Well imo this cd isn;t exactly groundbreaking, but it proves that you don;t always have to push the boundaries to bring out somethinge pleasant. Have listened to this a few times over the last week and I really think this is probably oforia's best work to date, although I still think he's second album, Off The Ground, is pretty special. Classy full on sounds with some cheesey and fun guitar samples, acidy sounds and a full on beat add for some easy trancey listening and brings smiles to my face, a fav artits of mine from awhile back still proves he has what it takes to make nice full on trance  |

I agree with Journey Man..
Its not earth shattering, but does make an impression because of the simplicity and melody. Never gets cheesy anywhere.
Nice album. My fav wud be OFORIA - HIGH GRAVITY

not really impressed with this album - most tracks sound pretty similar (as is the case with a lot of full on thses days).
unfortunately nothing innovative or fresh on this cd. admittedly some big bass lines that would sound pretty good on a big rig but then each track follows a simlar formula.

New Oforia album,nothing groundbreaking here just like many other users already mentioned but for sure a pleasant hearing in the end of the day due to its high quality and clear production.
The big minus on this album for me are the simple ideas used in most of the tracks,i mean i expected something more complicated from an artist at the level of Oforia.
Also i didnt like the guitar sounds in couple of tunes in the album such as Northern Lights and Anti Gravity.
My favorite tune from this album is for sure Machines Job which is a great track for the dancefloor.
The two other tunes that i enjoyed are Substance and Headed For Infinity.
All in all an average album.
Toodaloo Motherfuckers!!!!! |

like many other old school artist oforia also went into morning fullon style...
this is album is good but not the best...
melodic travelling climaxes, strong bassline, good guitar work... |

I agree its similar formula. But works very well!!!
To do what you know is also the best formula.
His stile follows a simple line which is great: strong bass, some synths layers one besides other and a very good mix.
More listening, more interesting it become.

Agreed. Nothing special. Only buy-worthy if you're an absolute Oforia afficionado or if you don't own his previous albums. I consider Pigs In Space to be his best work to date. His album Let it Beat was pretty good as well, but this one is just... yeah I don't know... average.

There are so many average, mediocre, and standard releases out there that this offering just doesn't cut it. Cookie cutter formula stuff that will no doubt work on the floor, but there's seldom a need to buy one of these releases over another. We get it - the production value is nice, and everything sounds clear, so how about a little dose of creativity to inject this music with something it vitally lacks - the power to amaze.

this is a high end release by one of the top artists in the business. true, it's not as astounding as previous releases by Dikovski, but than again, Ofer is an established artist. this album is diverse and interesting, it's got top notch production values, and it pushes the envelope in certain points. it comes short on the expectations of people who admired things such as tandu's alien pump or pigs in space, but those are in the past. Oforia has made proggress, imo, and stays away from the cliches and trappings of modern day trance in Most cases. a solid release. i give it an 8-7.5

After spending much time listening to his old rlesease, this is and amzing show of progress and originality... taking a leap out from the same old sounds of Israel modern full on, Oforia releases a stomper of an album full of crazy acid sounds, whilst not the most rignal overall releases of the year, it is funky anf trippy and lots of fun, which is what it is all about  Hope to see him live thisyear, would be a great party |
