  1. Is this a joke ? You've been waiting for an order since 2007 ? :lol:

    No and yes.

     

     

    probs best to post on eat static's forum rather than here. merv reads that frequently so im sure hed be more than willing to help :)

    Thanks but as I wrote above I've been in contact with Merv several times but still no records.

  2. Hello all,

     

    Wanted to check if anyone here ordered records from the Eat Static web shop (http://www.eatstatic.co.uk/) and received their records? Placed an order late 2007 and so far I have received 2 out of 10+ records. And since the payment also is done upfront it's pretty fucking bad. I've contacted them several times, and everytime it seems like they are about to send the next lot but I haven't received any new records since January 2008.

  3. Hi guys,

     

    Lately I have been putting stress assasssin to fall asleep with.. Does anyone know music which is similar to stress assassin? It has to be rly subtle and kinda minimal and chill like stress assassin, preferably just like it.. i mean the beats that he made r just so chill, they r legendary for me.. its rly indescribable what it does to me.. anyway thanks for your help and <3

  4. Does anyone know what happened to 'Henrik Jonsson' AKA Stress Assassin? The two albums that he released, carrier track and motorcycle boys themes, are two of my favorite and most listened to albums ever. It is such a unique but chill style that he developed but since his last album carriertrack I haven't heard of him except an email that I got from him in which he said stress assassin is dead and that he went on to a different project and he told me the label. :( But that was many years ago and I forgot which label he went to. And I cant find him on discogs or anywhere on Google. Does anyone have any clue where or what he is doing? I want to contact him to try to persuade him to create another album as Stress assassin. Because the style is just so powerful and unique it would be a shame to leave it behind :)

  5. Haven´t read all the posts, but read som about what music is harder to mix, here is my general thoughts about that.

     

    I would say that psy-trance is among the easiest dance music genres to mix. It might not be the easiest music to just beat mix but to do a really good techno, or other forms of more "minimal" music", calls for much greater skills (music where every tiny move from the DJ makes a greater diffrence). About drum'n'bass, not hard to mix at all (as you might think in the beginning). It just takes another way of listening to the tracks, more focus on percussions than the kick.

  6. I want to create a summer mix (chill)

    obviously Abakus is going on it

    I'm also thinking of Kaya Project, Kuba, Jaia, Adham Shaikh, Androcell, Gaudi, Solarquest

     

    anymore suggestions of summer chillout?

    From the top of my head:

    Various - Summer Night Sessions (Compiled by Michael Dog)

    Wagon Christ - Tally ho!

  7. I first listened to your "Digital Delights" mix, and you got great skills and all that and some of the tracks was brilliant, but alot of the music didn´t entertain my brain enough (guess my head is to used to those sounds nowadays). But now I downloaded this "Rise" mix and this was rather good shit I must say! Feels much more interesting and doesn´t bore me for a second. Love it :). Keep it up.

  9. Haven´t heard the album yet, only heard some of their tracks on previous 12" and I like them alot! Another nice thing with AP is that they care about the covers, even their 12"es got unique graphics for each release.

     

    Upcoming purchase :).

  10. Yes, that Nirvana remix is awful, and even more awful was a remix I heard right after that one - Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy, Hey Girl (some psy-trance remix). Really sucky ones I heard on a club some weeks ago.

     

    dj mylo:

    Actually bought a remix 12" of Pink Floyds "Another Brick in the Wall" some month ago. It´s a whitelabel, but the remixer wasn´t afraid writing that he was the remixer (a hungarian progressive producer called "Andro").

    Review:

     

    Both the Quirks Mark Allen and Tim Healey have been experimenting alot the last

    couple of years and they are some of the pioneers in the wave of housey

    progressive trance - which have grown nearly to the size of a tsunami during

    the last year. Hopefiend is Marks own project and this album feels like it

    comes in the exact right time - the first releases I heard from Hopefiend

    didn´t feel at all as interesting as this, and it feels like he took the time

    he needed to evolve and experiement to release this full length. Because of

    the sets I´ve heard from him during the summer (that hot morning @ VooV,,

    ohh.. memories :), just after Antis great(!) morninghours :)), I had quite

    some expectations on this one, and he surely delivered what I wanted - loads

    of great pounding rythms and it´s as quirky and funny as ever. The tracks

    shifts between mostly uplifting, rather sunny parts while some ends up in real

    mind-slicing melodies - melodies which sometimes gives the feel off something

    experienced after a (bad?) snort of cocaine. All in all a great piece of work

    - if you feel like you need a sunny percussive journey with some slicing

    melodies and twists - then this is a really nice buy.

  12. 12 Moons - Invisible Light

     

    Artist: 12 Moons

    Title: Invisible Light

    Label: Spiral Trax

    Date: 2002

     

    Track listing:

     

    01. Invisible Light

    02. Clairvoyance

     

    Review:

     

    Michael Andresen keeps on exploring the atmospheric side off progressive

    trance. 12 Moons often feels like the uptempo version of his brilliant ambient

    project Healer (which currently is climbing on the list as one of

    the most beautiful and relaxing records). This is no exception. "Invisible

    Light" is a very typical 12 Moons track - deep kick under numerous layers of

    heavenly atmosphere which progresses and transforms towards a pumping finnish -

    pumping ambient which could make the floor cry and burn at the same time??

    "Clairvoyance" is more built around a typical 12 Moons melody which maybe gets

    a little bit more space then they use to have. It´s still very atmospheric

    with nice string-like sounds and a very strong and emotional finnish which

    works towards brighter and brighter areas until it finally hits the ground

    again. This was the first track I fell for on this EP, but after some more

    listenings it felt like the A-side is the one that will keep it up in the long

    run, maybe it's the melody that looses its power bit after a couple of

    listenings but I still think that this is one of his stronger 12 Moons

    releases.

  13. London Sewer Tour - Suggestive Digestive

     

    Artist: London Sewer Tour

    Title: Suggestive Digestive

    Label: ACDC

    Date: 2002

     

    Track listing:

     

    01. Gutter Phunk

    02. Suggestive Digestive

     

    Review:

     

    London Sewer Tour is a project by Greg "Lunar" Coyle, Gareth Green and

    Charlie Norton. Greg is the one that I know of, and this is the kind of

    music that he is known for - nice laidback but still pumping progressive

    music. "Gutter Phunk" builds up from the beginning with just a rather slow

    kick but evolves into a really really nice tribal friendly track with superb

    laidback crystal clear melodies, can´t get other then top grade from me.

    "Suggestive Digestive" is a little bit faster, but still reminds alot of

    "Gutter Phunk" with morhping laidback melodies and the tribal thing going

    on. As in the first track, the happy melodies with a morphing thouch is

    awesome which takes both these tracks into my current top 10. Highly

    recomended to everyone who enjoys progressive music of finest brand. If you

    do so, then these melodies will give you some serious chills, ;)

  14. Hallucinogen - LSD

     

    Posted Image

     

    Artist: Hallucinogen

    Title: LSD

    Label: Twisted

    Date: 2002

     

    Track listing:

     

    01. LSD (Synthetic Rmx)

    02. LSD (Oliver Lieb Instrumental Rmx)

     

    Review:

     

    So, some more remixes of the beloved classic LSD track from Hallucinogen.

    These tracks is more club-oriented then all the previous remixes done

    (except the Oliver Lieb then). The Synthetic remix is a sunny club-tech

    remix with all the ingredients you get from the original, just add a more

    clubby bassline and some other more clubby details and you get this one. He

    has done a beautiful work with creating a sunny and very emotional

    atmosphere around the track and the melodies is still VERY hypnotic and

    explodes after a break in the end with the well known sample. This might not

    be something for you who are totally allergic to clubby elements and rythms,

    but I think you should atleast give it a try in your phones, because this is

    great shit! both for home and floor. Oliver Liebs Instrumental remix is

    exactly the same as the one released on the Mi-loony-um EP but this is as it

    says, instrumental. I suggest you to go for the one with samples in, it

    feels a little bit empty without them. Besides of the (for me) pointless

    b-side, this was still really worth getting for the Synthetic version alone.

    This is not magic, but still beautiful.
