DJ Solitare's Retro Goa Explorations, Episode 65 - Unconscious Collective: Fluorostani Transcendance

The 65th in my Retro Goa Explorations series of videos in which I present some of my favourite 'Goa Trance' tracks from the '90s.
In this series, I go back to my first experiences in the Goa Trance electronic dance music movement starting in late 1994, drawing upon my recollections of hearing specific music at certain events and using my classical music background explore the elements that I believe make these tracks so great.
The series is currently focused on music I first encountered in the '96-97 season, starting in September 1996, when I moved to London. This track is one that was issued a couple of months before but which I first encountered while in London, where it was being played a LOT - a very popular quirky leading-edge production from a short-lived collaborative project: Unconscious Collective's classic Fluorostani Transcendance. I give some detailed background into the inspiration of the track (shared by co-producer Colin Bennun, in whose stooodio the track was made) before presenting the music with my observations; after some further observations, I then share the track without my commentary.
I shared quite a bit of background of the story and inspiration of the track that Colin had sent me but not all the technical details, so here is some more from his detailed notes:

[@GoaConstrictor]

@@DJSolitare my Facebook checking is not always timely... is 1PM PDT the new ongoing or was it a one-off change from 2?

[@DJSolitare]

@@GoaConstrictor it's been at 1 for several weeks now - occasionally my work schedule will mean moving it back to 2 ... check the youtube page on the day to see the countdown clock! for now it's set to 1.

[@markyazzigreen8082]
