  1. Krusseldorf - From Soil to Space
  2. Had a slow Christmas. No work this year but not much to do either. Went to the gym which was full of people until Santa arrived with his bus of hotties! Seriously, all at once there was just a shit tonne of beautiful women there. I think the class-that-really-works had just ended cause those ladies were toight! After that I picked my GF up from work and we went for dinner. Yaki Niku, the christmas dinner of kings. Came home and spoke to my family by skype. Well, by extraordinarily expensive mobile to mobile international call as it turns out. I bought so skype credit to call my dad's phone as he was out but he couldn't hear me (I could hear him). Now Christmas day is over here and I am looking forward to boxing day.
  3. I was into house and had a load of mix tapes of that but then one day at a party I heard The Green Nuns Of The Revolution - Optimal Creakage which is incredible when you are baked. In my attempt to find out what was playing I looked through the CDs and one image stuck in my head the next day: that was the dragonfly logo. I went out and bought Project II Trance and by the time Genetic - Trancemission came on I was hooked. Even sober I was mesmerized and could feel the music as part of me and I knew I had stumbled on something special. More than 15 years later my tastes have diverged a lot from the days when I was only listening to Goa Trance but I still regularly listen to tunes from nigh on 20 years ago and they still feel great. Maybe not the same elation I initially felt but still really amazing
  4. Yagya - Will I Dream During The Process - $127 Blue Planet Corporation - Blue Planet - $123 Evan Marc + Steve Hillage - $111 Didn't think this Yagya one was so expensive
  5. mega wanks socks brimming with age old jizz! About seeing the artist live: is this drugged up live or sober live?
  6. Searching for tablets that I can hook up a HDD to is also proving to be a pain in the arse! Seriously, I never thought this would be such a fucking hassel! Come on technology, pull yourself together. I think I am going to have to opt for a supremely small netbook (like the sony vaio one you can put in your pocket but not so damn expensive) and make do. Or give up altogether and shun all technology forever more
  7. If you could photoshop a festive reflection into my eye I'd join! However my own photoshop/gimp skills are shoite!
  8. Noice
  9. Not a happy flyer! Seriously. If you'd paid what you have to pay for 1st class and then get this, wtf? Also....how does that man have a camel toe? And....that girl in back is quite nice
  10. Finally he's been photoshopped onto an asian body. That picture looks perfect but I doubt he'd be drinking his Japanese brews
  11. Shpongle are still good but are they as good as AYS? or Tales of The Inexpressible? In my opinion definitely not. Electric universe fuels his recent music with cheesy guitar riffs. If that's your thing you could call it reasonable but it's far from my taste so I call it ubercrap
  12. Reading Chapterhouse Dune at the moment. As in all these works it is starting off slow and doesn't really encourage me to pick it up and read. I know it'll get better about halfway in though so I won't change to another book so I end up in a reading slump
  13. That system looks pretty cool but not what I am looking for. I've got a huge choice of speakers to choose from but only TDK will read the files right off the HDD. That SONOS looks like it needs a computer. Thanks though. I think a solution might be a small (7inch) tablet with USB compatibility. A windows one maybe or would android work with an external hard drive in a case like this?
  14. Iriver was my first mp3 player and I did like it a lot. Shame the battery life, which started out excellent, degraded so quickly. Has the battery improved much in the last 8 years? The main problem with that though is that the largest storage is nowhere near what I am looking for. I really thought there'd be something out there that would allow this but it seems impossible to play the tunes right off the drive without the giant TDK boom box.
  15. Is there anything not completely wrong about that
  16. I thought this was going to be simple but I have just spent about 3 hours searching without getting any satisfactory answer. Basically what I want to do is play the music files stored on my external HDD through a set of speakers without having to use a computer. If you take a look at the TDK Sound Cube you can hook an external hard drive up to it and it will navigate through your floders and play the music files straight from the HDD. The only problem is this is not exactly the most portable option out there in the field of portable audio. Instead of the bulk Sound Cube I was thinking of getting the much more portable Bose Soundlink which sounds really nice and is small but it can't hook up to a usb flash drive or a HDD. I therefore need something that could act as an intermediary between the HDD and the Speakers. i.e. HDD music files → Needs something → To play on these speakers What is that something? I am hoping for something portable. The speakers are small, the HDD is tiny and will hold my entire collection in 320kbps mp3 so I need something that will allow me to play the music and still keep this entire set up something I can put in an overnight bag. I really don't want to just get a large capacity mp3 player as the biggest one seems to be the ipod classic at 160gb which 1. isn't big enough and 2. I don't want to buy anymore apple products after the shittiness I got from the ipod shuffle that broke instantly and I can't take it back to the local shop but instead must find the nearest (not anywhere near) apple store to get it fixed. A seriously shitty company I'd like to be rid of. So is there anything that anyone would recommend? Cheers
