Musical greetings from Recklinghausen (Germany), Jerry, I saw you are here at lastfm for >11 years already :-) ... Looking back from today's viewpoint: how did your "musical voyage" develop over that decade? ... Wishing you all the exquisite music in achieving your 66k scrobbles milestone ... How I stumbled upon you? ... lastFM shows you are at the moment 1 of my musical neighbours (50 users are in the list): last dot fm/user/the_minimal/neighbours

No, I'm two years behind my age so I'm still a junior... BTW, I don't know if you already know This Will Destroy You. If not you should definitely check them out. I was introduced to them by a new friend who also listens to Post-rock at Penn State, truly impressed.

Hey, can't believe it's been a year... how are you holding up with the finals? hope everything's going well! I've been listening to Porcupine Trees, saw them on the top of you list. And OMG, i can't believe I didn't know them!! No wonder they're your No.1 artist!!!

hey how have you been? :D sorry i didn't get back to you earlier, it's finally summer i never got to catch my breath. the bands you introduced to me are fantastic, especially Kattoo i’ve been listening to a lot. i'm an advertising major but i'm thinking about double majoring in international politics. what's your major? hope you're having a great summer!!:D

it‘s been great, i really like the fact that i don't have any demanding course this semester so i've always been a chilled mood. I don't listen to OLD Asian music either but mainly because i never got a chance, actually i kinda wish my dad could be a classical or opera or whatever fan instead of being a POP follower who doesn't really have a taste... you're lucky to be raped!XD anyway, what i wanna recommend may not be the latest but it is definitely not dated. feel free to check out the last one on my top 8 overall artists list (惘闻 in chinese, hopefully you can recognize it). personally i think it is one of the top chinese post-rock bands if not the best. i love them they are amazing. if you're trying it out, RERERE is a good start. it's my favorite album, if you got trouble finding it let me know, i can send it to you, just don't forget to tell me what you think;) so do you have any recommendation for me?

hey! sorry about the late reply, i lived without music for quite a while... anyway, do you listen to any Asian music? if you are also a post-rock fan by any chance then i have recommendations for you ;) hope you are doing well with school! :D

I must have missed those! I have heard the HE-5 and its partnered amp before and really did like it. Like I said, I was mostly testing DAP's with my customs. I don't know much about the HE's Planar technology but they seem to be getting lots of love on Head-Fi. If only you could audition all these lovely headphones you're contemplating.

The meet was great! Here's the impression thread: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/522757/2010-chiunifi-meet-impressions-thread It went by really quick. I spent most of my time listening to my customs through other users' portable devices and monitoring my D7000 station. I came away with five nice raffle prizes including a pair of DT770's.

Hey there, nice to be friends! :D Well I'm not a frequent last.fm user and I didn't expect to meet someone from Penn State. Looking into your library right now ;)

It would seem our sonic preferences our similar too! You've definitely narrowed to two great options. It would be my guess that the AT's have a little better treble/midrange. I'm sure you'd be happy with either. Just keep an eye out for meets in your area, and I'll pay special attention to the AT's this Saturday ;)

I can't say I remember them that well. I mean, they follow the AT style, and I do remember them to be pleasing. I'm going to ChiUniFi IV this weekend so maybe I'll get a chance to hear them. I'm pretty sure the W1000x will be there. Of course you could also dig around Head-Fi for opinions too.

Hey thanks! The W5000 are very beautiful cans and sound great too. I had a chance to listen to them in the spring. They didn't have the comfort I was expecting however. They were better than Grado, but not comparable to the Denon's line. Have you had a chance to audition them?

Not to shabby, you? Doing my crazy internets rampage thing. :P

wow i haven't used this in months. why am i writing you a message when you live like 10 feet from where I'm currently sitting?

jerrry song get off my facebook, you're ruining my high.

lol you wishhhh, you're just bitter because everyone liked me more including that total creeper of a teacher. does he still call you? no? I didn't think so. he still calls me though ;_____; creeep.

yeah in your dreams. see this is why you have no friends.

penn state is for loserrss

How goes it, good sir? Hey, got any good prog bands for me to check out? something like Dream Theater/Porcupine Tree.

Aww.. You're more 'old school' than I. Progressive Rock/Metal and old Thrash.. I feel so much younger than you. Haha.

aw snap

Yeah, um. Screw foobar. lawl!

lol i'm just starting to understand last.fm, never really been on the site, only made an account for the last.fm tracker thingy

new Dream Theater album leaked awhile ago if'n you're interested.

All the long tracks are good, but 2 and 8 are the best. I do like six a lot for some reason though.
