Dear readers, you are amazing. The blog reached 10,000 comments the other day, I’m getting to the point where I can’t even comprehend the amount of support the blog’s receiving.

Thank you for putting up with all my quirks, the inconsistent genres, unrelated pictures, less-than-satisfactory descriptions and practically no replies, never holding back positive (or negative) feedback. You are truly awesome.

More numbers for those who are interested in this kind of stuff: there are 175,000  pageviews a month, 3,000+ visits a day, Facebook reached 2,000 fans, Hypem connects over 700 music enthusiasts, Twitter goes by 500+ followers, there are also around 500 registered users, email subscriptions are at 250, Tumblr says hi with 200 people and RSS readers count 150. Cheers!

A matching song for a rainy day like this, taking one step at a time.

Neotokyo

I received a concise suggestion the other day (i.e. a month ago) that immediately piqued my interest. Apparently this not widely-known video game, Neotokyo has an exceptional soundtrack by the even less-known music producer Ed Harrison.

The album consists of mostly moody, melodic and instrumental-heavy electronica, often with drum but without bass. Like most soundtracks it’s non-obtrusive, but unlike most soundtracks it is consistently enjoyable and is without fillers.

The soundtrack can be found amongst the game’s files, or bought here with a dozen bonus tracks included.

Not sure about the rest of Egyptrixx’s debut album, but this is magical.

A charmingly melancholic song by Amor de Días, loving that hint of double bass as well.
