    Psytrance in movies

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    Huh...I watched that series not long ago and don't remember anything jumping out at me like "hey, it's psy!"

     

    its somewhere towards the middle of the second season i think, after the dude starts to recover from being run over by a bus. its definitely psy all right.

    other than juno reactor's matrix tracks i cant think of any movies ive seen that have psytrance in the soundtrack other than "once upon a time in mexico" which had some remix of that juno reactor track pistolero. i definitely want to check out zohan and man on fire now though!

     

    however, in the british teen drama show 'skins' theres an episode where the characters go to a club and there is very definitely psytrance in the background; and in another episode the characters talk about going to tribe of frog in bristol.

    Good TV Series? Any?

    so ive seen every episode of caprica now, and while i like the atmosphere, the acting, and the music, this whole "vworld" thing is starting to get a little ridiculous. i hope they do less of that in future episodes.

    my all time favorites are battlestar galactica, the wire, and the sopranos. ive been liking caprica a lot also lately; i just itunesed the first 2 seasons of big love and have been getting into that.

     

    my new favorite though is the bbc comedy 'the thick of it', about inept british politicians. the dialogue is just hilarious, even for someone without a great deal of knowledge about the british governmental system. check it out

    I've really gotten into this guy over the last year or so; basically I think he's written the most imaginative and well thought-out sci-fi ive read in a long time. I just finished "against a dark background" and it might be my favorite of his yet. I havent read many of the culture novels (only excession and use of weapons) but i was well impressed by those also. Anyone else here into him? Whats your favorite?

    alesis monitor question

    in Music Making and Production/Industry

    Posted

    hey all. im thinking of picking up a set of alesis m1active 520 usb monitors as they are relatively affordable and connect directly via usb which is a large plus for me at the moment. does anyone have any experience w/ alesis monitors? would this be a good choice or not? i am not a rank beginner at production (i know my way around the sequencers and vsts) but im by no means experienced and have never worked w/ monitors...

     

    thanks in advance

    Your Favoruite Hip Hop Albums

    in Other Electronica

    pretty much anything by kool keith is pretty good--totally far out stuff, he's certifiably insane i believe--especially dr. octgagon--octagonacologist. that's probably my favorite hip hop album of all time:

     

     

     

    more awesome sci-fi rap comes from deltron3030 (this may have been mentioned already, but deserves saying again imo).

    many solo albums by dudes from the wu-tang are great, specifically gza's 'liquid swords'

     

     

    and raekwon's 'only built 4 cuban linx'

     

     

    also, ive got a real love of the really old school stuff like krs-one, brand nubian, public enemy, etc. etc.

     

     

    and i cant forget to mention the albums that got me into rap in the first place, back when i was a teenager: dr. dre's 'the chronic' and snoop dogg's 'doggystyle'. both are amazing and still get played to this day, 17 years later, at parties and on the radio.

    Any Schwarzenegger Fans?

    my favorites have to be "total recall" and "the sixth day" but theyre all pretty solid. also, i was fucking disgusted by the movie they made from the computer game "doom". growing up i always imagined schwarzenegger playing the space marine that descends into hell; not only did they cast the rock it also had nothing to do with hell at all. i fucking walked out of it halfway through...

    Amon Tobin Anyone?

    Posted

    yeah, i listened to him a lot for a while too. i need to get supermodified again, that albums was fucking awesome. i also liked 'out from out where' and 'bricolage' a lot, but theyre all pretty great. i missed his appearance here in seattle by 3 days :angry:
