Absolute ing quality. Every track is great, and thats rare for an album thesedays.

Samples etc there.

Get this now.

Album of the year so far, and I dont see much on the horizon that could come close to this (even the 00.db album will have trouble topping this).

I wish more music like this was made.

Agree! Excellent find here, would definatly try and get it.

Any UK outlets you know of though for it? I don't mind ordering from the sites given by Sunstrip, but just wondering if there is a UK based distributor?

www.psyshop.com - based in Germany but very good and very reliable.

quite like this. can you recommend any other similar recent melodic goa in this vein? (as in last few years)

it (the genre) isn't something i can see myself getting into full-time simply because i don't like the kickdrums in most of the tracks, but i find it pretty inspiring all the same & want to start adding goa influences to my productions :)

Check out other stuff from Suntrip Records, and the now defunkt Metapsychic records. Those really are the only two that release this kind of stuff :(

Absolutely brilliant album! It hooks you right from the beginning with the Egyptian vocals, I almost my pants. :nervous:

As for future plans, I can mention that we are working on a 3rd album and an ambient release. Which one will be finished first
I cannot say, but more tracks are in the pipeline, and we'll just have to see how long it takes to finish up.
I can promise however you will not have to wait for another 7 or 8 years until the next release.

That probably means they might release some kick ass tune in some compilation? *fingers crossed*

Anyway, the album kicks ass. Every track is worth from the first until the last second. Just like the best goa should be!

There are two more labels that release goa trance nowadays - Old Is Gold and Phototronic Records :)

As is the case with a lot of "modern" goa, the music on 9th is derivative and predictable, which is good because it sounds exactly like every goa-lover wants it to sound, and bad for the same reason, it's been done so many times before, it doesn't stand out and it's quite forgettable. But for what it is it's very good and very well executed. I very much enjoyed it.

This is nothing special. If RA wanted to make a memorable comeback 8 years later they could have at least updated their sounds bit... This sounds like they made it 8 years ago.

Poo on this, I'll stick to their amazingly great 1st album.
