    Asura - Code Eternity

    I always think of this as Ketamine trance, it sounds like trance on Ketamine, exactly the same just slower, more plodding. I love it
  2. Maybe he assumes my fetish is a joke
  3. Anything you do could have absolutely any outcome, looked for or not? Remember that guy you kindly helped fix his truck? Well he drove it into a crowd full of people killing nearly a hundred of them. A lot of people would agonise over something like that but it'd be pointless to do so. We can only act with the knowledge we have and understanding of probabilities, 999999 times out of a million helping someone would have only positive results. You can't predict what's going to happen. We also can't help all the world's people. As long as each of us makes at least one person's existence better and doesn't have a detrimental effect on others then I think we're doing okay. If only everyone could be like that.
  4. eczema While I also have a fondness of very smooth skin, I love girls with eczema, I like how it looks, how it feels etc. As long as it's not so bad that it looks painful I like it, causing pain is definitely not a fetish of mine. For buildings I have a passion for dark heavily industrial buildings with a distopian feel to them. I've even been on a factory cruise at night, on a boat looking at the port side industrial plants. Brilliant.
  5. The Muses Rapt - Spiritual Healing (Darshan remix) Sounds Nothing like the original but still so nice

    When Monty Python take over you just have to accept it. Yes sir, can I have some more.
  7. Genetic - Transmission Every damn time for 20 years now GNotR - Rock Bitch Total Eclipse - Aliens Chakra & Ago - Insignificant form of life The Muses Rapt - Spiritual Healing Also every damn time for around 30 years. . There's more, so much more I'm sure.
  8. I like listening to BBC radio 2, and not just for the talk to bathe my daughter in English, it has a great selection of pop. Basically the DJs play pop from all decades from the 60s onwards so generally anything from 5 years ago or more is decent because as always happens the 95% of crap music gets forgotten and so only the great stuff from the past gets played. Contrast that with the only English radio station I can actually get here on the air here (rather than internet radio) which is the Yokosuka US navy radio that basically plays 80% pop from the last couple of years. The music is mostly crap because crap can be popular but it won't last. Still there is some good stuff among the crap that might make it on to Radio 2 even 30 years from now.
  9. One thing we suffer from as a species is that most people have the mindset that only directly causing harm is ethically wrong. For example a man directly kills 80+ people and he is evil (and he is, get me wrong anyone that could do such a thing is a sick twisted fuck) but we who spend our spare cash on CDs, books, TVs, booze, prostitutes, fine dining, art etc when we could live frugally and use our spare cash to help feed the hungry. How many of those malnourished kids could we have saved with the money we've wasted on luxuries? According to the charity I donate to, the $100 I give a month pays for 100s and 100s of meals for kids in disadvantaged countries. That's an insane number, I just spent $10 on a bottle of wine and some crisps (I'm a classy guy I know) but wouldn't that have been better spent giving it to a homeless charity? My problem is that like so many people I think that $100 a month is enough to keep my conscience clear. I mean, I'm helping right? RIGHT? But I'm not doing all I can, I'm not giving all I can and because I'm not, people die. But it's not my fault right? I'm not directly harming anyone, in fact I'm passively helping people (100s and 100s of meals) but it's this mindset that allows this to continue; with my $100 a month I absolve myself of responsibility for all the suffering in the world, I don't need to help any more so I'm going to sit here with my wine and crisps, my expensive data plan with unlimited internet and $400 earphones and pretend that I'm not scum because while I might be richer than 97% of the world, I'm still poorer than everyone else I know.
  10. One of the best thing about listening to instrumental music is the music doesn't get stuck in my head much, and I find it very easy to get music stuck in my head, so it keeps its freshness. Not quite like I'm listening to it for the first time but still 20 years on and I'm still in love with the same tracks As I said it's really easy for me to get music stuck, from stuff that I have heard on the radio or in a shop, to things I haven't heard in 20+ years just popping in and setting up camp, sometimes for weeks. A few weeks ago, out of the blue I got "I've got a brand new combine harvester and I'll give you the key" stuck. It doesn't even need to be a song. I got samples from a training CD stuck in my head. Some French guy with immaculate English saying he lost his report and has no back up. Wtf?

    China

    I like Chinese, they only come up to your knees, but they're always ready and they're willing to please.
  12. I've been thinking of purchasing these, how are they?
  13. With a cool Star Trek TNG sample
  14. I'm afraid so. There's a thread somewhere in off topic about it. Very sad indeed.
  15. All the leaders of the Brexit campaign have shat themselves and run away from the responsibility of leaving the EU. Who's going to lead us in exit? A stay supporter. Whatever was best, Brexit leaders all suck.

    EURO 2016

    Nailed it. If only Pepe could just fuck off it'd be a lot more palatable to support Portugal.
  17. You've obviously never heard of Roots Manuva then?
  18. Thanks for your impressions so far. I'm curious how you'll find it when you get used to it.
  19. 1200 Mics - Magic Numbers was utter shite https://www.discogs.com/1200-Mics-Magic-Numbers/release/985100 If the music wasn't bad enough, the last track is just a mix of all the preceding tripe.
  20. I have an iPhone as my work phone. It's a good reminder never to get an iPhone as my personal phone. So frustrating to use. I prefer ambient through headphones and a good DAP.
  21. That's right, but not a very good one. Lovely photo of your dog I'm jealous, I miss my dog.
  22. Maybe we need a resurrector? The world is yours, it's yours and yours alone. The Earth might not belong to you, it might be shared by the teeming trillions that inhabit it, but the world, your world is truly your own and the sooner you realise this, the sooner you'll start shaping it the way you want it.
