Yeah i have heard this remix... its fucking great I love it... the original is shocking, i never knew that piece of crap could be made so good!

then again... m.i.k.e. remixed it... so it is self explanatory.

Yeah I got the CD single of Vengaboys - Kiss at the same time as Vengaboys - Uncle john from Jamaica... both for $1 each. Definitely worth it for the M.I.K.E. and Airscape remixes!

Below are some details regarding encoding quality of the audio files.

The very high quality "--alt-preset extreme" setting of lame was used to encode. Here's the log:

Encoding with constant-bit-rate 192Kbps is way out-dated... learn about the --alt-preset settings of the lame encoder for more optimal and higher quality encoding!

Read this page for the list of recommended lame encoder settings:
http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/index....t=ST&f=15&t=203

Bookmark it!

GET EASYLAME FROM HERE, IT HAS THE OPTIMAL PRESETS BUILT-IN:

I use the "extreme" option.

Respect goes out to the geeks who have developed the many technologies that give us endless enjoyment.
If it weren't for them, trance and the trance scene wouldn't exist, and we wouldn't be on here talking about this!

The most significant technological developments for us trance lovers would be:

Vinyl records & players
Audio mixers
Synthesisers
Digital audio
CDs & players
Computers including Hard disk drives, sound cards, CD readers & writers
Computer networking & Internet & HTTP & FTP
Compressed digital audio formats (e.g. MP3)
Internet File-sharing software
Audio production/editing software
Headphones
Portable audio players
Home Sound systems
Lasers
Loudspeakers
Amplifiers
Smoke machines
Intelligent lights/scanners

...etc!

Trance music and the trance scene is heavily dependent on technology!
Hooray for technology!
Hooray for the people who brought us the technology!

anyone ever played civilisation? i think there was an au ta which was into it (maybe webmeister).

does anyone else think Hyperdimension's list is a like a civ 3 tech tree. You could imagine the DJ Tiesto researcher popup with his funky shirt.

"We have mastered the secrets of Vinyl records & players. I suggest we now study the workings of Amplifiers (10 Turns)"

Instead of placing temples for happiness and culture, you could place night clubs.

ahahahaha! I can picture that somehow on the computer screen. I've always thought of computer gamers as hard-core geeks... I don't know how it is now but that's how it used to be I used to play games a little... I liked Warcraft & Warcraft 2.

Aren't we all geeks of varying degrees for being avid users of the Internet, including this message board?

Night clubs can still be "temples for happiness and culture"!

warcraft 2 was so fun, i loved the "cute" change from war1
so much easier to play
war3 was great too
but c&c i think ownz0red them all in its day

Posted by escee on Dec-11-2002 17:53:

Nuclear Launch Detected!

we've taken this thread off topic, and there isn't anything you can do about it, ok?

Posted by Hyperdimension on Dec-16-2002 11:13:

Did anyone download the tracks?

Do you guys like M.I.K.E.'s productions & remixes?
I think he did an excellent job with this remix.

Posted by webmeister on Dec-16-2002 11:29:

Yeah I downloaded .. some pretty decent sounds there
