First out is a pretty slow going stumpy morning track. Very pleasant tempo and some nice sounds, but not very much variation. Track two has a very powerfull stumpy bass line. Your neighbours will probably scream of anger when you play this. You get some interesting melodies, but away from that I think this track sounds a bit weak. I think there should have been put something more into it. Track 3 has a nice floating start, before the rolling bassline is back. This track has some more melodies. A lot of morning vibes and some more variation. Best track so far on the album. In track 4 there is a voice sample I also have heard in a track by Side Effect released on Trancelucent Productions. This track is pretty good, but there are some really cheesy synth riffs that sort of ruin parts of the track. Track 5 starts with a really beautiful floating sound. This track gets a little better with more psychedelic sounds, and a bit more trippy sound picture, with a crazy melody in the middle of the track. But then, after about five and a half minute, we get a totally cheesy part. I hate it when this is used in psytrance. Cheesy euro dance melody. The rest of the track is good, so its sad with this cheesy part.
Track 6 is bit more full on. Some more scary sounds and more variation. In this one they have cut out the cheesy parts, and things become much better. In my opinion, the best track on this album. Great melodies and nice variation, perfect for the morning. Track 7 is even more full on, but still melodic and very morning style. Track 8 starts really nice with some really twisted sounds. This track is a bit more in the progressive style, but with a lot of variation. Nice one! The last track on this album is another stumpy morning track. Very dreamy melodies. Some how, it reminds me a bit of Cosma in style. Pleasant finish of the album.
This is an album for those of you who are looking for some new melodic morning trance from Israel. The last half of the album is the best. At some places, the melodies fall a bit over on the cheesy side, but most of this album sounds pretty good.
