Crop Circles ~ 'Tetrahedron' :: DAT Records Release Date: December 2008


At long last, the long-awaited album of legendary material from the hatchling days of Goa trance is here. Crop Circles is a name which carries the weight of six true forefathers of the genre. Dating back a decade, this project which has been whispered about to the day is composed of Etnica, Pleiadians, and Lotus Omega. Names which have shaken the globe and whose works helped forge a new way of music worked together since 1996. Their debut album, Tetrahedron, is like a newly recovered treasure chest of dancefloor movers from times past, is composed entirely of tracks once thought lost, yet are now found, collecting dust on DATs and busted hard drives, and brought once again to life through cutting-edge remastering techniques.

DAT Records, an aptly named label for this release, have dug through the annals of analog and digital archives to bring the world the power and respect that tracks of the scope and talent such as these richly deserve. Eight massive, well-produced tracks from six of the truest masters and pioneers of the Goa sound all working together to produce music that still to this time is ahead of its day, yet now available to people worldwide to appreciate the energy that these sounds represent.

Track by track:

Lunar Civilization (Pleiadians Remix)
This is the monster hit, simply one of the most incredible tracks ever composed. It took six people and a Shamanic Cuban babe reading some mystical lines written by the guys to create this awesome track. It simply is a perfect amalgamation of psychedelic madness, with its crescendo into an apex of complexity unheard anywhere else. This track is one of the reason why this CD had to come out.

Antonomasia (Lotus Omega Remix)
A beautiful night track, with loads of lines, which is less melodic than the first one but surely gets to you after a few listens, powerful and very well arranged by the mind of Franco Rossi (Francesco d'Amato).

Daffy Duck (On The Comet)
Ever wonder how your favourite Looney Tunes character would feel if he were to ride a comet? Well, here you get the answer: he would feel wicked and hypnotized, and that's exactly the feeling you have in this track.

Cerealogy
The ancient rite of Cerealogy study, a mystery hereby explained, a very well produced tracks that was never properly heard around.

Pentagon
The second monster hit of the album is a track that is very powerful, melodic, psychedelic and thrilling. It is one of my favourite tunes as it has some deep dark vibes that are very well expressed.

Classic Process (Hale-Bopp)
The comet discussed in all communities back in the nineties is the theme for this marvellous piece.

Full Mental Jackpot (Etnica Remix II)
The third instant hit, a distinctive Etnica track, that was wisely remixed and played only at live sets. Goa Gil himself played this often in the beach of Anjuna and it was adored by many listeners. A true gem!

No More Singles
The funniest title ever for a track and the perfect closure for this incredible journey. Have a safe ride!
