  3. Sounds like a great event, wish I could attend
  4. Just received this, very quick to get it out Thanks a lot, it sounds great so far (only on the first track mind)
  5. Artist: Ambientium Title: Fractal Philosophy Label: Kahvi Netlabel & Ambientium’s website (web release) Released: Early 2009 Tracklist 1. Hadron Era 2. Star Birthday 3. Infinitum 4. Another World Part 1 5. Another World Part 2 6. Europa 7. Fractal Philosophy 8. Touch Of Light 9. Home Ambientium are Lucie and Lubos hailing from the Czech Republic. This is the first and only release I am aware of and it is a free net release available from Ambientium.com and Kahvi.org. This is a release that shows just how good a lot of the free net releases can be. This sounds spacey and deep with a lot little psychedelic sounds, nice melodies and sci-fi imagery. This sounds a little like Distant System – Spiral Empire and could have appeared on Ultimae Records. The production is not quite up to the standard of the aforementioned musicians though and it would be nice to hear this remastered and have a few things tweaked. Occasionally the intro of a track doesn’t flow well into the rest of it and sometime the changes in direction are a little abrupt but overall I am very impressed by this album. It has what is more important to me than production, it has ideas and great ideas at that. This is a very visual album and while listening to it I am taken on a journey through outer space, passed dust clouds onto alien planets, being abducted by aliens & floating down along the length of a huge spaceship. This album also has a lot of different styles mixed in together, there is a lot that sounds deep and bassy like many Ultimae albums, there is also a lot of melodic tracks with even some glitchy ones, ambient ones, natural sounds and mechanical sounds and even one track that is a little bit on the cheesy side. Despite all these styles though this is best listened to as a whole as it’s a good journey better on headphones without any distractions. 1. Hadron Era We start off with a spacey track, the intro is very ambient with just a few wet synths and big rushes of noise that sound like a deep space explosion. As the intro ends we get a high pitched noise that sounds like it’s from a 1970’s Dr. Who. The intro doesn’t particularly well into this section of the track but that is forgotten when the high pitch noise morphs into a slightly deeper more atmospheric drone. The feeling of floating through space comes to fruition when the slight beats come in and little light melodic sounds like stars twinkle fill the space in between. The feeling we have crossed over into the Ultimae universe comes with the lush long female voice and deep rumbling bassline. The inclusion of some brief tribal beats near the end just adds a touch of the ancient to the mix. This is a nice atmospheric opener. 2. Star Birthday We go smoothly into the next track with more of the bright twinkling ambient sounds but this time behind everything almost imperceptible is the sounds of a crowd, it sounds to me like a playground or somewhere with a lot of people having fun. The spacey feeling mixed with the faint sounds of Earth makes me feel like there is some blending of realities here. A place where the universe we find ourselves in here comes close and touches the Terran universe. The kids fade away though as we pass on our journey and soon with the arrival of a nice deep melody played on a few different planes they are all but forgotten. These melodies are nice, one sounds ethereal the other more earthly in an eastern kind of way. Another lush female voice chants slowly over everything towards the end and it reminds me some of Dakini records’ old material. It’s spacey with a slight touch of eastern ethnicity. Nice. 3. Infinitum A brief break in the atmosphere as this track starts but it teases back in with flurries of the melody that will play fully later. The beats also tease their way in quite a glitchy manner and the start of the track feels a little disjointed but when it all pulls together and the deep vibrating bass comes in with a funky melody & broken beats the atmosphere seems deep and powerful once again. The melody that teased in the intro comes in fully around half way through and with the little synths that sound like falling stars it really does feel like standing on the edge of a cliff on a clear night watching a meteor shower. The music shifts from smooth and lush with a few broken beats to glitchy again and then back to smooth ambient with a few twinkles to end on. 4. Another World Part 1 This starts with some scratchy sounding rain. Like a downpour of slightly metallic raindrops falling onto a slate roof. This feels like I am out in a cottage in the countryside late in the evening with all the lights in the house off, miles from the nearest town with nothing but the rain, the stars and the feeling of night. The music is beatless and there is a pulsating sound in the air almost like distant space ships. The Pulsating sound gets bigger and bigger until it’s a full bassline, beats kick in and some sharp melodies & I feel like I am surrounded by lights. The beats become a steady 4-4 like I am moving or being taken somewhere as the atmosphere becomes a little more mechanical. Gone are the sounds of nature to be replaced by these slick high tech sounds. It feels like I have been abducted by aliens and taken onto their spacecraft. 5. Another World Part 2 A deep melody and some glitchy beats follow on in this short track. The melody is melancholic the glitchy beats mechanical. The atmosphere is all still here and it still feels spacey but with the background noises screaming like a siren, strange alien sounds coming up from the floor and the sound of the wind outside it’s easy to feel the sense of melancholy that is emitted from this track. 6. Europa The wind takes us over into the next track which starts out just like floating in deep space but after a couple of minutes the beats and a sharp acidic melody come in and it feels like while floating in space a huge spaceship has snuck up on me and I am now falling down it’s entire length. Along the way I see all the little details on the outside of this space city. There are sounds that remind me of air venting, of crews working out side and chattering over the radio to each other. Others just sound like huge buildings rushing passed me but the sharp melodic synths sound to me like the release of fighter jets off to fight and only narrowly missing my strewn form. 7. Fractal Philosophy The title track is a short one and a very ambient one, glitch ambient to be exact. All that I can hear is the rush of some sound far away, traces of subtle drones and a whole lot of technical glitch. Like a robot gone haywire but with the atmospheric ambience behind it, it is quite pleasant. 8. Touch Of Light Right from the start there is a really nice light melody closely joined by a second light melody just a few notes higher. These melodies surrounded by some trippy spacey noise are soon followed by an energetic beat. Lots of little wet sounds fall like droplets on a smooth polished floor. The beats become a little scattered but when they kick back in to a steady rhythm the energy seems to increase as well. The melodies are light, the beats are quick and the sample at the end sounds like an announcement in an airport, overall it’s a little on the cheesy side but it’s still a pretty pleasant track. 9. Home The final track is a deep ambient track with the sound of falling rain throughout. It feels like it is taking me falling through the atmosphere. The sounds rush about like they are swirling in the air and the soft melody seems like it is coming from all directions at once. As we go on the rushing sounds leave and the melody quietens down and we can start to hear the birds singing from down beneath us. New rushes sound more terrestrial as if they were aeroplanes or cars on the highway. It is as if we were home.
  6. Various Artists Title: Raindrops In The Forest Label: Psybertribe Records Released: 29 April 2008 Tracklist 1 Vegetal - Fast Food Issues (6:34) 2 Phobosphere - Seperate Reality (7:23) 3 Bubble Elevator - Big Bright Bubble (5:45) 4 Ovnimoon - Fab My Sun (Extended Mix) (7:37) 5 Magman - Tjallberry (Phobosphere Remix) (6:30) 6 Unknown Cause - Utopian Landscapes (9:47) 7 Audiovoid - The Melting Woman (9:48) 8 Audiopathik Sour Soul Soup (8:37) Psybertribe Records bring us “an excursion into the realm of space and new found sound waves brought to you by new and familiar energies of the beautiful underground world of future sound culture” A collection of relaxed tracks covering psybient, dub, ambient and glitch. The result is a story that starts off exploring the wonders of the elemental forest and they slowly introduce more human and less ethereal elements until the last few tracks seems to exert humans dominance with their machines over the beauty of nature. I have no idea if this is the real theme of the compilation as there is very little information about this release even on the label’s website. If it is or not, that is definitely the ideas I get from this music. The first 3 tracks have such lush melodies and natural sounds that they all sound like they are in the deepest parts of the forest. The next track Ovnimoon – Fab My Sun introduces some more human elements in that it feels in the first half like it is in a park rather than the forest but by the end the city has all faded away back into the forest. The next two tracks have darker moods and start introducing more human elements whereas the last two tracks are the darkest by far and really feel like machine invading the forest and destroying the natural beauty that was built up in the first half of the album. One thing that really needs to be mentioned about this album is the fantastic use of samples. Apart from the opening sample in the first track all the samples are integrated brilliantly into the tracks. Even though some of the samples are close to monologue length they never dominate, they never spoil the music or divert my attention away from the rest of the music. In fact they I feel like they are important parts of the music adding to the feeling the rest of the music creates rather than detracting from it. For me this is quite a feat as I don’t feel like many artists manage to use long samples well in any of their tracks but there are many artists here brought together on the same compilation. So if you like nice natural psybient with a themed journey, great melodies and lots of atmosphere then you’d do well to check this release out. The cover might look like it is trying to hard to look like it is new age and hippy shit but don’t let that put you off turn the CD over and look at the back cover, it’s just the forest without the woman and you’ll start to get an idea of what the music (at least the first half) is like. Track By Track Analysis 1. Vegetal – Fast Food Issue We start out with quite a preachy message in the sample about only eating fast food after we have been bombed by Anthrax or if we are stranded on a deserted island. I mean really, where are we going to find fast food on a desert island? It’s all up from there though with a cool tribal beat and some lush strings creating an ethereal atmosphere. I really am put in mind of the forest near my childhood home but this time filled with Shakespearean trouble makers. When the beat kicks into another gear in the final third the energy is pushed up slightly giving me a feeling of running through this forest. This is a very nice track aside from the opening sample. 2. Phobosphere – Seperate Reality This track continues with the tribal forest feeling but here with a really beautiful melody. It sounds like it is being played on fairy bells or something equally as other worldly. The sample is muttered but adds a human element to such mysterious track. It sounds like some human explorer is walking through the forest, marvelling at the sites he has seen for the first time but still totally oblivious to the real beauty of the forest. A great example of a well used sample. The track progresses very nicely as well with different melodies coming in and out & a whole host of trippy little natural sounds, natural yet so unnatural at the same time. Brilliant stuff, the soft ambience of the outro is also just so sublime. 3. Bubble Elevator – Big Bright Bubble Here we have another example of how to use a sample. The length of the sample is quite long but somehow it really feels like part of the music and not disconnected like many long samples. It’s spacey which fits the music and thought provoking at the same time. As for the music I said it was spacey but not spacey like Distant System but like being the aforementioned forest at night with a trillion stars filling the sky. That sense of wonder at how small and insignificant we are. The music helps remind me though even though humanity is a tiny insignificant speck in the universe we have still made such beautiful things. The synths here are spine tingling and the flute melody is a damn fine example of how to use a flute in electronic music. This is another great track. 4. Ovnimoon – Fab My Sun (Extended Mix) A short sample, bright melodic synths & a slightly wetter beat starts us off in this track. A nice little melody & a tight bassline make this the coolest track so far, it is funkier and a little more urban in its feel than the previous tracks. Not urban like bars & smoke but more like sitting in the park surrounded by trees but being able to see the skyscrapers in the distance. The whole mood changes halfway through though and as the bass & beats fade out so does the city, birds start singing and the melody steps up to the front stronger than before and showing natures dominance. Some more flutes used sparingly here just adding to the lush green feeling that oozes out this CD. Even the synth work near the end manages to sound green but it is like a shade of green never seen before seeping through from another dimension. Thank god for the extended mix 5. Magman – Tjallberry (Phobosphere Remix) A darker track here with an intro that sounds like it’s going to break into Michael Jackson’s Thriller before the rumble of thunder and foreign sample (not sure which language) which seems to abruptly stop to make way for the lead into the melodic segment and the beat. The beat is slow & there are some reggae influences in the background. The melody when it comes in is a high pitch sound over lush deep ringing sounds that along with the voice with all his indistinguishable charm and the reggae rhythms adds up to a track that seems at odds with itself. It doesn’t quite have the beautiful forest atmosphere of the other tracks but it does sound natural just with much more of a human edge to it. It’s a nice track but not my favourite on this compilation. 6. Unknown Cause – Utopian Landscapes Another long sample (English) talking about the universe and life, again while I usually don’t like these long samples, it is used very well here & even after listening to it many times I still enjoy it. Maybe it is because it is used as in intro and it leads into the music so well that it is still enjoyable 10 listens in. Maybe it’s the tone of the voice or the content of the sample that makes it so appealing. Whatever it is it adds to the musical experience instead of detracting from it which I am glad of. The music itself is more ambient here with a simple repeating melody and a strong but calm undulating sound. That sound leaves but the melody stays much longer with natural sounds coming in and out culminating with a river sound that runs right through my head. Suddenly everything is gone & we are left just with some acoustic guitar. Now I’m really a fan of the sound of a guitar so I could have done without this. After 7 minutes of pretty much an ambient track some funky beats come in alongside the melody that chimes along energetically like bugs in summer. Apart from the guitars I like pretty much every element in this track but it doesn’t quite have the structure I’d like from this kind of music. 7. Audiovoid – The Melting Woman This track is a much darker one this time with a harder and harsher beat and much glitchier sounds. A lot of the glitch in my head sounds like machinery with things banging, spinning and turning. I am put in mind of the huge logging machines they use to clear the rain forests. The dark atmosphere surrounding the glitch forces the image of loss into my head like the elementals that live in the forest are losing their home to onslaught of progress and modernization. When the melody finally comes in I have a sense of relief like the forest is fighting back. What comes next sounds to me like an energetic fight between the forest dwellers and the would be destroyers. Ethereal voices cry out trying to stem the machine glitch but the machine fights back and the glitch in the end seems to over power everything. Shame, I would have liked the forest to win. 8. Audiopathik – Sour Soul Syrup Here we have a stronger beat driven track with a similar dark feeling to the last track. A woman speaks almost indiscernibly at the start and then we get the beats and her heavy breathing. It sounds like someone being pursued through a dark forest at night and coming out into a clearing dominated by the presence of giant machines. The energy is high but gone is the light relaxing beauty of the opening tracks replaced with a more menacing feeling. The music is still great though with sharp acidic synths scything down through the trees and harsh guttural voices grunting in tandem with the beats adding what is almost an extra percussion. Cool stuff in the end to remind me that no matter how much we fight, there is no stopping progress.
  7. Artist: Solar Fields Title: Movements Label; Ultimae Released: 19 January 2009 Style: Downtempo Electronica Tracklist 1. Sol 2. Circles of Motion 3. Discovering stream 4. Sky Trees 5. The Stones are not too busy 6. Dust 7. Das Bungalow 8. Feelings (album edit) 9. Patterns 10. The Road to Nothingness 11. Breeze Solar Fields is Magnus Birgersson, the Swedish based electronic music master. In my opinion he is the best artist of the 21st century so far and his sound just keeps getting better. From his debut album Reflective Frequencies up until his double release Leaving Home & Extended his sound has progressed and just gotten better. His voyage into up tempo trance music with Earthshine was for me one of the best upbeat releases so far this century too. Having heard a few Solar Fields tracks on compilations in 2008, Jeezlh on Future Memories and Feelings on Ease Division 3, I was anticipating this album very much. As with all Solar Fields’ albums I did not fall in love with it instantly but had to let it sink in. I have listened to this at home in the living room, lying on the bed with the lights out, on headphones on the train, in the forest and by the sea. After experiencing this album in all of these states I have, like all the others, grown to adore it. The album is packed with subtle sounds that take their time before they show themselves to the listener so it is of course a grower. The mood of the album is changeable, it goes from earthy to spacey and back again. It is at times warm and often becomes cold and melancholic but returns to a warmer and more optimistic ending. Solar Fields is a great technician though & he manages to blend all of these different moods into one cohesive journey. This album is definitely an evolution of Solar Fields’ sound. A lot of the tracks are more upbeat for longer than in his previous downtempo albums. Whereas in Blue Moon Station & Leaving Home the tracks often loosely followed the pattern of 50% ambient then 20% of beats then back to ambient for the last 30% in this album there is more beats throughout most of the track. The variety of beat styles as well has increased evident from the start with Sol that has beats reminiscent of some Carbon Based Lifeforms tracks. The only thing I don’t like in this album is the flute in The Stones Are Not Too Busy which although sounded pretty good when I first heard it has gotten progressively more irritating until I really cannot stand it. I should also note that this is the first time every that a Solar Fields track has sounded worse in time rather than growing. The rest of the album is absolutely brilliant though, Discovering has this brilliant shift of momentum just before the end that just lifts my heart every time I hear it. The Road To Nothingness has a wonderfully dark atmosphere and is stunningly visual. All tracks are image provoking painting a wonderful story in my mind. Every time I hear Sky Trees I can see the stars & even their sped up movements in my mind’s eye. Great stuff throughout the whole album with for me just one flaw. It is a must for all fans of Solar Fields, Ultimae, Downbeat, Electronic music or even music. It will definitely be in the reckoning at the end of the year when I decide my favourites. Track By Track Analysis 1.Sol We start off strong with Sol, probably one of the best tracks on the whole album. The bassline makes the skin tingle and is one of those that just begs to be played loud on a big system. I played it at a live show & could feel the bass reverberating throughout my entire body as I played it. The beats are the best I have heard from Solar Fields so far with a great tripping feeling akin to Carbon Based Lifeform’s Photosynthesis. The sounds throughout vary from soft plops to sharp acid synths but all create a very trippy feeling like your head has been cut into thin slices and released into the ether of the cosmos. This is a great start the track has it all, the beats, the bass, the atmosphere, the melodies towards the end and the psychedelica all create something to get excited about. I’ll be surprised if I don’t include this in my best tracks of 2009 come the end of the year. 2. Circles Of Motions We go smoothly into the next track with a high pitched spacey sound that always in my minds eyes looks like the sun just edging round the side of a planet seen from a far orbit. The sudden light that flashes before you can grow accustomed to the new influx and the slow fade as your eyes adjust. The following few minutes are very minimal ambient once again making me feel like I’m floating in space and something starts to build with one simple sound repeating over and over but as the frequency length shortens so does the expectation, another sudden flash of the sun and we are underway, propelled through the stars by the slow beats and soft scratchy synths. The melody is similar in my head to Insum from Leaving Home with that light spacey feeling. There is a total shift of feeling at the end as the bassline comes in harder & there are a lot more wet squelchy synth sounds used feeling like the walls of reality are melting, if only slightly. 3. Discovering The sounds at the start of this track put me in mind of a thousand souls screaming out beyond the walls that separate me from the other realms but with a force of emotion so strong that they can seep through and penetrate my mind. The funky melody that accompanies them is a sharp acidic sound and the beats ground me into a more real reality. The melody that shortly follows the beat is simple in an eastern style and is underlaid by these bright melodic blips of sound like fireflies flittering about on a warm summer’s evening. The beats are very strong and along with the melody give this track a very Earthy feeling but the atmosphere created by the synth drones and the little psychedelic sounds push it more into spacey realms. Overall I get the feeling of lying on my back, in a field on a hot muggy evening while nearby revellers party the night away. The melody in the final part of the track is out of this world, the way it just takes the feeling of the track and hurls it into a totally new direction. From lying on my back in the field I am suddenly hurtling through space at super light speeds but only very briefly then I am stuck in a kind of limbo. I love it when tracks, like this, just have a sudden but fitting shift near the end. Exquisite! 4. Sky Trees Sky Trees is a little colder and feels like standing by the shore. The sound of sea birds can be heard overhead and the synth drones feels like a chill wind blowing over me as I stand there looking out over the sea. In the distance I can see the mountains and above the mountains in the night sky I can see a garland of stars. As the beat in this track picks up I can imagine those sped up images where the stars change so dramatically in the night sky. When the beat goes, I can feel myself trying to catch my breath at the same time as preparing myself for another barrage of movement and sound. Solar Fields, a master of arrangement as usual manages to put me off guard first stripping more sounds and going softer as if the track is about to end and then kicking the beat back in. It gets me every time in a great way. I would love to hear this track in summer in some remote place with no light pollution so I really can see the stars in the sky in all their beauty. 5. The Stones Are Not Too Busy This for me I think, like the opening track Sol was the most instantly accessible but unlike Sol after many repeated listens the appeal of this track has faded. This is the first time a Solar Fields’ track has gone backwards in my appreciation. Usually I first hear his stuff and it sounds alright but nothing special but then I can spend some quality time alone with it and I learn to appreciate all it’s intricacies and it ends up wrapped around my heart. This one though has just come to bug me. I think it’s the flute. The track starts very nicely with a warm Eastern feel and some light melodies, the atmosphere is pleasant and for the duration of the track the beats, bass and psychedelic background noises are sublime but every time the flute comes in I cringe. I wish I had the ability to remove just that single sound from the track and leave the rest which is, I must say very good. The subtle melody that lies under everything else twists and turns, shifts in and out and changes it’s tones time and again is great as are the big atmospheric sounds that add a very grandiose feeling but the flutes come in and spoil it for me and even before they come in I am dreading them coming in. 6. Dust Well, after the flutes we have a more minimal track with nothing but the sound of the wind and the creepy darkness that it carries from far away. A slow plodding beat like an unenergetic pounding gives me a feeling like I am watching an army of hundreds of thousands marching. The huge dust cloud they create covers everything so that you can not see them, all you can see is the dust swirling around and around driven by the wind. It is what lies behind the dust that is so intriguing as it is quite a dark sound I am inclined to imagine an army of darkness. Forlorn creatures bent on death and destruction. Lovely! It is the perfect reply to the flutes. 7. Das Bungalow Das Bungalow starts off soft, like it is following on from the dust but with more of a high pitched melodic sound that gathers more melodies to it to become a full intertwined beam off light. When the beat emerges the dust is kicked away to reveal a sunny but deserted scene. I still feel like I am standing on the top of a precipice looking down into a valley but it is now much lighter with the simple melody & strong beats giving a feeling I find a little industrial but not enough to make it a dark smoggy image but just like looking at site that will become a huge industrial park in the future. Now it is clear of humanity’s taint but the knowledge that it will soon become covered in steel & concrete gives it an almost sad look. 8. Feelings The brighter melody in this track does nothing to lift the feeling of melancholy. The melody might have a more cheerful tone but the atmosphere is still one of nostalgic regret. The beats are slow & they perfectly match the melodic synths, they both push down and as a result the music seems more reflective. I get the feeling when I listen to this carefully of being in a downward spiral, slowly spinning down and down like suddenly being to heavy for a tornado that has picked me up and my weight fights against the energy that is driving up & up so I still go down and down. There are a lot of sounds behind the beat and melodies adding to my tornado feel as they seem to be all around me but I cannot centre on them. A very nice track previously released on Ease Division 3 but well placed in this album and definitely part of the journey. 9. Patterns The template of this track is a very changeable thing. The music is very progressive & moves forward as it shifts from side to side, up & down and inter-dimensionally. At first I thought that there was just no plan and it was all a little bit too random but then I saw the order in the chaos. Nothing is truly random and there is a reason for every movement, the fact that my little brain cannot comprehend the motives for the arrangement only serves to put me more in awe of the stencilled sounds bombarding my senses. 10. The Road To Nothingness The minimal intro gives way to a dark atmospheric track with slow foreboding beats and a melody that seems to push at the edges of my paranoia. I feel from the melody here that there is something just out of reach of my 5 senses but picked up none the less in my sense of unease. As with the title, I can picture a road, a road through the forest wide enough for cars but with huge trees on either side. When I look into the forest my eyes cannot penetrate further than few feet passed the first trees. Up in the sky the full moon struggles to shine through the patchy clouds, the wind is cold and biting and the whole feeling is very creepy. Parts of the melody in the second half of the track really remind me of a horror movie but of course a horror movie with a really cool sound track, leading into a nihilistic nightmare.. 11. Breeze We end with breeze which seems to pick the mood up from the last few tracks’ melancholy to an optimistic tone. The melody feels like it could be in a summery dub album but somehow Magnus has managed to make it fit with a scratchy synth swirling eddies of dark light & a morose beat. The bird song is the only thing aiding the melody with its vision of a warm summer’s day. When the beat moves up a gear the melody is almost drowned out but then its older more aggressive brother comes to help. A very strong melody that could be played at a beach party if there was more of a dubby sound. What really makes this track for me though is the soft melody that plays just under the aggressive line, it’s small and repetitive but as such gives you that lovely little something special like it has been made just for you and while other people can hear the rest you can enjoy the little treats hidden away just for you. Art Movements comes with a 16 page booklet with a photograph for each track as well as the front cover. The front cover is a minimal light swirl that I find very provocative in its simplicity. As for inside the booklet, the best photographs have to be the one for Sol showing the sun beaming down through a break in the clouds over a field with 2 stand out trees in the left hand side, the close up of the pebbles representing The Stones Are Not Too Busy and the obscured tree showing Dusts. The Sky Trees is a scene I have seen a hundred times, staring up at the sky through the trees. The close up shots of circles cages & plants also help round off an amazing piece of art. Visually & aurally this is on stunning work. Thank you Magnus, thank you Ultimae!

    Recent ratings

    Well it's recent ratings isn't it? I watched most of the classics years ago. When I newly discover any old classics I haven't seen before I will rate them. but..... recently my bird took us to the cinema to watch the new Friday The 13th Movie, Friday The 13th Part 86 trillion It's pretty much what you'd expect, horny teenages go to the lake & get slaughtered More effort has gone into titilating teenage horror fans than making a decent realisatic movie for example but who'd want to see the reality ay? Overall it is decent enough, it scared the shit out of my GF but barely registered on my scale as it just not creepy. When will modern horror makers realise that rock & hip hop are not scary music genres. The only decent track in the whole movie was the during the final credits which was some flash back to the original movie. Average 5/10

    The Expendables

    Che Guevara is a thinking man's movie, an in depth film you have to think about technically far superior but....... The Expendable has so many of our action movie superstars!!!!! It will most like be utter drivel but you can expect it to be a big hit and a lot of fun! Che Guevara as you said is like Etnica, a few people adore it! The Expendables will be like Britney, zillions of people who don't really care like it because of the names.
  12. Or maybe it fits the name Hicksville very much
  13. Anything really although it's gotten more chilled in my old age. I can still sleep to Goa though & Paul Oakenfold's A Voyage Into Trance can still give me fantastic trippy dreams

    Kettel - My Dogan

    I think this is a better ride. Mayam James pt1 has some tracks I think are the best I have heard from Kettel but overall this is better

  16. Fuck fuck fuckedy fuck I think I just wet myself :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: Great news :posford:
