A Forest Called Mulu - Rain Dreamers (Mellow Trance Remix) [1997]

[Hensmon]

A Junkie XL alias and the only Trance track on the self titled downtempo/jungle/trip-hop album (which is so good).

Love this track, it builds so nicely, has a lovely Robert Miles type piano and just feels atmospheric and driving (in a chill way). Listen to how nice the kick is.

So light and crisp. Love it.
Those filtered stabs, breaks vs 4x4 beats, and the flow, style-wise it sounds like Starecase track.

 

[Archon]

Nice track from a lovely album. Preferred other tracks (Hollow and Tuu-Ru) from the album though. Really worth listening to the whole thing.

Post-relisten edit: Actually loving it! Wasn't overly drawn to it on the album, but after taking a couple of listens now, I can't seem to stop playing it. So nice! Reminds me of Banco de Gaia as well.

 

[Jetflag]

love that filtered arp sequence in the intro.

 

[Aquarium]

Dream deep jungle sounds. I dig it.

 

[Manofearth]

What an excellent track, with the true 90's Trance spirit.

 

[Motion]

Great find here. The font on the album cover tells you everything you need to know going into this.

 

[Archon]

A simple beauty. When you deconstruct it, it's really nothing special, but everything just works perfectly together.

Would love to hear more stuff like this!

Check out the entire album - it's not trance but the vibe is there. Also, Banco de Gaia's earlier albums (Last Train to Lhasa, Big Men Cry, Igizeh etc).
