Review:

Here comes the 5th release of the French label Mandala records, let’s see if it has all that energy :)

Track 1 is done by Perplex and Kido and starts the compilation in a powerful fullon mood...it has a strong and fat bassline, with that Perplex’s sounds and synths...nice and energetic breaks, all together making a very rhythmic and danceable track.

Track 2 is a remix of Bio done by E-Fact...its a bit more psychedelic, has some acid synth sounds coming in and out, all in a pacific and morning atmosphere.

Track 3 is the second one from Perplex and my favourite here...it has a strong and killer bassline, some industrial sounds and after the last break it has some synths that makes me remember some Skazi old stuff...it really works on the dancefloors :)

Track 4 is a collaboration of Contra and Zion...it take us again to a more dark and psychedelic introspective side of trance...it has a nice construction, wiith some energetic breaks, nice one.

Track 5 is another collaboration, this time with Elec 3 and Ananda Shake...it has a groovy bassline, some rhythmic and energetic pads coming in, lots of effects, Elec 3 style.

Track 6 is done by Plasmotek and is called “Take It as It Come”...it has a strong and continuous bassline, night time melodies, some acid and fat synths, makes me remember some south african artists.

Track 7 is another E-Fact track, this time an original one...it has a groovy bassline, some melodic and quiet synth sounds, nice for the morning hours but a bit boring.

Track 8 is done by Total Sickness and is a bit more fast (149bpms)...it has a groovy bassline, some exotic and sunny melodies, makes me remember a bit of 1200 Mics style...just think that could be a bit more slow.

Track 9 is done by Sky Fiction and makes you feel that your heart is pumping normally again...it has a lot of psychedelic elements, some goa old school melodies, just a bit similar.

Track 10 is done by Interactive and with track 3 makes my second great hit of this release...it has a groovy and rhythmic bassline, really beautiful and inspiring morning melodies, great choice for ending the compilation.

In general we have here a great and diverse compilation, with many different and good styles of trance...my favourites are 1, 3 and 10 :)

7/10
