyclone is good tho Quote
