    A 5-track EP of old material. 

    I've been thinking about re-releasing these for a while, and finally got around to it. 

    "Shudder" and "Crunch" were on my first 12" release in 1999 on Phantasm Records. 

    "Purple Fluffy Thing", also from 1999, was released on "Psychedelic Electronic 2" on Psychic Deli. 

    Whilst going through the old DATs I found 2 other tunes from 1995 that were never released. I made these in London, just before I moved to Japan. 

    The History : 

    Before Psy Trance there was Psychedelic Trance, and before that there was Goa Trance. Before that, there wasn't even a name for this amazing, mysterious music we had discovered. 

    The inspiration for "Gower" and "Merge" was dancing all night to what appeared to be sounds beamed directly from outer space in The Return to the Source parties in the Brixton Fridge, and the legendary Pagan nights at Thyssen St. 

    Re-mastered from the original DAT tapes, I tried to keep them as close to the original vibe as possible. 


    I hope you like them

    Q: What file-format is best recommended by you to download purchased music in? And why?

    I use FLAC

    only problem is the one mentioned above... and shame on Pioneer for not adding the FLAC codec (it's a free codec), it's just weak!

    FLAC is better for tags

    very good point, cover art can also cause problems...

    I'd love to see the results of a double blind listening test between wav, FLAC, and 320kbps mp3 around here, especially trying to distinguish the difference using electronic music. Fantastically produced acoustic music, you might be able to notice a 3.287% difference. Electronic music, or anything else that's compressed similarly, I bet nobody here could tell the difference. 

    The audible difference between loss less and 320 is dependent on the system you play your music on, on a mediocre setup you might not hear any difference, but that is not due to the file-format...

    I was just listing through my Hux Flux at home, then I go here and find this thread.. omg, so sad to read this. One of the pioneers of the modern sound, thanks for everything! Condolences to his family and friends! Rest in peace.

    Tinnitus /constant ringing in the ears

    Ohh man, sorry to hear that... My tinnitus was definitely worse to begin with (after the "damage") but was moved much more into the "background" now, both in intensity but also in my awareness of it... So there should hopefully be light at the end of the tunnel!!!
