Juno Reactor – Transmissions

Any plans for a reissue? One of my favorite albums from the 90's.

Man to Ray.........what to say. When Goa Gil put this on in San Francisco in possibly 1992 [because he got early releases], but definitely in 1993, I knew immediately that my world was about to change. You know it's a long way from Depeche mode, OMD, Bronski Beat, New Order and Erasure to Juno Reactor. But this was part of the electronic dance path I traversed over the course of 10 years til I hit that moment of truth on the dance floor.........and this song was that moment of truth......and Goa Gil was the messenger. October of 93 I was in Anjuna Beach and 4 months later I was spit out transformed. As fate would have it, I met the creator of this song at Goa Gil's house in Anjuna Beach in October of 1993. What a trip!! Destiny can be a beautiful thing. So much Gratitude to Gil and Ariane and Juno Reactor. You all changed my life in ways that can never be repaid. I hope that we all share another dance before this life is over...........If not........see you on a dance floor somewhere around the cosmos. First song will be "Landing".

Amazing 'Trance'' (hem hem) Album in my collection since the early 90s, one of the only concrete reference points I have to that time haha. Truly a ground breaking release that paved the way for a lot of poor imitations. Man To Ray, Acid Moon, 10,000 miles are the standouts here but it is a great LP. It has sure jumped in price in the last year on here!

Ground breaking album by legendary artist Ben Watkins. This Juno Reactor release has an interstellar earth & moon orbital type feel. Production is quite excellent on this early trance era effort. Greatly under rated album. My 2nd favorite Juno album after Bible of Dreams. Classic sound that is timeless. Makes me feel like soaring through the clouds in a home-made spaceship.

Agree with comments here

Beautiful early album

Standout for me is Luna-tic especially Acid Moon . Just lovely.

Both to my cochlea use a similar acid line

Sublime stuff

very nice.
A milestone.

When this was released, us afficianados of techno called this music "progressive techno". Now it would very unfortunately be regarded as "trance". A milestone work of art, this album really turned my ears when I first heard it. The production is deep and varied, among the best ever in techno. Juno Reactor later achieved a great deal of notoriety when his work was included in the Mortal Kombat soundtrack in 1996, but by then the Juno Reactor formula had changed. This album is so much better than what most people have heard by Ben Watkins. I very strongly recommend giving this one a listen because of all the hundreds of releases I've heard since by hundreds of others, none have ever sounded so fresh. This was a monumental work of art. Tops in my books. Check it out!
