Well according to PB, there's 2 bonus download tracks for those who buy the CD. So yeah, take my money :DD

Started Life Is Strange yesterday, playing 1 episode per day. So far I like it, the gimmick with rewinding time to change and influence events is nice, even if (as the ending I got in episode 2 proved) everything doesn't always go according to plan, and as choices do seem to matter (and probably will even more in the upcoming episodes) it has replay value as you can make different choices on your next playthrough, and see if it was that seemingly insignificant choice you made that turned out to be fatal. Not overly complicated to get the hang of, and the watercoloury art style is mostly nice, if a bit plastic but I hardly ever complain about graphics in games anyway.

Waking up To Chaos and Crossworld are actually my favourites on this one.

I actually was there. But at OZORA 2011 I was in a good mood when they played, and at S.U.N. 2013 I was feeling like shit when they played. Might have something to do with which gig I prefer But TBH, I kinda wandered around the dancefloor and surroundings for most of the X-Dream gig still feeling a bit disoriented before finding a plastic chair (around when they started The 1st) and promptly sat through the entire The Delta set in said chair being completely mindfucked.

And the one album I always seem to forget for some reason: Amygdala - Modus Operandi (if you ignore the dubstep-ish tomfoolery in the beginning and end of the album). This is almost perfection:

I'd personally go for Celestial Intelligence regarding the Kumanovo/Macedonia connection And the Artifact303 album is kind of a love/hate one for me. Sometimes I think it works wonders, sometimes I find it all too fluffy.

Apparently I'd really need to see Ex Machina and The Martian? Haven't really watched any movies in ages. Well, my sister took me to see Star Wars about a month ago but that's about it.

Zeta Reticuli (Original) > Time Dilation (Original) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> everything else Pleiadians Oh, right. Going with the offtopic flow again...

You wouldn't believe the reactions I get here (here, as in, Finland) whenever I mention that I don't find Filteria to be anything special. Even some darkpsy guys go all looking like they almost want to burn me for heresy

Yeah, mostly But, outside is where this music is supposed to be, indoor parties always have a slightly different (restricted maybe?) vibe than outdoors. And this flipped a switch somewhere in me. They finished their 2011 set also with "The 1st", can't remember if it was this exact version but anyway. We are the first. We are the last.

Honourable mentions: Xenomorph @ ZNA 2015 - absolutely fantastic X-Dream & The Delta @ OZORA 2011 - perfect mindfuck coming down (also literally, as in I walked down the hill from behind the dancefloor when they started) from a nice acid trip Logic Bomb @ VR Makasiinit, Helsinki 2003-ish - when fullon was still fresh and non-cheesy Asura @ OZORA 2010 - coincidentially also my first time on acid so it was, uh, intense Art Of Trance @ S.U.N. 2013 - I actually cried during the set (and was fully sober too) and not exactly psy but Anoushka Shankar @ Boom 2014 was marvelous

Look what I found on Youtube <3 This is a goldmine. Almost 2h15min of Slide and side projects.

Absolutely essential if you ask me (artist albums only, apart from the last one in the list) PortaMento - The Portal Merr0w - Born Underwater Crossing Mind - The Inner Shift BlackStarrFinale - AURYN Ephedra - Journey Through My Head Goasia - From Other Spaces Kadasarva - Steamagination (although most woudln't probably call it "goa" per se) Omnivox - Fragments Of Evolution Trinodia - Stargazing The World Beyond (Neogoa)

Arrived today <3

Yakov Biton (early GMS, Spiral Active Project) passed away earlier this year. Read it on Facebook the other day, don't know further details

Obvious question: anything extra in the Digipak edition?

And someone sometimes claimed that there actually is a Transwave track called My Dear Medical Insurance that's "super rare". I call bullshit on that. But anyway, Helium is the first goa CD I bought. It's my treasure <3 Phototropic on the other hand is kinda meh and the mastering (and the mixing actually too) on that album is atrocious to put it mildly. Well apart from the title track which is nothing short of fantastic (no wonder I opened my Kosmos 2015 set with it).

So I take it "ambient" again means "anything psy that's not danceable"?

Submatukana - The Krypt (Kadasarva Remix) from Ektoplazm. Couldn't find it on Youtube.

Toï Doï - Oxigen

Cydonia - Haunted World

<nitpick> How is that 100% if you're excluding a certain time period or a certain portion of their output? </nitpick>

Well in that case I guess I'm not normal
