Rec. Info:
OKM2mics -> Zoom H2n (at WAV 16/44) -> SDcard -> HD -> Audacity (edit/remaster) -> WAV 16/44 -> TLH8 -> FLAC -> DIME -> YOUR EARS AND MIND...
Recorded by yours truly in the blazing sun at 2 meters facing right speaker stack. No real chatters audible, but the main sound system had a few dropouts on the speaker stack where I was
taping from. So the guitar sound is a bit wavy, but bass and keys are very up in the mix. Maybe the australian outback heat was too much for european systems?
Well, even so, I think this sounds really very very good.Enjoy!

Alrighty, fellow Dimers, here's round # 11. And as we get on the closing meters of that marathon taping event, the later its get the "better" are the acts. Or what shall I say?
I already experienced a live show by the great MONKEY 3 at PNF Festival last November, where they had the time to spread out all their material, and it was sensationally fine.
This show is a bit shorter, but misses non of the exciting moments, which make the MONKEY 3 an amazing band combining the outer and inner spheres of spacerock music. What do you
expect from this? I tell you, what: Bubbling spacey synths and keyboards, pumping oscillating bass, thunderous drumming and on top of that the fiery wild but meldolic leadguitar.
Oh, and no vocals. But you won't miss that, as they create a musical universe of their own. If you jump on and get in, you'll sure have a nice journey. No music to clap or
sing along, but music that'll force your inner system to jump, and your mouth to get a real big fat smile on it. Enough said? Oh, forgot a thing. THEY'll be headlining the upcoming
UP IN SMOKE ROADTOUR #4 over Europe. I know I'll catch them midways. AS far as that, enjoy this, and - sorry to those nonsmokers - light up one on this! SB.
