  1. the new films were crud. star trek shouldn't be an action block buster. it can have some action but usually it is drawn out and heavily strategic, political and interesting. there was no interesting dialogue, no discovery, no real drama or decent concepts just wham thud crash whoosh. meh

    Bola

    yeah i agree, i'd love a new lp
  3. i perceive them as a mixture between the tv show horders and doomsday preppers :) joking as a matter of fact the US was the last place I wanted to travel to but I was lured by burning man a few years back so stopped off in a few cities on my way. i thought since we were brought up on US entertainment I had a grasp of the country but honestly i was amazed at the beauty of the country and how welcoming and open people were. even more so in canada. it is hard to be supportive of the US when you are outside as all you hear about is edward snowden expose, wikileaks expose, gfc, overhyped nationalism, fox news, pharmaceutical companies and other large corporations with too much power, mass shootings, no gun control, war on tv. it just looks like too much power in the wrong hands. it is hard to take a high stance coming from australia as we are in the shadow and always there to help in any diabolical plot just so earn some tickets and our current government is probably worse
  4. almost finished nausicaa. so glad this was recommended - thanks! just picked up incal, before the incal and hoping for a final incal preorder for xmas :) hoping more moebius works get re-released in english.
  5. I agree, loved it. It is an amazing set. I loved it. The world Nehei created was enthralling. Shame it isn't explored any further he could have gone a lot further with the colonies and characters briefly mentioned in the 10 books (11 if you include noise).
  6. i have the cms50. i love them. exceptional clarity in comparison, not boomy like dynaudio bm5s and easy to listen to not grating like some (adam a4). some friends who do more serious mixing bought subs with their cms60s but i haven't found it necessary. i have a small rooms so i don't see the point of having a sub. i have thought about buying a second pair
  7. Are you luka magnotta? nah - luka isn't my real first name, close by not the same. i'm all for a standard deviation from the truth when it comes to internet identity
  8. my bags were full of records on my way home (and toys) :) cant wait to go back again
  9. just stay in town friedrichshain / Kreutzberg / prenzlauer berg do some of the graffiti tours, check out some war stuff and check out a LOT of music drink lots of cheap beer :)
  10. hey guys i made a map of the synth shops in tokyo click for full map and some of the record shops
  11. check out the alesis wedge - sounds great. i have a few hardware reverbs (dp4, lexicon pcm70) and it is still a goto box.
  12. i have both stand alone complex anime series - does the manga go deeper?
  13. Ahh wow I didn't realise the manga went deeper. I just thought it was a print version of the anime. Thanks for the tip
  14. cool just found this thread. in that last couple of years particularly after a few visits to japan I started a new hobby - reading manga :) my wife isn't that excited about it as they are filling up the book shelves. not hugely into US comics - the detective story / super hero story isn't my cup of tea with some exceptions (loved judge dredd in 2000ad when i was growing up). sci-fi manga is my cup of tea and started to collect moebius when a good deal pops up. recently finished akira, blame!, ghost in the shell series. started reading biomega but it was a bit zany for me. I absolutely loved akira / blame & g.i.t.s. I think they tie into current themes of distrust of authorities, technology beyond the grasp of the majority, post apocalypse society. it all touches a nerve and you have to love the graphic content in these series - truly amazing. i have a spare set of blame! minus 6, and biomega 1-3 if anyone is looking (not sure if this okay to mention in a thread post :/ happy to trade ) looking to read more classics and move into different genres - think i might tackle lone wolf and cub next
  15. gold lp arrived in aus - love it
  16. Yes we once had a delivery (containing an alesis midiverb in a mail bag) thrown over a brick fence to our front door. I was too scared to complain as I was worried what he would do to my records / studio deliveries in the future. Nightmare but have since moved. Luckily at our new house we no longer have this problem - CS3 vinyl arrived yesterday - delivered with care :) Love it
