EDITORIAL REVIEWS |
Amazon.com
Kinetic Records presents 10 tracks hand-picked by the Tsunami trance organization, which has been around since 1996. While not actually mixed, there does seem to be some thought put into the overall flow. Starting on the oceanic tip with Zorba's "The Deep" and Chakra's "Deliverance" (complete with the noise of a depth sounder on methamphetaminic overdrive), the tone gets momentarily darker, with the ghostly breakdowns of I-Zen's "Voices" and Saiko-Pod's "Magnetic Force." The BPMs go skyward and the mood goes manic with Total Eclipse's "Psychedelic Terrorist." X-Dream's aptly titled "Aspirin" buzzes in for a very momentary breather until it too marches forward with military precision into Oforia's flanged-out "Special Offer." Yahel's "Reality," opening with some dub-ish goings-on, becomes a nice hands-in-the-air stormer. It's almost too bad that the record doesn't end there, as Infected Mushroom's "Symphonatic" and Morphem's "Hypnotone" seem to have too much and too little to say respectively. --Bob Michaels |

a trip from the ordinary by PsychUOut13 (Wisconsin) 5 Stars
March 11, 2004
i picked up this cd with no expectations. i knew a song or 2 would be good, but when i popped it in my cd player and listened to the rest, it really was pretty awesome. it definitely has some unique tracks with catchy beats and funky sounds, but every track comes together and gives you a great mix of everything. yeah, there's some d&b, some goa, some stuff you can't even put in a category, but it's all good. "special offer" is one of the coolest songs i've ever heard. give it a whirl... i highly recommend

A taste of the darker underground by Ethan Shvartzman (los angeles, CA United States)  4 Stars
April 11, 2003
In short: a wonderful collection of progressive trance tracks that demonstrate the breadth of possibilities. Obviously chosen with care, it only leaves one wondering why they tracks are not mixed together to form an even more cohesive and enjoyable experience. Think of this cd as an awesome buffett of darker electronica. Well worth the price of the admition if your interested go beyond the bubblegum poptronica of ATB, BT and Sasha. This is music for the electronic tribes.

Tsunami by nachtkobold (Dallas, TX, USA) 5 Stars
January 23, 2003
This CD is really awesome. The trakcs are short enough where you don't get ... off at a repetitive beat, but deep enough to lose yourself in. the beats are fantastic, as are the bass lines. I hadn't discovered what my subwooers really could do until i listened to this CD. It is amazing and I recommend it to anybody, especially for 8 bucks like they have it on amazon.com, i bought it new for 19 and it was still worth it.

Buy This! Jump off Oakie's bandwagon by Dennis A Vollmer (Dallas) 5 Stars
October 05, 2001
This is one of those albums that you tend to not to notice, even after I bought it I only gave it a brief listen or two before it got tossed in with the other CD's I rarely listen to. I almost didint buy it when I did either, nothing about it hints at what a Awesome album it is. In the last 5 years or so, Trance as a genre has evolved into what we hear today, in most cases it consists of a "intro", a "breakdown", a few "build up's", and a "big epic creshindo", set to a 4/4 measure around 130BPM. Though there are a notable few that producers that have expanded on that basic structure, but overall trance has killed itself trying to "Out Anthem" one another. As a whole Tsunami seems a little off at first, there seems to be to much going on at first for trance, but its not edgy enough to be called "Hard House" or "Drum & Bass". I wasent sure what to think at first, I liked it, but wasent overly impressed. But what a difference a good pair of headphones make. About five minutes later midway through track 2, I was zoning off when it hit me, This is what trance was supposed to be about. Most of the tracks are very tribal, (Tribal dose not = D&B) have heavy "Techno" underpinings blended with slick synth lines. Unlike a lot of Comp's. that feel slaped together, the quality of the tracks suprized me. X-Dream in paticular stands out above the rest, they are one of the older purveyors of hard trance.

Phutureprimitive is the refreshing musical creation of Oregon-based DJ/Producer, Rain. The Phutureprimitive sound is subterranean electronic tribalism, combining elements of organic downtempo, ethnic breaks, and sensual atmospherics. Ethereal vocals soar over dubbed-out basslines, and live percussion unfolds over odd time signatures creating a groove that is influenced by the synthetic textures of psychedelic trance as well as the kinetic grooves of world music. Rain developed a love for...
