Well actually this is a "homemade" album, it isn't released on a label and you can get it FREE over here:
http://binarydreams.blackwaterrecords.com/media.html
I know that usually home-made stuff is crap and is definatley not worth your listening time even if it's available for free... however this is completely different!!! EVERYTHING in here, from the melodies to production is VERY professional, if someone didn't specifically tell me that it was homemade, I never would've guessed. So think of this more like the Schlabbaduerst comps: un-professional distribution definatley doesn't mean un-professional music...
I simply stumbled on this after reading a topic in the music making section of psynews forum. I had some spare time on my hands so I thought "ah what the hell, I'll give this a try"... and I'm so happy I did!! I stumbled on some magnificent oldschool tracks (and I guess by now you all now how much of an oldschool freak I am ) and also on some EXCELLENT downtempo tracks, reminiscent of downtempo Astral Projection and also some interesting crossblend between D&B and oldschool goatrance. Anyway, full tempo or downtempo, the word "mystical" often came to my mind when thinking on how the tracks sounded. All in all it's a VERY trippy experience, the music actually takes you places and how many albums released these days do that to you?
Commenting on the tracks isn't really usefull here since you can dload the tracks and listen to them for yourself anyway So why take my word for it when you could just try it out?
Conclusion As far as I'm concerned this guy makes some of the best oldschool (newschool?) music today!! He belongs right up there with Filteria as the carriers on of a certain vibe that has been thought to be long dead. Keep on the good work and will some label please get his stuff and give it a proper release??? 9/10 !!! One of the BEST albums of 04 and THE best homemade album I've EVER heard!!! (although that last part wasn't really difficult to achieve...)
standouts: Collateral Damage and Control
