Subject: (exotica) mp3 bitrate question

Here's one for all you mp3 rippers out there:

I was given to understand that 128kbps was "real good" and that 160kbps
or higher was pretty much indistinguishable from CD (except by those
folks who also need a $50,000 stereo to Really Listen to music). But now
I have on loan some CDs of mp3s (thanks, D!), many ripped at far higher
rates that 160kbps.

My question: what really is the optimum bitrate?


Thanks in advance,

Peter

well I dont know if its the best way, but I always rip at Variable Bit Rate,
which keeps the file as small as the music will let it be, yet doesnt
sacrifice sound quality. Some folks computers have a hard time with playing
variable bit rate files, and I know it isnt the best if you plan on posting
the files on the web, but for archiving sake it works for me.

Subject: (exotica) 60s-70s Go-Go Party in Chapel Hill NC!

THE HONEY MACHINE Go-Go Lounge
Monday, January 28 from 11pm-2am and beyond...
Henry's Bistro in Chapel Hill, NC USA

This past New Years party was a blast and we thank everyone who welcomed in
2002 by wearing out the HONEY MACHINE dancefloor! Check out pix of the night
at http://www.thestepgods.com/honeymachine/. Extra special thanks go to the
Incriminators Scooter Club for not only filling the ranks of the
shingaling-ified, but also for inviting DJ Marco & DJ Midnite Cowboy
(SOLID!) to supply the tunes for their scooter rally party this past weekend
at Series One Studios. A fun time was had by all on both evenings! Cheers!

But back to the business...as DJ Franz departs for the west coast, DJ DigDug
(SOLID!) joins DJ Marco as a regular on the HONEY MACHINE decks THIS MONDAY
for a night of sexy & ultra-danceable 60s-70s sounds de go-go
internacionale: sleazy lounge, funky soul, latin boogaloo, bollywood breaks,
asian pop, french ye-ye, sitar beat, hammond groovers, brazilian bossa,
soundtrack moods, and more... all accompanied by the Sex-a-Delic light show,
60s-70s eurosleaze & sexploitation flicks on video, and a fully ABC licensed
(and fully-stocked) bar.

Best of all? NO COVER! So put on your Mary Quant mini and/or point-toed
boots and dance until the bartender throws you out!

For info, playlists, photos & dates,
check out the HONEY MACHINE WEBSITE
at http://www.thestepgods.com/honeymachine/

Honey Machine nights are the last Monday of each month at Henry's Bistro.

Subject: (exotica) soundtracks by Piernicola Di Muro

hello, just a couple of lines to inform you that EMusic is starting to
publish all the soundtracks by this young and prolific guy who's making
scores and tracks for Italian film and TV programs. These are previously
unreleased and not available on cd and can be found here:
http://www.emusic.com/artists/21714/
There are at least 5 other MP3 albums coming out soon. The first two are
"Gattonero" (Black Cat, a tv feature all about cats!) and "Amleto" (music
for a documentary about Hamlet).
Some of the other cds which haven't appeared yet on the site will contain
more exotic stuff... there's a nice indian/tibetan themed album ("Namaste",
used to comment a short film) which contains sitar samples and bits of
1940s jazz records.

regards,
Nicola DjB

Subject: (exotica) Video interview with Goblin

Ciao,
this is ErMan from the music band The Transistors.

A little news for all the people who likes the world of movie soundtracks
like us.

Some months ago Luke and ErMan (The Transistors)  met Goblin at the
Trafalgar Studio in Rome, where Goblin made their great soundtracks for
Dario Argento's movies as "Profondo Rosso", "Suspiria", "Buio Omega",
"Zombi".

Our interview with Goblin was filmed and recorded for Il Giaguaro Magazine,
but now it's possible to find it inside the cd reissue of a Goblin rarity
"Il fantastico viaggio del Bagarozzo Mark" thanks to Cinevox records.

It's a great pleasure for us to have a little part in this reissue: a little
homage to all Goblin fans like us!

ErMan
