  1. Some other non-psy music that I am interested in, usually would like a recommendation of what album to pick up if I would take one:

     

    [More of] Dead Can Dance - what are the good albums?

    iTAL tEK

    Venetian Snares

    Pendulum

    Proem

    Kattoo

    Secede

    Stendeck

    Kettelo

    Far Too Loud doesn't have an album yet?

    Proem's last album is more on the ambient side than the album before, which i prefer because of the additional glitchy sound.Plus,there's a second live set cd as well which is class.Socially Inept is also really good.

     

    Kattoo's first album is my favorite and there's loads of variety inside like.Thing is,there is loads of aggressive breakcore along with the sweet atmosphere so if you don't fancy the breaks that much then go for the other two albums.By the way,you can download the albums on mp3 from free going to his website and leave a small donation in case he saved you from buying them without at least knowing :)

     

    Stendeck has got two amazing releases and going for a 3rd one pretty soon.His last album Faces is beyond words really.The style is really close to some sort of atmoshperic neo-industrial mixed with IDMish breaks and a ton of melodies and it's so nicely done it actually sounds pretty psychedelic.

     

    You can find samples and free tunes of them on LastFM,

    Stendeck

    Kattoo

    Proem

     

    Good luck with the hunt.

  2. I tried giving it one more listen before the file gets deleted. Pure crap. The last track is even bad production. It is totally over-loading and sounds horrible. Unprofessional quality all the way. I'll wait for more new ultimae stuff.

  3. Listened to it with headphones. Wasn't as good as I was expecting. Could have been much better. :o

    The world could have been a much better place as well but it isn't.

     

    I listened to this album without expecting anything and i really fancy it.

  4. Wow, those organizers must have mucho dinero with all of those big names! The location looks delicious, with the ocean right there. I have never been to such a festival, and I would wonder how safe these things are. Are people generally friendly to strangers? How would you recognize people from this board if you never met them before? I would love to hop a plane from the US and check this out. OF course, I need to be sure this festival will actually happen.

     

    Mdk

    It will happen,people are very friendly to strangers since Greece in the summer is full of tourists,especially in August.

    And that's not the ocean,it's the Mediterranean sea so it warmer with no biggy waves,perfect for an afternoon swim.

  5. i think i prefer the natural forest music.

    Yeah man.

    The sound of the wind breaking the forest's dead silence and running wild into it brings a feeling that is pretty unique.

    Brings shivers every time,especially when i'm on delics.

  6. shitty p2p download no. Lossless maybe but with a poor quality download you'll miss so much.

    Most albums are ripped using EAC and LAME with -V 2 --vbr-new settings.

     

    Hydrogenic Audio Forum states:

     

    High Quality: HiFi, home or quiet listening

    -V 3 --vbr-new (~175 kbps), -V 2 --vbr-new (~190 kbps), -V 1 --vbr-new (~210 kbps) or -V 0 --vbr-new (~230 kbps) are recommended.

    These settings will produce transparent encoding (transparent = most people cannot distinguish the mp3 from the original in an ABX blindtest).

    Welcome to reality.

    I might be flamed for this post,but i think you should know.

     

    and if you paid legally for the mp3 files ?

     

    320 kps, no VBR ;)

    Best Quality: archiving

    -b 320 - This is the strongest setting for MP3, with the lowest risk of artifacts.

    With the exception of a few situations, quality is rarely better than the highest VBR profiles described below (above in this case).

  7. Psykovsky and Parasense started a very unique style that became really boring too fast. Today it's just too random and too fast.

    Agree.Early Psykovksy,Parasense,CPC,In R Voice,Fungus Funk etc was pretty fuckin mental and very unique.

    Now its just dg dg dg dg dg dg dg iiiiuuuu dg dg dg dg

  8. otherwise there is no 10/10

    I agree.Even if there are a few seconds during the album that you don't think its sounds fuckin amazing,its not a 10/10.

     

    edit: the only 10/10 for me is Gridlock's Formless,not psy though.

  9. Hmm, it looks like a very interesting release... I've never really gotten into metal though. Although I do like darker toned psy-trance and ambient... So if its dark I might like it...

     

    I used to listen to metal 5-6 years ago, mostly doom metal, but also black and death metal...i'm really glad i gave up listening to metal though !!! but some of doom metal projects were/are really interesting, including Burzum and Mortiis which are both very dark as well.....is this something close to burzum, mortiis, summoning ?!?!

    It is actually very slow,like old black metal in slow motion or something ... well mostly drone metal with a black metal feeling,you get the point.
