Various - TIP - The Story flac mp3 download

The TIP crew have found the time right to release the history of TIP! TIP has been one of the pioneer labels in the goa/psytrance scene, and with this double compilation they show us some of their fantastic tracks from the early beginning and up till recent. With the two cds, you get a fat booklet with pictures of some TIP flyers and pictures of a lot of the rare old TIP releases. TIP has also become a very popular label for trance collectors, because of the good quality releases in the early days. In the booklet, you can read about each track. The first TIP party was in London in December 16th 1990, when Raja Rams daughter Sastra invited 200 friends and Raja Ram invited 200 of his friends to a party at the London Meat Market in Farringdon. The label appeared in the fall of 1994, and TIP became popular pretty fast. Personally I have got all these tracks on earlier TIP releases, but it`s fun to have for a collector, especially because of the story in the booklet. If you haven`t got the TIP releases, this compilation is a must have. No bad tracks on this one, and that`s pretty rare these days. However, this also seemed to be a goodbye to their old sound, before they turned into a more commercial sounding full on label.
