The 66th in my Retro Goa Explorations series of videos in which I present some of my favourite 'Goa Trance' tracks from the '90s.
In this series, I go back to my first experiences in the Goa Trance electronic dance music movement starting in late 1994, drawing upon my recollections of hearing specific music at certain events and using my classical music background explore the elements that I believe make these tracks so great.
The series is currently focused on music I first encountered in the '96-97 season, starting in September 1996, when I moved to London. The track in this episode is one that appeared on the first promo copy of a CD that I was given in the first part of 1997 and is the first in this series featuring this project: Lunar Asylum's high-paced classic Shadow Five, from Matsuri's Resonance Mood compilation. After I give some detailed background into the project and track (shared by one of the group members), I present the music simultaneously with my observations; after some closing remarks, I then share the track without my commentary.

Resonance Mood was one of three compilations that changed the trajectory of my musical tastes, and my life. I had been fumbling around in the record bins at my favourite record stores, and although I had started to acquire bits of Goa, I was still just flirting with the genre. Then I bought Made on Earth (Blueroom Released), 3D (Tip Records) and Resonance Mood (Matsuri) all in one visit to Boom Records in Gastown (Vancouver), and nothing was the same after that. All three of these complications totally blew my mind at the time. I played songs from all three of these complications for the next decade, and I was particularly fond of this track, Lunar Asylum: Shadow Five. That said, I think my favourite from that specific compilation, both then and now, is the Manmademan track... Athalon. I hope you feature this song at some point too.

I love that modulated filter on the melody. After how many years? We finally got that "LSD" vibe. I mean there's so much in this I question who's behind it. Great compilation of all our favourite audiomemes by Lunar Asylum, here.

ADAT was an 8 channel digital multi-track recorder that meant someone could make layers of recordings before doing the final mix.

Amazing how in the 1990s you guys would have changed the history of evolution of human consciousness, and yet almost the entire population still remains unaware of what had taken place underneath their noses 😂

Don't get me started HAHAHHAHA I listen to the EDM stuff the big-name DJs filling stadiums are playing and it's more basic than what we were dancing to 30 years ago!
