Neo Logic "Groovelogic"


Top level Music reviews Psytrance reviews

Candyflip Records is out with a new album, this time the debut album by Neo Logic (Micha Yossef and Mishel Bitton). They have also released quite a lot of music before under names like Safi Connection, Echotek, Echologic, Switch and Central Nerve. With other words, this is one of their many side projects, but Safi Connection and Neo Logic is their main projects. They are from Israel, and are known for mostly full on psytrance, but with this project they try out music on the progressive side of trance.

The first track starts slow and dubby. A female voice tells us something, and after a couple of minutes, some stumpy, pretty slow progressive rhythms start rolling. We get a lot of echo effects and the female voice comes back several times during the track. After a while, we also get some tribal drums above the groove. Track 2 is a pretty floating progressive trance track. Groovy, stumping beats, and some floating atmospheric parts going in and out of the track. In this track we also get some funky house influences of melodies and sounds. Slow progressive trance for dancing in the sun. Track 3 is a bit more drifting and pumping, with some cool tribal drums above. Here we get mostly rhythms, and we get less melodies and sounds than the other tracks on this album. Track 4 has a bit heavier bass line, and some more floating vibes above the groove. There is also a voice echoing in there, which is pretty cool, but it could easily have been a bit more varied.

Track 5 is the most groovy track so far on this album. This one has a bit darker vibe. Very drifting, with smooth sounds jumping in and out of the track. One of my favourite tracks on this album. Track 6 has this tribal progressive drift again. Groovy bass line, with light drums tripping above. Track 7 has a lot of funky house vibes mixed with a faster progressive bass line. Track 8 sounds like a mix of it all. Tribal influences, housy vibes, some floating parts and a progressive trance drift. Pretty happy track. Track 9 continues this style too. The rolling bass line is quite heavy, and some of the sounds are pretty funny. The last track we get on this album is a chill out track. Pretty experimental chill, with breaky beats, some funky sounds and weird melodies. Cool finish on the album.

These two israliens surprises us this time with a progressive trance album. The trance music that comes out of Israel is mostly full on, so it is interesting to hear some progressive trance from that part of the world.
