Horns & Hoofs Entertainment is out with a new compilation, compiled by Fuzzion (Vladimir Kozlov) from Russia. Fuzzion is known for several tracks on various compilations on different labels like TIP.World etc. Russia is known for their minimal dark trance, and that`s where Fuzzion takes us too.

First out is a track by two guys called Breakpoint. They give us the dark Russian style, with mostly hard pumping rhythms and some noisy psychedelic sounds in between. Pretty varied track. Track 2 takes us a step closer to techno music. Drifting techno rhythms with scary sounds swirling around. Reminds me a bit of The Delta, but this is not as massive. Track 3 by Neoris is my favourite track on this album. Totally scary night time trance with deep rolling rhythms and a very trancey sound picture. Dark and pleasant for the dance floor. Then we get a track by Fuzzion himself. This gets even darker and harder. Very hard pumping. No light sounds, just scary vibes all the way. Track 5 by Cybered starts floating before the brutal rhythms hits you in the face and rolls you through totally scary soundscapes. Track 6 is also by Cybered. This one reminds me a lot of The Delta style. Dark and noisy in a scary way.

Then Fuzzion gives us his track called Fuzzball, here remixed by Neoris. Techno influenced trance with some sort of tribal effects and a very metallic sound picture. Track 8 is by Weird Walker. He goes the techno influenced direction too, but with a lot of noisy psychedelic sounds thrown in. Some parts of this track sounds pretty funny, almost like jazz. Interesting track. Track 9 by Metalogic is probably the weirdest track on this compilation. It goes pretty slow. Another very techno influenced track. Track 10 by Vacuum Stalkers goes a more traditional stumpy way. Nice psychedelic sound picture. Fuzzion finishes this compilation with a chilled track made by him self. Pretty different from most other chill out I have heard. Sort of dark and scary, but relaxed and chilling.

This compilation is probably perfect for those of you who likes scary and dark night time trance, or a bit minimal techno influenced trance. For me, this gets almost too dark, but it will for sure fit to some moments. One of the darkest compilations I have heard.
