so, beneath is a recording from a performance i had at a local club yesterday. in this particular place there are randomly themed electronic gigs every thursday. yesterdays theme was "space". so i had like 2 weeks to bring something up to fill up my hour. as i discovered that the lounge had several amplifiers for their speakers (the club has a 4.2 sound system) i realised that instead of a simple beat oriented set i would rather want to make a surround performance which would be a journey to all of our 8 planets with 8 tracks inspired by the planets themselves and in this particular 4.2 surround. it's a pity this mp3 recording won't give oyu the experience of space that this set had in the venue when the sound was panning from speaker to speaker, but i hope that it might be a glimpse. if someone has a surround speaker system and sound card and has ANY knowledge on how to decode files so that they will play surround i can make that. i'm sorry the speaking is in polish - the voice itself gives a few informations about every planet with size etc. i would be really glad if someone could point me a good speech synthesizer that speaks english with a similar voice so i could make the set multicultural. thanks in advance. |

heard 4 minutes so far and its fucking brilliant, its the best thing i heard all year and i havent even gotten 10% into it. ill post more as it continues |

seems like you haven't heard a lot of music at all this year have you ? :> |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
only thing is i wish i knew which track was for which planet.. but regardless the production is absolutely insane, im playing it rather loud and the sense of space is amazing. |
||||||||

the planets are in the original order sun mercury venus earth mars jupiter saturn uranus neptune i was working on pluto but stopped after my friend told me that since a year it's no planet anymore.... sucks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's a pity that this is just stereo - for example sun and mercury the surround was just essential. |

great idea of combining astronomy and track. whole has unique feeling and great sound. 5-/6 |A- |

I will pick this up soon. It sounds like something I would really enjoy. : ) |

I think it needs an "Asteroid Belt" interlude. Actually, I haven't listened to this yet, but I'll be sure to download it once I've got my own computer back as it sounds like something I'd like. |
||||||||
|

|
|
if mars actually does get hit by an asteroid next month will you make anything for that? |
||||||||
|
|

downloading, will listen on train on the way to lubuskie ;] merry xmas |
||||||||

actually after i made neptune i was kinda glad that i didn't choose more planets because i would exceed one hour probably. |

Very very cool done sadist! Though, the Polish? voice scares me away a bit. Any chance of an English version? |
||||||||
|
|

all I ask is that you try your best. :) |

as i said in my initial post -if someone could point me some speech synthesizer that speaks english in a similar voice. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
My bad, I didn't read the last part of your message.. probably because I hit download. |
||||||||
|
|

i would be really glad if someone could point me one :> a japanese or french one would be nice to :P |

Hello Sadist. Any plans of playing in Opole/Wrocław or opening for Autechre in Katowice? :) |
||||||||
|

I really really like this set, especially Venus and Mars, but: ...promieniowanie radiowe pochodzące od pierścieni planety o niewiadomym pochodzeniu. ...is just plain wrong, as far as I know Polish. |
||||||||
|
|

that's ctrl + c, ctrl + v from wikipedia :> |

about that playing - not really - but i mean it doesn't work like mailing someone "hey can i play at your gig?". nobody from the autechre gig has contacted me so i guess i won't. i was meant to play before monolake in january in warsaw but the idea somehow died - dunno even if the gig is still planned. |

Just listening to this again, this is bloody brilliant Sadist!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I really like the concept of this, but i'm still downloading. But sadist, i might be going to poland for a few days in a month or so... Any tips? |
||||||||
|
|

Any particular region? |

The thing is, i'm going on interrail with one of my friends, and he's really into eastern europe, so i'm not going to be the one in charge of that. But i guess Warzaw or Krakow. I'm completely open, if anyone has some cool suggestions! |
||||||||

*Warsaw |

thanks, enjoying this. |

Out of two: Krakow, no doubt. People like to brag how overhyped it is, but the city centre is really beautiful. |
||||||||

On an actually related note - the music is fucking brilliant. If some of the harsher sound were toned down a bit, i could easily see it being used in a discovery type thing about the planets. But still... It's supposed to work for itself, and it does. It's pretty fucking good. I listened to it sober, and liked it, and i'm listening to it now, drunk as piss, and i'm LOVING IT!!! |

thank you guys ! cool that after such a long time this came up again :> i'm flattered. to make some fuzz and hype: the set your listening to is actually obsolete at the moment being. i'm actually working constantly (as far as school and live-giging allows me to) on this set and it is looking quite fantastic. i had a few sessions with a very good local guy working with visuals (kinetofon - you polish guys should know him) and we already had our first gig this set + his visuals. crowd loved it - we had a few parts in his visuals controlled by midi coming out of my pc so for example at a few breakdowns the visuals came in the same second. also i dropped the concept with the vocal. it seemed ok in the first edition but know i think that it might be a bit to cheesy. i'll have o rethink that again. thanks to the visuals the viewer is constantly getting information where in his journey he is because the visual guy had this idea to show the astronomical symbol of every planet at the beginning of each track and just the name of it. made sense. aside that - saturn and jupiter have been switched. both tracks have been majorely changed. earth is completely rebuild. i'm also thinking about adding a few tracks. definately the "asteroid prelude" that zephyr was suggesting and maybe some more. according to some scientists ceres, pluto, charon and 2003UB213 are also planets :> okay maybe i'll just stick with the asteroid belt cause otherwise they'll burn me. i'm also getting help with the surround mastering as i made the surround version on a few simple multimedia speakers and it must sound gruesome on a good hi-fi. i guess that maybe august we will be able to make a nic dvd with it. |

dirtypriest: definately krakow. my personal favourite town of poland with wroclaw close second. although i have to admit that tourism wise - definately krakow. i guess you will have an awful lot of fun there when it comes to nightlife etc. you'll have a really good time. as for sightseeing - of course the main market which is just totally awesome and one of the biggest in europe. the castle has to be seen the old town and my personal favourite - "kazimierz" the old jewish district. also - in krakow you are quite near zakopane and could drop by there. wonderful small town in mountains - if you're into a bit of trekkind :> nearby is also oswiecim or auschwitz in german - the biggest concentration camp of world war - it' a though thing to see and can really bring people down - i remember when we had an exchange with a german school and we took them there - i remember that there wasn't a single german not crying. though thing to see but a must. totally forgot ! wieliczka ! it' like fust a few kilometers from krakow - an old underearth salt mining station with the biggest cavern in the world and beautiful sculptures out of salt. if you're in krakow - you just have to see it. and if you are desperate - a bit away is czestochowa. or you know what - don't go there. |

dirtypriest: of other towns i could recommend torun and poznan and of course my home-town gdynia. but i guess you will rather stay in one place. but you could give torun a shout - wonderful place. when it comes to warsaw - okay it's the capital. it's big. but it's just awful. most of the cool things to see are things left by communism (palac kultury - the highest building in poland), some total mischiefs by the government like probably the shortest metro in europe or some desperate ideas to make the town look modern (zlote tarasy) when on the other side of the street you have the most awful looking, smelling and funcitoning train station in the world. i hate this town. |

Perfect minimalistic guide to south Poland. DP: I must add that you should avoid Zakopane during longer weekends and major holidays. Too many uninteresting people and the travel to and from the town takes incredibly long. |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok shit, this so fucking rocks, both the jupiter track and the whole set... i would really like some more if you have more of this |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
