Triptych "Lost Paradises" Turbo Trance Records 2003 (TTRCD007)

3. Nitrogen & Oxygen
4. Sunflowers
5. The Path
6. Recording The Report
7. Accelerator (Paradise Mix)
8. Pegasus
9. One Shot
The first track is a floating, very melodic trance track that for sure will make people travel on the dance floors. It builds up and become a bit full on too. Track 2 called Contact sounds pretty good too, but he should have cut out the cheesy voice saying the word Contact, all the time. Away from that, a deep atmospheric track going in a very drifting way with several crazy melodies. After a few minutes we get a James Bond sample too, probably just as a humoristic ingredient. Track 3 sounds more like the Israeli kind of full on trance that we have got pretty much of this year. But, Triptych adds some more interesting stuff, like Indian sitar and a ton of crazy psychedelic sounds. Good full on melodic track. Track 4 is a groovy morning track with a very floating vibe. After a while it goes over to more familiar full on sound.
Track 5 has a very light and happy melody. But the rest of the track is pretty dark and banging, so the melody really lightens things up when it comes into the track. One of the best tracks on this album in my opinion. Track 6 is the fastest track on the album. Full on, pumping trance. The melody you get here is really trippy! Track 7 has some very pleasant sounds. A groovy track, with a ton of light psychedelic sounds swirling above. Totally melodic. Track 8 goes a bit darker in the beginning. Very stumpy with mostly dark sounds, but after a while, the happy melodies takes over. He finishes the album with a chilled track. Beautiful floating sounds, with slow tribal drums above. You also get some tribal voices, guitar sounds, and several other relaxing melodies. A nice finish on the album.
Triptych is for sure an artist you should keep an eye on in the future. This album is pretty good to be his first. Here you get mostly full on melodic Israeli style, but in a different way than most other artists.
