Kfir Shmilovich, the man behind the spaced up monkey are born in germany but moved to israel some years ago. First a wanna say i was a little sceptic of this album, i thought it was a 100% dynamic, melicia, isra clone, well in some kind it was, but after a few listenings i found it pretty nice, it will work on the dance floors without a doubt.
To The Single Trax Review:
1. Psychotic Episode
Ok here we go, nice and smooth intro, with perfect atmosphere sounds and a later on a fullon bassline, as i thought this would sound before i putted it in my stereo. 140/145bmp stuff. So.. the track goes on crispy delayed sounds and full on melodies, beatyfull track to start up with.
2. Distorted Reality
Wow this one has more power in the kick and bass, really pure dance machine sounds, reminds me of some silicon sound/dynamic stuff... great breaks and atmosphers parts! really good one.. maked me smile
3. Game Over
Easy start, no shocking kick in start here, just build up sounds, to later on release the Well done bassline, wich this time are more night acceptable, think its a little faster then the otherones and.. hmm what to say, its a great track 
4. Digital Illusion
AWSOME intro here, and the first sounds are really well done, awsome squirk formed tweaks, and full on temp bass.. This one has everything a fullon track is supose to have, great parts all over, the melodie in the end are really beatyfull! i can imagen this one in a open air next summer BOMB
5. Resident Evil
Man, this dude does sounds so clean and crystal clear, i donno what he use it has a protocultured bassline =) and all those nice sounds, great production and i can hear a Panick sample at the middle of it  finnishing of with a tempo raiser melodie and im still smiling..
6. Lock Down
as usual, good start, the sounds kinda reminds me of some space cat stuff, pumping bass, atmosphere that will make u fall in trance and ya foots dance, screaming fx fast breaks. Great one!
7. Engage
This is also a more night time track, alot of sounds, melodies and fast tempo, this guy load up hes trax to the max, it will not make u feel bored untill the power goes of. this one has a little bit of absolum influences imo.
8. Toxic Game
Also this one are loaded to the ears with killer melodies, fx, samples! crunchy sounds and its pure dancefloor track, so far no trax have lacked of the dance floor rate, great break and build ups. There are some screaming girl sound or something in this that will kill your ears at a high volume
9. Flash Daddy
Last track, its a dnb/ambient one.. cool bass steps, and, well this stuff doesnt do it for me, but its a cool track, great melodies and trippy sounds
ok folx..
For u people that are sick and tired of the new age fullon isra way, i´ll not recommend this, but for u fullon to the bone dj´s that played this type of morning sounds, i would say its a must have.. could make a party move for sure..
My Fav Trax

Your review is straight to the point....
I also didn't expect much from this CD but it surprised me. Yes, it has the "regular" full on sounds but for some reason it's different... Can't really put my finger on it, but it's really different from the Dynamic,Melicia etc...
I was starting to loose faith in full on recently, but this CD (and the latest Suria) were a nice reminder that good full on can kick some serious ass 
waiting to hear it on the dancefloors....

amazing album!!!
Kefir is the new light of the goa scene,very psycadelic & mysterious stuff this new album.
Space monkey is a different concept for the psy music with a intelligent & perfect atmosphere,
but for sure this new album will pump & kill every dance floor worldwide!!
for me its not the typical Israeli goa full on stuff with a great production. I hope to hear more good stuff for Space monkey.
my favorite tracks are:1,3,4,5,8,9
rate 8.5/10

Wow, i played this to death when it was released, and i just listened to it again today after a long, and it still sounds so fresh.
Beautiful morning sounds, completely different vibe. Unfortunately this album got drowned in the flood of mediocre releases earlier in the year. If you have this lying around somewhere, dust it off and stick it in your player, it deserves a second listen.
Great job, space monkey.

Perhaps not the best full on album ever released, but certainly in the better half of the full on released nowadays. Heard him live in Copenhagen last weekend, and it was surprisingly good.
Why hasn’t this been hyped as much as the more dull and uninspiring full on releases lately? Weird.
7/10 from me.
