  1. Time Simulation is all you need.
  2. two solutions for you anytime you seek an old cd... 1) www.gemm.com 2) www.ebay.com watch ebay closely and search gemm for typos and you should find most of what you seek as long as you have patience...
  3. i'd butter toast up there on the wall-all-ll-l--l---l
  4. ditto what auryn said.. solstice, what's wrong with you people?!
  5. why's that, protex? cuz artists don't put enough into the tracks to make them stand out from the crowd? no offense intended..
  6. Very good acidic Goa trance! Too bad about the shoddy vinyl release.
  7. I think this is an excellent piece of wax... great cover, excellent tunes... MWNN branches out to do something a bit different and it really works.
  8. Graham EQ3 1. The Infinity Project - Intro 2. Part 4 - The Mystery of the Yeti 3. Woodski - Woodski 4. Excess Head - Hopscotch 5. The Infinity Project - Noises from the Darkness 6. Excess Head - Strange Thing 7. The Infinity Project - Mysterical Experiences 8. Excess Head - Subcurrent 9. The Flippy Dippy Project - Outro So I'm wondering if anyone can tell me anything about this album? How is it?
  9. silly, very silly sandman, xenomorph, ka sol, and b.o.t.f.b. together would be ridiculous
  10. tatsu - i agree, it isnt the most convenient to have to get up and change it if home listening is the plan... and of course the vinyl + cd deck setup is probably the optimal situation, especially now. raider - it's a good thing too if people aren't buying, they aren't making it! damian - not an easy question to answer. logically, it could easily be said that buying vinyl is foolish. but human beings don't run solely on logic, much to mr spock's dismay. you'll have to ask different collectors, fans, djs, and vinyl freaks what their take on it all is, but for me... i just like the collection aspect and the rarities. CDs can be copied over and over again and its probably much easier to find a rare old CD than it is to find a rare old vinyl. so in that sense, one can build a very personal collection, much like a set of cards, coins, bank notes, stamps, etc... you'd have to ask WHY people collect anything at all to find out part of the appeal of vinyl another great aspect is the cover sizes - they're probably around four times as large as a CD and often quite beautiful [though not so much in recent times]. i also appreciate that i can find all kinds of music that is essentially "unreleased" - i.e., never made it to CD [and in most cases - MP3]. there are downsides of course... they're heavy, not as convenient, etc - but this is a hobby, not a trip to mcdonalds i say! sound quality? debatable. i happen to like the "vinyl sound" if it has one [debatable]. longer life? i'd tend to say "perhaps"... if they're kept in good condition, why not? CDs get scratched too. akira - a big reason why i put this topic up was due to logic bomb's track "mental poison" (available on orebro freak factory i believe). i realized that there is a LOT of new music that i really dig that i will never get to play out anywhere... the situation kinda saddens me. the solution? buy a few CDs i suppose... i may have to. something inside of me revolts against paying 12 pounds or whatever for a CD when i know a vinyl costs so much more to make... it basically feels like i'm getting ripped off when i buy a CD cuz i know how much it costs to make the things (not much!)... of course the artists probably get more money out of CD sales (proportionatly) so there's good points to it as well. dam10n - i tend to agree... but if you're selling old vinyl i'd still be interested tom jaimz - the reproductive aspect is also a downside in relation to collectability... and that is part of music purchasing as well to the person who just wants to get music to the crowd and FAST then cds are probably the way to go... mark - totally agree! i think the new habit that labels have of releasing SAMPLER EPS and 3-part sets instead of albums is TOTAL TRASH... i don't like the pick and choose mentality. order odonata 6 was a fine new compilation but instead of samplers or a full LP release they've just been peeling single tracks off, sticking an extra basically similar tune on the flipside, and releasing that. pretty good setup for them i'd say - CD buyers can get one item and have the whole ticket - vinyl buyers have to purchase 5+ pieces of wax and then they still dont have all the songs... ah well! crap on them. dragonfly is still putting out a high VOLUME of records though so i give them respect for that... i just wonder what happened to the albums? one of the worst offenders, however, is tip.world... i'm rather sick of their poorly represented vinyl releases. with such colourful cd cases, why put out these bland black + 1 colour things that have shitty glue and no inside cover? and only samplers, still? absolum released a wicked album and they only put 2 songs out on vinyl... the album of the year (possibly) is put out and again, 2 track sampler [without the logic bomb, GRR!]... well, vent vent vent i have a VERY small collection of CDs, solely for the albums that are never released on vinyl... here they are: jaia - blue synergy power source - cosmic waves mfg - project genesis pleiadians - family of light v/a - eclipse: a journey... v/a - trancesonicdesertbeats buncha classics and good stuff there now i need them decks. argh, money!!! so expensive this hobby is.
  11. p.cok - liquid lunch midi miliz - restore my soul slinky wizard - fridge full of mutants x-dream - inter corporal stimulator zerotonine - boilin' & stompin' spirallianz - a fugitive jammy wizard - angstrom dispidoshan zerotonine - acid theatre the delta - standby midi miliz - cream auricular - pilfverdamurguhuhoohoo [whatever its called] can't really think of many i like, honestly... but i do think the p.cok gets very little credit.
  12. brain forest stands out cuz of the power try also MFG from project genesis album.. intense stuff
  13. maybe i'll submit a song i made years ago just to see how badly it gets trashed
  14. well it seems like the days are over where i can just skim and pick up whatever comes out on vinyl and not bother with whatever the labels don't release... cuz at this point, there are very few labels that are putting out vinyl albums at all it seems! which is a real shame (for me)... so what do you, the consumer, think of it all? do you break out your abacus and realize how much more money the labels make by going the cd-only route? as a listener as opposed to collector do you simply not care whatsoever? any other fans lamenting the loss... if i cared about whether i become outdated i think i'd be a lot more pissed off! but then again i wouldn't have any ties to the old world... i'd just plunge right in. anyhow, respect goes out to yaniv @ hadshot for keepin it real.

    MFG - Project Genesis

    One of my old favourites... there are some great tracks here... Why? for example. Incredible music!
  16. eat static - bony incus [mwnn remix] oforia - outer conception transwave - my dear medical assurance cosmosis - psychofunk pigs in space - visitors part 1 freeman & liquid metal - optical crystal power source - skywalker
  17. argh! same here! the tracklisting for the upcoming full length... Hammerhead Black Light Book of Eden X-Isle Zero Barrier Transparent Sea Liquid Neon Sky Blue Effect but honestly i wonder if that is the final list... i think as many as five of those songs have already been released on nova-tekk cds and such?
  18. wow.. every time i acquire a new chi a.d. song its like heaven... their new tracks seem so modern yet are so obviously possessing of the old school vibe - its an incredible and great mixture... deep trance beats, beautiful melodies, those little bass key changes that add character and emotion... great stuff - i know all is not lost now can't wait for the upcoming album... it'll likely be amazing as all these newish chi a.d. songs..!
  19. demented, dementerainment, and the eclipse album all had great designs & packaging - no fractals or tacky motion blur in sight if i recall right. part of appreciating this music and culture is appreciating some of the great art that goes along with some goa albums. i question whether a bland and more conventional style really suits the label's music...
