mandan
04.29.14 | This is hard, both are awesome. Need time for this one. |
zakalwe
04.29.14 | Out of these two I'm going to have to stick with Yonin.
The sloth takes you on a journey man.

menawati
04.29.14 | oh i cant remember really but sweet smoke, maneige and dysrhythmia are some of the better ones (egonon too obviously) |
menawati
04.29.14 | slightly prefer los jaivas out of those two |
Jethro42
04.29.14 | #1. Though I love the song Ishoku-Sokuhatsu, it was not enough. I prefer the exotic (sometimes too much exotic) and the more polished Los Jaivas comparatively to the too raw Yonin Bayashi which sounds too much like Santana at some place. |
mandan
04.29.14 | In no particular order:
Los Jaivas
Yonin
Sweet Smoke
Pallas
Maneige |
menawati
04.29.14 | can sell you my LP of 'The Sentinel' for 100 quid danny, it's signed (woweee) |

04.29.14 | too tough 4 my blood |
Friday13th
04.29.14 | Los Jaivas
Univers Zero
Khan
Yonin Bayashi
Maneige |
mandan
04.29.14 | @Jokine: I'm plugged.
@mena: nice, those should be hard to get. |
Jethro42
04.29.14 | @danny;
Try Pallas - The Dreams of Men. Still better than Sentinel. More symphonic. |
menawati
04.29.14 | for real worth about as much as a plastic fork, gotta remember we are a tiny weird geeky minority that listens to this stuff haha |
mandan
04.29.14 | @Jethro: might try it sometime. @Jokine: just left plug man, I gotta eat. |
Onirium
04.29.14 | I vote for Yonin Bayashi, but Los Jaivas was very solid too
My top 5 would be something like:
Maneige
Egonon
Yonin Bayashi
Los Jaivas
Univers Zero |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.29.14 | I'll go with Los Jaivas, they have a more fresh sound. The sloth rules fucking hard though, one of the best albums I've discovered in the laa months |
menawati
04.29.14 | Maybe we can do this once a month with just one list of suggestions we all vote on ? Widen the range to psychedelic, prog metal and jazz-fusion too ?
Just a thought. |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.29.14 | Even though I think it would rule, and I would participate, probably very few of us will stay tuned to those lists, and the part of the community that isn't interested on them will get tired of them just like "radiohead ranked lists |
zakalwe
04.29.14 | True but they can get fucked |
menawati
04.29.14 | well it isnt like 'radiohead ranked' it's all stuff with low amount of votes and not well known different ones every time, but yes i see your point people lose interest fast |
zakalwe
04.29.14 | This really is a music website |
Friday13th
04.29.14 | It's worth a try, menawati, though I suggest focusing on one of those. I would really enjoy doing just psychedelic or just jazz fusion. If there's one thing I've learned from this is when it strayed too far from the "classic prog" sound we got lukewarm responses (i.e. The Odious). I'd focus on one so that only fans of the genre are onboard. |
menawati
04.29.14 | yes probably best to keep it focused, psych would be a good one we might get a good mix of new and old |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.30.14 | I really want some new psychedelic digs, already have a few candidates |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.30.14 | Zak, you're the one that deserves to review the sloth, the album needs a review |
Onirium
04.30.14 | Yeah but if we do another contest like this, could you please put the minimal rating number to 40 or 50. Because if we're only 10 users to participate actively (that's pretty much how many we are here I think), I think it could be ok. It's also partly because I want to rec you guys a life-changing psych album that has 34 ratings, but yeah |

mandan
04.30.14 | Should be sweet.
Giving Yonin another listen. If I 5 it, I'll have to jam Los Jaivas as well to vote. If it stays at a 4.5, Los Jaivas will get it. Let's see how this goes. |
mandan
04.30.14 | Actually, the vote is tied 3-3, so I'm the tie-breaker. Sweet. |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.30.14 | Friday, Jethro, mena and I voted for Los Jaivas lol |
mandan
04.30.14 | Yeah, I miscounted, it's actually a 4-3 vote. Either way, my vote is crucial. |
zakalwe
04.30.14 | A proper nail biting finish! |
mandan
04.30.14 | Both rule hard, but after jamming Yonin, it just didn't feel like a 5 for me (still a hard 4.5 though). Since I have Los Jaivas 5'd, my vote goes to the Peruvian Ruins, aka Los Jaivas - Alturas de Machu Picchu.
Sorry zak. Love ya bro. |
zakalwe
04.30.14 | It's taken on the chin dude.
A deserved winner of a cracking contest. |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.30.14 | Oh, cool danny, since Los Jaivas are chilean, I assumed that most people here would think Machu Picchu is in Chile |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.30.14 | zak you deserve a lot of love, Yonin is a new fav on my itunes library |
zakalwe
04.30.14 | And that is what is all about dude. I may do that review. |
SCREAM!
04.30.14 | so much brotherly prog love goin on here almost brings a tear to your eye :,) |
Friday13th
04.30.14 | It's a thing of beauty. Love ya all! Thanks for making this work. |
