I'm going to try and make my comment without swerving too far off the list's mandated topics. ;) While I believe that the exploration of space is vital to continuing to understand man's place in the universe, I fear that this latest Mars announcement is more of a distraction than a purpose as far as agendas go. To Trevor's comment, if you think back to the space race in the 60's up until about the 80's, and how it influenced our scientific and technological growth, we would be much better off with a second space race, than yet another pointless war. Perhaps if more of our world leaders (or at least one in particular...) listened to Fax they might start to glean some of this cosmic wisdom? ;) But more to the point, I find David Reeves' Fax releases to make for some pretty cool deep space music. Maybe not quite for Mars itself, but certainly for the trip there. Which reminds me, the cover of "In Starless Space" (which is my favourite of the three) even features a spacecraft, and if I'm not much mistaken, that's a screen shot from the movie "2010". cheers, Christian.

I would think that learning how to take care of our own planet, and the people on it would be of far greater importance. And seeing as how we're nowhere close on that I think Mars can wait.

A stereotypical devotee? I'd say that there would probably be statistically significant biases of this type. It's like back when I was still in university (CompSci) and a 3rd year prof asked the class how many people smoked. 1-2% raised their hands and that was exactly what he had predicted based on what he knew of the demographic. (People who think that generalizations are always invalid are living in denial.) Someone would have to run a poll to find out what the FAX "type" is... be hard to come up with the questions though! So many possibilities! Also, regarding an earlier comment about FAX being mostly a male thing, I must add that both my previous and current (serious) girlfriends both enjoy FAX quite a lot, suprisingly enough. They don't dig the experimental or hard stuff, but there's plenty of stuff they find highly listenable. Maybe it's just that females aren't usually the type to get obsessed about hard to find music? > My guess is that our political views run across the spectrum, but I > would predict that nearly all of us max out our sound system and CD > collection to the extent we can afford.

Banco should not be underestimated, every album up to Magical Sounds is top-notch. Also, try Jarre's Zoolook and TD's Tyger (the newer rerelease) (Smile and London) on good systems. Lately I've been trying to buy up all of the Waveform label's back catalog. I swear they are a shocking suprise. Omnimotion's album is one of the best things I've heard in a while, and I buy a lot of music!!! Could easily be at home on FAX sublabel. And for driving, don't forget 808 State, who say that they specifically road test their songs for suitability in the car! ;-) Believe it or not, I also like some jazz/newage/fusion, especially Germany's Ralf Illenberger, guitarist extraordinaire. His releases on Narada are amazing (you should be able to find them cheap), as is Sedona. He'd give PK a run for his money guitar-wise.

Ah yes, I totally forgot to mention Jarre. Oxygene, Equinoxe, Zoolook, and Chronologie are all excellent driving albums, IMHO. And Banco (Toby Marks) is often underestimated, which is entirely unfortunate. Crank up Last Train To Lhasa, and you'll see why.

Any info on the above? Yes, the CDs were sold both as a set and as individual discs labeled Vol 1 and Vol 2. Nothing special about the individual releases vs. the double-disc set. > For the record, Jarre was the reason I started listening to electronic > music, right through to the ambient/idm/trance/etc today. It's all his > fault. I bought my first Jarre CD in 1992 when I was 14... By accident, I bought Oxygene. I was hooked. By 1994 I'd bought everything I could find on CD, including bootlegs, singles, the Swatches, pins, press releases, posters, t-shirts... :D Currently I have about 40 Jarre-related music releases alone. The other band that I'm nuts about, The Orb, has been even more of an influence on me. I've got nearly 100 Orb-related releases on CD, and about 40 more on vinyl. Not to mention the other various toys, pins, posters, shirts, concert tickets, and the like :) Just a little information about me: I am 25, classically trained on piano. I grew up listening to WQED FM in Pittsburgh, PA. At night on Saturdays they play(ed) Music From The Hearts Of Space, which got me interested in electronic music - mainly ambient artists like Steve Roach and Robert Rich. From there I discovered Vangelis, Jarre, Tangerine Dream, and other such artists from the 60s and 70s. A band called Gong, with Steve Hillage, got me interested in the "electronica" scene when Steve formed System 7 with his wife Miquette Giraudy. I also was introduced to Mike Oldfield about that time (this was early 90s, like 91 or 92). Since then, I've amassed a CD collection of 1,000+ discs, and a vinyl collection on the order of 300+ records, most all of which is electronic music of some sort. I've got about 120 or so FAX releases, and am still tracking down the early rare ones. I'm missing a lot from 92-94, which is of course the most expensive and the hardest to find.... *sigh* Anyway, I currently live in Madison, WI, with my S.O. Anyone in the area?
