Oophoi - The Dreaming Of Shells

I guess I was lucky with those as I got them pretty cheap. If I remember right, Feeling Weird was only $5 on amazon (substance version) and is still not more the $15

Well they could have let there girlfriends influence them and made some shitty pop crap I just got this myself though I know it's not true

Well it arrived today so I am extremely happy :) :) :) See! 6 Smiley faces (7)

God damn dust cloud, stupid icelandic volcano delaying my packages from europe :angry:

Might be worth checking out. I like the last resort although The Trentemøller Chronicles was pretty cheesy

Yeah, I feel similarly. Sure it was pretty good but I wasn't really tempted to watch it again or buy the DVD

Any good?

Nunc Stans - Timeless

18. It's trippy on acid 19. It's trippy on 'shrooms 20. It's trippy drunk 21. It's trippy sober 22. It's good exercise music 23. It's good shagging music 24. It's good to dance to 25. It can invade your dreams 26. It spawned some great chillout/ambient music

These two are very good, I whole heartedly recommend them Even if Facial Memories has the worst cover I've seen this year, the music is actually really good. This was pretty disappointing for me, overly cheesy and nowhere near as good as his older (deeper) stuff.

Stick with what you know, if you don't have any idea about production techniques and technical musical terms then steer clear of them. If you are knowledgeable in technical areas don't go overboard describing everything so technically as not everyone else is. Your impressions and how the music makes you feel is pretty good usually mixed in with some layman descriptions of what the music sounds like. Most importantly write for yourself fist & foremost and don't worry too much about what other people think of your reviews, that way it will be more fun for you to write and you'll end up with better reviews

hoping to get Danny Kreutzfeldt - numberground Various - collection 4 : transforming Opium - pain(t) Muridae - under the fable of meaning ESE - the shroom experience Oophoi - the dreaming of shells soon

Looks like another high quality CBL release

Artist: Principles Of Flight Title: Smash EP Label: Timecode Records Released: 9th April 2010 (Digitally) Style: Psychedelic Trance Tracklist 1. Smash (9:58) 2. Bubble Up (7:51) Hot on the heels of Principles Of Flight's great album Chaos Opera on Timecode Records last year is a digital EP release, Smash. There are two tracks Bubble Up & Smash. Both are everything I expect from PoF, they are energetic, have great basslines and atmosphere that tells a story. And in true PoF fashion that story is like a dark, fun, twisted fairytale without any of the things that make fairytales childish and with everything that makes them pure fantasy. Smash holds onto the fantasy atmosphere created in PoF's previous two albums with a thunderous beat and crunchy bassline. The melodies and sounds put me in mind of being in the forest outside a town in the middle ages, huge gates in the distance separating civilisation from the darkness outside. I feel firmly outside with the darkness but as usual for PoF this darkness is like a warm comforting blanket, the twisted monstrosities I dance with all have more humanity than humanity does and while everything look nightmarish on the surface it is really a wonderful dreamlike experience. Bubble Up is particularly bouncy & I can picture a huge castle in some fantasy wonderland filled with dark shapes and Burton-esque characters. In the centre of the castle is a large hall filled with masquerading party goers but unlike a usual black tie ball room dance everyone is off their nut dancing like nobody is watching. The dancefloor slowly gets fuller and fuller and eventually there are people being dragged under making the floor a living thing that crunches as the still upright dances smash their feet down. I am a big fan of PoF's sound, I love their take on darkness, I love their beats, their basslines and melodies but most of all I love how their music conjures such wonderful images in my head. Most modern psytrance doesn't do that for me & I find myself always looking to ambient for a really trippy, painting pictures in my head experience but PoF manages to paint those pictures while remaining extremely upbeat and dancefloor friendly. The only problem with this is that it is only an EP and is therefore over before I know it, I feel like a child falling asleep a few chapters in to his bedtime story and not knowing what happened in the end. This has wet my appetite for more from PoF and has made me listen to Chaos Opera again. Links Timecode Principles Of Flight Juno emusic
