Liquid Flow - Psyonic Storm

I rarely hear new-school Goa, "neogoa" that really gets to me in the way that it used to. A couple of years ago I was really into this kind of music, and I tried to get hold of pretty much everything that was released. My passion for trance-music hit a peak when the Goa-sound first came in early-mid nineties and I had really missed that sound and the structure of music ever since. However, nowadays I find the new goa-sound to be a bit boring, almost always sounding the same. But after hearing a few new tracks from Liquid Flow, I can say that he is an artist that for me brings something different to the table. At least there is a certain something that my ears and soul really like to experience. This track - Psyonic Storm - appears on a compilation called Space of Power, a double-CD released by a label called Global Sect Music, their first release by the look of it. Other famous neogoa-artists have made contributions; E-Mantra, Artifact303, Filteria, Goasia, some of them with multiple tracks. The other track by Liquid Flow - Chaotic, is also really good, but this track Psyonic Storm is without a doubt one of the best new school-Goa tracks released in awhile, and I urge you to check out the whole compilation if you have the possibility.



Tomislav, a.k.a Liquid Flow, if from Zagreb, Croatia and began his musical journey at the age of 12, playing the piano in elementary school. His teacher though him of great talent and offered him private lessons for free, but Tomislav was not interested in learning notes; but rather jam his own melodies on a synth. For the next 3 years he rarely played the piano, and wasn't planning to pursue this passion. But by accident at the age of 15 Liquid Flow discovered a game "Music 2000"; a simple sequencer made for the playstation. Amazed at the possibilities of making music using software, he quickly saved up for his first PC and soon discovered the world of computer music; experimenting with sounds, melodies and beats. Soon after, Tomislav visited his first trance party; hearing the sound of goa trance for the first time. At first, he only listened to goa, but over time he fell in love with the sound and started working on his own tracks. The Liquid Flow project was created in 2001 and during the first years there were a few releases, mostly on free digital labels, including a melodic track on the first SectionZ compilation. By 2006 the project took off and Liquid Flow joined Shivlink records; releasing a digital EP "Goa Terminal". Many releases followed, some of which include tracks on Shivlink, Cronomi records, etc. The work on the album started in 2006 and after 3 years in their making it Was released by Kagdila Records in October 2009.

Cosmic Replicant – Supersensitive EP





This 4-track EP was released in april, 2012 by down-tempo producer Cosmic Replicant (real name Pavel), living in Kazan, Russia. That is pretty much everything we know about him. The label is called Pureuphoria Records and you can download the whole mini-album for free through Ektoplazm by following this LINK. First track Chromosphere is my absolute favorite, and although I had it in my playlist for awhile I must have missed it cause now I can´t stop listening to it. Absolutely my type of chill, with a very dreamy repetitive melody, nice rhythmic parties, and loads of different string-parts giving that cosmic spacy vibe, like you are flying in space in wonder. Track no.2 - Inner Fly follows in the same direction, although not as dreamy and spacey, but with more strings, a bit more focus on rhythms and a sort of 303-bassline going on in the background - still yummy though. No.3 then - Supersensitive - the title-track gives me an old school trancy ambient feel, and is more experimental with a nice arpeggiator filtrating through space, vibrating strings, noisy sounds and distorted voices in the background. Last track Space Creator is a more traditional psy-chill track with heavy 4/4 bassdrum, a sort of goa-bassline, psychedelics sounds, floating melodies, loads of focus on the beats but still with filtrating strings giving you that spacey feel. All in all a super-nice EP and that it is free for download does not really make it worse :) Say thanks to the artist!
