Nice! Downloading as we speak! Glad this topic isn't totally dead yet. Btw: got Cydonia in the mail beginning of this week. Can't say that I'm really happy with it at first glance; too many vocals and too poppy sounding (not the good kind of poppy though... >>> )

FSOL - We Have Explosive EP :D YES INDEED !!!

Why would you want to pay for the list when you can download it for free??? I mean, the link is in his openingpost ffs !!

VA - Floating Point II (has some of my favorite chillsongs on it, but I never owned it until now) http://www.discogs.com/release/357209 FSOL - We Have Explosive (yes yes, slowly gathering all FSOL releases ) http://www.discogs.com/release/10049

I just got Floating Point II in the mail and there's this song by Crowd Control, called Ivory Town. Would've been a nice and sweet song, until someone starts singing. Aargghh. Well, most songs are ruined by vocals if you ask me. Buh.

because they're in your cache, probably?

Capitol K - Island Row. Nice freaky idmbient! Me gusta!

Same here. I love cranking up the volume and putting on 'Among Myselves' just to creep people out. And maybe to ease their minds, after that something really sweet, hehehe. Btw: I must admit I never really got into Amorphous Androgynous... I don't know, they really couldn't reach the same heights they did when producing as FSOL.

Yeah, I know. I even got this album as a present from faze (thanks nonetheless dude! ) but I was pretty disappointed. Maybe it's cause a lot of psychill doesn't seem to evolve as I'd hope for. Meaning: a lot of artists seem to be relying on the same tricks, same sounds, same-same samples. Well, having read quite some reviews of yours, I think you do indeed have a good taste. This comp just didnt reflect that, but hey: tastes differ indeed! I'm still curious about your next release though, that's something, ain't it?

Much respect to Seraph: I just got Cascade EP in the mail and man: this is excellent stuff. It's like a >half hour version of Cascade. Amazing! I'm awaiting 'My Kingdom' and 'We have Explosive' as well, the others I couldn't get my hands on yet. I think those are 'the Far out Son of Lung and the Ramblings of a Madman' and 'Lifeforms: paths". I think there's also a remixalbum of Papua New Guinea (I have the translations already) but I don't really know if that one's worth getting. Thanks seraph!

Some people just invent awesome tracknames... let's collect em all!! Ohmgnome - Step away from the dwarf the Orb - a Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules From The Centre Of The Ultraworld (Loving You) FSOL - Among Myselves FSOL - Everybody in the World is doing something without me ooooh, there's a lot more but my brain is stuck. Help me out here!

Ulrich Schnauss - Monday Paracetemol Eat Static - Abduction

I think this is definitely a good release, but not all that all the time. There's times where I just love it and there's times where I get a little annoyed by the richness of the album. It's cramped really full with a lot of sounds, nicely fused ethnic flutes, dubby rhythms and a feel-good atmosphere. My favorites are I think Neurosomatic Circuit, Gnome Dosed and Dub Crickets. The flute is sometimes a little bit too much for me, but as a whole I think it's a good example of how Psychill can also be done. Not too cliched and full of ethnic chants and instruments, but warm and psychedelic, atmospheric and dubby. And not to forget: the artwork is something else too!

Today I got in the mail: Pole - Pole http://www.discogs.com/release/167715 Dub Syndicate - Pure Thrillseekers http://www.discogs.com/release/740876 FSOL - Cascade http://www.discogs.com/release/93360

Agreed!!

hahaha, maybe I was being sarcastic? I truly despise IM's new style... Btw, how can you say the Misted Muppet has gotten better? He has only released one album, hasn't he?

Hehe, it was intended more as a happy than as a funny smiley. I'm curious about the Orb though (Nodens Ictus I've played a thousand times before I finally got my hands on an original), I kind of expect them to be not-quite-so-good but on the other hand it is the Orb!

And mine. I voted for Sandman too, although stuff like Deviant Species, the Delta and the such come close too...

Nodens Ictus - Spacelines the Orb - Cydonia

Used to be psyshop, lately it's been more Saikosounds. I dunno, they seem to have more of the cd's I want in stock and although they take quite a lot longer to deliver, I have always liked them. Dunno why, but they're cool!

I totally agree. I buy mostly cheaper albums on eBay and must admit that my buying in saikosounds has dropped dramatically. Ebay is kinda addictive. But really, this doesn't help the artists AT ALL.

I voted 2009, cause I expect Jeller to be dead by then.

Higher Intelligence Agency - Ketamine Entity

Really nicely done! Great pics!

I'm not quite sure what I think of it, but when I do, I'll come back to this subject. I haven't yet, but I will. Thanks for the recommendation! Btw: have you read the book Acid Dreams? very interesting story about the place of LSD in those times. Funny thing about the social movements is: most of them seemed to think that lsd implied some kind of social conscience that every would develop when under the influence of it. Well, some hippies turned pacifist, while groups like the Weather Underground but also the Black Panthers and others started using violence against "the man". I did know that, there was a seminar on the influence of lsd in scientific discoveries. Now, an other fact. Did you know Albert Hofmann said that "he didnt discover lsd, but that it made itself known through him?" Funny story (and I heard him say it!): 5 years after first having synthesized it, he suddenly had a chill and remembered this substance called lsd-25 and resynthesized. The rest is history.. Political science. My bachelor thesis is not related to this in any way. I'm pretty sure my professors aren't ready to discuss this subject. :-) 597056[/snapback] edit
