London’s leading trance export Twisted Records is out with their 31st release, Corridor Of Mirrors which is the second album from Hallucinogen-apprentice Prometheus (Benji Vaughan). Virtually everything that Benji has had his paws on has been ace – from the early Process collaborations to the epic Younger Brother album. From the gargantuan first Prometheus album Robot.O.Chan to the many stand-out compilation tracks on Twisted and TIP.World. Crystal Skulls material in particular.
Benji is a subliminal producer of both progressive, full-on and downbeat and I regard him as one of the most pivotal post-2000 UK trance personas. So yeah, I’m a huge fan and I’ve been a happy camper ever since this second album was released. Now let’s find out if it meets the expectations.
Believe the hype!
As you’ve probably already guessed by now this album totally lived up to my expectations – and even exceed them. This is right up to par with the Holy Trinity: Prometheus’ Robot.O.Chan (Twisted Records/2004), Ott’s Blumenkraft (Twisted Records/2003) and the Younger Brother album A Flock Of Bleeps (Twisted Records/2003) – to put it in layman’s terms, it’s an instant classic!
Benji is such a versatile, deeply talented producer – and his output is as eclectic as it is rewarding. His talent spans several genres, but the subsequent basic framework of high-quality psytrance is always the common denominator. Ben does it best. The flashy, futuristic artwork by legendary Calx is proper eye candy and meets the high standard we’re used to from Twisted Records. My only gripe is that the album only runs for 64 minutes, but with music of such quality I’m willing to let that one slide. It’s the old quality over quantity thing.
All in all, this is an amazing album – there’s nothing even close to a mediocre track here and I’m positive several of these tunes will become proper trancefloor anthems in years to come. It’s *that* good. Comes highly recommended from me as this is one enchanted piece of plastic. A musical investment opportunity that few people can afford to miss. Trust me on this – you need this one! Enjoy!
