The debut album from breakthrough artists Galactic Agents takes you from the dancefloor to the mountaintop with an intoxicating amalgam of uptempo sounds from around the planet. Cutting-edge rhythms cross the musical spectrum of world dance, electronica, trance, and chillout.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly a cool album!, February 9, 2003

By 

"eye-sus" (Sweden) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Human Contact (Audio CD)

The combination of electronica and the didgeridoo, the instrument from Australia's Aboriginal population is magnificent and creates something truly interesting that sounds both new and old at the same time. What they like to call "New Age" these days.

I think this CD will do great for people who like to do what Swede's call "frigörande dans" - I have no idea what the English term would be, but when you use your body to the rhythm of music to free your inner powers, a form of meditation through dance! The music is upbeat so that's why I think frigörande dans will be a great choice to use this music for ;-)

Combining tribal, mythical sounding music with the newer rave music fits really well with me apparently... I've never been into the rave groups, even though I've always liked what I've heard when I've been in those type of shops - looking for incense and other cool inventory stuff! hehe

As the title implies, you should get this one. ;-) It's a little like an introduction to culture and other ethnic groups throughout our planet, possibly a hint of the future as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buddhist-like Mystic Fusion Trance with Flowing Native American Accents, August 19, 2006

By 

Sea Knight (Northern CA, United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Human Contact (Audio CD)

An excellent cd. It sounds more like a Native American band done right with the intrigue of Tibetan Buddhism than a typical new age cd. There is no hokiness. It trances prettily in a masculine-feminine balanced way- perhaps somewhat more masculine though not meant to mean "manly". There are not any songs to skip over. I got tired of it over the years at times, but now it sounds special and is favored again. There are some wonderful exotic moments worth the investment-- trance voices and flute-sounds in danceable rhythms, toned like Enigma or B Tribe slightly but faster-paced and I enjoy it better usually, especially with the emphasis on different spiritualities and personal titles yet not getting into the listener's mind, just being there good.
