Guest muileh ?

well for me,

 

1-2. Psysex- "Hardcore Blasoff"(love the funked out vibes, beats and sounds! So fresh(or is it phresh?). Samples are just insane- more like that please! **happenin' **)

 

2-1. Shpongle- "Tales..."(unparralled sound texturing/manicuring- so many harmonious sounds, rythms and melodies going on at one time- hear new stuff each time I listen to it. Beautiful and sexy

 

3. Deedrah- "Reload"(has grown on me quite a bit, not as shallow as I had first thought)

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@++++++++++++++++

 

RA- "To Sirius" quickly fizzled for me although I loved it at first...

 

BP Empire- great in places but overall too obnoxious, discordant, and bothersome- too "metallic" sounding, they went bannanas with the reverb it seems :)

1. Psycraft - Gravitech

(I just got this today and it is the most awesome cd I own!! It is along the lines of Spacecat but much more quality control and effort I find, theset guys live would be an absolute killer for sure!!)

 

2.Beat Bizzare - Lewd

(Ok, I said I don't like minimal psytrance but I must concede this is an excelent cd, although it seems to be a bit basic in areas, and doesn't always quite flow perfectly, these guys are sure to be an excellent part of the psy community in the not to distant future :) )

 

3. Retro - 10 Years Of Israeli Trance

( I love the first cd, the second one is ok. I am a big fan of mixed cd's, as I don't often get to go to gigs. This cd sums up alot about the trance scene. Telling us how it kinda began, then how it chenged to what it is now. Nice idea, though the second cd could have been a litle better selection :) )

From the top of my head...

 

* Shpongle "Tales Of The Inexpressible"

* Infected Mushroom "BP Empire"

* V/A "Otherwise"

* V/A "Assassi:Nations"

* V/A "Retro - 10 Years Of Israeli Trance"

 

And 13 Crystal Skulls will most likely also reach the top of 2001...

Reefer Decree - Soundframes

Beat Bizarre - Lewd

Amphasis - Human Arrangements

 

Track of the year without doubt "Reefer Decree - Curved Air". It's so fucking brilliant.

it's so great to see lots of people enjoyed Tales of the Inexpressible as much as I did

 

It blows every piece of audio I've ever heard out of the water. It raised standards for what music is

 

by far my favorite album of the year!

 

Shpongle - Tales of the Inexpressible

1.Violet Vision - Fist Sign of Communication

2.Shpongle - Tales of the Inexpressible

 

I can't think of a third one cause nothin else comes close to the level of originality in the above two (IMO).

 

Peace
