1000% best advice :up
Hey Rich! Thanks as always for sharing :) Nice track, lovely video, definitely touches of Genesis and the subject matter also reminds me of Kevin Gilbert's Shaming of the True :up
What I've been doing is just refreshing the page; the new performances simply appear in the feed at that point :up
Just kicked off this afternoon on the US East coast...listening/watching a terrific kickoff set from Kairon; IRSE:

Lots more fun over the next few days including...
Yeah...it wasn't the end of the world if I just listened to the CDs (which I did). And I think I bypassed their ever-so-fancy copy protection simply by holding down shift while the disc loaded into...
I do like 65daysofstatic, and I do like that soundtrack.
Jóhann Jóhannsson's work is generally either "solid" or "fantastic," although my personal favorites are "Arrival," "Last and First Men,"...
A well produced VHS tape looked better than some of the early hackjob blu rays (anyone watch the first Batman blu ray, for example). The medium doesn't automatically guarantee better.
I own the...
Niiiice!
Since you trashed him publicly, perhaps you can apologize publicly about what should have been a private matter.
Ah, I found it: a year or two ago "We Persuade Ourselves" was planned to be released as a single from an upcoming album called "Listening Beyond the Head Chakra." I'm wondering if that is still a...
I just came across this recently and really loved it:

So yes, this overall documentary about these pioneers sounds fabulous :up
I remember ordering from LE when it was a mail order catalog. Specifically, filling in my alternate selections in the event that titles disappeared before my order arrived/was processed.
LE isn't...
Negativity would be claiming the idea, or the person who provided the idea, is stupid. Haven't seen any such comments. What I do see are a number of posts for or against the idea, or expressing...
^^ May I ask, since you are somewhat close to the source on this...is "We Persuade" still essentially a single, and a full album is due at some point down the road?
I know FSOL were wonderful back...
I'm in the "support whatever choice they make" camp, but I suppose I'll qualify it since it's all hypothetical at this point anyway:
Would I support another all-virtual fest, should...
I'm happy to hear about the streaming. Been talking up this lovely little nugget for a while now but it's damned hard to find places to stream it online. Hoping I can send a few additional happy...
Swapping out mellotron tapes in a studio? I think that's funny as hell :lol
We mess with each other's instruments in the band. Nothing destructive or permanent...but yeah.
Yep...those are usually when I do my deep dives into the manuals. I also haunt YouTube heavily as just about any feature that might intrigue me...sure enough, someone made a video about it :)
Ha ha...I'm a total manual reader kind of person, although I definitely am "random access" with my manuals as opposed to cover-to-cover :)
IMHO
Lots still can happen in the next few months. Assuming restrictions and mandates are relaxed regarding the venue and surrounding area, that's a big plus. Audience willingness to attend...
Apologies in advance, this may have been shared previously and I'm simply too lazy to look back through all the posts ;)
Bought this blu ray over the weekend and it's a lovely documentary about...
I did, actually. And it was really, really well done. Kudos and thanks for sharing :up
RIP, space lady.
This was the album that got me on the Marillion bandwagon back in the mid 90's.
Oh yeah, it's a toss up between those two for me. And "Mladic" is easily one of my personal favorite GY!BE tracks overall :up
I think this one might be their strongest overall since reforming.
Pretty solid haul this morning, record-breaking number of emails from BC in the inbox...
Dahliad - The Feast Of Fools
Timothy Garrett - Lost Potential
loscil - Clara
James McAlister -...
Oh nice!! I will definitely check out :up
LOVE IT :lol :lol :lol
I'm 100% certain this is April Fool's, and 110% certain I'm deeply disappointed that it's April Fool's :lol
At the core it's basically a cutesy bundle of a pair of Moog's Eurorack gadgets plus trinkets and accessories. As a fairly low-cost entry point to Eurorack, it's a pretty awesome deal actually. You...
Gateway Modular from Moog :) IMHO this is a pretty clever idea.

I enjoy the music a bit more than you but agree 100% on the drums.
Someone deepfaked Andy Latimer onto Christian Vander :O
:O
Oh well...all the cool people are doing it so....

Just a wild stab in the dark ;) :lol
This has been on my list for a while now, might finally spring this Friday: https://unsoundfestival.bandcamp.com/album/v-a-intermission
I attended a few Unsound festivals in NYC years back (saw...
Ooooo, Maja Ratkje. Good stuff. I have a couple of hers.
Listening to this one now: https://mora-tau.bandcamp.com/album/swirl
And this one might be of interest to Mike (neuroticdog), walt...
Re: BS...it wasn't about who was/wasn't selling Circa. At least, that wasn't the proverbial straw on that camel's back. It was a post from a vendor questioning why BS was using the main forum as a...
^^ no joke, easily one of my favorites from TB as well. I suspect Hues helped with the music on this one as well (a few bits remind me more of Wang Chung than Genesis, like the guitar line in the...
I like Strictly Inc for what it is (i.e. late-era Genesis offshoot).
Having a single vocalist instead of a mix of singers lends the album more of a cohesive identity compared to say Still or...
Very happy to hear news of the man/myth/legend :up :up :up
You mean condescending like calling Present "music you would commit suicide over so you don't have to listen to again?"
Peaches, Richmond VA. Late 1991 or early 1992, can't remember now. Bought Tangerine Dream's "Rockoon" which had apparently just been released and was completely unknown to me. Didn't actually own...
While I don't think his last album is my favorite (I've always probably favored Man about a Horse most of all), I remember chatting with Steve F. about "Life Of" ahead of time and his remarking about...
Yeah...broke this out for the first time in a while shortly after he passed. What an intense, wild ride :up
:lol:lol:lol
HOLY COW did I get major Deus Ex Machina vibes on the feat. Esserelà track. Kept half expecting to hear Alberto start belting out a vocal line at any second.
Back to be a gloaty bastard with yet another Osmose preview video. This feature....HOLY crap, so potentially cool:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUh9nkDorZk
I have a Voyager so....never thought to compare those two ;)
No idea...I actually find myself a little bugged with some of the remastering on the CD (the organ "solo" on the Set the Controls feels overly harsh to me...it was always a highlight so it's a bit...
Some cool picks in there, although I personally would have included any of the Modal offerings too :up

Sadly no...there was a printing issue and some of the blu ray discs began to bubble and possibly have playback issues.
Neat...never seen thisquietarmy live, that would be pretty fun :up
We did! They were pretty darn cool, if memory serves (feels like a lifetime ago). Nun Gun is half of Algiers, doing a slightly more noir-ish electronic sound that is still definitely Algiers DNA.
The amusing thing is, in Googling to find an appropriately-snarky comeback, I discovered Algiers IS a reference from Star Trek. Apparently the name of a ship or something. So dammit...that IS...
So far

Nun Gun - Mondo Decay
Sumatran Black - A Taxonomy of Grief
