│ A winning collaboration between two of the psy-trance sceneσs best │
│ producers ╛ the legendary Simon Posford (HALLUCINOGEN) and the highly │
│ prolific Benji Vaughan (PROMETHEUS), Younger Brother is guaranteed to be │
│ huge at underground parties and in the homes of trance fans everywhere. │
│ Younger Brother is the latest trance project from Simon, who has been │
│ concentrating on his downtempo project Shpongle, and will be a welcome │
│ 4/4 dancelfoor return to his numerous dance music fans. Still he has │
│ brought the latest influences with him merging them together into a new │
│ blend of Shpongleσs slow beats and the faster dance of Hallucinogenσs │
│ trance. Prometheusσ influence further accentuates the eclectic nature of │
│ this project with a wide range of sounds, samples, effects and beats │
│ that create unique fusion of musical fantastia, from tribal chants, hard │
│ driving rhythms, electronic effects, trance mayhem and very british │
│ samples from the Isle of White festival to famous voices from the past │
│ reminiscent of Mr. Scruff, Lemon Jelly, and Coldcut nostalgic sampling │
│ or Royksopp with itσs mix of melodies and slow dancey beats. │
│ Younger Brother will be premiering their live show touring the UK, USA, │
│ Brazil, Mexico, Japan, Finland, and Canada. For bookings or press │
│ enquiries contact Twisted. │

│ │
│ Simon Posford and Benji Vaughan are finally out with their Younger │
│ Brother album on Twisted Records... │
│ │
│ Finally the long awaited Younger Brother album is out! Younger Brother │
│ is a collaboration between two of the most talented artists out there, │
│ Simon Posford (aka Shpongle and Hallucinogen) and Benji Vaughan (aka │
│ Prometheus and Process). We haven`t got many tracks from Younger Brother │
│ earlier, except for the famous Evil & Harm track, first released on the │
│ Demented compilation on Twisted in 2000 and several other compilations │
│ after that. In 2001 we got a Younger Brother track (The Receptive) on │
│ the Backroom Beats 1 compilation on Twisted and last year we suddenly │
│ got two great Younger Brother trance tracks on the Unusual Suspects │
│ compilation on Twisted (The Finger and Dwarves). Now is the full length │
│ album finally here, full of goodies as usual when these guys are │
│ involved. │
│ │
│ After seeing their fantastic live performance at Samothraki Dance │
│ Festival 2002, when they started the whole festival, I have had big │
│ expectations for this album. First out is a track I have never heard │
│ before. It starts mystical, with slightly scary sounds and weird │
│ beautiful voices. The voices becomes a bit like the Shpongle voice. │
│ Weird, beautiful and twisted. Then we get a beautiful guitar alike │
│ melody, which they twist into a really Shpongle like melody. Exactly │
│ when we needed it, a nice groovy dub rhythm comes in. Wonderful floating │
│ melodies and flute comes in, and it just sounds fantastic! The track │
│ varies all the way through, with floating relaxing parts, funky jazzy │
│ parts and just beautiful sounds coming in and out all the way, funny │
│ voice samples and wonderful melodies. Great track from beginning to end! │
│ With this one they prove again that they are the masters of sound. │
│ │
│ Track 2 is the beautiful track called The Receptive, first released on │
│ Backroom Beats 1 on Twisted in 2001 (TWSCD12). Here you get a slightly │
│ little difference from the Backroom Beats version, since that one was a │
│ Jacuzzi Mix. I can`t find much differences between the two versions. In │
│ this track, the vocals are the main ingredient. Simon Posfords │
│ girlfriend Michelle Adamson is singing with here beautiful voice, while │
│ Simon and Benji works out some great sounds and guitar. She is singing │
│ in a few Shpongle tracks too, and has a real talented for singing. Track │
│ 3 is the most famous Younger Brother track, Evil & Harm. This is │
│ released on so many compilations already, that I was a bit surprised to │
│ see it on this album. But it`s a beautiful track, and it fits really │
│ well into the album. Deep and heavy dub rhythms which leads into some │
│ kind of relaxing country guitar melody. After a few minutes you get this │
│ unbelievable beautiful crystal clear guitar (or is it harp?) alike │
│ melody. You also get some of those cool Shpongle voices. A classic. │
│ │
│ Track 4 is a track I have only heard one time before, in their live set │
│ at Samothraki 2002. It starts with those heavy dub rhythms before a │
│ beautiful voice floats into the track. This is Michelle again, with her │
│ great voice. The sound masters have twisted it around pretty much too, │
│ so you get that mystical Shpongle feeling again. You get some breaks, a │
│ weird techno voice, and suddenly you get this unbelievably beautiful │
│ melody, the heavy dub rhythms comes in and Michelle sings out again. I`m │
│ really impressed, and it gives me really nostalgic memories back to │
│ their opening at Samothraki. Track 5 starts off with some kind of latino │
│ melody or something. Then the light rhythms goes over to really heavy │
│ trance rhythms, working hard but pretty slow. If you are after some new │
│ Hallucinogen alike music, this one is for you. And it`s just great. It │
│ builds up from that weird latino vibe, into more and more overwhelming │
│ melodies. Really trippy music that will for sure make people float into │
│ dance. You get some nice twisted vocals in this one too. Another great │
│ memory from their live show. │
│ │
│ Track 6 is probably known for many people already, from the Unusual │
│ Suspects compilation. Here it is called Even Dwarves Start Small, but on │
│ the Unusual Suspects compilation it is just called Dwarves. It starts │
│ off with the psytraveller telling us that he has bin in jail several │
│ times and that he doesn`t like to work too often unless it`s for │
│ something groovy. Pretty cool voice samples. The rest of the track is │
│ even better. With the nice heavy Hallucinogenic rhythms and a build up │
│ with beautiful melodies, great sounds and vocals. Then you get this │
│ fantastic relaxing break in the middle, before they shoot us out into │
│ the trance rhythms again. Great track that was played a lot at parties │
│ around the world in 2002. Track 7 is another good memory from their live │
│ show. This one is not released before. It starts off with a sound sample │
│ of a man re living his old days by playing some loud rock music when he │
│ is alone. Then you get some cool rhythms, before a voice says; lets pump │
│ ourselves full of magic monkey juice and take a trip to space! Then the │
│ rhythms starts really pumping again and we get a cool trancey melody. │
│ The track builds up and varies all the way through. We get some really │
│ trancey melodies and a beautiful tribal voice screaming above the │
│ rhythms and sounds. A beautiful trance track I really want to hear at │
│ parties this summer. │
│ │
│ Track 8 is a track probably most people heard last year if they went to │
│ any trance parties. This is the Finger, which was released on the │
│ Unusual Suspects compilation on Twisted last year. A wonderful trance │
│ track full of great sounds, melodies, rhythms no one else makes and │
│ beautiful weird vocals fitting perfectly in. They finish this fantastic │
│ album with two short relaxing tracks. The first one is a slow dubby │
│ track, with a voice sample, a nice Shpongle melody and funky sounds. The │
│ last track fits really well with the track title. A totally relaxed │
│ track with mainly some relaxed harp and floating sounds in the back │
│ ground. │
│ │
│ This will probably be the best album to come out of 2003. There are only │
│ great tracks to be found here. This is a musical journey all the way │
│ through, since all the tracks fits so well together, so you can listen │
│ to it all the way through. An album with relaxing music for chilling out │
│ at home, and tracks for the dance floor. An album perfect for home │
│ listening. Just go buy it! │

│ As time goes by, the world matures. PsyCZ has matured and the scene has │
│ matured. PsyCZ has been releasing MP3 in VBR (using --r3mix with LAME │
│ 3.89, making it archival quality enough even from today's view) since │
│ end of 2001, and was met with skepticism. As time went by, more and more │
│ groups realised that VBR is superiur to CBR 192. Finally, now in 2004, │
│ VBR is allowed by the scene. │
│ PsyCZ in 2004 will also continue to bring you the finest psychedelic │
│ trance music from around the world, as we have done since 2001. │
