Edited 15 years agoThe only reason to get this is the bonus disc, Trippy Future Garden, but it's a damn good reason! That album, originally released on Polytox Records, was incredible when it was released and now when we're able to look back in history I'll definately say that it was one of the ten most important releases whithin the early Goa-Trance genre.
It's pathetic that it's combined with a crappy new Psy-Trance album here from Planet B.E.N. when it should just have been re-released as the fantastic album it is. Trippy Future Garden is sadly a lost gem that not many people have heard of yet so for that reason alone I really hope you'll get it even though the first disc of this 2xCD set is crap.
The second disc is hypnotic grinding acid/trance that was recorded just at the brink of dawn when the Goa-Trance genre was born (1991-1994). It should be in all acidheads/goaheads collections!
You shouldn't even bother to put that first disc in your CD-player when the bonus disc really is the music you should listen too! I wonder if the bonus disc was intended to be the reason for us to buy the release or if it was really intended to be just a bonus?
I think it's sad that so many of the early Goa-Trance artists stopped producing interesting music in 1997 or even before that! What happened to them then?- Edited 13 years agoCD 1 is full of the mindnumbingly boring minimalism psy is suffering from nowadays, so skip that and head straight for CD 2, "Trippy Future Garden". Here you will find some mindbendingly twisted oldschool goa tracks with tons psychedelic detail and FX trickery. Track 1 with its near 22 minutes of tripped out madness is quite a particularly impressive effort.
Sadly, this is pretty much a useless release, as Disc 2 has already been released seperately on Polytox. Track down that release instead and avoid this.
