I'd like to circle back around to Hidden Orchestra, a band someone suggested early in this thread. I've been really into them since then and have scooped up:

Archipelago
Live at Attenborough...

I only get those when I am using a VPN.

When their music first started hitting the airwaves, I thought "Wow! What perfect music!" Everything was so finely tuned, precisely timed, meticulously composed, and laboriously mixed. Now they sound...

Theremin

...and brass instruments when overused.

I've always said ZULE, like it rhymes with mule, or you'll. Straight up Z sound, not TS. But that's just me...

Most vocals. Too many prog bands feel an absolute need to sing, even though they don't have anything to say, but still say it anyway, with mostly bland, talent-less performances bordering on...

The player (Petgrave) who hit Adam Johnson with his skate was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter and has now been released on bail. I agree that it looked like his motion wasn't completely...

Sorry, my comment was not directed at you specifically. It was a general response triggered by many threads on this forum (and others) where, for example, someone says "I don't like Wobbler because...

I was introduced back in 2020 when I bought Nattfiolen, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I just bought Salighet a couple of days ago, and it renewed my interest. I really don't care if they if they sound,...

Tropical depression #10 is forming in the Gulf of Mexico, with a predicted track that takes it over N.C. Fortunately, it looks like it will hit Wed & Thur and be tapering down to a few showers on...

I'll be there with my wife, Shirley. Out of the 4 bands booked so far, we're looking forward to hearing tu:NER the most. We might swap beers with the other snobs if we can find an outstanding local...

I fell a little short of 20, but here's my list:

NIL - Novo Sub Sole

Ghost Rhythms -...

In response, David Gilmour is reputedly doing a remake of WYWH, but this time it's about Roger (not Syd), and the new title is "Wish You Weren't Here". And guess who the flaming dude on the cover is?...

There are plenty of threads over there that discuss this issue, and it's complicated. First of all, they have ratings, and they have rankings. Ratings are weighted....

Pink Floyd (DSOM) - Pittsburgh 1974
ELP - Boston 1978

Tangerine Dream - Cruise to the Edge 2014

I used this for bluetooth connections to my home stereo, and this one for my old car. Both were cheap and worked well. My new car has bluetooth, and my new sound bar does too, so I no longer use...

Big fan. It all started with Cosmology -- a fantastic album that I reviewed on PA. The track "Mechanical Universe", in particular, got me hooked to their musical ethos. A musical drug, they are.

Not entirely true about PDFs. Some PDFs are just images, but many are text-based and are searchable with CTRL-F. It depends on how it was created. If you have a text document (even containing images)...

Count me as one of the geezers. Having grown up in prog's glory years of the 70's, I found the prog wannabes of the 80's neo-prog movement to be utter drivel not worth a second listen. I hopped on...

I think the information is the same, but I actually liked the format of NRR better.

Sounds like the book "New Rock Record" by Terry Hounsome. It's a shame it hasn't been updated since the 80's.

Based on your post, I looked them up on Bandcamp, and I discovered that I had put their "Hainin" album in my wish list some time ago and completely forgot about it. My interest is renewed! So, thanks...

Drums and synth... The Swiss version of Zombi!

They remind me a bit of Korai Orom. (Sorry, don't know how to do umlauts on my keyboard).

Blueberry Wheat beers have been around for many years. I, too, was reluctant to try them, but when I did, I discovered that they don't taste like blueberries, but instead give just a hint of that...

I would add to "arturs" list:

7) Set an annual budget and stick to it.

This alone keeps me from over-purchasing. When I discover something I want, usually on Bandcamp, I add it to my wish...

Everything but 4).

Buying physical product IS the problem why people can't keep up with their purchases because it limits the situations in which you can listen to music. If your car doesn't have...

I actually enjoy Tunnels more so than Brand-X. I dunno why -- something about their groove just pushes all the right buttons for me. I briefly listened to PAKT (the original release) and I'm very...

I post reviews, but infrequently. I've only done 40 or so, since joining in 2018. Maybe I'll crank it up some day.

OMG! I didn't hear anyone mention "We'll let you know" from Starless and Bible Black. One of my favorite bass performances, which invariably causes me to bring out my air (bass) guitar. I'd love to...

Enigmatic Ocean is my favorite. Cosmic Messenger and Imaginary Voyage are tied for second. All the rest pale in comparison to those three.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' stadium plays Styx "Renegade" when they need to get the team (and crowd) pumped, and have been doing so for 20 years. Apparently, a local university study showed that they...

Interestingly, on their Facebook page, there's a photo of Glenn Howard playing the guitar with a bow.

One of the band members, Glenn Howard (vocals, guitars), started a Facebook page with interesting stories about the making of the album and some historic photos of the band. Check it out here:...

The recording quality certainly has that early 70's primitive quality.

Never heard of them, until your post. I checked out the album on YouTube, then bought the MP3 on Amazon for less than $4US. A great find! Thanks for pointing it out!

The ELP similarities are...

I just got a 4 pack of Samichlaus by Schloss Eggenberg - an Austrian dopplebock with 14% ABV. Here's a description:

Everyone recalls the amazing play that was the Immaculate Reception, but it was more than one great play... It was the defining moment which forever changed the landscape of football in Pittsburgh....

The Psychedelic Ensemble, "Tale of the Golden King", and "The Sunstone". Both are complete stories and you can't just jump into the middle and listen to one chapter.

I would initially avoid their early stuff (1985-1989) as the recordings sound like recordings on cassette tapes from their early festival days. I would also initially avoid their later stuff...

It was the first album released on the newly formed Virgin Records -- the label that became the outlet for many prog rock artists. It's success, back in the day, is what initially propelled Richard...

Winamp. They just released a new version.

I saw a message on PA that it was up for sale some time ago, but he was asking too much money, and that it is no longer up for sale. Can you provide other evidence that it is back on the block? Maybe...

I consider the song "Popcorn" by Gershon Kingsley to be the first synth-based pop song to get radio air time and make people aware of music synthesis. If any track deserves the title "Farcical...

spacefreak's list included some psychedelic ambient artists. If you're fans of Ozric Tentacles, you might find some of these interesting:

Psybient style:
SHPONGLE - modern psychedelic ambient...

spacefreak's list is a little daunting. I've waded through it, top to bottom, and came to the conclusion that most of it leans towards psychedelic, krautrock, garage, drone, and experimental. If you...

Here's a few samples from some recent purchases I made. The last one shares a lot of similarities with the Ozrics. (There are a bunch of Ozric clones out there. Let me know if you'd like more).

We're both right. The right one is on the front cover, the left one is on the back cover.

I always think of the male version (on the left) because it is the one that started my collection. My...

It was a humorous attempt to caution you against opening another bottle of beer if you were seeing double!

I collect cast iron figural bottle openers, mostly made in the '40s and '50s. Here's a couple of examples. The one on the left is similar to the one shown on the US version of Pink Floyd Relics...

Yes, that one is in my Bandcamp wish list. I'll wait for the full release before I commit to buying it.

Their old website (defunct now) ended in .RO (Romania)

This year I stopped at the Food Lion close to Storybook Farm, and discovered a Subway in the same shopping center, and it was open at 9 am on Sunday! Picked up a couple of 6" subs for the wife and I...

Anyone know about the status of food vendors? The Progday website says nothing, except that Starpoint will be there selling beer (unless that's a holdover from the last festival at Storybook).
