Tatsu Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I do the same, the only difference is that I listen to samples on Saikosounds or go to a record shop and listen there. And then buy the good stuff! Quote

Ormion Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I buy a compilation If there's an artist that I like a lot I buy his album Never listened to samples Quote
Tatsu Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I never liked listening to samples, sometimes they sound so cool, and then when you get the cd, its just plain crap.... 648113[/snapback] Has happened to me, but not very often so I still go with this modus operandi. I buy a compilation If there's an artist that I like a lot I buy his album Never listened to samples 648122[/snapback] I used to do the same, but there are so many releases I just can't buy any compilation just because there is an artist I like. I would if I had the money but... I also used to buy albums and comps just after reading the psynews reviews (the old ones) and most of the buys were good catches! Quote
Time_Trap Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 *doesnt hear fullon bassline=> listens carefuly you should listen carefully even if it has a rolling bassline mate. else you are missing some good stuff. Even some oldschool tracks had rolling/full-on basslines. Quote
abasio Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 1. I buy an album or compilation. 2. If I like it I listen to it a lot 3. If not it gets put on the shelf 4. I come back to it a few months later 5. If I like it I listen to it a lot 6. If not it goes back on the shelf This continues as a kind of cycle! Quote

TranceChick Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I get recommendations or through my own investigating Listen to the samples on Saiko Sounds If I like what I hear, I either buy it right away or wait 'till just b4 payday Once ordered.... wait patiently Package arrives! Play it asap! If and only if it's not what I was hoping for.... I ask my friends if they'd like it/them Gives Cd's away for free to friends Quote
snowball Posted November 22, 2006 Author Posted November 22, 2006 Sounds fair enough, if that is really your routine 648109[/snapback] Yeah,it is! (you calling me a liar???) I do the same, the only difference is that I listen to samples on Saikosounds or go to a record shop and listen there. And then buy the good stuff! 648111[/snapback] I have been fooled too many times from samples that sounded superb,but then the cd was crap. I buy a compilation If there's an artist that I like a lot I buy his album Never listened to samples 648122[/snapback] Sometimes a track by an artist is great,but his album suxxxxxx you should listen carefully even if it has a rolling bassline mate. else you are missing some good stuff. Even some oldschool tracks had rolling/full-on basslines. 648152[/snapback] I have to dig through a ton of generic crap fullon to find a good track.too lacy for that.if one comes by my way,and I like it,all is good. 1. I buy an album or compilation. 2. If I like it I listen to it a lot 3. If not it gets put on the shelf 4. I come back to it a few months later 5. If I like it I listen to it a lot 6. If not it goes back on the shelf This continues as a kind of cycle! 648155[/snapback] I sometimes do that with well known labels or artists.Mostly when its about ambient.with some artists/labels,you can never go wrong Just because of that point your strategie is the best i´ve ever read, don´t allow the fullon to keep space of your hdd, you can save really better things with that space. 648160[/snapback] You are the man!!!! Kill those boring basslines!!! Maybe you should read the rest of his strategy: 648161[/snapback] I get recommendations or through my own investigating Listen to the samples on Saiko Sounds If I like what I hear, I either buy it right away or wait 'till just b4 payday Once ordered.... wait patiently Package arrives!

Goa Bill Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I rarely listen to samples on Psyshop/Saikosounds. I usually get recommendations for artists/albums from friends, check it and if i like it, i buy it. Sometimes i get promos as well. Quote
Shaft Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I just prelisten on saikosounds and then order from psyshop or saikosounds depending on availability. Quote
TranceChick Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 You are a Saiko freak.Yes you are. 648174[/snapback] Yar, you betcha! I'm addicted! I rarely listen to samples on Psyshop/Saikosounds. I usually get recommendations for artists/albums from friends, check it and if i like it, i buy it. Sometimes i get promos as well. 648250[/snapback] Spoiled! Me too............ hehehe Quote
echo void Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 I don't really have a routine... I can't keep up to the things I keep finding out that I want... be it listening to at a friends... artists who have never disappointed... artists who I have seen live... compilation tracks that are awesome will convince me to buy the full CD... samples from saiko sounds... no routine...
