First out is a quite fresh new artist called PsyNina (Nina K) who also had a track on the first Psytropic release. This one starts slow and relaxing, with some mystic, chilled vibes. After a couple of minutes, the beat finally starts rolling. Quite groovy, with bubbling, psychedelic sounds above the beat. Sort of dark style, with some German voice samples and floating soundscapes. Track 2 is by Thujon (Simon Schwendener) who has released tracks on Com.Pact and Strichcode. Here we get a groovy, full on track with less variation. Quite massive all the way with some echoing sounds. Track 3 is by SixSense (Benny Damski) from Israel who usually releases tracks on Utopia Records. Here we get a typical Israeli full on track. Quite clubby, with some female voice samples, a pumping bassline and light morning sounds. Pretty cool melodies in this one. Track 4 is a collaboration between Ultravoice (Avi Levi) and Kyo-Log (Leon Gossler), both from Israel. The track we get here is quite intense. A rolling full on track with a few old school influences, but I missed some more variation and creativity in this one. Track 5 is by Chromatone (Lawrence Hoffman) from the United States. Here we get a very groovy sound, but the rest sounds a bit simple to me.

Track 6 is a collaboration between two quite fresh groups, InterSys and Rhythmic Acid from Israel. This one starts with a relaxing, floating vibe, piano and a voice sample, before we get thrown into a massive full on bassline again. This track is pretty groovy, but it gets a bit too fluffy for my taste, especially the drug samples. Track 7 is by Elec3 (Igal Magitman & Roman Brisker) from Israel who has released tracks on many different full on labels lately. Here we get a typical Israeli full on track again. Some voice samples and some fluffy sounds. Very clubby style. Track 8 is by Ananda Shake (Osher Swissa & Lior Edri) from Israel who released their debut album (Emotion In Motion) on Utopia Records earlier this year. Here we get a pumping track with a quite dramatic vibe above. After a while, we get a fluffy morning melody which lightens things up. One of the best tracks on this compilation in my opinion. Track 9 is a track originally made by D-Tek (David Durst) from Mexico, but here we get a remix done by Audio-X (Thiago Peduti & Gabriel Rocco), which is a fresh duo from from Brazil. They throw us into much more intense and dark soundscapes. Totally full on, with almost nagging sounds. Dj Chemicus finishes this compilation with a darkpsy track done by Dark Nebula (Richard Rutter) from Australia. Dark vibe, with intense sounds all the way, but more melodic and more variation than I am used to hear from this guy.

As last time, we get mostly full on tracks from Israel here, of the kind that gets released a lot these days. If you love the Israeli full on sound these days, you might check it out.
