I am starting to really like this. When on headphones the
sound really moves around your head and the sounds are
really cool toboot.

Much over looked this one. It aint filler you know.

Gwarek 2 is a peer into mr d. james' real listening habits
and what he likes.

It is an audio conglomerate, basically loads of sounds
thrown in to make it. I love it.

ok let me enlighten you i own nearly everything by richard
james, aka afx twin, i just dont remember the titles of
tracks, i thought drugs was okay if a a bit too much satied
on the influences,his early days with donkey rhubarb etc.
were fun, pac man song was good, i care because u do
excellent, ambient works 2 ace, basically the guy is cool
but lets not boost his ego too much, is it true that he has
a bird and she is expecting, is it going to be the second
coming?

his work does cover some scary evil sounding stuff but he
says when he writes it he is always smiling, he doesnt write
it to freak us out he does it to show us that he is
clever!!!!

Eagle in your Mind, by Boc, has a similar affect for me

whats the point with the headphones... i mean.. wouldnt it
be better to listen to music right from the loud speakers...
at top volume?

headphones give you a 3 dimensional spacial sound world ,
thhey inject music straight into your brain , panning and
other effects are transformed into full blown whiooshes

Some headphones have better sound definition, especially if
you can afford great speakers, and it for complex tracks, it
allows you to completely focus so as to hear things you
would normally not.

I prefer listining with headphones when alone.

headphones shut out everything but the music...

cleaner sound, too (at least for me)
no slight reverb from ur room or anything like that...

Gwarek 2 scares me - and draws me in at the same time -
kinda like doin huge gaps on my bmx - cool track - amazing
imagery and sound texture

Yeah, it turns sound into imagery for me. I can see the
track.

imagery and music are the same, the images you see are your
brains way of turning music into pictures, just like when
you were a kid, word and pictures get it???

its like experiencing the track - a mood and surrounding -
it brings you in and wont let you go until you've made sweet
love to it

I like the sound of that; making sweet love to music.
