I don't have a keyboard, the KORG I have is a type of digital recording device, it has 4 main tracks and is one of the smallest models they make.

I wish I had a keyboard tho... One day maybe you'll let me play yours? :smile:

Aren't they releasing a new cd soon?




Yes they are. It's called "Nothing Lasts" and will contain 20 tracks or around 70 minutes of music in total. Last Wednesday Simon Posford returned from his travels to Australia, Thailand and Japan. He and Dusk Digital claim to be accelerating the creation of "Nothing Lasts" cover because it is pretty much the only thing incomplete. I do hope they make the "Nothing Lasts" sleeve as impressive as the first two and release the album earlier as predicted (March/April). I am very interested in their new release. I'm really curious if they are able to go on without starting to reproduce themselves.

Here's what Twisted website says about Shpongle's new album:

Quote:

Shpongle is back, with a new album, 'Nothing Lasts' a reference to Terence Mckenna and one of their many influences, the imitable audio pioneers, Simon Posford & Raja Ram remind us not only the about the impermenance of life but also how to rewrite the ambient agenda with yet more spell binding music from their outer cosmos that is 'Shpongle'. With sonic waves in a sea of synths, battalions of brazilian batucada beats, flamenco solo's, piano solo's, vocal soarings from Hari Om and trancey dubs this really is more music from the otherworld. A place of undefinable and indescribable beauty where all cultures collide, genres are rode over roughshot, and nothing is outlawed. For those that know them these will be sentiments they recognise and welcome as further evidence of Shongle's reputation. To those that don't, welcome to a new universe one with it's own language and musical map, a place of beauty and impermenance.

so, you never criticize other music acts...ever? Never said, shit, Britney Spears is terrible.?

Quote:

yes there are many overrated artists out there but shpongle for one is not.




I guess I just dont get it then - I have given them sooo many chances. I just end up yawning and putting on something else.

The way some of you people talk about shpongle is like they are some sort of mystical experience. I dont get it - they sound generic and mediocre compared to other records and acts that I know.

This goes for other psytrance acts as well.
I just cant get past the cliches and boring boomboomboom beat and pompous talk surround the music.

oh well - that's my opinion. Ya'll have it heard it again and again - sphongle and psytrance sucks to my ears and numbs my mind.

I hope ya'll explore music - there's so much other great shit out there.

peaceout

Funny, I'm don't get how you don't get it.

I wouldn't consider myself an expert on electronic music especially, but I know quality shit when I hear it :smile:

I really like Boards of Canada, Autchre (sp?) and some other tracks I've heard from aforementioned groups, but Shpongle is just quality, quality shit in my opinion.  Very solid and well done.

Guess it just doesn't float your boat?

You have the .wav files or equivilant lossless media I'm assuming? heh :smile:

in face of hundreds of other electronic music artists,
shpongle are so overrated.
I guess people who are used to guitars and lyrics (i.e. shroomery hippies) are tripped out by shpongle
and think they are the greatest ever.
trust me, there's so much better electronic music out there.




This is all just a matter of personal opinion. We all have different tastes and no one person knows what's best. Just becuase you think Shpongle is inferior to other "electronic" music doesn't mean they are. It just means thats your opinion. I have listened to a couple of the artists you listed and I thought they completely sucked in comparisson to Shpongle. Does that means they really do suck. No, it just means that its my opinion.
Different strokes for different folks. :smile:

BTW I'm open to all types of music. I love anything I havn't heard and can blow my mind. This doesn't include anything popular like the shit on the radio.
If you have anymore music you think Shpongle lovers would like, list them and
i'll check them out. I'm always looking to expand my musical horizans. :thumbup:

Just let everything flow, just flow right to the center of everything. You gotta turn off your mind and relax, and then just float downstream...

they are boring, overproduced, and relatively not all that inventive in my opinion. they are not bad but certainly do not live up to the pretense that all you people create about them - oh, they are so mystical and divine. All I hear is mediocre ambience and the same out boring trance beat.

I dont get it. doesnt move me.
maybe I need to take lots and lots of drugs to appreciate them
after a lifetime of a steady diet of rock music. maybe then they'll sound novel.

so, britney spears doesnt suck, it is only my subjective opinion that she sucks? and whenever I mention her suckitude, I should be reminded by her fans that my opinion is merely subjective and therefore doesnt hold much stock; that all criticism is irrelevent? how is this not a method to dodge criticism?
