That's usually the way it goes for me. Catchy music (even stuff I like straight away) gets quite annoying quickly. I prefer music that takes time to mature on your ears. I quite like astral though especially their SFX tracks. Astral's most recent music has been, ehhhh.... not so good!

Nystagmus - Consciousness sounds just like Infected Mushroom - Shen in the middle. Damn rip off merchants

I enjoyed it straight away. Listening to it again

Not really. The back of the CD says Future Surfacing (What Lies Ahead) 39:23 I think if the track was meant to be hidden they wouldn't say that the last track was 39 minutes but 24 minutes. It's arty farty nonsense for sure. Shame cause I like all the music but 7 minutes or so of silence freaks us out every time. If it was a hidden track, that would still grate on my nerves. With CDs now a hidden track is hardly hidden because the CD doesn't stop. I don't get why they don't just put it as a normal track without filling up the CD with silence.

Musica Divinorum was okay but I never really like anything else.

This is a cool album. It's not the best I've heard but it's quite a different sound from most other psy trance I have. A lot of it is very monotonous & repetitive and it leaves you with a very wide open feeling. I have all the Shaolin Wooden Men albums & this is my favourite. Favourite tracks are Are You Ready To Go?, Rainy Taxi & The Hungry Forest. Check it out!

East of the River Ganges. I didn't really like it at first. (Not really surprising with me.) But over the years I have come to like it more and more. It's such a journey, such a trip! Very beautiful sounds layered on top of really trippy sounds which seem different every time I listen to this. A quality release from Liquid Sound Design again. I'd love to see more conceptual pieces like this. If you haven't already heard this give it a try. If you already have, give it another go

It's nice urban ambient. I like it so far. Just given it the one listen up to now.

I don't get angry watching people loving crap. It's funny! Therefore bitching about it is a lighthearted Joke at the stupid twats

Kettel - Volleyed Iron

They are not the only styles released this year. Have you really listened to every release so as to say they all suck? Listen to Jikkenteki's album, The Long Walk Home. That is fantastic!

I find it really annoying how some sellers have to say everything is super rare!! Even those that are very readily available

How is volleyed iron? I saw it in HMV & was thinking of getting it. np

I have Pete Namlook + Richie Hawtin - From within 2 The music was good but 1 track had a 7 minute gap of silence which I'm sure has some arty farty merit but which to me just pissed me off The rest of the music was quite good though. I've seen the Plastikman - Artifakts CD around a lot recently. I almost bought it thinking it was Artifakt's 1st album.

I think they are better. Not more sought after though, they are all quite readily available. Check here clicky
