  1. Some very nice setups around here! My stereo monitors are Bowers & Wilkins 684s... Running through a some massive Tributaries audio cables with bi-wired ends... into a LINN Classik Music preamp... I use the optical in on the back to go from my Auzentech soundcard to my LINN. I also have a Project Xpression turntable with Moon LP3 turntable preamp... Sounds great, but my room needs to be acoustically modified still to get the most out of it all. For headphone monitoring I use Grado SR325i's...
  2. Sounds a little like Quoth!
  3. Save your next Eeeexperience for June or early July when I'm back in town (if that's not too soon)!
  4. THis reminds me of when the Moby track 'Thousand' was in the Guinness Book of World Records for having 'the highest BPM in recorded music'... When it just sounds like just cranked the BPM knob a few times over an otherwise uneventful techno track... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA60u0sYZrY Ah well; I suppose he could've feasibly been the first one to do it.
  5. I don't really get why people want the things they like to be unpopular. Or, for that matter, why some artists seem to want the things they make to be unpopular. For all this posturing, if you specifically want things you make to be a secret, then you do care what other people think. I think it derives from the conceit of people wanting to displace or distance themselves from what they perceive to be unrefined, junk-culture that is easily metabolized by the philistine masses. These people feel they have earned the right to listen to more left-field music because certain compositional elements or production tricks deviate from the Pop-music idiom of 4/4, I-IV-V, 3:30, Love/Sex/Adolescent Angst lyrical content... Once elements of this experimental music are diluted, refined and repackaged as a snack that everyone can enjoy (as has already happened many times before with countless musical genera) these self-professed musical cognoscente are up in arms because they're forced to forge something more concrete (a personality perhaps) if they are to continue to distance themselves from the cultural identity they don't want.
  6. This is actually pretty good...
  7. Fuck BT, we need a 100 page topic on Basshunter!
  8. Yes! It's a spellbinding release and still the only officially commissioned electronic 'remixes' of the Cocteau Twins. Mark Clifford really nailed the style! When I listen to the 'Blue-Fi's it sounds as though Mark was still perfecting the granulated scratch-guitar sound that would be so heavily employed on the 2011 eponymous album. Interesting album; very raw sounding. I need to give it some more listens though. Interestingly they collaborated on the 'Pin Skeeling' EP tracks even before these tracks were purportedly produced.
  9. Smoked Oysters and crumbled blue cheese on a warm bed of fresh Jasmine Rice (with a liberal dousing of Frank's Red Hot Sauce).
  10. Hahah! I swear this bitch has it out for me every time I end up in her line. I don't know what I did, but she's holding onto it with all her check-out clerk angst. One time I brought my own plastic bags instead of economy ones, since I didn't have any on hand, and she's all like "excuse me, I'm not touching these, you need to do it," as if I urinate in my plastic bags but never in the economy ones. Wow! Which grocery store is this at?
  11. 'Humanoid: Sessions 84-88' is an awesome archive of earlier-than-early acid Techno by FSOL frontman Brian Dougans. Rephlex put it out in 2003... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AscwCka36Y4 Leo Anibaldi's Rephlex album 'Void' is a very underrated dark techno classic... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hIVaMS3pKM And Lory D's compilation of rare tracks 'Sounds Never Seen' on Rephlex is also essential...

  13. Hell yes! Radiant Silvergun has an immense soundtrack! I have a few favs, having been a game addict back in the '90's/early '00s... Man, coming back and listening to some of this stuff gives me a genuine rush!!! Donkey Kong Country 2 - Forest Interlude, my fav track from an already stellar soundtrack... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KE0lXt2BVzI Super Mario RPG - Smithy Theme http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq7TogDAFtE Streets Of Rage 3 - Night Club Theme!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RCEAQl_ntU&feature=related Kirby's Dreamland 3 final boss theme... I love how hyper-active Kirby music can be! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTaoEXvCk0o Sin & Punishment - Agave, a great rail shooter from Japan... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHg0tAlRUzQ The Aforementioned Radiant Silvergun.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgN_7sjTARA&feature=related Battle Garegga; a Japan-only shooter for the Sega Saturn... Fantastic electronic soundtrack! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb2jJbAxPr8&feature=related
  14. Christmas music just started playing non-stop at my work... I hear about 8 different renditions of every popular Christmas song; different singers, different languages, same bullshit... The production on modern Christmas covers is some of the most atrociously banal production to be had since they rush this shit to market in time for shopping season; no subtleties in the programming or interesting synth voicings, just a bunch of cunts practicing their scales over the downtrodden melody of 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas' in a pathetic effort to modernize it. Here's a hint; in your efforts to ostensibly 'modernize' a piece of music by exploiting popular R&B idioms for the vocals, consider that a line like "Make the yuletide gay" doesn't quite hold up in a modern context post nearly 100 years of linguistic evolution and just sounds ridiculous now! Fuck's sake!!!!!!!!!!! BAHHHHH!!!!!! FIRST WORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRLLLLLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  15. Yeah, tonight's episode was great! But now we have to wait until February for more episodes?! *SPOILER* I'm glad Sophia is no longer a linchpin in the progression of the plot. *SPOILER*
  16. I have not heard any Drexciya, but I have heard about them an awful lot. I have 'The Other People Place' album on Warp which was James Stinson's solo project and enjoyed it... What would be the best place to start? I've heard their stuff can be hard to find so preferably something that isn't an obscure vinyl-only EP from 1992 (at least until I go crazy for them and need to collect everything).
  17. Right now a canker sore in my mouth is making eating these salt n' vinegar chips quite painful :(
