  1. Hot damn i'm so envious of you guys making it to aurorae ;(

    and what a program!

    I would cut of my left toe just to be there one night.

     

    I will however be there in 2 years :)

    for now, its only me & overcrowded german festivals.

     

    Nice Photos Cray :)

    and damn again. It almost hurts not being there. Who knows if there ever gonna be this many cool artists playing again?

     

    With the drugs that many of the dj's are taking, the lifespand isn't the longest ones, so a silent prayer... Let them surivive for at least 2 years.

     

    hmpph..

  2. Good times!

    Those pole dancers were something else, and to pop up so unexpectedly made it even more special.

     

     

     

    Wagamama? That means selfish, what kind of place was it? There is no need to drink the god awful sake, there is better booze here. But Japan is not set up for vegetarians. Welcome to the land where the vegetarian sandwich contains meat :lol: Seriously :ph34r:

     

    Wagamama is this fancyish japanese restaurant in Tivoli (although not too expensive)

    its quite a good place- I like it.

     

    but, i've heard about the japanese. I was in Germany (Rostock) and ordered a vegetarian sandwhich they put meat in it.

    I tried to tell them that vegetarian means no meat- they looked at me as i was crazy. Than the locals tried to tell them but they didn't understand.

    I think they were thai and have never actually learned the language-(german)

     

    but i'm not ready to kick off the habit of vegetarianism yet.

    everytime at Christmas i get diarrhoea because there is served duck xD (i eat meat once a year)

     

    But what about the language. I'd guess they don't really understand english that well. Or is it just my imagination?

  3. I was attending a confrence in Kyoto, and thought is was a good occasion to see some more of Japan :P and I guess I needed some vacation, and I stayed at abasio's place for 3 days, what a great time indeed :D

     

    If u get the chance, then go visit Japan!! And the pole-dancers... they changed my life Posted Image

     

    I'll keep in mind if i ever go to Japan

    its a strange place, but the food must've been godly.

    I remember eating tang (four different kinds)at wagamama at tivoli this summer and some soup.

     

    Don't really like sake a lot, but that's probably because i'm not accustomed to it yet.

    and i must lay off the vegetarianism before visiting xD

    Unless theres alot of veggie food down there.

  4. I just Read Geomancer for the second time.

    William Gibson is a genius

    I prefer him better than Phillip k. Dick

    although i've only read two books by Dick.

     

    I'm in the midst of reading Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy which i feel has a very distinct charm, i love how Douglas Adams? / Adam Douglas? writes, it has his humour and i feel that you're feeling the thoughts of the protagonist. I love it.

    it's a very alternative way to view your world, accepting that species can hold an intelligence greater than yours and still wont be able to determine an outcome better than those with less, if you catch my drift?

  5. I'm always more in favor of the chilled dubstep mixes

    I remember OD Linking to the Phaeleh chilled mix June or something.

     

    It was sublime, really loved it!

     

    If i gotta listen to dubstep with the hard beats i prefer it live. I remember seeing it live. It was really an experience to recall.

    the bass kicking you in the stomach almost felt as my intestines danced around. Not live as in live but somewhere you can play it loud and with some good speakers.

     

     

    Something i gotta try again, but i doubt benga will come and play for a time now.

     

    but i reccomend you download "]this free release

    its splendid, its chilled and got some good rythms.

  6. ^nice covers KozmikT :)

    I finally got:

    Animals is a must, i love the sound but especially the style. Its very charming. My cousins love the music videos and dig the music. I'm slowly indoctrinating them in the electronic music genre. - i'll let them listen to some kindzadza next or perhaps Aphex Twin.

     

    I don't like the extrawelt album, I bought it just before i went to fusion. It was my first album with extrawelt and only did it to prepare myself for the madness of the festival.

     

    But tell me what you think of them :)

  7. Great Photos :)

    Now i really wanna go to japan, but thats gonna be many years from now unfortunately :(

    Looked like you had a brill time, especially with the poledancers xD

     

    What was the original ocassion for going to japan?

  8. Dear Caffein brother, thanks for your contribution to this thread, but how can you prove me that the style and artists you mention there are disliked by most people? Seems to me like pretty accepted quality-music!

     

    Well i haven't found any of my friend circles who actually liked ambient so well imo i still counts.

    else, i really like this new guy called agneton. Not many know him.

  9. I've recently wandered into the dimensions of danish ambient music to find some decent listenable music when i was suprised of all the good stuff made by danes.

    (national pride)

     

    I love Dub Tractor and Mike Sheridan.

    especially Dub Tractor has caught my attention with the album Hideout.

    I'd reccomend it to you all http://www.myspace.com/dubtractor

     

    Alot of Upcoming minimal and experimental artists making a name for themselves as well.

     

    I really like Katzenjammer as well. They're some norwegian folk band whom i heard live at the badeschiff in berlin this summer.

    Such amazing voices and cheerful girls as well.

  10. I'll Snappen that :lol::D See what I did, eh? ^_^

     

     

     

    Excacly! I love the artworks!! So to answer the initial question: A lot, but in the very end, it's all about the music.

     

    I've said it before and I'll spray it again; Pics or STFU!

     

    :blink: really? :lol: killa

    Yup' ill get to it, as i said before i just moved, although i got all my albums here, i haven't put them on the wall. the tapestry is different at this place so the albums keep falling down. I can only get my stickers and other stuff to stick on the side of my closet, i need to find a better system to showcase my cds.

     

    But i think i got an old photo from my old apartment laying around somewhere, i may have to raid my computer at my mothers place :-/

    i'd love to show it sometime - so for now i'm gonna shutup.

  11. When i buy music i actually rate the covers as a big part of why i buy it. to me music is an art and the covers that follow is art as well.

    i've got a fetish for putting my albums on display so i have a whole wall filled with the covers of my albums, can't say that many of the covers match the quality of the music but like all things everything is an gamble and even if the music sucks i still get a prized piece to display. I mean, i even bought "Felix Da Housecat - Devin Dazzle & The neon fever; simply because i liked the art, it's happened with other albums as well.

     

     

    E:

    The way the Wall System Works right now is by double sticky tape to the wall, not very effective :(

  12. My vote

    Posted Image

    Never been a big fan of sanaton Releases, but damn.... Thats a pretty cover - that would be my pick for 08'

     

    also, the hibernation cover is dissapointing, looks great on the screen but its different when you have the cover in hand. The distant system though, it has a different feel to it, i prefer distant system over hibernation. :unsure:

  13. you mean IDM, IDM/ambient, ambient?!

    Just the same kind of music. Not per Genre as you perceive it, but what i meant was a similar artist.

     

    E: I don't believe Autechre counts - Its not in no way comparable, i mean. Listen to 26 mixes for cash. find anything like it.

  14. I'd also say he's overrated. Sort of like Posford. It seems every genre has to arbitrarily name a king so that those without ears have something to flock around. :rolleyes:

    Name another who makes the same kind of music as Aphex Twin.

  15. I still think that Myam James pt. 1 is better than my dogan, even though i'be been trying to listen to this little gem... i still don't think they compare very well....
