I think it's a bit harsh to judge an entire nations people in such a way. I know my perception is skewed because 99% of the Americans met have been those who left America, at least for a shirt time but at least half those that I've met have been great people. For me, the American character trait is not stupidity or even ignorance as a lot of them are neither ignorant nor stupid. No more than any other nation anyway. No, Americans are confident. Kids are raised to believe they can do anything amd often have no real sense of what they actually can do. This is why if you take a video camera and ask stupid people easy questions like "where is China on this map?" They confidently point to Mexico and say it's right there (and you know it probably took a lot if takes to get that answer) because they have a sense that they might be wrong. Most countries' idiot kind of know they're dumb and just wouldn't answer or would say "I don't know" so you don't quite get the same image from TV about how dumb we are. But we are, every nation on this earth has a load of stupid people. BTW I know I just generalised the entire nation as being confident but I know that's not true, I'm sure America has lots of underconfident people too, they just don't make it to exported TV.

Binge listened to the 5 releases I bought off of bandcamp instead of working today. Bloody good job. My expectations, as you might have seen above, were pretty high and you delivered brilliantly. This album, Dub Trees, and the accompanying CD are very nice psy infused dub. Perfect summer music as is the compilation Dakini Mother Tongue. The Suns of Arqa album though is stellar!! (That's two exclamation marks you might have noticed) I really enjoyed that and chose it as the first repeat. It just gets better and better throughout. The first three tracks are very nice, my jaw first dropped at the fool ascends and never made it back so by the end I felt like a snake ready to eat a buffalo. Really emotional and atmospheric while still groovy and summery dub!!! (That's three ) If these releases are indicative of your upcoming release schedule then we need to get the word out. Thank you for bringing Liquid Sound Design back. I felt a little guilty about spending money that I could have spent on toys and clothes for my daughter but he'll, she's got enough already and she'll probably enjoy these more (at ten months she loves anything with a strong beat and psy effects )

That's 16 years old now. Maturing nicely

That looks really nice. Looking forward to hearing it.

The label's opinion just as that of the artist is still valid. It's important though to not sound like a promo "this artist's exquisite talent will take your brain on delightful journeys through the cosmos" but giving opinions like I love this, I think this is great is fine. Also making sure that it's obvious you are the label or artist is important too On topic, this seems quite nice. Nice is definitely the word but I'd like to delve deeper before committing more pixels to the screen.

What a......novel idea I'll show myself out

Do, do I have to?

What I find really interesting in this tournament is that almost everyone will qualify for the knockout stages at which point anything can happen Although I predicted a semifinal line up of stronger teams, I really hope someone new wins it. Croatia, Iceland, England:lol:

This was a great post. Needs reposting I liked this album. First listen was disappointing, like so many later Dragonfly releases they were not the same as the earlier ones and young me did not like that, did not like it at all. But when I revisit these albums with their "minimal" goatrance style I am much more impressed. The music is quiter, more introspective, less balls to the walls and with the foot off the accelerator artists find the room to create some nice atmospheric trance. Out of Sight is not my favourite Shakta album, I prefer Feed The Flame, but it's a good album. Favourite track - Next Stop Kawaguchi

This is actually what I want from music. If I can clearly remember each track then it starts to get old on repeated listens. My favourite music I remember the experience of listening to it was wonderful but the music doesn't stick so I can listen 100s of times without it losing its freshness. Sometimes catchy music has its place but for me that place is stteaming, not buying.

You've never heard Rebecca Black's subtle masterpiece about the JFK assassination before? And you call yourself a music fan!

They said sorry and all was forgiven. Japanese society seems to forgive multitude of sins if you just apologise. It's horrible in a way. I feel sorry for this poor boy because his parents don't make good decisions and while they might no abandon him again they're likely to do something stupid in the future. Do you remember that British couple who left their toddler alone in a Portuguese hotel while they went out only to back to find her gone and they never found her. Who in their right mind would ever think that is okay to do?

It doesn't matter who you vote for, the government always wins.

Why McCoy? Is he hoping people will think of him as the real McCoy?

Honestly I think Trump is a waste of a Republican candidate. He is extremely popular with a certain type of voter but, and it's a big but, he's too unpopular with almost all Democrat voters and I think the majority of undecided voters. He's even polarizing opinion among republicans so what chance will he have against Clinton in the actual election? She'll take all the democrat states, the majority of swing states and probably a few solid Republican states too. She'll be popular with minority ethic groups and women before all your liberals and people who think Trump is a dick head. I think Clinton is scarier though as her bad points are more hidden while trump just doesn't give a shit. He's the type to say "I don't want Muslims in this country" which while idiotic and racist and totally unamerican is honest. I feel Clinton is more the type to say "Muslims are our friends" while sneakily passing a law that discriminates them. Trump won't win, but does the world really want Hillary in his place? All of this is purely my very uninforned opinion by the way. Hope I don't cause any offence.

Thanks! I love the name but it's just a shame my family can't pronounce it. It's Ka E De with all the vowels bring the flat sounds. My dad says Kai da My mum says Kay Dee My wife is a native Japanese speaker so obviously knows how to pronounce it but the intonation changes at different times as with everything. The trouble is she can't admit that it changes even when she says it and then has the audacity to nitpick with me when I over stress the De for example. Still I love the name, just need to train my parents to say it properly. I did figure out why they want to say Kaydee so much, Kaede sounds like someone with a strong Liverpudlian accent saying Kaydee. But I'm not Scouse so....

Indeed, there are so many experts around that would be happy to help but a lot of parents won't ask, maybe they're worried they'll look stupid for asking or are too proud, I don't know. I do know that my pride is not worth possibly fucking up my daughter in some way so I'll ask what she should be eating, if it's okay to help her stand up etc, because I don't know. I've never done this before but I do know that kids are too young to understand the danger of many things so need watching when left in a place where bad things could happen, you know like around big animals.

Seriously! Who can allow that to happen to their child? In Japan recently a couple abandoned their SIX YEAR OLD son by the side of a road in an area known for wild bears to "teach him a lesson" When they came back for him he'd disappeared and they couldn't find him anywhere. They didn't call the police straight away for fear they'd be punished. A week of searching finally found him in some army shelter and he's safe at least but how are these people allowed to have kids? Did they really think this was s good idea? A good way to punish a naughty child?

2-1 almost had it right but it wasn't the most convincing display. Payet though England vs Russia tonight ⚽🏆

I have a ten month old daughter, Kaede which means maple leaf (楓) Currently she loves Goa, she grooves along to it whenever I put it on anyway and gets pissed off if my wife tries to change it to something else I wonder how long this will last, how long before she wants nothing but kiddy music

The Mystery of the Thirteen Crystal Skulls The Secret of the Thirteen Crystal Skulls These two tip compilations were great. I think a lot of albums and even comps have a concept behind them, even if it's not obvious. The concept helps it flow and feel like a journey so I feel that albums/comps with a great flow probably have an underlying concept. The eclipse comps on Flying Rhino Freestyle spring to mind as conceptual albums that didn't throw the concept in your face.

Hello Robin, Thanks a lot for bringing Liquid Sound Design back. I thought you'd gone the way of so many other labels which was always a shames as I had only one 100% complete collection and that was LSD. A few come close but only yours was complete until you snuck beneath my notice I bought all 5 of your recent releases yesterday and now listening to Dub Trees - Celtic Vedic It's started off very well, strong bassy dub with a heaped helping of psychedelics My enthusiasm has become barely contained rapture on hearing your plans. Brother Culture's ISIS album was really nice, LSD's Kuba release was his best for me and mixmaster Morris? Morris Gould is immense! I'm really excited about your upcoming releases.

I find a lot of ambient like this https://www.discogs.com/Winterhouse-Sanctuary/release/2173254to be very psychedelic journey music.

Fear of what they don't understand: in this case the nature of gorillas.

Some zoos are okay. The animals are rescue animals and they're given wide spaces and taken care of well. Some zoos are awful and the animals just look depressed. I can definitely see the desire to stay away. God damn movies. I'd honestly never thought about tranquillisers' speed of effectiveness.
