  1. This is really the first time I've heard of him. It definately had some promise.. but what a shame, drug-overdose.

     

    I'm not really aware of the local goa scene, any others worth mentioning Rino?

  2. There's alot of talent out there so I thought we could all share our favourite unsigned artists, their myspace/soundclick/etc sites. Doesn't have to be strictly psy of course.

     

    Here's some of the top of my head (click for webby):

     

    Siebzehn

    Symphonic Chronicles

    Antares

    Aavepyora

    Astrotek (ambient, breakbeat)

     

    I had a huge list of links to unsigned artists, but I lost it somewhere.. And in the list I have now half the artists are not unsigned anymore hehe.

  3. They use a mac now. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

     

    :lol:

     

    Let's not judge them just yet. I'm gonna wait for the album to come out and after a couple of hundred listens I'll cast my final verdict on this one.

     

    I am happy to hear not only a full on bassline in their tracks... And with my "normal" trance roots I can only say stuff like "Burning Up" I liked alot, so I don't mind a little more "normal" trance made by them... It made me curious for their Open Society album :)

    Same here, avid trance fan so this might be a treat! :)
  4. No, I didn't like it at all. I think what I dislike in everything after TiT3 is the change of their sound when it comes to melodies. They use some kind of different synth I think and I don't like it. I also think their melodies are far less solid than their earlier ones. They are not all bad, but not really good either.

     

    And I'm now listening to Tryptomine Dream and I have to say it's not bad at all. I will try in the future to give them more listens. But I doubt I'll like them more than their earlier work.

    My personal observation is that with Another World they went more trancey with their production. Since I was an avid trance fan the album really hit me hard. But it's all down to tastes anyway. :)
  5. and IMO Liquid Sun is a masterpiece.

    +1 :)

     

    Btw u didn't like Another World - the album?

     

    Anywho, I think the biggest reason I love these guys so much is that their music has so much replay value. And it has inspired so many new talents that are rising up these days. Not to sound too corny, but their music belongs in a special place in my heart. :)

  6. Suntrip indeet has some very cheesy tracks, all the Filteria tracks are just uber cheesy and I can´t listen to them for mroe than two minutes without turning the volume down a lot because there´s so much stuff going on and the melodies are played on God knows how many supersaw synths which jsut sounds exaggerated. Khetzal is also very cheesy and indeet Astral Projection isn´t that cheesy, but "People can fly" for example is one of the few as cheesy tracks as Filteria or the cheesiest Khetzal, sorry but that´s what I think.

    Well sure I do favour some tracks more then others, but I'd have to list almost their whole discography just by making a top favourite track list hehe. I even like their old SFX stuff. I hope they deliver with their next album, but times have changed..
  7. Well on vinyl you can see the tracks, so that would have been something of a giveaway.

    Was just about to say that. Altho.. if they're clever enough they could of just recorded silent noise instead of silence untill the next track starts. That would maybe make it seem like theres a track there.
  8. Did you try again several times? Had a little problem and tried twice and it worked.

    Trying..

  9. Well I guess this might have been stopped if there were active mods willing to do some work in the offtopic. The only topics that ever got closed lately were by Nemo and Mars, even tho theres about 8 or so mods. I don't know if these mods are unavailable or just unwilling to moderate. But like you said mars, you warned about the spam in offtopic a long while back but the spam kept comming back. The tensions got bigger and bigger, and there were no mods to stop them from growing. I gave my word to Nemo that if psynews needed new mods I'm willing to participate. However since the offtopic closed I guess it's too late for that. Anywho, good luck with that suntrip release! :)

  10. I don't like the situation when the hidden track is great. So the only way to listen to it individually is to fast forward the last track.

     

    For example the hidden track in CBL-World Of Sleepers. I's my favorite track of the album so I needed to cut the wav file myself.

    Oops I was wrong about that track. Must of confused it with another hidden track from somewhere else. Yeah that is a good track, it shouldn't be hidden. It's not my favourite from that album tho :)
  11. Carbon Based Lifeforms have one of those in their world of sleepers album. But the hidden track is just pointless imo, I mean it's not a good track at all. Just random squaky noises in some kinda rhythm, which doesnt even sound mastered to me. I respect unreleased tracks, but hidden? They're hidden for a reason, probs cos they needed to fill in the cd's length or something.. Oh well..

  12. I don't want to point fingers, but when the offtopic was closed weren't some members banned because they tried to spam in the general section? I remember mars closed one topic and said the member was banned, I also think another member was banned by nemo for opening a spam thread in general (maybe sunwolf?). Might be that one of these guys got mad for getting banned and waited for the offtopic to get opened so they could attack again, thus making the onwers of the site believe that the off-topic was the reason why psynews was attacked. As far as I know we didn't have any fights in offtopic recently, nobody stepped on anyone's toes..

     

    I partly understand Fabien's decision. I mean if I had a record label that was about to put up a release and the website gets hacked, I'd do anything to stop further attacks. But what if these attacks continue? Will you close down psynews aswell? I don't really see how closing a part of your own site can help stop further attacks, especially when there is no evidence that the offtopic was the actual cause. And even if it was, you can't blame the psynews regulars for it. Nobody pointed fingers at someone and said "hack this website!".

     

    Rather than close the section permanently I think you should just close it temporary without any date on when its coming up again. You could close it untill you find the person responsible for the attacks. Because right now if he attacks again and brings psynews and suntrip down again who will you blame? The general section of psynews? The mods? I'm just saying you should try to find the person responsible before making such harsh decisions like closing down a section of a forum permanently. But it's your call and I respect that, whatever your decision might be.

  13. That's actually my name :rolleyes:

    I knew there was a conspiracy behind the google translator! :D

     

    Btw how hard is it to write those letters? I mean they aren't really letters, are they? Each one can mean a word right? My mother visited Japan and alot of asian countries almost 2 decades ago, she found the people and technology there fascinating. I gotta visit that place one day! :)

  14. Yeah, the site was hacked, and they wanted to remove ALL content of:

     

    psynews

    suntrip.com

    filteria.com

    Psysurfeur

    As far as I know the content wasnt removed but the harddrives were unmounted, so lucky enough the content of the sites are untouched. That's what I got in my email anyways.
  15. I don't care really. Off-topic was a spamhouse anyway.. and I've got a life to take care of atm. No more spammin from my side even if we get another offtopic forum on relocation :)

     

    Edit: No, the offtopic stays closed permanently. Mars decided not to open it ever again due to the recent hacks (his words).

  16. Hey, I'm looking for some ambient-ish music but with alot of emotion to it, melodies are welcome (not just drone ambient music). I'm looking for stuff similar to Ulrich Schnauss. I've listened to CBL, solar fields, early william orbit.. not alot as I'm still fairly new to the ambient world, but Schnauss is where it's peaking for me right now so anything with that intensity is welcome. If you could recommend me something in that area I'd appreciate it!

     

    Abasio, I'm look at YOU! :)
