<Psytrance> Music Should Be Felt Not Heard is Chabunk’s (aka Gareth Webb) first full length album and has an interesting mix of progressive and psychedelic sounds. Gareth is from Cape Town and an excellent psytrance DJ that has been playing at many local festivals. The opening track Conjugate is a perfect start to a set where the different sounds are added layer by layer. The throbbing beat of Solar Hamiltonian and spacey synth made my stomping feet itch. The Ante has been brilliantly created with a perfect balance between progressive and psychedelic sounds. A banging and occasionally throbbing beat is complimented with more full-on sounds in the stunning Sinuessa. With the vibrations emanating from my speakers it is clear why the title track is named, Music Should Be Felt Not Heard. Included on this album are two tracks Chabunk has expertly remixed, one by Headroom and another by Flowjob. I love the jittery synth sounds of Horizontal Reflection with the deep bass flowing through. The very clean sound of Conclusion is testament to the great work this artist is producing. The album ends on a high with another banging progressive track, Perturbation Theory. Recommended.
