    Yes god damn it, I'm still doing that!:D

    Unfortunately 2020 was a shitty year for all my hobbies including listening to music, but at least the quarantine kinda helped.

    I am at no 340. But I still have 1075 releases left! :mellow:

    good luck it takes real discipline, have been doing this now for years and lost count, but not how i started out day by day week by week, i have 4 teenagers and it just doesn't work that way anymore, am still pulling out some amazing stuff that blows my mind now, but didn't 20 plus years ago, ageing is great.... sometimes

    Oh yes, I am a huge fan... And thats the reason why we re-released Psykadelia, who is his ultimate masterpiece imo...

    Unfortunately he was sick since 2010. He had Parkinson. He still played on some parties... in 2013 on one of mine in Belgium, and it was already hard for him to press play and eat normally. I think his last gig was in 2016 in Israel. Unfortunately he never recovered of this disease and now we can only remember and honour him by playing his music and oh yes... we will. 

    He also one of those VERY few artists that managed to make only good tracks for years!

    had no idea was parkinsons was kept very quiet, and i agree right up to abduction had some great tracks but yes psykadelia was indeed his ultimate and i see you still have some copies for sale!! i can't beleive that didn't sell out years ago, anyone reading this buy it!!! in fact i checking mine now as if worn out might just buy another no doubt once people hear of his death as usual values go up

    Am deeply saddened by hearing the news today we lost another goa legend, you know him by many aliases (around 30 in fact)
    He needs no introduction as was one of the founding fathers of our movement, if any of you youngins out there don't know his music check it out and pay some respects today.
    while in the latter years he went very quiet and surrounded by some controvesy including an imposter touring pretending to be him.
    i have fond memories when ebay came along and getting up in the wee hours of the morning here in australia trying to last minute buy his first few albums as were hard to get here or anywhere, and i even bought loren-x off joske from suntrip many moons ago who is a huge fan and am sure will be blasting some of his tunes today (thanks bro)

    will always be remembered for his legendary unique floating melodies for  decades with so many great tracks and albums, in fact some even reissued on suntrip.
    heres one of my many favs, hope you all pay some respect today
    R.I.P Gilbert forever immortalized thankyou for your great spirit vibrations x

    Good topic!

    I haven't yet looked at it this much - but this is VERY interesting.

    It's a fact however that once a video passes a certain "activity point", it gets recommended by the algorithm in people's sidebars and becomes kinda a self-runner because more and more people click on the thing when it's in their recommendations.

    The key ingredient for the "get popular" formula is to get a video recognized by the algorithm. To achieve this, you can buy views and even likes. There are several platforms to order these things ... but the algorithm meanwhile is intelligent enough to distinguish "bot views" from real human ones. That's why you can also actively buy human views. You can even buy comments and subscriptions. Everything can be bought! Why do I know it - well, I had the identical questions myself on the Soundcloud platform ... for the "Skeletone" project ... however, you can tell from our player and follower count that I did not use any of these methods :D ... point is though, this has taught me a lot about how these platforms work. It's crazy...

    With this I do NOT imply that any of these mentioned (or not mentioned) artists may have bought views, but hey, everything is possible, isn't it?

    We could actually start an experiment! Let's create a completely new project on YouTube with a blank account and then post a (real and completely legal) track (which is ideally newly-composed exactly for this project and purpose) and let's buys some views, likes and subscribers for it and see how far this goes ... hee hee :rolleyes:
    Anybody up for donating a track?

    EDIT: By the way, I am not intending to convince anybody that it is a good idea to buy views or anything ... it's against the rules of Youtube and it can get you banned there ... don't wanna sound paranoid, but the Google Algorithm reads this forum here and it hereby knows what we're up to :ph34r: ... just gonna say that if such an experiment was done, it'd be a completely fun thing with no commercial intention whatsoever and just for science :)

    i think this would be a great idea

    but isn't astrix that little gaul who hangs out with the fat guy on magic potion!! since when did he start producing?
