Goa Bill Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 I have been playing X-Dream's "Best of" album and I have to admit that most of it sounds Full-On to me. Obviously top of the crop Full-On but Full-On nonetheless. Examples you want? We created our own happiness, Out there we're stoned, Panic in paradise and probably more. Discuss??? Quote

How you define full-on? Is it 16th bassline that is decisive, or other criteria? Quote

ecstasio Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Dont know X-dream is New wave - Punk, full on, and they were just about the best, way better then most others. In their period. Quote
Guest antic Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Same way as you define a cake as tasty. It's just is. So, there's nothing to discuss then, if you put it that way. I can't see how you can label it 'full-on', unless you mean it in the original sense of the term, which is something like 'energetic', 'in-yer-face', 'dynamic' etc... Quote

seraph Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 Good point Pavel. I somehow agree, especially in the sense how antic described it. From psychedelic full on to electro minimal, they are versatile ! :posford: Quote
rino Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 From psychedelic full on to electro minimal, they are versatile ! :posford:Very much so. In fact, versatility is what X-Dream has always been about. Just listen to Children Of The Last Generation, put on We Created Our Own Happiness after, let X Ray Eyes be the follwing tune and close the mini session with Thorazin... I mean, W - O - W - ! :posford: In fact, I don't agree with ecstasio's statement here that Rough & Rush were "...way better than most other. In their period.", because in my opinion X-Dream's time is not nearly done. I would be very surprised if the electro/minimal clash was the maximum they can give. But then, Out Here We Are Stoned and Panic In Paradise do have a certain full onish feel, true, I never came around to noticing it up until last night. Good point, thread starter. Quote

Yes, X-dream is fullon, and I do´t like their tracks because they are too nervous, too. Quote
Guest antic Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 ...and I do´t like their tracks because they are too nervous, too. It figures. You seem like you're a relaxed kind of guy, so no wonder you don't like them... Quote
Basilisk Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 X-Dream full-on? I don't think so. Not in the modern sense of the term anyhow. Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 X-Dream full-on? I don't think so. Not in the modern sense of the term anyhow.in 2000 my music was described as full on, listen to it now it has NOTHING to do with Full On The modern "Full On" just stole the name hehe. Quote
Drosophila Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 in 2000 my music was described as full on, listen to it now it has NOTHING to do with Full On The modern "Full On" just stole the name hehe.or it just turned out be a freak child... evolution gone bad! Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 or it just turned out be a freak child... evolution gone bad!my music or "full on" where is Otto Matta when you need him Quote
Drosophila Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 my music or "full on" where is Otto Matta when you need him you be the judge of that! no I mean what full on "has become"... or what ever happened!? Quote
abasio Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 Full On Yes! Fullon No! Early X-Dream stuff has lot & lots of energy. Exactly like what we used to say was full on. It's a shame that fullon became a genre ruining the reviews. Someone like Radi (quite new to the scene) goes into the reviews, sees old reviews describing music as full on & automatoically assume it means 16th note bassline genreic fullon shite. Damn names Quote
Somseensee Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 It figures. You seem like you're a relaxed kind of guy, so no wonder you don't like them... lol Quote
samuelh Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Stop putting mental labels on everything. It's music.. Quote
Otto Matta Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Yo' mama's full-on. Full on my crizotch. Ja, I don't listen to old X-Dream - it's a bit too "happy happy joy joy" for me - but from what I remember it was neither the old nor the new definition of "full-on", but closer to the former. Been a while, though. Quote

Discuss??? fullon has always been goa but a next step further, faster, harder... who knows in 5 years they won't call skazi full on anymore if you know what I mean not saying no, not saying yes... If this is fullon then so is astral projection, mfg etc... are the various compilations fullon 1 - 6 with tracks like cyble - well done, yahel - la esperanza, also considered as full on in this period of time ??? Discuss Quote
Otto Matta Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 You need to refresh your memory old man Probably. I just remember Trip to Trancesylvania being very cheesy and We Created Our Own Happiness being only a little bit better. Quote
seraph Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Probably. I just remember Trip to Trancesylvania being very cheesy and We Created Our Own Happiness being only a little bit better. Go listen to CHILDREN OF THE LAST GENERATION and come back and say that is cheesy. I won't even comment about WE CREATED OUR OWN HAPPINESS... a little bit better ? It is frikkin' amazin'. Quote
