Ok got my hands on "The Art of being Non". I only tasted it a bit, a deeper inspection will be required to form an opinion. However I must say I like what I heard, despite the fact that it definitely sounds like 2004.

Hi all. I've heard this name in positive context, though I didn't hear much of his music (except for some single track). What can you say about it?

Commercial Hippies, Panic...

Oh and System Nipel sounds really good to my ears...

Got my hands on Commercial Hippies. This is definitely the stuff I'm looking for, maybe a bit more melodic...

Well maybe the word intelligent is an overshoot here The term is used to describe not boring, not too repetitive music. Voice of Cod is tasty, Artifact is digestible too. Both partially.

I've listened to Planum and Nystagmus. Nystagmus (starting from the third track or so) is closest to what I like. Planum is a bit "not-concrete" but ok too. Yet they do not "drop the bomb" for me if you know what I mean.

It's just because we have roots of trance music in our tradition

I know that the majority of people here spit when they say/hear "Full-On". I am not a big pro in the trance scene. However I'm getting tired listening to all this downtempo/ambient/chillout, it's just too soft for my ears. On other hand annoying, thoughtless, repetitive fast tracks drive me crazy too. Oh and finally all this over-commercialized stuff like Dali makes me sick I want some danceable though intelligent music, which probably will fall under "Full-On" category. Am I the only one getting this feeling?

This is not a psy at all. It is a shitty dance music.

Just wondering. Anyone here from Middle East and not from Israel? Ah and Azerbaijan is in Asia isn't it?

My ears like what they hear, I guess this is enough. Fuck the categorization(do they have such a word in English?)... P.S. I think this music has something beyond its "accessability"

The search gave me an error, I apologize if there is already such a topic. I have recently got my hands on MFG - Message from God. It sounds just right for my ears, what do you think about this stuff?

We are at www.psynews.org, I find htis site pretty interesting and useful in the field of psy-trance. Could anyone suggest similar sites which "deal" with other electronic genres, which may be close or not really to trance?

Ah I'll tell my friend to let you download our OS Project. It's cluster mp3 streaming software. It is open source so you can alter the code and stop the stream

Yep and I am not ashamed of it. The world is unfair, so speaking of a global morale is a nonsense (I am not planning to perform a genocide or something ). Would it help anyone if I simply ignored anything not shown on MTV since I didn't buy any album at all? Would it help more than me having dozens of downloaded albums and buying one of the artist I really appreciate? By these rhetorical questions I will end my postings in this thread, because I feel that our dispute is useless, this is simply an issue of mentality.

Piece of art is a rare thing. Far more rare than every single CD sold in the e-shop. I guess it will be a healthy advice not to label everything you hear/read/see as ART. Many aspects of what you see as art are pure business. Anyway I am not going to persuade someone to stop paying I just say that I personally don't think that it's a so big deal to download. However you probably will not understand me anyway.

First of all music technically is information and let me expose that horrible secret it is a digital stuff (even on the CD I think). Let me also point that only a very small percent of the stuff released can really be called ART (with the capital A, R, T) the majority is more like entertainemnt I guess. If it's ART I don't see a reason why it should be more easily accessible to people who have the money than to those who don't. Oh... and maybe you wanna come and educate me? I think it will be a great idea.

Freedom of information I say. First of all a succesful and talented artist will not stay hungry so the labels and record companies are probably more interested in all this fight against mp3 than the artists themselves. I personally think that artist should "persuade" me that his product is GOOD for me to buy it. Additionally surprisingly people in different countries earn different amounts of money, while the prices of CD's are the same so... And finally we have US and Europe to buy all the original stuff, don't we?

I tried Nystagmus but it's not too close to Planum I think.

Ok I admit that I should have first look at the review section . I was wondering what artists make music in this style?

What do you people think about this album?

Ok by now I had a chance to put my hands on: Artifakt - Artifakts 2: I find their music interesting, their style is great IMO. Shpongle - Nothing Lasts: It is nice, but too "soft" for my taste. Broken Toy - Broken Toy: I like it too, it is maybe a bit more straightforward but it sounds cool anyway. I have some 10 more albums in my download list and about 10 more which are waiting for their turn. By now it seems that I am digging in the right direction .

I will take some day or two or three to absorb the music of the artists who's names where thrown here in the air. More of your suggestions are welcome.

Well I heard Astrix too and I find it great. As to IM I like their old albums as well as their new one (I mean I like the music and don't care much about categorization of it as pop or not-pop). I think they are great as musicians. I'm actually looking for some smart (more than simply a good bass and rythm which are important too of course) trance music. Any suggestions?
