The whole piece is available for download in six pieces at http://cec.concordia.ca/Radio/Long/Meloche.html. However, they are in RM format, so you need the "Streambox ripper", available on several shareware download sites to rip them and convert to a WAV or MP3. Then glue them together, e.g. in Audacity (freeware editor) and burn them. This way, I burned me a CD with three versions: 2h, 3h, 6h.

Hey, is Ramin on the forthcoming SOL release the same guy who did Sad World stuff with the good Doctor? What do others think of the new Spyra album, particularly the track "Bath"? Cheers ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2003 11:08:20 -0000 From: Richard Hughes Subject: RE: (fax) Sub Label people Yes it's Ramin Naghachian one and the same (see also http://www.tursa.franken.de/Ramin_discog.html) According to the Fax press release the SOL album is more in the trance vein. New Spyra album = definitely a 7.5. Bath is an interesting track, verging on the abstract but I quite like it. Same goes for the tempo changes on "Entropy is Just.....a Seven Letter Word" (especially in the first part), although after a while you tend to take them for granted. The samples on the first track ('this computer sucks') reminded me of something you might find on an Atom Heart RI album. Overall recommended I'd say.. - -----Original Message----- From: Paul Milligan [mailto:paulmilligan@georgiadesign.com] Sent: 11 February 2003 11:52 To: faxlist@2350.org Subject: (fax) Sub Label people A couple of questions for you Fax folk ...

I was careful in my review not to comment upon whether I enjoyed this track more than your average Spyra (because I wasn't sure I did!) but having heard it now half a dozen times I *do* like it and quite a lot. Very 'out of character' for the artist of course. The other track I really dig is the other, fairly untypical Spyra, Three ........ In An Artificial Landscape. It's the sort of more syrupy ambient I don't mind listening to. That said (and I know I have said this before!) I still think his best work is off-label, namely Future Of The Past. I definitely think Spyra's solo stuff is stronger than the collabs (VV) with Namlook. A pairing I really can't enthuse about. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2003 09:32:24 -0500 From: David Beardsley Subject: Re: (fax) mp3cd - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Agust A J" > version... and mp3cd sounds like an ideal way to do it, and/or maybe > dvd-audio (though maybe not as many people have access to playing those...)

They're quite popular these days. actually, that too... sorta slipped my mind (maybe something to do with the problem I'm having at the moment with my pc :) on a dvd-rom, they could even be put up as one big .wav file, in top quality (as a side note, thanks to the ppl who pointed out that site with the RDotUM .rm's on, though leeching those & converting to mp3 doesn't sound too appetizing... double quality loss) - --- Agust "nemesis1" - aaj@centrum.is - ICQ: 1290264 - http://nem1.cjb.net free your :) [tm] ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2003 12:23:16 EST From: RLynn9@aol.com Subject: Re: (fax) mp3cd In a message dated 2/10/03 12:08:46 PM Central Standard Time, aaj@centrum.is writes: << and pw39 sultan - osman funny thing is, I had forgotten I had a copy of sultan already ( >> must not have left much of an impression on you eh?
