Yakooza - I Wanna Feel - 17-Aug-09 12:41 AM
Holy Shiite Muslim! You may not be into hard trance, but Scot Project has a way of appealing to a wide audience. He comes with a floor burning remix as usual, with a familiar rocking style that you either love or hate, but most dig the fuck out of it. His newer stuff is going a little more experimental, but it comes back often and HARD. I love this ravey, hands in the air, melodic, glitchy affair with Scot Project tracks and his remixes.

Various - Tsunami - 03-Aug-09 03:12 PM
This is the CD that brought me back to the Goa/Psy sound. I can understand why this comp doesnt get high ratings, but that doesnt mean you shouldnt look out for it. If only for a few tracks this CD would be flawless, and almost is. If you havent heard "symphonatic" by Infected Mushroom yet, you are seriously missing out. This could very well be the most accomplished Psytrance ever. This song convinced me that Infected Mushroom were the new leaders of the sound. The Yahel track is also amazing, with a loop in the chorus that will make you feel like you are "creating a bond with reality". The Saiko-Pod track is up there, and so is the Oforia track. The others dont live up to the greatness of these, but they have there own qualities as well. This ended up being a great point in the history of Psytrance, when the sound was still experimental and free. I hope there is a renaissance of this in the near future.

Haujobb - Freeze Frame Reality - 27-Jul-09 10:34 AM
From the outset of the first track you will know that this is a monumental journey that some arent ready for. I was personally blown away by this album, and still am. Everything a true industrial fan loves is here. Its experimental, yet cohesive. Its thrashing, yet beautiful. Its uncompromising, and inviting. People like to say that Haujobb didnt have an original style, that they were Skinny Puppy clones. I only felt that from the first album, with this they showed us their genius. Every song is its own entity, that evovles, and breathes, giving life to the next song. This album has flow from beginning to end, unlike many CDs today. This music is not for the faint of heart, or weak of mind. Its for the future, and the people that care about it.

Hardfloor - Dadamnphreaknoizphunk? - 25-Jun-09 03:05 AM
Have you ever listened to this at 45rpm -8%, or -10%, if you have then you know that dubdope is supposed to be played at that speed. Its an amazing atmospheric techno break, and I know I used to hear it played like this. I asked some friends and they all agreed it sounds right like this. The track Drive Thruw also sounds good like this. On Yimtrop you are going to want to put it on 45rpm, and you get something akin to the "Children of the Bong", nice and trippy floating techno ambient breaks. Triple Play is the only one that sounds right at 33rpm, but you still might want to speed it up +10% or more to get it into the 120bpm range, and it barely makes it. This is a cool record, but at first it sounded very wrong, now I just want to ask Hardfloor.

Kyper - What Gets Your Body Hyped (XTC) - 22-Jun-09 11:38 AM
I am only 30, but when I was kid I would listen to the radio DJs play live from the club late night on fridays and saturdays.
They would mix this track in pretty much every weekend, but I never heard it on during the day, they just didnt play dance music like that at all during the day. I never thought I would find out who did it. I started to DJ, and I would ask other DJs if they knew the track, sadly no one did. But just this last year my friend remembered, but I know I asked him a bunch of times. Either way I found it on Discogs, and now I have my own copy. This is an Electro Bass Monster from 89, the original has raplike vocals and might make you laugh, the dub keeps the chorus sample and emphasizes the beat. It must be a classic by now. What gets your body hyped, what makes you dance all night, XTC, XTC. Say it with me.
