Kluster (2) - Extended Oversized System - 25-May-08 11:17 AM
The lighter side of Swedish forest trance is brought you by Michael Pettersson. At first I couldn't stand this album, I only liked Split Personality (Remix) and Bad Habbits. In time I have become somewhat obsessed with it. All the tracks have at least couple of minutes of pure forest bliss in them. The kick and basslines pulsate pure forest and the melolic content is pretty cool also. The only thing that bugs me is the repeative sampling and oversampling in some of the tracks. But yeah it sure has grown on me over the years. Overall I quite enjoyable album.
Various - Humants - 21-May-08 05:15 AM
Sanaton Records strike gold again. With Humants they step even further away from every other label trying to release proper forest trance.
They've taken a step back from the totally hectic style of Holocryptic Audio and start the compilation with a couple of smooth and moody tracks. It still has it's share of noisy moments for sure, but now there's something for everyone.
Purosurpo (Jens from Derango) track deserves a mention, it's nothing but sheer brilliance all the way. Jens surely knows the way to make magical atmospheres.
The third track which is by Technical Hitch pushes the direction into something more chaotic. It's still a pretty held back track but still totally insane.
Parallell Karusell, Makadam and Atishoo all make a good effort on bringing the more moody tracks back but still have their share of noisy and chaotic moments. Kick ass tracks for sure from all three.
The next up is Cilium, a side-project of Bodhisattva 13:20, the track is just fucking mad, it's constantly evolving into something else, it has no real direction and makes no sense to me at all.
EvsY boys give us their most frantic track to date, can't really say I enjoy it but it still has this weird charm to it.
Captain Kirk (aka Kirna) from Finland gives us a nice finish to the album. More chilled than the previous ones and 100% forest guarantee!
All in all I do like most of the parts of this compilation and despite the noisy and random parts of it I still highly recommend this to everyone into the forest trance sounds.
xhm² - This Anxious Space - 15-Apr-08 01:32 AM
I had some trouble getting into this release at first. It's pretty much a mix of experimental glitchy electronics and sci-fi feel of Xingu Hill and the claustrophobic atmospheres and melodies (that later came known on his 2004 album Aswad, check out tracks #3, #5, #6, #9) of m² + a whole bunch of C-drík weirdness. Some of the tracks are more in the XH-style and some more of the m²-style, some mix 'em both in a fluid manner that can be nowhere else.
Fascinating weirdness at it's best in my opinion.
Kattoo - Places - 14-Apr-08 10:09 AM
The first Kattoo album has become a IDM classic and it takes us through 11 different landscapes + 1 re-visit. Some of them are very majestic and magical in atmospheres, some of them are just down right nasty and dirty. The soundscapes are cinematic and very Beefcake-like in style. The ambience creates some melody in the tracks and there's a good selection of samples used here.
It's not supposed to be a theme album that flows nicely from the beginning to the end, but rather a visit to different places. It shows us that Volker can really make different kinds of music very well.
Cosmo (5) - Akustical Pollution - 10-Jan-08 04:51 AM
At first this seemed like a sweet candy offered by an evil clown, but couple of listens turned it stale. All the tracks are in the same style and not in a good way, but the way it doesn't matter which track you listen because there doesn't seem to be any difference between them. It's all just thight bassline, loads of breaks and noisy effects on top and no real direction. It's not as random as the previous album, but not really something that you can enjoy for a long time.
