    Maiia's live is good release if you look at it through the lens of downtempo/live funky band set 

    Alla tooks all good things from Hallucinogen - In Dub Live, Flooting Grooves, Ajja & Cosmosis - The Alien Jams Live etc.

    But if you want to relax and meditate at evening with this music - you couldn't do it because this is not psybient, it's rather funky experiments of rock/dub band than meditative submergence into sound design

    Alla respect) You made a great job and your project evolves in the right way)

    If I could I'll ask him about psychill music scene in 1994-1995

    some tracks from his album Implant, and tracks by Astralasia and Banco de Gaia - how does mr. Merv think, did they create the whole genre "psychedelic chillout" in 1994 in UK?

    or maybe genre was born earlier in psychedelic rock times, or maybe later in TIP and Twisted era?

    If you can ask this question in better English it will be great))

    nothing too exciting these past couple weeks

     

    not bad psy-prog/psy-tech EP released yesterday on Tetrameth's label Weapon Records 

    http://weaponrecords.com/album/mode-20-2

    intelligent sound, but as for me, I like more tribal and ethno sound

    and it's nice to see that Merkaba sometimes returns to that music from bass side in his label Merkaba Music

    it's winter in Moscow, and I've got deep-psy-music mood))

    Maybe you're just getting burned out and need a break? I've heard that spending a few days in total darkness at a darkness meditation retreat can work wonders.

     

    Off topic: I think it's common to get that "heard it all before" feeling when you become experienced in a genre. I've had it myself once, thank god it didn't last too long. The beauty of our music can help you overcome the familiarity, unless you want something monumental to keep your interest.

     

    Yes, I think my problem is that I want something monumental (like "Kattoo - Megrim" in IDM genre for example)

    But nevermind, you do a great job guys. Dub, ambient, downtempo - is the best music for intelligent people

    This is probably the biggest reason some might say psychill is dead. I for one would prefer to see psybass go into its own direction and separate from psychill.

     

    I agree with you

    and the second reason is that a lot of classic psychic record labels are not working or releasing other style of music now

    so it's very hard to find new talanted musicians for even djs and much harder to simple listeners

    I find the best way for me

    before mixing I change levels of every track in sony soundforge

    then i mix them in tracktor (with gain and headroom about -3db as Gagarin said)

    and after that I normalize mix again in sony soundforge

     

    by the way you can use izotope ozone in soundforge as plugin

     

    and you need to know, that not only db levels are show the volume level, but RMS levels too (it's something like a "power of sound")

    take the tool Statistics in soundforge, after analyzing you will see the minimum and maximum RMS levels for left and right channels

    I try to make it about -0.10 db RMS

    and that's question about compression

    you can change compression by Sony Express FX Dynamics or Sony Graphic Dynamics

     

    but as for me I don't change compression, you know there are a millions of ugly mixes, djs don't care about even distortion because of +2db and red-zone

    so don't blow you mind because of some difference in 0.010 db of the tracks)

    first of all is idea and tracklist
