Review by kingwiltsu Sep 21, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
Yet another brilliant old chillout compilation that holds in the magnificent Nomads of Dub song Spirals. That song itself hasn't aged a bit since it first saw the daylight in Twisted Records' compilation Eclipse: A Journey of Permanence & Impermanence. Followed by Dub Trees' Buffalo and the funny samples in it. And in this point it's always good to fly off to distant beach and we get that with Albatross by Suns of Arqa, this is has been one of my favourites ever since I first heard it. Let's continue to drift off with Guy Pratt & Alex Paterson and their song 4 Horsemen. Kiosk's a bit over two minute Pip in the Pudding is quiet, it let's you calm down a bit before Killing Joke's Requiem (Remix) which itself is a bit more harsh. Industrial Suicide Tribe continue to taking more deeper, it has a nice guitar in it too. After this it's time to make you feel easier and D'ya Dig' and close things off with an outro.
Yes, this is old, but this is good. This is how more chillout albums should sound and Alex Paterson has done a great job with selecting and mixing his voyage into paradise. This has a darker side and a happier side, it's soft and it's hard. It's magical! This is an must have for all Liquid Sound Design fans.
Rated 5/5
Review by gravitee Jul 26, 2003
If you were to ask me, I'd tell you that there aren't enough people, in this community, with this album in their collection. This album elucidates the unlimited potential of electronic music.
It's a brilliant compilation.
Fittingly called a voyage into paradise because it takes you there; away from the earth, into another realm. A realm of relaxing, lucid beats lazily streaming from one side of your mind to the other.
Moreover, a mixture of downtempo, ambient dub, mixed by the ambient dub master dr lx paterson.
- The Nomads of Dub kick off the set in a synthesized Spiral of electronic dubbiness
- DubTrees (L.S.D. label owner Youth) carry on the tradition with a stampede of Buffalo Beats
and Rythms. Is grass an analgesic? This song definitely is.
- Suns of Arqa bring us back downtempo, beneath the ground, with their version of Fleetwood
Mac's Albatross. This is as downtempo as you get. Sit back we will be taking off soon. Oh!
That's right! We are already off.
- The Rob's (a.k.a. The Orb) 4 Horseman begins this CD on it's climactic journey. An
excellent remix of Hamlet of King's that will make your brain pulsate from the 'centre of the
ultraworld.'
- Kiosk take's the helm and leads us along the path of enlightenment with Pip in the Pudding.
- Then the Killing Joke's Requiem takes the reigns and usher's us through to the next life.
- Industrial Suicide Tribe's symphonic soul massaging song, Agua Sufi, cleansed my sins.
Trance inducing, tribal trippiness.
- Easy's D'ya Dig' will bring it to a close with some downtempo MC's showing us 'a side of life
that we've never seen before'. Yeah. I dig.
