Already listened once at work while trying to finish a document for a deadline. Can't remember much, other than it was good and probably more on the helpful side than distracting. Trying again now at home. Is it a coincidence that this has four 10min+ tracks like The Mystery of the Yeti albums (and one of them is called "The Journey")? (F'ing ninjas.)

So, there was a notification of a registered letter in my mailbox and I was like . Then I noticed that it was from the US and A and I was like . I expected and needed that stuff too, sure, but I wasn't worried about that one yet so now I'm like Maybe next week...or month...

Neither of my latest orders from Anjuna nor Zion have arrived, despite 1-2 months of waiting. I think there's something rotten in their postal system. They really should consider some kind of distributor with more reliable delivery. Right now we're paying relatively steep shipping for single CDs and still not getting them. Even though I have the files for listening, I don't like the situation where "normal" delivery takes longer than PayPal's dispute time. Well, checking my mail once more today...

Well, do you want to listen to my mixtape...

The whole thing has effectively turned into Moon Moon records...

It's a little late (or early) in Japan, namely 7 AM. It takes a lot of dedication to post here all night.

Tsk...you're not consistent with your misspelling of "release" and "good"...

My friends couldn't believe it WAS Koxbox!

I've heard that wearing a metal pyramid on your head might help...

What's a "full sample"? Your last link is deceiving. Oh, and simple substitution with the Mage Script font is cheap. I demand more challenging ciphers. Without studying the actual samples properly yet, I'll guess Lunar Dawn, Proxeeus, Tavi, Arronax & Somnesia, but I may change my mind...

Possibly related

MfGM doesn't because it was a 2013 release. Meanwhile, there's also Limitless Universal Waves in downtempo. Apart from that, fine work and relatively good participation in voting.

Surely "Garbage in My Mind" was a goa release. Crossing Mind track? Agneton track/album? Ephedra album? Can't recall exactly. If not, I'll make it some day. It's catchy.

It's still February in some time zones, right? Uptempo: 1: Psysutra - Gamma Phoenicis (Cronomi Records) 2: Deviant Electronics - Green Room (Zion 604) 3: Virtuart - Sacred Drop EP (DAT Records) 4: Morphic Resonance - Chromatic World (Neogoa) 5: VA - Three Om Three (Anjuna Records) 6: Lectro Spektral Daze - Out of Body Experience (Neogoa) 7: VA - Ten Spins around the Sun (Suntrip Records) 8: VA - Moon Ritual (Amakusa Records) 9: VA - Celestial Transvibrations (Neogoa) 10: VA - Gamayun Tale (Lookinglook Records) Downtempo: 1: PsiloCybian - Unfold Oneself into Endlessness (BMSS Records) 2: Androcell - Imbue (Altar Records) 3: Kaya Project - Firedance (Interchill Records) 4: Misled Convoy - Tickling the Dragon's Tail (Dubmission Records) 5: Dr Trippy - Invasion by Osmosis (Disco Gecko) 6: Mister Chill'R - Lysergic Lullabies (Waveguild) 7: Ren Toudu - Nemophilist (Ovnimoon Records) 8: Circular - Moon Pool (Ultimae Records) 9: VA - Ethneomystica Vol. 1 (Mystic Sound Records) 10: Andrew Heath - The Silent Cartographer (Disco Gecko) Some last minute coin-tossing and fuzzy logic was involved...

'Langtbortistan' is a recurring fictional country in Danish Disney comics, translated quite directly from 'Faroffistan' and first seen in a 1959 Dumbo story. I don't know what happened to the 't'. 'Lang' means 'long' but it usually takes a '-t' suffix when used as an adverb...I think. Maybe a native Danish speaker can clarify this important detail. Anyway, 'Faroffistan' largely conveys the main idea as far as I know. 'Langbort' is also the last name of some people but I don't know whether that's relevant here.

EVERYONE!

Simon Posford?

Or you can copy-paste through your simplest plain text editor like Notepad. Or install a "copy unformatted text" browser plugin. Handy for other purposes too, such as word processors and spreadsheets which also like to keep formatting both in and out. Speaking of copy-paste, the starting post aka instructions says "favourite uptempo and downtempo psy albums of 2014" and little else. However, this has traditionally meant "albums, compilations, EPs and singles". Maybe something to point out to new readers?

There was this CD a few years ago. Maybe not 100% match but something at least...

I've bought such albums.

I felt old/odd when someone posted a "classic top 10" on Isratrance in 2011 and everyone there agreed. Most of the tracks were 2003-2006 with one 2001 thrown in. By 2005 or so I had already given up all hope, declared psy dead and switched to house. Never could have considered that as the "classic era". But it's ten years in the past. Even people who hopped in by that time may feel like hardy psy veterans now.

Yep, EAC is fine on Windows side. Cdparanoia-based tools like Rubyripper work for Unix/Linux/BSD. Check that the ripper has correct CDrom offset for your drive and settings that verify the read a few times. Official FLAC builds should be reliable and fine. You may want to set ReplayGain already in the encoding stage. Most rippers can fetch tags from CDDB/Freedb/elsewhere, but always triple-check them because all kinds of errors, typos, crap capitalisation, using "VA" as the artist for each track etc. are all too common. Discogs often helps in spotting the true track content when even the original cover has misprints. Psy scene has a long history of switched tracks, misspellings, uncredited appearances, name variations and such. Sometimes the data I get from public databases is so horribly wrong and poorly formatted that it's easier just to re-type it from scratch yourself...

Tranceform Records might be worth mentioning as one of the rare bridges over the dark/cheese gap of early 00s..

I'm making stew. It's one of my favourite weekend hobbies. Whereas on many working days the big question is "which 15 min recipe to pick today", stew is from the other end of the scale. Fill the pot in the morning, do whatever you want, add something whenever it feels like a good idea, do something else while the aroma gently reminds you that something good is cooking. But wait, there's more! Stew is universal. I believe every culture that has figured out how to boil water has also invented stew at some point. It's not a precise recipe (heh). If you have something edible in your cupboard/fridge, you may have ingredients for stew. Whatever you put in there probably resembles some traditional, cherished dish somewhere. The process is very forgiving too. Depending on the mixing ratio, you may get a thin or a thick variant but it's just fine anyway. Five hours? Seven? Ten? Still good. I just went outside for a walk. It was snowing. When I came back home, stew was waiting for me. Assuming that you've loaded the pot early enough, it's faster than ordering a pizza. Open the lid and it delivers. Stew is the universal symbol of returning home, escaping the wrath of a cruel world and having a warm meal. Heck, it's not a symbol. You can actually eat it and feel totally content with everything for a moment. A large pot of stew feeds you, a family, some friends, or you again for a few more days. Next day it's still fine or even better. You can even freeze it for a few more dinners or quick lunches. It's cheap. It makes basic ingredients rich. All you need is time, which unfortunately seems to be in short supply nowadays because we're so busy checking Twitter. Now look, you can check Twitter a bit later after filling the pot. Stew doesn't need your constant attention. Make stew. Feel primal unity with everyone throughout the history who's managed to find a pot and something to put in there. Or just eat some and get shit done. That's what I'm planning to do right now. Thank you for your attention.

Well, Cybernetika has become almost a household name here (and nothing wrong with that), but speaking of d&b/breaks, did you check the prolific output of Xenofish and Mellow Sonic? Xenofish – Lune Mellow Sonic – Synthetic Intelligence Mellow Sonic – Cosmic Anomaly Xenofish – Datastasis Mellow Sonic – Dreamcatcher Xenofish & Mellow Sonic – Enhancer Still not sure whether psychedelic d&b really exists. Futuristic, maybe? Whatever, you can listen to it anyway.
