  1. Rediscovered Front Line Assembly after 10+ break. This was the shit back in the day before turning myself into 100% IDM trend nerd. Was more a Skinny Puppy fan but in my case FLA seems to have stood the test of time better (the 90's stuff that is, can't really get into post 2000 stuff). Kinda thrilled about this. Glad I didn't sold my discs at one point. Some picks: Okay they're way more EBM than pure industrial butwhatevs (and [FLA]vour Of the Weak is very strongly Techno influenced). But it's all Industrial, eh??? Also, have been digging Download's Furnace:
  2. 100 points for originality: finally someone agrees Saw the promo vid for Dig and it made a big impact. The album had so many good tracks -4, Everything and Nothing and Nothing to Gein come to mind. Another band which I dug from "Sickness collective" was American Head Charge. Saw them when they opened for Slipknot back in 2002. I actually liked their set better. So War Of Art was another winner. Aside for those two I really dug Dog Fashion Disco (SOAD/Bungle inspired stuff) Fetus on The Beat (the version from Committed To a Bright Future) was/is also lol Spiral, your Clutch is too underground for this thread. Never liked Papa Roach or Linkin Park though so I must have still some street credibility here. Also, need to point out that Mushroomhead was just poop....and so was Downthesun
  3. Le Talium hits heavy and hard. Underground Perversions roster might be worth to check out although it's more a hardcore label. On the other front: dunno if I love this or not....thought to post it anyway
  4. flacs sound the same as mp3 also 44100 samples/second is way too many. you only need like 4 I've got only 192 k mp3 version which I grabbed straight from SC. Has it been available anywhere else with higher bitrate? 320 kbps / FLAC would be nice.
  5. You maybe know this but Rephlex stuff will be added there at some point. Or so Rich said. Thought it would be soOon when the shop opened but, oh well
  6. I thought Rich was done with Soundcloud and focusing on the bleepstore instead Doesn't really matter, just want them asap!!!!
  7. Yeah something's coming. I'm guessing the tape tracks? I'm beyond hyped for those. What are the tape tracks? Sorry read that thumbnail, but didn't seem to reveal alot...
  8. lolled a bit before realizing the sad fact that I actually look more or less the same than I did those days. Can't even grow a beard. Low T levels maybe?
  9. I remember I was way more into Three Dollar Bill Y'all$ than Significant Other which was too Hip Hop for my pleasure. Also guilty for playing in a nu band. Even had a 7 string "Korn stick".
  10. Cargo pants (M-65, BDU, call them what you want) are the only pants I wear. I love how I always have a big pocket available + they're comfortable to wear and durable. Don't need to buy that fancy male purse. I just hate jeans. Most uncomfortable piece of clothing imo. I have a stack of old Metal Hammers and Terrorizers which I've been revisiting lately just for laughs and there are some hilarous stuff. I.e. take this one old Slipknot interview. How pompous do these sound: "I want the biggest metal breakdown ever" - #6 Clown (haha got that right), "There would be a big pile of corpses at truck stops" - #7 Mick "Hate" Thomson, "I crave for total insanity"- #8 Corey Taylor plus many other class A proclamations. Maybe 15 yo me took them with awe. Strikes some teen nerve I guess But new metal....dudes, you always overlook CC bumping, bumping and looking eh, full of colours On a totally serious note, at the time MH, Terrorizer and Earache tooted this as the best thing of the decade (that is until System Of A Down S/T came):
  11. Yup. Stock up on Javex and steel wool. Wrong, all you need are long fingernails.
  12. Really wish Rich would continue to upload the old stuff after he'll finally get his precious customized tape deck back from repaire/maintainance. I know he said he will most likely use his bleepstore for the new archive uploads too, but imo Souncloud would be more handy with that kind of project. He could put the best gems available to purchase to the bleepstore and put the others to soundcloud (with downloads embedded of course ). Would lower the bar to put "not the most perfect" tracks there too and dunno if it would be reasonable to master every one the new tracks anyway. And since the comment thing was so important to most of people, sc would take care of that too. Yes, you can make comments on Bleepstore too, but the discussion on sc was more track orientated. I'm just being greedy and mingy. AFX SC was the best thing ever and would really love to see it continued since the execution was perfect. The totally randomness was also a big part of the appeal. Never knew what period was going on at the moment. Could be totally different style and period from the last track uploaded. I'll live in hope.
  13. Agreed yeah, I was thinking that earlier today actually. I don't recall his comment though. For some reason I always assumed the other track was MARCHROMT, which was slipped to limited Japan edition of Syro at the last minute (i.e. the other tracks were handed out to Warp a way earlier, so in principle Syro was already "done"). Somehow remember I read it from Syro thread. Possibly a false memory as no-one else have brought it up by now. #yetanothershitpost
  14. @lopez Jeez, bad. I can understand they were all little touchy thanks to the shit in their personal life at the time. My guess is that you happened to give the final spark to lit the fire with, like you said, a fucking joke which meant nothing. It could have been basically anything, just gave a reason to let some fume out. But it's little hypocrite, as we are now talking about a genre which isn't known for a clean healthy way of life where only green things can be found from your salad plate and only pills you take are vitamins. And you are totally right, if the ordering options are cryptic as hell, there's no point of complaining if paying customers are left little confused. Sometimes it's even a mystery what you end up getting in the end. Like in this MNLTH case, we didn't even have any sound samples or anything. Only an email address where to send the payment for either one cassette or for the whole series. Maybe we are just so dumb that we buy anything without questions asked. But yeah, that's enough stirring the shit. Maybe we will get an explanation at some point.
  15. So the other volumes coming were Rave Tape, Techno Tape, Mixtape and...anyone remember what's missing? iirc it was the next in line with the "set". It must be something really shit Dave is going through, but this total radio silence is super lame especially since people really paid that 80£. what was all that about? Sounds quite weird from JK. I believe I ranted way much more than you about the set. Hell, that was the reason why I decided to join the happy watmm family.
  16. That's crazy, I had the best time ever when I was taking mine. This might sound unbelievable but I don't go out too much. Can't even tell what I would need a passport for.
  17. Well, keeping quite many threads alive. Endless source of inspiration :) Maybe he's got a magic hat where he pulls all that stuff out.
  18. This one is getting surprisingly lot of praise even on afx fanboy standards. Yes, it's good and all, but I have to confess I really like Cheetah more. imo it's the strongest one of these latest ep's, although general consensus seems to be quite opposite. True, I've had a whole year to let it sink fully in and like I've said, I'm little slow with getting totally in with new music so not giving my final judgment too soon. T69's, both of 'em, have become my favorites from the EP, passed even the holy MT1 track.
  19. More appropriately, can you listen to it (who has a tape deck these days)? I posted a thread asking this question a while back. Overwhelmingly most people have a means to playback cassettes Yup Joyboss, there has been a somewhat big tape revival phenomenon which begun a couple of years ago, mostly thanks to small indie labels. The tape thing never left the true underground scene (sic) but it has now resurfaced for the masses. fletcher's question is legitimate though since there is some hipster element absent too. Makes your shelfie look better.
  20. yeah a bit! future hab Yes, this. Feeling this one falling under the same category as HAB-RDJ LP-CTD added with the 2010's Aphex flavor ála Syro and Field Day LP. Can't hear any Drukqs in this though. Can't understand where that idea comes from.
  21. Oh you adorable dotard, ie. Collapse (the track) sounds familiar as Rich played it at Houston...and you were there yourself I know Collapse was played at DfN... that's not what I am talking about. To be clear(er), I hear sounds that are reminiscent of older Aphex tracks (like the "farting bass" in T69 Collapse that sounds similar to the beat in "On"). psst, It was a joke, albeit a lousy one, but still...
