Excellent. Great. Dynamic Psy Trance
like I'm fond of. Crackers for dancefloor. Heavy stomping soundz, great
bassline and discreet vocals which are giving to these titles a mysterious
taste.

This is a new EP available on CD from Candyflip. Four tracks in total
one of which is a remix by Igneous Sauria. Track1 is called 'Drastic Plastic'.
Throbbing stabs of bass and a very hard kick but it bangs at a plodding
speed. Voices come out of the darkness and the high pitched drum smacks
have an outstanding sound. Low guitar like noises hide in the undergrowth.
The break has a snappy punch about it and a sort of backward record scratching
noise after which things get a little harder. Packed full of subtle noises
we head off to a slightly more industrial vibe. Its all deep and I suppose
quite simple but there is definitely something special about this progressive
track. The production is great as well. Track2 is called 'Red Whisper'.
The into has really scary voices and the bass throbs harder than the previous
track with more fire in its soul. Super sharp hats and dark waves of industry
at the back support this progressive tune. The break is really creepy
like the intro was and after it pushes you straight back into the darkness.
The bass builds with power and at times it gets pretty intense and might
make you quiver. There is also some heavy drumming which seems to keep
hitting all the other sounds back into their positions. Getting stronger
with the percussion pushing things harder towards some tribal beats that
have good rhythm. I got lost more than once inside this track. Next is
track3 which is called 'Eye Doll'. Wow what a beautiful beginning with
its emotional waves and low energy. That voice is just great as is the
bas dropping down with the fuller energy. Light tribal taps float over
a full sound and when those hi-hats come in we glide off with some amazing
noises to spin us round and change our direction. Are those sea gulls?
It really is the funky vibe that gets things moving and traveling. Drone
provide a lot more power in this track and they do it so well. All the
sounds that float in, out and all around are quality. There is a lot to
pay attention to especially the darkish drum & bass which adds a new
angle. Progressive and at times teasing this rumbling tune is my favorite
of the four. Lastly we have 'Contagious' which is remixed by Igneous Sauria.
A twisted ride on a steam engine as the sound bellows through the smoking
melody. An organic start that builds straight away as the hats come marching
in. Drumming gets things very trippy as different sounds all seem to be
heading for the middle to meet up and get down together. This strange
echoing sound comes in and repeats itself, for ages, and its like its
going to knock all the other sounds out of its way just so it can be the
focus of attention. No its not a nasty noise, in fact it grabs hold of
you and messes up your mind. It manages to completely take over by the
end. The whole CD is well produced progressive trance.

Drone‘s maxi "drastic plastic" conveys the impression
its mission was to show "the dark side of power" to the listener.
The four tracks create a very deep, thrilling atmosphere but always with
drive and they really punch on the dancefloor. Additionally each track
holds a significant "oh"-effect plus lots of groove.

Hypnotic savage rhythms and a touch by Chris Igneous. Desolate industrial
surroundings and wild scenes from your nightmares….yet the lost
melody is still here…Technoid shamanism!
Haris P. – FREEZE Magazine (GR)
A new act on this new label that is being presented with this four tracks
cd single. The music style is dry and progressive. Despite the crystal
sound and its good production, this minimal style is dramatic and sinister
with very few melodies suitable for melancholic winter sessions. Samples
from the underworld are used in the tracks that tie down the listener
with a techno feeling accompanied by a very good bassline and good synchronisation.
However, the joy that we are used of getting out from our favourite trance
music is absent here. This release is for the listeners who are into harder
psy trance.
