lol, I saw more music for the jilted generation (basically the album +a cd of a few film clips) under the hardcore/punk/metal category of a music store, instead of the pop/rock section where all the house (and there wasn't any other edm stuff) cds were.

Not strictly gabber, but is anyone into schranz? This stuff is just great fun. It's like the ultimate ultra dancey stuff... but not cheesy and shit like you get in hardstyle. +theres a few artists like P.E.T. Duo that actually are pretty solid too. The pro mix hard techno vol. 1 is absolutely brilliant (you can find torrents for it btw)

My understanding of a concept album is the first album(s) by the artist(s) involved on a project where they are more experimental and all the tracks flow together and are behind a specific idea. Like infected mushroom the gathering or classical mushroom... regardless of if the actual track names are a list of the things involved.

Must admit, didn't like that blurry one at first... but after trying that... WOW! I think I'm going to have to print some of these out and put them on my wall as posters :drama: Got a hi res of the blurry one?

I think it'd be better to list tracks that aren't quite so try hard 80s... I mean that dirty 80s track. Comon. Heres a good one: Xerox and freeman-Are we happy 80s feely lead.

Don't forget also he did some work on the tracks of the original ambient TIP album.

bump again

Theres hardcore /core ending which is hardcore punk e.g. metalcore and then theres hardcore as in hardcore techno which is strongly associated with/close to gabba... e.g. hardcore breaks. Pretty sure grindcore has to do with thrash metal though LOLOL guys, more goth adds on this thread Psynews has a lot of goths?

Yes I think it is, however I also think house music very much has its own fashion and culture too. As does drum n bass (both to a far smaller extent though).

:wank: :drama:

Even still, they are quite nice quality... and erm... different? I like them.

@ "Bad mastering sounds good sometimes" Erm no, thats impossible... if it's bad then that means it isn't achieving the intended effect. If you meant a low level of mastering that's different. Anyway in the whole mastering debate, i've come to the conclusion that there's a pleasent medium between oldschool goa and pop music/overcompressed/something like mindsphere-inner cyclone. My favourites in terms of mastering however though are: Infected mushroom Intelligate-b.p. empire. Kind've low volume... but dynamics and such are just preserved really well... kind've sounds badish if you listen to it in a critical light but sounds more raw and more powerful in the best mood. Jikkenteki-flights of infinity... sounds kinda similar to infected mushrooms mastering. X-Dream best of. Were the older tracks remastered? Regardless... all the songs on that album except maybe first half of second cd sounds absolutely great. Things stand out, things sound very solid... lots of dynamics and such I guess. Or maybe I'm getting production quality mixed up.

I agree, psynews should ban all members under the age of 17 maybe 16

Wait, you like deadmau5? Oh god no. Shiva Chandra for psy minimal and Shiva shidapu (unrelated to shiva chandra btw) for goa minimal. Both absolutely awesome.

I feel fortunate that music for the jilted generation is the only album of theirs I own, but it is indeed very nice. I think I might buy their more jungley album before it though, I'd probably enjoy that more.

Theres a dnb remix of voodoo people by pendulam, however the original isn't. but yeh, I'm a fan of both too, I'll recomend some artists in a while.

Big beat Got no idea, Big beat More big beat Techno influenced big beat Are you sure your actually looking for drum n bass?

No, I know what you mean by the dark mood of dark dnb/darkstep etc, and its quite different... anyway set uploaded so you can see what I mean. It's definitely a crossover with dark ambient or at least a very very similar mood. http://www.filefactory.com/file/b4e541/n/U...ill_dnb_mix_mp3 and erm, chill probably wasn't the best word to describe it heh lol.

Well I mean default view would be the actual waveform (when zoomed out thickness changes with volume ofc)... but you have a view where zoomed in you see the individual (detected) beats and when zoomed out the thicker parts have more beats?

Key detection? Thats a bit hard... and maybe not the best idea though, leave to specialist programs probly. Able to view the file/waveform in how often beats occur?

Official psytrance? Who's the official behind that?

Oh my god, I cannot believe I was about an inch of scrolling short of downloading this :@. Downloading now... I'm sure it'll be absolutely great concidering who the op is

Loved track 13... and especially loved track 16/17. Which is the style I was hoping I would get with this mix (wouldn't say I'm dissapointed though, very good nonetheless). Lots of reverbey type stuff... lots of cool bass and stuff and just generally very dark. I think I know of a couple of things added to my wantlist... recomendations for albums like track 16/17? Oh and you wouldn't happen to know of any good albums/eps/ w/e that are a crossover between dnb and dark ambient? Like a set I heard which I'll linkage some time tomorrow.

That sounds great. :posford:

A lot of the cds link to his review of them.
