Have you checked out Orbsessions vol.2 Ross? There's a few old skool ambienty moments on there I think you'd like, 'Shem' and 'Shem versions' in particular are quite FSOL-esque.
-
Orblivion was also good but not the same, not as deep and stonerfied more upbeat
That was the first orb album I got and I bought it mainly because of Toxygene. I remember using it as the soundtrack to Quake back in the day on my uber jerky 486 DX4 100, though I have no idea why as the two didn't really fit, ah to be young !

Odd, I don't remember my CD ending abruptly.. how long is your Slug Dub track?
Mine is 15:49, though it looks like the US version and the vinyl version is 17:03. Perhaps they thought us English sorts would get offended by the bird eating up the slugs (that entire bit has been removed)
I was about to buy the remastered version of the album but notice the version of the track is also 15:49 long...
-
It's a shame the full version of Slug Dub didn't make it to the CD version of the album (well the version I bought anyway), it seems to end so abruptly that way ....
But yeah it's a darn good'un !
-
I was gonna rename the thread to what I thought was the correct spelling and have just realised I've been incorrectly referring to Italo Disco as 'Italio' Disco for about 3 years now.
-
oh man if you grew up in the uk/ireland in the late 70s/early 80s you'll be in love with this from the first track
it's like hospital radio from another dimension
Yeah what the hell. The theme from Rainbow is from a proper song ?!
-
It really is a grower. I too thought its was OK but not great on the first few listens but a couple of months down the line it's probably my favourite Ae album. Probably.

RAFAEL ANTON IRISARRI - Reverie - http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=291346 / http://www.normanrecords.com/records/115243
Oh my God, it features the most incredible version of Arvo Part's Fur Alina on the B side. It's simply beautiful.
-
Yeah I've got one of your tracks (can't remember which one at the moment as I'm at work), if you have any more that'd be great !
-
Ok I'm starting to compile all of these fellows now ... if you've got any tracks that you haven't posted yet but could possibly make it to the 'best of' compilation then feel free to post them in the next few days. The compilation at the moment is looking quite taphead heavy as there are some phenomenal sounding bends he's posted, but I'd prefer to have a few more artists on there (modey did you say there are quite a lot you've made recently - or are you collating them for your own use - no worries if you are !)
-
thanks so amplifiers somehow improve sound quality and not just amplify i guess. i'll have to get one.
I've never got this either, are headphone amps like £300 speaker cables, like they're meant to be all fancy pants and make things sound brilliant but just make things louder ?
-
Yep, those and the bottom of the page here - http://yage.co.uk/digitalbubble2.html

Some of the quadrange stuff works perfectly for Wipeout Pure.
-
Some rom/save state combinations just don't break (a lot of the EA roms just reset and then play the first rom you loaded). Try a different combo it's bound to break sooner or later ...
-
Ah, well you've got to load the rom first and then the extra menu items to load and save states will appear. (you are using gens plus yeah ?)
-
File -> Load State
-
Hey that should so be the front cover !
-
Man that's pretty darn nice. This is gonna be one hell of a compilation !
-
3 more for today -
Golden axe into prince of persia.mp3
Shadow Beast 2 into Road Rash 2.mp3
Sonic level select into Chuck Rock 2.mp3
(sorry esquimaw I only have them as v0 mp3s, I deleted the original wavs - though obviously they're easy to rerecord)
-
Moved as to not derail the krYlon topic completely !
Here's the full method -
1. Download gens+ ( http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/genesis/gens_plus.html ). My version is 0.0.9.60 but hopefully .61 linked there onwards doesn't fix the (possible) bug that allows you do do this.
2. Download lots of roms (obviously I can't link them here, but a quick google should help you)
3. Make save states for some of the roms. I recommend going to at least the start of level 1 of the game when making the save as presumably it means more data should've loaded into ram
4. Load any rom, and select a save state from a diferent game.
5. Pray the IDM Overstep gods are on your side
I haven't yet worked out why some games completely bomb out and why some seem to work. I got quite lucky with the three mp3s I posted above - usually you get just 1 or two held fm notes ....
-
One last one before I go to bed as it's stupid o'clock - it's loading a save state of a sonic 2 beta into a mod of sonic 1. The 'retriggered' drums actually sound suprisingly autechre-y
Apologies for the noise at about 5:20, I was gonna edit it out but I'm sure you guys would rather hear it untouched....
-
I've actually just found out that you can do it even without corrupted saves. Just load a rom of one game and a save state of another, it's quite hit and miss whether a tune will play and not just glitch out instantly. The glitched sonic 2 music is just the first level (Emerald Hill ?)
-
goddam thats good, what megadrive emulator?
Just the standard (and now quite ol' skool ) Gensplus ( http://www.zophar.net/genesis/gens-plus-.html ).
-
And here's one I just recorded 15 minutes ago from loading Ecco Jr ... It's quite epic ! It reminds me of the tape loop experiments from the 50s. It gets stuck doing the sound at 8:30 until I restart the emulator.

IMO Vol.2 is much better than Vol.1, it's much more coherent as an album. However Vol.1 does include some quite nice old archive tracks
I've never really got Pomme Fritz, I know it got slated on release and I can kinda see why as it seems to meander all over the shop from start to end. Although I do enjoy the stupidity of the last track....
