I'm really easily swayed to buy new CDs & I think you have sold this to me

Nah it seems radi has no idea what to do when faced with a link. "It's hidden in the words"

Solar Quest - Sola Luna

That looks great! I'll be looking to get this in my next order. From the names to the cover it looks great. Ambient on Demon Tea? Looks to be my style, thanks for the tip!!

I guess I was lucky, it was the second place I looked after being recommended it

Discogs! About 20 Euros. Forgot about the exchange rate.

Me Too Fuck. My. Arsing. Boots. When was this released? How is it?

I told him. Lets see if he can navigate that really difficult site. Cheers by the way! (as he will never say it)

That's fucking great. Best to be focused on

as you might guess, he has no idea. Sorry to waste your time :drama:

Atrium Carceri - Cellblock

Radi has a complaint apparently his IP is banned now he's back in Germany. Can someone unban him?

Atrium Carceri - Seishinbyouin I'm not listening to this properly (distraction free, horizontal, in a darkened room) but it's still bloody good. Can't wait to give it a proper listen (which I will very soon )

Been loving this one

Some Dark Ambient Atrium Carceri - Cellblock Atrium Carceri - Seishinbyouin

I think this will be great summer chill music. I'll wait until a warm summer day to properly review this.

I am not talking about the quality. I can't hear the difference at all. I'm talking about the style of listening. If you download music from a p2p site, chances are you are not going to feel the need to understand it (same with samples) you only hear what is on the surface & there is no need to go deeper. Just delete it & find something else that is more instantly gratifying. My problem with downloading is not the quality of the sound but the mental state of the listener. If I download something, chances are I wont even listen to it & if I do & I don't love it instantly I don't give it another chance, often missing all it has to offer. Hell, I never liked Koxbox - Dragon Tales when I had the mp3 but loved it when I finally got the CD. I doubt everyone will get what I'm saying & those that don't are exactly who I'm talking about.

shitty p2p download no. Lossless maybe but with a poor quality download you'll miss so much.

Colourform Visions of Surya Virtual Musical Reality 2008 Tracklist 1. Kaleidoscope (16:24) 2. Nubien Sunset (6:12) 3. Flying Carpet (6:47) 4. Monkey Puzzle (9:59) 5. Diving Into Sun (8:46) 6. Dissolution (8:36) 7. As Stars We Are (9:15) The third release on Matt Hillier’s record label Virtual Musical Reality is by Matt Hillier himself and the Jake Stephenson who passed away in 2005. As I have loved just about everything that Matt Hillier has put out & also Jake Stephenson’s output as Shamanic Tribes on Acid great trippy acidic music I had sky high hopes for this. I was expecting a soft ambient journey through magical lands & meditative states. I was not only not disappointed but this album blew my expectations out the window, surpassing them all. 1. Kaleidoscope The sounds of a busy street somewhere between New Delhi & the outer Pleiades set up a soft dreamy feel edged with adventure & discovery. The sounds of the street vanish & we’re left with wet spacey sounds like enjoying the morning mist below a purple sky in a field of blue & red. There is a strange energy to the music, almost percussive sounds oscillate back & forth in the air as long warm drones breeze through my relaxed mind. At times the air becomes thick with the sounds like the colourful air is pouring with sonic rain. Sometimes it’s a fine mist sometimes it’s a downpour but it’s always falling down around us. This is such a peaceful, relaxed piece of music that takes my mind away to an alien world where I can just lie & relax, wondering at the strange beauty around me. A kaleidoscopic world full of bright shining colours for a kaleidoscopic mind. 2. Nubien Sunset Nubient Sunset starts off again with sounds of life, what could be a tractor in another dimension, the bleat of a goat in a different life but as with the opener these sounds fade away into the distance as we climb higher into the strangely glistening sky. This is even more ambient than Kaleidoscope with very little but drones, blips of light electronica & melody so drawn out it’s hard to remember it even as you’re listening. A voice creeps into the soundscape as we go higher among the clouds & the wind, the voice is beautiful, ethereal & fills the heart & the mind with visions of joy. 3. Flying Carpet Flying Carpet starts with an electronic voice like that of distorted computer from the 1970’s future. The message is unclear to me. Whether or not I’m supposed to understand I’m not sure but my failure to comprehend has opened my head enabling the music, suddenly with a beat & audible melody to seep in & be soaked up by the grey matter. I don’t quite get the feeling of flying so much from this track as I did from the last one but I do get a sense of travelling & coming across something spectacular. Like walking through the jungle, climbing & hill & then seeing a long lost city of gold hidden away from society. 4. Monkey Puzzle Monkey Puzzle takes us back to the kaleidoscopic world but this time it’s darker, not dark in anyway but the colours all seem to be a deeper shade than they were before. They seem to have taken on an early evening hue punctuated by the glitchy sounds in the air like small harmless bugs that come out in the evening to feast on our blood but these ones are just floating around never bothering but with the faint threat that they might. I can hear the sound of spirits rushing about just beyond my visual perception. Out of the corner of my eye they appear but when I turned to look they are gone, yet they are still there. A very strange, ambient track full of unnatural nature & otherworldly entities. The end sounds like an alien Zen Garden pool with the sounds of infants at play and the return of the distant street noise. 5. Diving Into Sun The quite & peaceful yet busy & bustling street is there again & from this comes our first real beat. This feels dreamy & adventurous like exploring strange new worlds from the comfort of your bed as you dream the impossible & live the indescribable. The beats lift us up high into the sky again & the almost voices that are carried on the wind seem to whisper sweet nothingness. As the beats stop we plummet to the ground, down on to a flowing river but before impact the beats start again & lift us up, spiralling in a twist of sound & colour, of melody & rhythm, of excitement & contentment. This is a stunningly beautiful track, it’s bright & lovely and warms the heart & eases the tired mind. 6. Dissolution Dissolution is an aptly named track as I feel like my Musical reality is dissolving around me. The walls of my consciousness are ripped down & another dimension starts to slip slowly in. Sliding over the broken ruins of my barriers & picking up pace until the new reality is pulsating in my brain. The transition is nerve-wracking yet the anticipation of what it’s bringing is enough to keep my sanity. What we are left with after the pulsating has died down is a colder, darker soundscape with the twinkling of musical stars overhead. A cold wind blows around me but does not chill me, instead I feel enchanted & if not warm then at least content with the coldness. The night becomes big & deep with big almost orchestral sounds boom out like a warning before sounds like an approaching spacecraft dispel l the feeling & bring us full circle into a bright spiral of colour. 7. As Stars We Are The only track that is disconnected from the others is spacier than the rest with melody played on some strange strings. The spacey feeling is no more like floating through outer space rather than any alien world. Like we have left our temporary home on some distant planet in a galaxy far away from here, the music feels like we are floating serenely in no hurry but with a specific destination. Like returning home from a wonderful journey but with the expectation that your house will be cold & empty so giving you no reason to rush & every reason to hold back & extend the trip if only for a very brief time. Out of all the albums released in this series, Ishvara – Magik Square of the Sun & Elve – Infinite Garden, this is definitely my favourite. Those were great albums for me but this one is even better. So peaceful, relaxed & extremely psychedelic this takes me on a journey so effortlessly & each time the journey is a colourful brilliance that stuns my senses & soothes my mind. A perfect album for relaxing, meditating or just to fly away to. Any fan of Matt Hillier will be very pleased with this work with Jake Stephenson and any fan of Jake Stephenson will be happy with this as the trippiness is on a par with his other works. A great tribute, may he rest in peace.

my laptop speakers are too crappy & saiko sound samples always end up on my ipod no matter how I try to listen to them

life is a harley

I asked a fair question. "Is the cover representative of the music?" The cover is slick & a bit girly without being very psychedelic (IMO) & the title is very Pop music in style so I was wondering if this was what the music sounds like.

Trippy all the way. If you can mix trippy with dancefloor killer then that would be great on the dancefloor. I love dancing but when a track comes on that can actually stop me & stun me that's the best.

Free porn Gotta love it. I'm pissed off with Golden Week. A whole fucking week of public holidays (with no post :pissed:)
