Title: Your Latest Music Purchase and How it Fares?
Post by: Hawke on January 28, 2003, 06:17:18 AM: I wonder where I got the idea for this thread... *just got here from CD*

So, the musical equivalent for the latest game purchase -thread rears its ugly head! I bet this has been done to death in OT, but I haven\'t been here for ages so I don\'t care, harhar! I\'m so evil I hurt myself, harhar! Last weekend just exploded in my face with awesome music related stuff flying my way like never before, so if nothing else, I\'m going to make you green with envy, hahahahahaha! Haha! Ha! Eh... or not.

Feast your eyes on this :

My new baby... I love her! She\'s kept me up until the early hours for several nights now. Finally, I can easily record my own ideas on a disk and not forget every single thing I\'ve come up with because of being too lazy to actually write anything down!

I also purchased a bunch of records.

Groooovy... it\'s just a shame it concentrates only on the music, I would\'ve liked if they had included all the wisecrack narration and stuff... but I\'ll just hook up my MD-recorded into my PS2 and make my own records for those. 7CDs of awesome music, I\'m not complaining.

One of the best games in recent history, and also an awesome soundtrack. Some pieces are almost intolerable, but the overall quality is higher than many might expect. Lots of groovy songs. But no One-Winged Angel? What up with that? Well... Shimomura\'s arrangement wasn\'t that awesome anyways.

Spirited Away was the best movie I\'ve seen in years, honestly. I went out to see it in the cinema 4 times, and now I can\'t wait for the DVD to come out. And now I\'ve got hold of the best movie soundtrack ever made. Bliss. Joe Hisaishi\'s become one of my favourite composers ever in record time. The soundtracks works well even without the movie playing in the foreground, which can\'t be said for many movie soundtracks (at least western ones). Everyone should own this record, you too.

Post by: project86 on January 28, 2003, 06:38:22 AM: Hey man! Long time no see. I had been given a couple CD’s for Christmas. One was the latest CD by Kutless. It ROCKS! I would have to say that it is the equivalent to TOOL but with a Christian theme. I don’t play any musical instruments any more so I can’t say I have gotten any new stuff like that lately.

Post by: nO-One on January 28, 2003, 06:48:28 AM: I recently bought Opeth\'s latest called Deliverance. Even though I had every song on Mp3 I felt this was worthy of purchase.

I\'m very much happy with the album, getting a lot of playtime.

Post by: Zavijava on January 28, 2003, 10:22:46 AM: Just got\'s me one of these:

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ampeg.com%2Fimages%2Fproducts%2Fba210spsmall.jpg&hash=4b1dc0f462e40db91ccb40a5f9885d9a91272c7f)
Ampeg BA 210sp, for those who care.

But it arrived damaged, so I should have a replacement relatively soon.

Still waiting for my freekin\' G&L bass to arrive, place the damn order in Sept.!

Purchased a pair of these 2 weeks ago:

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gradolabs.com%2Fproduct_images%2Fsr225.gif&hash=89663fa6f7500c1db26cde1bc7ecbd2f2e2dcc1c)

A little pricey, but worth every penny for their "uncoloured" response, truly amazing.

I haven\'t bought a CD in a few weeks, but my last purchase was the album "Caution" by "Hot Water Music", which has gotten quite comfortable in my CD player.

"The Division of Laura Lee" has got my attention, though I know very little about them thus far, so I\'ll check out their material this w/e.

I will finally get around to owning "Relationship of Command" by "At the Drive In", yeah I know, it\'s been out for a long time.

Currently, I am digesting a 4-disc James Brown Box set, in hopes that some of that funk/soul will rub-off on me.

And, when I\'m in the "right" state-of-mind, I have been experiencing the latest from "god speed! you black emperor".

Post by: counterstrike on January 29, 2003, 03:17:57 AM: th3 resident evil soundtrack is excellent, if you like that sort of thing. there is loads of stuff that probably is not in the film anyway and all the tracks are extended as well. not bad for a tenner

Post by: Silent D on January 29, 2003, 05:18:30 PM: I don\'t buy music anymore. Why waste your money when you can download them for free? :D

Recently, I\'ve been looking for a pedal for my bass, but it\'s kind of pointless now since I can\'t get it back until I improve my grades. :(

Post by: The Stapler on January 29, 2003, 05:25:18 PM: The last record I bought was Eve6 - Horroscope when it first came out 2-3(-4?) years ago.

Post by: Hawke on January 29, 2003, 10:57:55 PM: I pretty much can relate to you people who say buying music is for dummies when you can... go the EVIL way. *cough* Oh crap... *is really EVIL*

I don\'t buy many music CDs either, there\'s not much stuff worth my (or anyone elses) money out there nowadays. But still, there\'s something strangely appealing in owning some original game music records. And other pearls that few people know/care about.

I\'m expecting a Rurouni Kenshin OAV soundtrack to arrive to a local music shop now. Oh goodness.

And indeed, I got them babies a couple of nights ago.

I guess its the older one because Paul\'s cig is still there.

I could tell you what is says in small print.

"An E.M.I. recording. Thanks to George Martin, Geoff Emerick, and Phillip McDonald. Photographs by Iain Macmillan".

One of the best albums ever. Side two is beyond amazing(its like one long, extremely beautiful song) and Come Together is probably my favorite song of all time.

Beatles rule.

I downloaded this sucker (though I may buy it since it\'s so incredible) from a friend of mine and as a result downloaded the regular and X soundtracks as well. Just like their order from the first to XX, each one is progressively better with its heavy metal guitar and drums. It\'s truly an awesome soundtrack for a great fighting game.

You can get details on it and track listings here (http://www.gamemusic.com/dept/101/productdetail.asp?dept=101&cat=10033&itemid=10680&uid=8476200301314108).

Anyone know where i can purhase the WipeOut Soundtracks or even the one from that ghost in the shell game
Title: Your Latest Music Purchase and How it Fares?
Post by: Ryu on January 31, 2003, 03:52:41 PM: Wipeout XL (http://www.gamemusic.com/dept/101/productdetail.asp?dept=101&cat=1038&itemid=1242&uid=8476200301314108)

I have the Ghost in the Shell soundtrack from the game. It\'s alright, but definitely not the best soundtrack out there.

Post by: Living-In-Clip on January 31, 2003, 04:20:20 PM: The Beatles was good, but I prefer John Lennon\'s solo work . I was just never a big Paul fan - as I thought John\'s music had much more meaning and influence. It\'s all personal preference though.
