The best new school goa trance compilation no doubt, no weak tracks, just perfection from the first note to the last.
Twist Dreams is a trip back to the golden years of Goa trance, but with amazing production values! Every note is clear as crystal; the mastering is phenomenal.
However, Twist Dreams is not a relic from the past, you can hear the influence of modern psytrance throughout the tracks, especially in the bass-lines, which are more pronounced than classical Goa trance. This seems to give the sound of Twist Dreams a strong, driving rhythm, which was sometimes lacking in the golden era of Goa trance.
My favorite track is (4) Talpa - Til We Meet Again. The winding, and weaving melodies are to die for! It has an adventurous and perilous tone, perfect for that late-night drive to that party in the middle of no where.
The album carries out its purpose (old school goa trance) and does it exceedingly well, but Twist Dreams follows a safe path and dares not to explore away from the classic Goa sound to new sonic territories.

In a nutshell. This is the album Suntrip has been embarking on from the outset. And the first Suntrip release, I feel, where Mars and Fabien truly succeeds with their rendezvous of mid nineties Goa and modern production techniques. This is every bit the old skool vibe you could ask for and totally up to par soundwise with nowadays releases.
Add to this most of the artists here being debutants. Whoever said Goa was going smithereens needs to check out this party baby before repeating that verdict.
Of course, there are personal favourites. Cosmic Silence flags the warning, Aerosis starts party subconscious, and Red Gravity together with Afgin delivers two instant Goa classics if there ever was two. Even Filteria under the K.O.B. moniker comes through better than ever with a less-in-the-face attitude that suits him like a fist. To think I’ve had my hesitations with him in the past. Damnit, Jannis, well done :o)
And the rest is fillers? The rest is modern Goa history in the making. And brings me to ask: With dance floor adventures this challenging for feet AND mind why bother with Yabba-Dabba-Trance No. 1 mio. releases?! Sure, if you’re used to M.o.S. this can welcome you like a hurricane. Too much is going on! Well, focus on one layer and let the melody take you. Then let the next one grab you ... and the next one ...
Then try taking it all in at one time +_+
Congrats, Suntrip! I always knew the wait would be worthwhile.
Now we just need to spread the word ... °-°

Celebrating the marriage of the moon with the sun…
Twist Dreams is the 6th release by Psynews.org spawned nu-school goa trance label Suntrip Records. Operated from Ghent, Belgium (Anoebis) and Paris, France (Mars) this dedicated label has graced us with magnificent albums by Filteria, Ka-Sol and Khetzal. This is the second compilation, following the lush Apsara from 2005. Once again the guys have scoured the underground goa trance communities in their quest to bring high quality trance to the masses. Let’s find out what they hand-picked for us this time…
Once again the Suntrippers have outdone themselves. This is a fantastic compilation – even better than the already classic Apsara released in 2005. There are no bad tracks here, and with the exception of one single track, I was taken in by every single track… It’s one sure-fit blast after another - which is getting rarer nowadays. Hats off to Mars and Anoebis for their never-ending, arduous task of bringing high-quality goa trance to the hungry masses… This is a lush, plush and totally twisted dream come true.
The dot-paint art by Margot Schaefer (Anoebis’ mother) is breath-taking and everything about this release just reeks quality. A very important release in the resurrection of goa trance – and an essential purchase for any dedicated follower of melodic trance. Go get it and a prepare yourself to be blown away… Enjoy!
