DJ Solitare's Retro Goa Explorations, Episode 66 - Lunar Asylum: Shadow Five

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.
