    You Welcome! The mastering was a difficult task, we had several mastering sessions to get the proper sound accurate and sharp. my favorite mastering is micronesia which sounds amazing. bright and clear, Jamie was writing most of the tunes alone and it's clear that he was more focus on the vibe then polishing the sound. There's also a very common thing with old tunes, back in the day there was no real mastering, everyone wants to sound loud, so a bit compression and limiter on the master bus would make it sound fat and big, and those are the master files, with limiter on it, which makes it almost impossible to master without manipulating the sound. so the final result was very impressive I think that consider the challenges Tim Schuldt made an amazing mastering work here. gentle and accurate in one hand and quite polished and a bit aggressive on the other without "adding artifacts" to the sound.

    So you are claiming that A LOT of people haven't received the CD's based on discogs "I have it" functionality, believe me, I respect your imagination and investigating skills, but this is far from reality. I can tell you that a lot of our customers are not using discogs or psynews. For some reason i'm getting the sense that you're just enjoying the heat...

    Never! indeed there were some massive changes in the Israeli postal service in the last 6 months, they switched CEO, it was a national company, now it's moving to private, lots of crap, you guys feel it. and i feel sorry for that. but eventually it will all get sorted. I'm still bugging our account manager to make sure it's all get on time. Though, It did cost us a lot of coffee and soda meetings with them I can share with you that I'm still trying to figure out how to synchronize our shipping system to automatically print labels with the barcodes and all, we're almost there, once i'm done developing it then our ability to report back all packages to the post office instead of doing everything manually, that will force the postal service to process packages faster, for example, the first queue after a presale is always the fastest because it's under exporter agreement, that's why i'm pushing everyone to buy on pre-order, not because we afraid it will get distributed on the internet, but because a one chunk shipment is always faster. a single shipments are being processed manually... manually = slow.

    Alright, after everyone took the chill pill - let's clear up some things here: Anjuna was not created for profit, so please keep your tongue clean, or far as i concern you really, and i mean it, you really don't need to buy our music if you feel someone is playing with your cash. believe me - We don't need your cash if that's what you feel.Scroll up, almost no talks about music here with all the magical 303's in this album and none of you got the nuts to say, wwwaaaawww? all you care about is bandcamp? I mean, common, You're talking to one of the audiowarez scene founders here, how hard for you to dl it through torrent? You have problem with shipping? that's why we have mailbox for we answer everyone 24h max. - Note that those threads are made for music talk. happy talk, you feel angry? pissed? put a paypal dispute, ask for a refund, it's allllright maaaan! Let me put it in simple words, THERE ARE NO TRANCE LABELS TODAY, it's all boutique labels, running by a one-man-show. 99% distributing through digital, none of you have the slightest clue how easy and simple is to upload a .wav file massively, make a front 1000x1000px cover art and viola! you have an album. I insist on printing, going through all the complex of top quality CD printing process which i know no one really care about, while we going pixel by pixel to make sure that everything is aligned, and QA'd properly.Just saying - look deeper, it's always good, there's a story behind all of this. there's a goal. there's a tribal thing here, and if you skip it, you're missing the whole point.We do though give you a nice fancy invoice on each of your purchases, while no one else (almost) does in the digital world, so respect that we respect your money. and respect that we respect your hard earned money and that the fact that you're choosing to spend it to help the artists is a VERY IMPORTANT THING for us. most of you don't know, but 99% of the artists that squeezed the shit out of themselves with acid to experiment a new style of music, to extract this whole magic into synth lines, wasted, lost their education, broke up families, left basically (mostly) with nothing, for me, they are still radiating and always will through music, their will to create music is extremely important, if our little push helps then yeah, we did it - together. So yeah, we have shitty post office, but it's getting better and better... to make sure packages arrives in reasonable time we signed an exporter agreement, that means packages must leave israel in 24h range. you guys simply have no fucking bit of a clue how much efforts i did to make sure your goods arrives on time. so unless you want to pay 37$ for every copy through UPS......... that's how national mail works. we all know this. Everyone who bought the Nervasystem album during Christmas period had delays, that's december-january in postal world, nothing new here Regarding distributors, we have a LOT of local shops buying from us 100's of copies. we will NEVER outsource distribution exclusively. the main reason you see less labels today then 90's is because of that. those distribution companies caused massive loads of politics and intrigues between labels, when they fallen down they took lots of labels with them, there's no code of conduct there guys, sorry to be the messenger So let's keep it clean and positive, I've said what I had to say, you can agree, you can disagree it's alright as far as i'm concern, we will continue our hard work and enjoy it Enough depressing notes for one evening, have a great week guys. PS. if you have something good to say, please - say it to Jamie

    Thanks for the advice about how to run a label and raise a baby problem is - CD's were shipped 23 days before. So this is the love and compassion everyone say's disappeared from the trance scene i guess Peace to you guys, don't bother to comment any more. I ain't going to read it. Tal

    Your comments guys are really out of order. You can chose rather you wish to buy directly or not. honestly. after reading your comments, I don't really care. I personally shipped over 270 copies in 3 days. if that's the feedbacks I'm getting from you guys after my contribution to the trance scene, you should self-criticize yourself, try to put yourself in my shoes once and understand the huge effort being done here to keep this vibe alive. Ps Antic: you bought an album offered in preorder, you should read carefully next time what you buy. all our albums are offered this way for one month. Peace, Tal

    Hi Antic, Indeed, out of 300 shipped copies 18 returned, that is statistically acceptable. although we are always looking for ways to improve our shipping methods and arrival time. I care for anyone, otherwise i wouldn't be spending my time and efforts on releasing this music, compiling, producing, packing, shipping, building the website, investing money that you others can hold this music, so frankly, and i'm really being honest, I don't care though for people that flame, if one chooses to state that he is not buying directly from us, i'm fine with that, nothing personal at all. note that not every smile is cynical Small question, how can you declare that the album sale started 1 month before it was printed? which is quite wrong. Beside that sorry if answering on emails is slow in the past 2 weeks, My child was born on 25th of December and I've been on/off feeding and replacing diapers since then Peace, Tal.

    Not at all Antic, some prefer to order from other partners around the world. that's totally fine
  10. aurax
    Well, instead of blabbing why won't you just send me your address again so i can reship you a copy
  11. aurax
    Thank you Stay tuned as more releases coming up soon.
  12. aurax
    You know, even if you order our CD's from another shop, they still coming from the main Anjuna shop and ps. I shipped you two copies :::-)))

    Hi, Well. just think that most of the tracks we released came from 16/44 DAT tapes, it would be a filthy lie to sell it as 24/96. Would you guys be kind enough to sponsor our next DA converter for 10k$? In today's music industry there's a lot of eye candy, gold rush behavior to make you feel good with what you buy, we don't participate in this so yeah, we will continue releasing digital in 16/44 as it was recorded.

    Ufomatka's album is in the making now.
  15. aurax
    No special reason
  16. aurax
    Great decision

    The Syb unity tune from VA Lucid Flux is one of my favorites, also because the mastering is absolutely amazing.

    I think that the freedom to experience has dropped, captured by society's standards and fashion demands, slowly it enters the only free domain of any rules or obligation. Everyone afraid to admit that "psychedelic music" has turn from intelligent form of music intro a mind controlling mechanism that serves the drugs. Very similar methods, and in my perspective - flows side by side. But it's a phase, eventually those "newcomers" will replace this with something else...same as upgrading their iPhone.
