Spun by
DJ Tristan, the first volume of the Twisted label's
Twisted Sessions culls ten tracks from the worlds of trance and techno. With Trickster's "Audio Evangelists,"
Tristan provides one selection that involves some of his own production work. Several tracks -- including Allaby's "Spiritually Correct," as well as
Aphid Moon's "Head Candy" -- are unique to the disc. Heavy in psy-trance, the mix rolls through effect-laden trance productions with beefy, rush-inducing arrangements. Not exemplary by any stretch, the disc will likely only be enjoyed by those who come into it with knowledge of some of these producers. Other tracks come from Twisted Allstars,
Prometheus, and Yooza. ~ Andy Kellman
