MORE FESTIVAAALLLS
Any date listed?
June 11th.
FFFFFF
gotta work that day in the United States of America.
Will this gig at their Hometown be more intense than the much promoted SW4 festival?
It's not really thier hometown so I doubt they will be treated like local lads done good. It's just where they met. Both are originally from London.

Thanks for this. I can never keep track of DST and BST correctly.
Is someone recording?
I should be up, but on the off chance I fall asleep...
Gonna try.
We're totally raiding the IRC chat for this too.
And I have recording working on my old laptop once again, so I will have a file ready for all.
Awesome.
I'll set an alarm. Hit me up with a link to chat when it gets going.
It's the chat link uup on the top bar below the logo on this site, the one that no one uses!
hey Enjoyed wake up
http://forum.thechembase.com/index.php?action=chat
Can't get back into chat for some reason.
It was a pleasure though.
And thanks for waking me up. That somehow totally worked!
No problemo.
Link to download the Chems portion of the show here. (https://www.mediafire.com/?66tfo5ge1lt66bc)
Broadcast ends just as I'll See You There begins, so no Got Glint. :'( :o >:( :(
Thanks for the download whitenoise :)
How did you rip/download it ? I used get_iplayer and got an aac 127kbps version but I'd think there's a better quality version possible :(

Virtual soundcard recorded into Audacity as the show was playing. I don't think they broadcast a higher quality than 128. I just saved it as 192 since any higher seemed like overkill for the already lossy source.
Whitenoise! I love you mang!

Ok well I got the source file, converted it to mp3 192kbps. It sounds a bit better than Enjoyed's rip, send me a pm for a link
My rip?
All credit goes to Whitenoise.
I was asleep for the first 9 minutes!

Thanx Mochacho!
Edit: i just realized that SG brought back the 'classic' piano key sound back. Nice!
And i just realized they also shortened 'Go' . I thought it went better in 2015 when it came after DIA in which it faded in beautifully (without direct buki). Oh well!
You guys are amazing! Me being a slugabed I simply couldn't get up at like 5 o'clock on a saturday morning :D.
:o i wasnt ready
Lovin the new sound of ' Do it Again ' , . . and agree with MadPooter , . . the Temptation (with vocal) link into Star Guitar . . . giving me shivers too , . . sooo good.

Thanks WN and Ben J.
Some random observations:
Hello Direct Buki! Call me greedy but I'd love to get more of it, i.e the full "stomping" bit. Also, there are surely still more samples to spot in this one. We have LL Cool J and Bobby & Betty Go to The Moon. I reckon the stuttered 'siren' noise at the start is a sample. More intriguingly the "aaaah ah aaahh, huh" gets me every time. Sounds like it's from a film or a record that's at least 40 years old.
During Go,the pew pew sound (around 14.40 onwards on WN's download) that matches the bass rhythm sounds inspired by (but not taken from) the pew pew noises towards the end of Patrick Cowley's remix of I Feel Love.
Temptation: I mostly agree with WN's comments on the Belsonic thread. That autotune on Bernard Sumner's voice is WRONG! It MUST STOP NOW. It sounds like something an EDM DJ would do when mixing the track into Calvin Harris. However I quite like the non-autotuned addition of Bernard's vocals (although on an intellectual level WN is probably right, it is appropriation rather than tribute). It got me thinking that if we knew there was a complete Chems remix/re-edit of Temptation (a la Lack Of Love) I'd be be the first one saying "we have to have it". But without the autotune.
I think this autotune business started with The Test last year didn't it? It wasn't as noticable then- in fact some of us barely heard the vocal at all at first. And hey it was only Ashcroft rather than the mighty New Order.
EML Ritual: Oh look they've done something to the vocals! I guess it's meant to add to the queasy vibe that the vocals already have. Not sure it's an improvement. But there are more noises too: bleepy bits and bits that make it sound like trance. I think I like these bits.
Ah the Tuba Transition. I bet this sounds impressive on a big soundsystem.
Just one solitary utterance of "You are all my children now". How...economical.
At 52.17 "This show contains bad language..." I guess Radio 1 are still concerned that 'Angry Neighbour' sounds like he's saying Fuckin after all these years.

Wide Open has some ugly autotuned vocals too...Sounds good with the test though.

Btw, there's no autotune in T/SG, it's a vocoder! The same applies to Golden Path and the Test/UTI too.
I'm listening to the set for the first time in full length. Oh my gosh, EML Ritual is da fecking bomb!!! It's so neatly mixed with HBHG. If only they could keep the first half of the original album/live 2015 build up with that deep bass kicking in at one point, then this would be a true masterpiece! The newly added effects and tweaks on EML R are just awesome and make it even more sinister as it already is. In fact, all those new effects throughout the set are crazy good!
Wizards at work. Ed seems to have a lot of fun there.

There's still way too much Small Stone phaser everywhere in my opinion :/ On the Temptation synth for example
I think this is best I've heard Swoon and Star Guitar together. It might be the good recording capturing the extra sounds and transition. Glad they kept the sci-fi style synth as the horn replacer towards the end of star guitar totally works. Its great how they have evolved the temptation elements in there as it works well but they offered us something new at the same time.
The temptation before star guitar in CWU/2002 tour was spine tingling though and how they used the less is more approach without all the vocals was cool too.
I think I might've liked the structure of EML Ritual the first round of tours than this one maybe after HBHG it seemed more smoother. You can tell Ed is back so much more going on during in between the songs.

I didn't realize they had so much more phaser effects in their older sets. Well, seems like I need to revisit some. But still, I am really pleased with the kinds of effect sounds they used in their Parklife set. It's like discovering easter eggs between their "usual" sounds. Talking about new sounds, there was a voice generator type of sound towards the end of the set. Was this an intentional sample used by the chems or a BBC sample? And I noticed a kind of sound in HBHG that sounded like a conversation of some sort. Did you guys notice that too?
Btw, here's a tiny snippet of Got Glint

Did they do some tweaks here for the Parklife set or did the Belsonic one exactly sound the same?

If you mean the "bad language" bit, I think that's Radio 1 warning us about Angry Neighbour's use of the word "funkin".

I think I know what you mean. It's very faint, but yes, I can hear chatter, like when you're listening to FM and you hear a bit of a different radio channel. But it's on a digital recording, so it's weird...

I've listened this set first time today. Holy shiiiiiiit! I like this version of EML much more! Why they turned back to 2015 version after?
It have three drops of dark energy instead of two, and this intro juno riffs/arps (yes, i'm pretty sure for 100% it's a juno) perfectly fit with first drop.
And in second drop bleeps are coming with all of the beats and bass like the studio version, and i'm also like it.
Eveything sounds strong, massive and logical, it have better arrangement for live i think.
