This second cut [Dialogue] goes very deep into my heart as it reminds me of my times in Anjuna Beach in the early and mid 90's..........a very special and enlightening time. Kind of reminds me of the feel of the song Trancemission by Genetic.

this is brilliant 130ish bpm goa trance! very slow but nice to hear!

It's always pleasant to see what the genre used to be about back in the old days. Encens peak was around 1995-1996. The project indeed reminds the likes of Darshan, Crop Circles, UX and other more or less known darkish oldschool goa acts. Sadly, Encens was forgotten by simple mortals and only elitists preserved the memory for projects like these, although some might want to argue on this matter... It's always an endless discussion and pointless debate to argue whether certain project was overshadowed and another was overrated. As a result, we are inevitably forced to face straight facts: something we dislike gets public recognition, and something we like more than another gets ditched. This is a good, in my opinion, a really good oldschool goa release that comes directly from the underground, which perhaps would be more definitely to call "dark goa". Still, despite its relative obscurity, I'm pretty confident, that ten years ago Encens was fairly respectful project in the scene. For those who value oldschool, this, as well as other Encens releases, are a must.
