  1. I'll go ahead and call this statement out as bullshit. To be fair, if Doof stands behind this mastering, then it isn't irrelevant. It's actually the mastering preferred by the artist, which is what you accept. One still might not like the mastering, or whatever else someone would be nitpicking at the moment, but to call it irrelevant is simply not true.
  2. Oh, I have the original. I was real excited hoping that the remaster would beef up the bass a bit and make some of the melodic 303s that he wrote more vibrant Just aggressive loud mids is going to hurt. The OG suffers from that era of shit TIP mastering (like the Orange Comp)
  3. That's rough to hear. I haven't snagged a copy yet, and still will because I want to support and snag the remixes, but that's really too bad about the mastering. =( Gutted if it's true...
  4. Hey! That's my answer! lol
  5. Yeah, shit can be expensive. Wasn't sure if you were actually going to go through with it. Maybe you can do a kickstarter, a la Etnica vinyl pressing, and collect enough money up front to do a proper shirt printing =)
  6. Shipping is kind of a pain in the ass. Any chance of a realistic knowing of the shirt idea? I'd really like to just order a package and save on shipping if that is a realistic possibility... So very excited to hear this!
  7. ...Happy 20th(ish) Anniversary Goa Trance — Spring!... goaconstrictor.com/audio/20thAnniversary-Spring.mp3 (1hr20min/320MP3/194MB/©2015) Genre: Spring Time Psychedelic Anniversary Goa Trance Goa Trance, while it did begin popping up a bit here and there in 1993 and 1994, was truly birthed (according to my KNOW-EVERYTHING-ABOUT-GOA brain) in 1995. So that means, 2015 is kind of, for lack of a better origin story, the pseudo (like the science often sampled in the songs) birthday/anniversary of what has been known as Goa Trance. During the winter time, I made the first of what was going to be a simple two-parter to celebrate the ongoing musical gifts from this often misunderstood genre that has helped shape other genres of music for decades. As I continued my digging and assembling the upbeat mix, I realized that there were still massive missing gaps of sounds, textures, and energies of which should be shared with the world. As I thought about the connections the Goa community has with the moon, sun, and nature, I realized that it would be more appropriate to split the mix into the four seasons. Winter time was a rough, nasty, heady time. It was fast and will keep you warm throughout the winter. Spring means something else entirely. You need something like a blanket to warm you up as the cold sun starts to shine and warm up the cold roots deeply buried underground. Only then, as the soft pads and minimal techno melodies open up, do we start vibrating again. Getting those morning dews to evaporate off of the grass and rejuvenate the spirit. This mix starts around 125bpm and does a slow and steady climb up to the upper 130s. Just the proper stopping point for the summer that is just around the corner. We dig from classic vinyl only released to brand shit released earlier this year, with many sounds between. So please, join me this spring and wish a Happy 20th(ish) Anniversary Goa Trance! http://goaconstrictor.com/music/happy-20thish-anniversary-goa-trance-spring/'>goaconstrictor.com/music/happy-20thish-anniversary-goa-trance-spring
  8. because no one else writes music like Slinky Wizard, Process, or Blue Planet Corporation.
  9. I absolutely love Slide, but he sounds nothing like Xerox & Freeman, Absolum, Talamasca. Nothing
  10. I don't care if they don't exist anymore... SAIKOSOUNDS FOR LIFE
  11. I don't know if it's what you are after, but I love Delirious Noon
  12. The best thing on this album is the killer breaks section in the middle of Feeling Very Weird Overall, some of the remixes have grown on me a bit (Feeling Very Weird, both BPC tracks) but the Hallucinogen track is kind of meh and the Prana mix just doesn't do it for me either. The original and California Sunshine mixes of Rain are far better than this one and I feel an X-Dream remix might have been better with a different track entirely. I'm not a massive AP fan to begin with, as such I'm surprised that I like any of it. But, these are my thoughts... And that breakdown in Feeling Very Weird is just plain awesome
  13. Furious 7 it was rad
  14. Not sure if this is related, but quite often when I am trying to view the board from my phone, it tells me that I don't have permission to view the board. I tried logging out to see if it was an account thing, but I can't even do that. I just can't access the board at all. Any thoughts? Has this happened to others? I'm using an Android phone, non-rooted, and it tends to only be when using the mobile network, wifi seems fine.
  15. I was shocked by the free shipping, and excited by it! Ordered the CD and have been enjoying the FLAC files that came with it. Loving the sound. That dark, moody, acidic, psychedelic Japanese craziness! MmmMMMmmmmMmmmMmm! Kind of bummed there was no Ubar Tmar or Yamabikaya on it, but I'm not going to complain. It's a great comp and am looking forward to more releases
  16. I wanted to give you some feedback on this because I keep putting it on and trying real hard to be a big fan and I get crushed by the overuse of a specific sample throughout. Specifically, the snip that is used over and over and is predominant from 0:22 -> 0:27, 1:11, 1:14, 1:21, 1:28... That loop just brings me out of the track. Overall, the track is nice, I enjoy the reworking with the more 4 on the floor, and the other samples are used fairly appropriately. Just mute that fucking channel. Please Keep up the work
  17. Slinky Nuns - Shitty Stick (Better Than A Poke In The Eye With A)
