The best track for me is Fingers. The track starts off moody and dark. "Hahaha" sample is a funny/awkward add, depends whether jocular themes in goa are enough to prevent your enlightening process heh. Half way through the track a juicy synth-line starts repeating itself all the way till the end. Some of the rawest, simple output from Etnica lab but the nostalgic in me can't get enough!
The track Big Dust In Chapora Fort is also nice. First track from Etnica that I'm aware of to have the sort of "rattling effect" that Etnica later on used on some tracks. Soft piano chords in the track give the track overall trancey, light feel.
This vinyl gives a great idea how rapidly Etnica progressed in their sound, being their first release it flirts to regular trance of its time and just a few elements justify (plus the later history of the group) people to tag this goa. A year later they already made excellent productions such as the Pleiadians vinyl on Symbiosis.
