Amazing collection!

I agree, I also do most of my music listening when sitting behind a computer. But I still love vinyl the most

Earth - Like Gold And Faceted Earth 2: Special Low Frequency Version (1993) Late night droning. This track is also the first thing I hear each day. I configured it in my alarm clock, a modified version that very slowly fades in by linearly increasing the volume level from absolute silence to full v...

I received the cd today! :D What an amazing album. After having listened to it twice in a row from start to finish, I have only had the tip of the tip of the iceberg. So dense, layered and detailed and yet retaining fantastic sound quality. Now, a short break to make a big mug of coffee, and then ba...

This is going to be so awesome!!!!!!!

Of the samples I've heard, I think so far I like the opening track "The Wheel of Life" the most. So peaceful.
The bass drone in "Supercontinents" is nicely done.
cannot wait

Wonderful, I can't wait to hear the full album!

I only hope the chirping birds are part of the "F-S-O-L digital" voiceover.

I can't wait to hear Environments 4!!!

Cool, I can't wait for more news/speculation and hopefully an official release date!

I believe children/teenagers can hear well up to 21-22 kHz. The sampling frequency of a cd is 44.1 kHz, so theoretically the highest possible audible frequency is half of that, according to the Shannon criterion: 22.05 kHz. The real issue is whether or not the used equipment can handle frequencies t...

As of yet, I still have never bought a digital copy of any music online. When I like music, and want to buy it, I want the real thing that I can hold in my hands and put in/on the player, not just 1's and 0's stored digitally on a hard drive. I guess I'm just old-fashioned ;-) Got really pissed off ...

Orbital - Halcyon + On + On Orbital 2 (Brown Album) (1993) Lovely tune, timeless classic. I first heard this in that Hackers movie many years ago and immediately fell in love with. Still not sure whether or not I'll go see them in Amsterdam next April, as I'm not familiar with most of their recent ...

The Orb is great, but doesn't stand a chance against FSOL in my opinion. FSOL win because they didn't go through a phase of pretending they were rastafarians despite being fat bald white middle aged Englishmen, unlike a certain Mr. Patterson. :mrgreen: If you're referring to "The Dream", t...

I think the white edition was a double LP, probably to make up for the issues on the black one. Yep, it is. Way better to have it split on two discs, even at 33 rpm. And my copy looks and sounds near mint, apart from one of the velcro fasteners that tore a piece of the surface paper from the cover ...

This one was a real grower for me, took quite a while for me to understand this album. I liked the Far Out... video and that kept returning me to this album, and eventually I ended up loving it. Of course I also have the black and white versions, and prefer the black one. Why? An End Of Sorts... 'nu...

It's good, but I can't say I really like it as much as the last album(s). I don't think this counts as a "new full-length album" anyway. Pretty cool what they did with the packaging for those who pre-ordered it!

Where did that E5 image come from...?
Would be nice to have an official update directly from B and/or G.
Not trying to sound like a pessimist and doubt the authenticity of that image, but I don't want to get my hopes up too much is all.
Let's have E4 first...
