This one looks like it's failing to be sci-fi
Nothing's changed in that respect, then.
-
I don't listen to that kind of generic trance.
-
where as the last entheogenic album just rehashed the first 2! They actually used the same samples!
Yes.
-
Hope it's not as boring as the last one.
I still haven't managed to find that one interesting.
+1. There's some good moments, but it's mostly boring, self-indulgent, laziness. I mean come on, half the tracks sound like their own material.

I think that the cover is ironically hillarious... it is better to use the irony for me than some pretentious bad graphics made to look more cyber than it actually is.
Agreed. Much better than a lot of the tasteless 3d renders.
I can agree with some of what the journey man is saying - I also feel there isn't enough variety in the scene, and a lot of the music can be generic, especially with sample CDs. Rather than bitch about it, why not explore other types of music? I'm listening to a great selection of tunes I love, so should you, not bitching about what's out there that I don't like.
As for this album - well, to be honest I've had my fill of sampled vocals, but I'd probably get it if it were the same standards as In Dub and Blumenkraft (which still are on my playlists )
There's instances where the vocals can make all the difference - Ott's remix of Tea Daze for instance. So, it really depends on the artists, not what they're using.

Nah we don't need psynews to become "big". I think mars just needs the donations for the hosting costs, if I'm correct?
Yes. But saying that we should have banners and then telling us we should block them defeats the point. I take it that Psynews gets a LOT of traffic, with a lot being from guests. They're far more likely to click a banner than to donate money.
-
I think my love for being alone and personal with music outweighs it.
Nicely put. I definitely feel that way too, though I do like collaborating. You just got to meet the right people, I guess.
-
I recently gave in and put ads up all over my site, figuring that anyone that really cared to block them would (and they'd be welcome to).
Defeats the point doesn't it. If everyone was blocking advertising, there would be no market for banners. How do you think Google got big? Donations?
-
This thread has mainly grown so big because of all the spam posts.
I wish to register a complaint with the moderators of the forum!
Oh wait.
-
So without the text it wouldn't be stupid? Or another font?
A different font perhaps.
Even without the text I don't really dig the cover. But then it's taste, isn't it?
-
Running through the album full length. :posford:
But after that I reckon I'll be spinning some Kettel.
-
Fair enough, but is it stupid? That's the question ...
I think it is.
Probably would have worked better with a different font there. Or no text whatsoever.
I do like album covers that don't say anything about the artist/label/album name etc. Like Dark Side of the Moon.
-
Nice one PKS, keep up the good work.

Extrawelt - Soopertrack

On topic please.
By the way Pavel, Merck do some fantastic electronica/hiphop. Shame they're defunct now, but you can still buy most of their back catalogue online.
-
The hell will freeze twice before They'll release a good album again
I thought the couple albums I got were average at best.
-
Sorry, I don't like it at all.
I really don't.
-
I couldn't really say. You'd never know what kind of music they'd come up with!
If I got the chance, I'd love to collaborate with either Stendeck, Secede, Kettel or Proem.. that could be really interesting.
-
I can't believe that such experienced listener like you can say such harsh words for something different.
Artists should not be criticised for pushing the boundaries.
You wouldn't want Vibrasphere churning out 5 albums of Lime Structure like material. It would get repetitive and boring.
-
is that nesesery for humans to make problems and troubles to each other ? no need to ban any malakas or remove / hide anyones posts
No, it's not necessary. Though, we've had our fair share of shit stirrers.
If there were no humans, there would be no trouble.
-
1. Sending Orbs
2. Hymen Records (Ant Zen)
3. Moamoo (Japanese - but some UK distributors carry their releases)
Merck also has an honourable mention - they're not releasing any more stuff but a lot of their back catalogue is still available. Impressed with the cds I did get from them.
Some melodic ambient recommendations?

Second Kettel... even his more upbeat tunes have a strangely depressed/melancholic vibe to them. Much prefer it when he's doing soundscapes such as He's His Own Man or Halt Him. Loving Formless by Gridlock right now, although it's definitely more IDM it has some beautiful soundscapes and sonic experimentation. I'll second Proem if you like darker music, and Ochre as a complete opposite to Proem.
Also try Lusine ICL - Language Barrier, it's very atmospheric.
