NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Eat Static for me is the most fantastic artist out there. I have absolutely loved all their work from a to z. No other artist has really done that for me. Their sounds, their structure, is for me the most intelligent, most screwed up, most insane that I have ever heard. If it is ONE artist that has inspired me ever, when it comes to PSY trance, then it is Eat Static. I would give anything to spend one day (or more) with them, to find out what their secrets are... which synths do they use, where do they get their screwed up samples from? what are they eating in the studio to get such screwed up sounds?! Are they ALIENS?! I bet they fucking are! They are sent to us to show us about the outer realms of static! So, all of you: EAT STATIC! Quote
faze Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Haha! They are the Simon Posford in your RADIcal world. 1 Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 Haha! They are the Simon Posford in your RADIcal world.Nah, I dont listen to them that much at the moment. Im not a fanatic, i just admire them very much. There are many people that make as good as or better music than them... but they really AMAZE me with what they have achieved Quote
reger Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Haha! They are the Simon Posford in your RADIcal world. never listened to eat static much, have to give it a try some day dont know if its that alien tho Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 never listened to eat static much, have to give it a try some day dont know if its that alien tho if you didnt listen to them that much, then you cant say that you doubt its alien Quote
reger Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 if you didnt listen to them that much, then you cant say that you doubt its alien well ive listened to 2 or 3 albums, the first ones, also to some eps, so i think i could express my current observations. Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 well ive listened to 2 or 3 albums, the first ones, also to some eps, so i think i could express my current observations.quick reger, whats the 2nd track on the 2nd album? Quote
faze Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 quick reger, whats the 2nd track on the 2nd album? I think it's "Rue the Day"! Quote
Guest Cosmogenesis Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Indeed, Nemo, you're right, maybe eat static deserves a bigger attention. I love their musical and almost "scientific" work me too, and their particular style which is really something unique. Difficult to classify this project in only one genre/category IMO, because they produced sometimes tracks really different each others by the past. The "Implant" album is awesome. "Almost human " remains one of my top favourite tracks ever, I can listen it x100 times in a row without to get bored, it's a real lovely and deep piece, alongside with "habibeep" and "uforic undulance". Respect to those pionneers! Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 Survivors... what can I say? WOW! Yeah man, totally agree with what you say. Its hard to set the genre! I have however so many favorites, and I can not say which one is the best! hahaha Quote
reger Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 quick reger, whats the 2nd track on the 2nd album? Abnormal Interference Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 hellooooo, nemo?well. you sure take your time, now its MY turn to take MINE! Quote
Oopie Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Yeah Eat Static indeed. Their live show has set my standards of good performance to a whole another level. They truly can make people go nuts on the dancefloor. From the albums I like "Alien Artifacts", "Alien EPs" and "Adbuction" the most. Melodic, intelligent and u-f-o at the same time! Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 their music is not UFO its UFOF Quote
DeathPosture Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Hell yeah, Eat Static rules... I haven't got as much of their music as I'd like, but I'm slowly getting there. Just ordered a bunch of CDMs. Should arrive shortly. What's extra great is that their output never seems to decrease in quality. The TIP.World comp. tracks + the Koxbox collaboration tracks from 2006 are fucking stellar! Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 Martin, if there is somethingt that you cant get hold of, I might be the man to ask.... Quote
Guest Rezwalker Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 definitely not my cup of tea. the only exceptions from gold era who not deserves my attention : eat static and koxbox. Quote
Guest Rezwalker Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 also i hate the guy who disable the ignore functionality...maybe it's time to stop visit the forum...will c. sorry for the OT. Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 also i hate the guy who disable the ignore functionality...maybe it's time to stop visit the forum...will c. sorry for the OT. Im sorry Rezwalker, but the only person that is disabling your ignore list is YOU. NONE of the mods can disable it, ONLY admins could do that. I have no intresst in doing that nor does INSA (Which hassnt even been logged onto the admin here tonight). So, stop being such a child and accusing us of things OK?! Normally I would take this up in a PM, but you have driven me to the point where I can no longer ignore it. IF you want to stop visiting the forum, I will gladly remove your account! Whats it going to be?! Quote

ritual om Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 i also don't like their tracks very much. i have to point out that they have that spacey,mature and 'serious' psy approach in their tracks but it's just that their tracks don't touch me enough. i also want to add that their project (with other members ) ozric tentacles is the peak of psy-rock and generally massively provoking. the ozric discography is indeed top notch!

RTP Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Eat Static... I can't describe what I feel for those guys. On the one side I love Eat Static, some of their tracks are incredible. But others are not, I don't get some of their tracks (it's geting better though, but still...) and seen from that side Eat Static are really not special to me Can't describe it better - I love them on one side, but on another side I don't get their music at all... Don't have this with any other artist. Quote
abasio Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I love eat static! Almost all there stuff has amazed me. One of the first artists I ever saw live & they were spot on. Bought the cassette of Prepare your Spirit at that live. Amazing tracks on that album. They do great chill to, UFO over trenchtown was spot on! Quote
reger Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 well. you sure take your time, now its MY turn to take MINE! what? i posted reply less than minute after i read your question, wasnt there ASA you posted it tho now show me some respect, ive got inanna vinyl Quote
