Colin OOOD

We're very moreish.

My listening system is my production system - Cambridge Arcam Alpha amp driving Richard Allan RA8 (mkI) infinite baffle speakers. I've tried a few amps but this one (30 watts a side, 20 years old if it's a day, bought from a junk shop for £20 including matching tuner [since given away]) is the second-best amp I've heard with my speakers, including a Cyrus Two. The best amp was a Quad 303 which had recently been recapped, with a home-made passive attenuator on the input to get an appropriate input level from the mixer. I want one.

The hardware in my studio is a laptop PC, a silenced tower PC, a computer, a controller keyboard, a mixer (used as a volume control), an amp and speakers.

Just found this thread... Flurorostani Transcendance and Synchronicity Converger are both tracks by Unconscious Collective. Um. Carry on... I'm going to read the rest of the thread now, where someone else has probably already corrected you. Possibly even me.

The 'scene' is just another word for every one of us that listens to psy trance. If the scene is dead, it's because we killed it ourselves.

Fuckin' LOL

One thing about the person who started this thread:

Let's hope they make a better microphone than your old ones.

How can you have less than zero erections?

Yeah, I was, actually... it gets lonely out here sometimes as you'd be surprised (or not, maybe) how many people leave OOOD off lists like these. All that probably means is that at the time we weren't as influential in real life as we thought we were, in our little bubble! (and no, I'm not fishing now, just holding my hand up to a bit of ego...) As for the name, you can zarking farwark off. I'm not quite as Out Of My Depth as I used to be... but the OOOD is here to stay!

:offtopic: I used to be in an indie-rock band called Autospy...

Might I suggest... er... no, actually, it's ok... um... this is the way out, yeah? Ok, I'll see you later... <trips over doorstep>

Here's a couple more:

NEWS FLASH Due to a fire in the factory the distributors have been forced to delay release a week until October 3rd. Just to increase the anticipation!

Jon - it's Voice of Cod, by the way, as in the fish. We considered Voice of God when we were deciding on the name but thought it would be a little presumptuous. And DeathPosture - thanks a million million for such an awesome review!

It was recorded live in hot sweaty clubs; a lot of the instruments went out of tune badly during the course of the gigs, in particular the 303 on Cosmic Ripple and in Kundalini where the Silver Machine (Nigel's home-made synth) came in not only out of tune but in entirely the wrong place, played for a while then stopped responding to pitch information entirely - at which point I muted it on the mixer. There are other major blunders in there too. The main point of that album was that I think it managed to capture some of the (unique, I think) vibe that we generated on stage with that particular line-up and stage setup. To this day I'm still very proud of it for that although aspects of it make me cringe at some points because, to my ears at least, parts of it just sound wrong. I realise that the artist is quite often their own worst critic though, and I'm very glad that many people have enjoyed the album for what it is - a celebration of live music made because it was really, truly the only thing we wanted to do with our lives. Still is, too.

MP3 - getcha.

64-bit? Do you mean 8-bit? [/geek]

It was the cheeky girls wot did it. I just wantet to prove myself to be worthy of your groupiedom. Maybe because it's when we lift our eyes up in thanks for a sunny day, we see blue...

Transylvania... and I do believe I've just been told off! For you, Moni, I will shave, shower AND brush my teeth. How's that? Glad you like the cover too. I hadn't thought of the blue as being the colour of 'happiness and freedom' though; it's just my favourite and I tend to use it a lot.

Well... one person made a comment, anyway! And when you use phrases like "successful, original, doggy style" to me in that sultry manner you have, it's pretty obvious that you're already well on the way to being a successful groupie. What country did you say you lived in? Woof! Colin PS. I haven't left my room for nearly a week now except to eat and use the toilet, as I've been working very hard getting the artwork ready for the deadline. I haven't shaved since last Thursday. I don't smell nice at all right now. Still want to be my groupie?
