│ ┌─────────────────────────────[ ReleaseNotes ]───────────────────────────┐ │
│ : : │
│ Tracklist is same as on Promo released by gEm, but, as they wrote in the │
│ nfo, mastering was bad. So enjoy our Retail. │
│ │
│ San Francisco Bay Area label, Spectral Concepts, returns with a breath │
│ of fresh air. After much success and interest around the world with │
│ their debut compilation, American Rotation, Spectral Concepts is proud │
│ to present, Oxygen - a deep inhalation of progressive modern psychedelic │
│ dance floor sounds. As we are experiencing even more today, the sound we │
│ have once defined as Trance is becoming cross-bred with many influences, │
│ moods, and genres. │
│ │
│ Oxygen is a reflection of this movement: nine tracks from American & │
│ Northern European Trance artists. The air starts flowing with Neum, an │
│ artist from Philadelphia who is already shaking dance floors around the │
│ world with his smooth, yet pumping progressive style. His music has │
│ already been released on many labels globally, such as Spiral Trax │
│ Intl., Flow, and Medium Records. We are proud to debut two excellent │
│ tracks from this cutting edge producer. │
│ │
│ Next we introduce a new and promising act to the Spectral Concepts │
│ artist pool, Operating System. A very unique project between two │
│ brothers who have shared a lifetime of music together, Jeremiah Menez │
│ (Minimlaniml) & Peter Menez (DJ Ima). Both are DJs who had their dance │
│ floor roots sprout from their love for House music and then were later │
│ exposed to psychedelic/Trance flavors.... in turn creating a nice blend │
│ of progressive sounds that reflects bits and pieces of their musical │
│ past. │
│ │
│ Hailing from Sweden, we are excited to present two artists from the │
│ MPDQX label group, Aircrash (Baluns Records) & Etnoscope (Digital │
│ Structures), both artists well known and always representing a fresh and │
│ innovative sound. │
│ │
│ Next we have another important artist from our own pool, Phosphene. Our │
│ A&R, DJ Ghreg on Earth always brings his unique sonic visions to the │
│ dance floor. After a well received DJ set at this year's Ypy Poty │
│ Festival in Brazil, Phosphene gives you a deep progressive morning gem, │
│ inspired by one of Brazil's most beautiful coastal towns, "Paraty." │
│ │
│ IndiaDrop, another American artist to have an impact on the global │
│ groove, takes "Moonraker" from his debut album, "Backwards into Chaos", │
│ which was released worldwide on his own label, Galactica Records, in │
│ October 2002. │
│ │
│ Next we'd like to introduce another new project to the Spectral Concepts │
│ artist pool, Eels & Escalators. This is a collaboration project between │
│ two good friends, Jeremiah Menez & Ed Roppo (Tendril), mixing their │
│ individual styles with a gallon of funk and intoxicating rhythms. │
│ │
│ Last but certainly not least, one of our top artists-and an up and │
│ coming one to watch out for-Wormfood-entices the dance floor with a more │
│ minimal progressive approach than what we are used to hearing from him, │
│ yet spawns a whole new direction in his musical production. │
│ │
│ All tracks are superbly mastered by Sebastian Mullaert (Son Kite, │
│ Minilogue, Ooze) & Marcus Henriksson (Son Kite, Minilogue) at High-Hat │
│ Studios, Malmoe, Sweden. Enjoy this new breath of life! │
