    Solar Fields - Movements

    in 2009

    Posted

    I'm no Solar Fields fan but it could have been good if he got rid of the hideous "The stones are not too busy" track and put in one faster more drummy track. Oh well, can't get everything :P

    Allow me to disagree... this track is one of my favorites...don't know why though... :ph34r:

     

     

    It's warm, a little lighter in my opinion then leaving home. Leaving home gives my a deeper melancholic feeling when I listen to it in the evening. This album is warm more light, more Melodic?!

    I agree!It's clearly more easy to listen than leaving home. I like to think it more as a follow up to [Extended] than [Leaving Home]. Imagine you listen to [Extended] at 04:00 am, you sleep a couple of hours, and [Movements] is what comes next along with the sunrise.. :drama:

     

    Im just starting to listen.. and this is epic stuff, movie soundtrack material for sure :) the sound quality is out of this world. I will return to write some more about it when i have listened through it all.

    Out of this world my man...that's right... 4 words enough to describe this album..

     

    Thanks Magnus...you did it once again..!

    Music and Reading

    YOu mean Herman Hesse right? Funny you mentioned it, the experience i had with the music becomming one with the book WAS Herman Hesse and ISHQ.. If i would read the book and then listen to ISHQ i wouldn't connect it, but when i listened while reading it suided the book perfect, like background music in a movie or something :)

    I ommited the 'H' in Hesse cause it just didn't sound right to me (hesse in greek means have a shit... lol)

    :D

     

    Anyway that's really interesting!!I don't thiknk it's just a coincidence mate... i am SURE that ISHQ's music is somehow influenced by Hesse.

    Siddhartha + Orchid is one of my favorite combinations.

    These days i read Steppenwolf along with Coulorform (ISHQ again) - Visions of Surya.

     

    If anyone else has an intersting combination, share it!

    Cheers

    I love reading late at night with my headphones on.. (always ambient music)

    And i usually "connect" book genres - authors with atists like:

     

    Fantasy books <--> Solar Fields

     

    Castaneda <--> YETI

     

    Herman Hesse <--> ISHQ

     

    Lately i also found that Krill.Minima & Evan Bartholomew make reading much more interesting!

    :)

    Excellent news for Ultimae fans

    limited edition basically just means they are only printing it once because printing it twice is alot of hassle. It costs alot of money to reprint and it's easy for the accountant :lol: You only have to pay your artists once for the cd and you are done.

     

    The 777 copies is just a joke i think. The minimum you can print usually is 1000. So what are they gonna go? Put 223 copies on the attic?

    Somnia says :

    This CD is limited to 777 copies, signed and numbered, hand stamped on hand made paper, hand sewn, and sealed with a wax stamp.

     

    So yeah maybe a factory wont accept a 777 copies order, but if it's hand made you can even make 666 copies

    :drama:

    Psytrance these days....

    All kinds of music and music industry in general are on a downfall in my opinion.

    I suppose most of us listen to other genres of music and we can clearly see that.

    And of course this lack of creativity affects all artists no matter what style they produce.

     

    My opinion is that all these derive from the way we live and act in general. People are less creative and imaginative these days. We "buy" emotions, imaginations and ideas instead of creating our own.

    For example i can buy a soft synth with a 10000 presets and make a psy track in no time. BUT all those sounds will be just other people's ideas and emotions. I mean the process of creation is all gone...and thus we keep our mind asleep...

     

    I just hope that our minds are just asleep, and not dead...and one by one we'll start to wake up.

     

    Cheers.

    eczema & bad milk

    ????? What's this???

     

    Won't re-type all the forementioned, i agree with most of them.

    Just a couple of albums i would like to add:

     

    H.U.V.A. Network - Distances (i can't beleive noone mentioned it...the best album ever :lol: )

    Total Eclipse - Violent Relaxation (cd 2 is just massive)

    Doof - It's about time (not everybody relaxes with this one...)

    Dub Trees - Nature never...etc (greg hunter + youth + posford = sweet ambient dub)

    U-Recken - Deeper Into Man

    in 2008

    Finally some decent full-on. Compared to a lot of crap that's being released this is amazing...

    I general it is a nice piece of music to listen to but imho a little less imaginative than his first one.

     

    Cheers

    :)

     

    p.s. The track Aquatic Serenede from his first album is so f***ing massive! but i never understood why he kept it that short... :(

    So i guess we' ll meet there!

    Whaaaattt?????

    I live for the downtempo reviews... keep them comin!!

    :clapping:

     

    Anyway your review sounds really "true"... I hate it when people give a 10 or a 0 on an album so easilly.

    Haven't heard it yet so i'll be back.

    Entheogenic - Flight of the Urubus

    Kinda dissapointing for me to..

    It's not bad but it's really faaaaaar away from their first 2 albums..

    :S

    I really enjoyed my first couple of listens but soon i forgot that it really existed...just like shulman's last album...

    I am sure they can do better than this.

     

    Peace

    New Solar Fields album in the making!

    Great news!!!!

    :posford:

    Magnus is an amazing producer and a great person also. Don't really know him but we talked once and he gives you the feeling that he is such a peaceful yet full of energy person. Just like the music he creates!!

     

    I expect nothing less than perfection. As always...

    :rolleyes:

     

    p.s. Has anyone heard anything about HUVA Network also...?
