It was very worthwhile IMO. I really enjoyed reading it, thanks!

Yep, the posts are a good read. Accelerator had a massive impact on me when I first heard it in late 92, so I find reading about the background quite fascinating all these years later. Also really looking forward to the Amorphous and Lifeforms releases, and more nuggets of info I never knew. Thanks ...

I've never listened to AST before, so this was new to me. Listening to the Galaxy remix is amazing when thinking about how much later stuff appears scattered through it. Thanks for posting, was great to listen and have my ears pricked throughout.

It’s an odd choice, especially given the previous RSD vinyl reissue.

It's an interesting topic. People say never meet your heroes, and there's a lot of truth in that. I sometimes bemoan the internet age, where people are closer to the artists they admire or follow and have a ton of information on them at their fingertips. It's sad in a way that the mystique is remove...

Yes, thanks for uploading, I missed this. It’s a really good track list. I’m looking forward to listening while working tomorrow.

And yeah, there are quite a few snippets in the between-track environments (and some overlaid on the tracks themselves) that appeared in the '90s. Thanks, I thought it was the case. I really like that aspect as it makes the new seem already familiar. I listened to it yesterday while working, and ag...

I got hold of the picture disc this week, loving it. But there are so many pieces/snippets that I'm sure I've heard before, maybe in the original Kiss transmissions. It could just be the segways between tracks. Has anyone done a breakdown of the tracks at all?

Interesting, I’m not on Facebook, was there any surrounding text or explanation? I do love cassette as a medium.

Ok, duurrr, you wanted the rave atlas mix, apologies for the incorrect link above. Here’s the rave atlas mix on soundcloud. It’s also on Spotify under rave atlas podcast list.

Cascade 2020 - now I’m excited! That’s great news.

Loving this mix, you're spot on, the track transitions are superb, very creative and seamless, lots of nice loops. Thanks for sharing.

This is a great mix, really pleased to have the recent Mixlr, and this one, they are so good and stop me wearing out kiss 5 & 6.

Probably, no definitely is the most important album in my life, I remember hearing it for the first time in 94, expecting Accelerator pt II, and was just floored by its beauty, scale and in some parts scariness. Took me a while to get my head around, but once I did....well...the rest is history. I w...
