This couldve been one of the great goa collections of the midnineties I missed! Yeah, Suntrip really has created their own niche to play around in, and if they are able to keep up with the pace of their so far 4 releases, this label far and away stands out as THE psychedelic trance label to keep and eye out for. No questions asked.

The amount of mind blasters here is nothing short of ridiculess :o). The créme de la créme of contemporary psytrance, there is not a single filler or anything coming remotely close here. Quite the contrary, every track has personality, catchiness, and hard dance energy. On any other compilation a standout. And make no mistake. Even if this finds its inspiration in the melodic goa sound of the midnineties, its updated to meet the demands of nowadays psy follower and undoubtly a style in its own right. No questions asked.

The competition here is fierce but force me and Lost Buddha, Ka-Sol, Goasia, and Radical Distortion would be my pick. These guysll bulldoze a path two miles wide to Psychedelia for me any day of the week. But each and ay artist here really would do that for me.
