  1. i guess it doesnt have to work like this every time..

    but in the crystal skulls all the artists know each other ( at least i think so ) and they are not THAT different sounding from one another. so when they try to go a bit more downtempo (esp. skulls 1) and share samples (they did that didnt they?), the tracks will be kind of similar.. i dont know if the mastering process has something to do with it also..

     

    its funny im trying to think about other concept albums but cant think of any right now...

    only one about environmental degradation which is still under discussion/construction.....

  2. In the last couple of years I am mainly homelistening and feel sometimes a bit boring Could do with a few more parties here.

     

    eleria: dont you get any parties at draconis?? i thought there was a big scene there!

     

     

     

    well i ve occasionaly been a party animal, but now only go to a few good parties/festivals and to parties that a friend throws where we always have the best times; )

     

    i ve helped a bit on practical issues concerning parties like i ve offered many car rides to artists or helped to carry equipment/sound system even borrow my projector for many parties and my mixer/cd player etc at times of need.. its nice to see this side of the scene ! i can say i ve been lucky enough to meet some of my favorite artists.

  3. the last of the mohicans track from holymen is the most legendary uplifting tune in greece....

     

    every trance freak knows it and 90% laugh at it for many years now!!

     

    i cant believe you dug it up cinos! cheers for the funny memories you brought back : )

  4. tatsu, you are very right...

    juno reactor had god is god's videoclip playing on Mtv for example..

    but i dont think that if a band starts in the psy scene and later on makes more commercial appearances, it still has the same philosophy...

    In general, not only for IM, artists in the psy scene are not different from the crowd at parties, very often the dj at a party sees more friends dancing than random people he doesnt know.. its like a family thing. And most of the people(although the figure is dropping as i speak) in the psy scene are really against the commercialisation of music- both the artists and labels included- So, when u see IM playing with pop bands you know that its 99% chance that they dont really enjoy doing it, i.e. they re not going to have fun at such a concert...

     

    anyway all this is just speculation.. i bet that IM know what they re doing and have their reasons....

  5. i found this link in a similar topic in isratrance : http://www.rosh1.co.il/pirsum/rosh1_live.html

     

    the actual topic in isratrance is funny as hell to read through.. IM are playing on some extra-commercial festival OBVIOUSLY for the money involved, i am not criticising that-its their business-, but all the experts on musical ethics believe that its OK for a psytrance band to play together with Mtv ''musicians''.. in a while they wont even make their own music, someone else will write it for them and they will just go for the show... its the way the industry works, right? its OK to do so...

     

    i mean juno reactor is appealing to a wider audience, son kite, atmos, etc but they do not play together with pop-acts... so why is this IM thing not selling out??

     

    anyway... just wanted all you guys to see that poster! IMO infected should have a side project to be the money maker...

  6. i stumbled upon ashra - new age of earth which is very nice ambient with those warm analog synths (1976 i think) and played it to some friends, then asked them when they thought it was released and they all said 2003?2004?

     

    also brian eno released his first such ambient work in 75... (discreet music)

  7. stealing money from someone who most probably doesnt have lots of it and that is not in his home country is VERY lame... i hope the geezers will be found.. they look very stupid in the pics, notice their facial expressions ;)

     

    in the last samothraki festival some people stole a girls passport and money, but she and her boyfriend i think spotted the guys in the main stage!!! obviously there was havoc for some time people suggested the police should come, the victims said that there was no chance for that and that we, the people should figure out a solution by ourselves and so they got back their stuff and the thiefs were pointed out by everyone around and i remember they also tore their clothes because the thiefs started to get abusive, etc...... anyways, i hope the boom gang will get exposed soon !!!

  8. thanks so much for the first two albums !! i have spent a lot of time listening to your music, and that was time well spent!

     

    all i want to say is that since asura obviously has the talent and will to make something fantastic for the third album, so: dont take opinions too seriously, basically dont listen to noone unless you really really have to and just create what you feel like creating !

     

     

    Merci ; )

  9. lately i have come across many wonderful ambient albums... not all are psy-ambient and not all are new but i suggest
