For me this can be quite disturbing. Ok, the specific artist and album look like to be somewhere between industrial, extreme metal and psytrance and targeting for a neutral occult atmosphere. But for a more psychedelic or goa synthesis such or more targeted (politicized) references would be unsuited, could feel foreign and for sure regardless of side, lines and colors. Wouldn't such samples be spoiling for the feeling of the music and diminishing for its essence? For example, instead of a sample or a voice of a scientist, a visionary, a psychic, a poet, a guru would be politicians or whatever political messages. I think goa trance is a musical expression that has to do conceptually with images and themes like space, cosmology, futurism, exploration, mysteries, nature, science fiction & theories, intellect & consciousness and spirituality in general, like hinduism, mythologies, theologies etc.. Of course it would be deficient not to mention that this genre was born in and expresses a spirit of freedom. How much pleasant or tolerable such references and expressions in the musical synthesis could be? Can there be exceptions and of what kind?

What do you think about this? The so called 'democratic' agreement that's on the roles between the EU and the USA. Please state and phrase your arguments Pro or contra: make a valid point. We are here to learn In my opinion the biggest problem with this agreement is: 1) There is an ultimate secrecy about it, what always makes we suspicious. Democracy should be about openness. 2) It gives too much power too big cooperations. Not because they want to protect their interests, but that the agreement states it can be done by lawyar and we all know that due to procedural ethics you can buy 'justice' these days. Smaller companies will drain in a swap of regulations and not be able to stand against big firms. This will lead to more world domination of even fewer 'player' on the - what we still call - the free market.
