Neophyte

try The Nam Shub of Enki - Snotgreen Kiwa - Planet of the Apes Space Monkey - Flash Daddy only ones i can think of right now

This has nothing to do with the album, as I have yet to hear it.. For the love of all that is sacred, WHEN will artists/labels begin to put some actual *thought* into the titles of their albums? The words loud and frequency don't connect to each other! Loudness = amplitude of a set of given waves or harmonics, while frequency (musically) is merely pitch/tone. It's the equivalent of saying 'voluptuous brick'. Not to mention the name of the label itself! Is that ever obtuse. Oh yeah guys, NO DRUGS...ok then you had better not touch that coffee or sugar or those cigarettes...ONLY THEN ARE THERE NO DRUGS RELATED TO YOU OR YOUR ARTISTS. What, do they make their artists take regular urine tests to make sure the music produced is absolutely not drug-influenced? Argh. Does anyone else see how stupid this is, or am I the only person who is critical of things that are not-well-thought-out?

I would pay, provided there was actual content. As in, practically every psy track to choose from. I'm currently fed up with soulseek and people not having any freakin albums I want...but yeah, it were a network packed with psy I would be more than glad to dish out.

I feel like saying Sesto Sento...but they're okay sometimes. Nissimyani is worse.

That track is originally by Bamboo Forest, btw

No, because Nissimyani really blows. Peyote was the *only* good track from their first album...

Agreed. Penta was good for a while...lately he's been sounding sort of basic to my ears. Jellyheadz has like just a *few* (like one or two) good tracks out of all the material they've released. Para Halu is ok. Derango has a *few* good tracks, again...

A chat would be awesome. Definately in favour

your poor brain man...here have some candy to cure the brain splosie 'fection

Dance of the Transcendental Vestites? Wha?

Thought Raindust was really cheesey...the female voice ruined the atmosphere of the track for me...I can't stand lyrics, especially from some desperate female. Lost Eden was awesome, though...no cheese there at all. (Sorry if this is off-topic, the posts in this thread are huge and are too much to read right now. Just giving the man some feedback, is all..)

Quite the glowing review. I'm shocked...fullon hasn't been good for quite some time...can't wait to hear this!!

I prefer Music has the Right.. Another great IDM artist I chanced upon is Arovane. Very minimal, complex arrangements with the occasional melody to fill the void...not really able to describe their music very well. Their latest album (Lilies) sucks due to overuse of melodies and vocals (eww), but their previous works are totally brilliant: I highly recommend Icol Diston, Atol Scrap and Tides.

I agree entirely! Compared to Detonator, this album is a steaming pile of alien shit!! I used to be a huge fan of Miraculix before this album was released. This disappointed on SO MANY LEVELS. There is no powerful acid-synth presence as was the strength in Detonator. In fact, I'd say all of the sounds are washed over with an indistinct, faded quality. The samples are BEYOND cheese. It's obvious he did them all himself. DO NOT BUY THIS.

This man has some serious talent and I wish him the best on his next album. I totally agree, Lemmi, that true artists like this need to be uncovered in the mess of monocultured trance. I really hope he's able to notably evolve his sound in his next album..he deserves some exposure. Binary Dreams is very atmospheric, and winston makes excellent use of layering. I haven't run across a single sound that violently jarred my ears. Also...NO SAMPLES. WHEEE.

I read the reasons, and I realize it can't be changed. You're wrong about there being only two countries in NA, however. Mexico has a rapidly growing psy scene. That makes three countries, two of which would most likely not prefer to be lumped in with the states.

Okay man, the euro countries were differentiated. This implies that there is a distinction to be made between these countries (i.e. different cultures). Your rant about me not accepting that Canada in in NA, is totally stupid. That's not what I was bitching about. READING COMPREHENSION SKILLS, PEOPLE.

I really like this mix! Good atmosphere, and not too over-the-top. (hehe, sorry can't be more constructive)

No kidding!!! The distinction between Canada and the U.S. is SO IMPORTANT. I dislike this poll very much.

AHAHAHAHAH HAHAHA HAH

Tetraktys (name of artist & album)

I just realized that this will also count lurkers.

You should close this poll after two->three days. If you leave it hang you won't get an accurate representation of the frequent users.

My favourite = NONE OF THEM. They're all so poorly implemented, and there is typically one riff looping over and over as 'just another sample'. Juno - Conquistador is perhaps my favourite integration of guitar into a track, but that in itself is not Psy at all. The only time I've ever been *impressed* by guitar in a track was at Om 2002 when Ray Vincent was doing a Goa set in the Dub Beautiful pit, jumped in front of the decks, plugged his electric through all sorts of filters and jammed for a good 20 minutes. He was so good you couldn't actually tell which sounds were coming from the record and what was from the guitar. It was THAT good. But yeah, guitar tracks are cliche. What? There's no guitar in this!

That name is terrible. Hard to believe they added the excessively cliche C-word to their name. If so little thought went into choosing a name, I'd hate to hear what they actually think is good music.
