Right, I need something new to listen to. I've been browsing the new releases on the iTunes store, but can't find what I'm looking for. I really want something in the same vein as Radiohead's Kid A/Amnesiac era. Any suggestions?

Just had a quick listen on iTunes and it sounds pretty good. Not what I would normally listen to and I think it will take a bit of getting used to, but having said that I hated Radiohead when I first heard them. The albums I keep coming back to years later are always the ones that took a while to grow on me.

I've just ordered the album from Amazon so I'll let you know what I think. Thanks for the suggestion! Maybe one day I'll love it as much as Kid A :-) Everything In Its Right Place still does something to my brain which causes me to collapse in a stupor as soon as I hear those opening 4 notes from the Rhodes...

@CF
Not sure about Ghetto Plotz, but Bucovina Club is fking awesome :lol: Deffo on my next order from Amazon.

@Turambar
Just had a listen to Deadwing on iTunes and it's a bit /too/ rocky. However, I had a listen to Porcupine Tree's "Fear Of A Blank Planet" and it is beautiful - definitely going to buy it. Thanks for the recommendation.

Hi Oliver. Thanks for the advice! Interesting you mention about the tools being important - because this morning I had an email from Propellerhead Software letting me know I have been accepted as a beta tester for Reason 4 :-D I can't say too much about it due to the NDA, but hopefully I'll be inspired by some of the new toys :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D

Well it has just happened. I've been playing with the new arpeggiator in Reason 4, and I have been hit by a flash of inspiration. All it is is an arpegiattor run, but it forms the basis for a whole track which I can currently hear in my head. I feel so happy I don't know what to do with myself. This is the first new music I have written in over 2 years! :-D

I can't currently save anything since saving and export is disabled in the beta version of Reason 4, but I plan to record the audio on to another machine and then re-import it as a sample in to Reason 3 (full version) so I can write the rest of the track.
