  1. Hmm. Works fine on my FF. What version?
  2. Lame. What browsers are you using?
  3. There's already two dark themes (BlueBoh and Black Chrome).
  4. Raja Ram was a pleasant surprise - I was expecting him to play a bunch of cheesy GMS-style stuff like he did last time I saw him but he played 90's TIP tracks instead. I enjoyed Hallucinogen more than I expected as well, and Lucas was great.
  5. I like it. There's a few seconds around 3:32 when the lead randomly gets quieter though, not sure if that's intentional.
  6. Fun track, reminds me a bit of Ubar Tmar. I feel like the melodic synth parts could be louder or maybe EQ'd to bring them out in the mix more; the outro is my favourite part.
  7. Thanks. Very happy to read your comment about the reverb at the end, that was something I worked hard on.
  8. Thanks! I should clarify that there was plenty of manual intervention involved in making the track. I had to choose which algorithms to put together and then generate the parts 8 or 16 bars at a time; usually it was necessary to run the algorithms a bunch of times and reject the output until they came up with something decent. There's still a way to go before I can press a button and have it spit out entire tracks, but that's the ultimate goal. Also I disagree with your assessment of your own music, your tracks are awesome.
  9. New track, largely composed algorithmically (with some useful mixing advice from @astralprojection): https://soundcloud.com/incompetron/revenge-of-the-eternal-anglo All feedback gratefully received.

  12. Autechre's four-hour-long elseq 1-5 absolutely kills it. Very little is on YouTube, sadly.

  14. I'm not sure what you mean. One person (you) voted for it in the uptempo category and two people (Jon Cocco and Drosophila) voted for it in the downtempo category, so I put it in both. This happens with a few releases most years, and my policy is to treat each of them as two separate albums.

  17. Up to you. I'll close the thread and count votes sometime this evening. For now: UPTEMPO: 1: Kindzadza - I'd Like You to be a Mind Reader (Osom Music) 2: Morphic Resonance - The City of Moons (Suntrip Records) DOWNTEMPO: 1: James Murray - Eyes to the Height (Ultimae Records) 2: Khooman - Upheaval (Darkapuggla) I bought very little psytrance last year.
  18. Finally got round to watching The Dark Knight the other day. Really don't get why people like the Nolan Batman movies, his version of the character just sucks.
  19. This is bloody great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5U9577N-dQ
