I also think that music must be listened to at a sitting in full albums - to preserve the atmosphere.

WOW! Someone else on this planet that actually has the same views as me when it comes down to the actual 'listening' of music. An album, in most cases, should be listened to in one sitting to preserve and enjoy the experience. There is something very souless and lifeless about listening to song by song ala ipod and itunes style that drives me nuts!

I have heard of some of those groups you mentioned, I too enjoy alot of prog rock and prog metal at times.

Slight deviations you say? I haven't heard of 'Ten' but you might enjoy listening to some Liquid Tension Experiment, or even 'RUSH' (canadian prog rock) or Jane's Addiction (their very early stuff was great)

My experience with Liquid Tension Experiment Part I was absolutely fantastic! The band breaks all the style boundaries, they combine many moods in their music - a great piece of instrumental prog-rock. I like Gordian Knot very much - this is also an instrumental band from USA they play some progressive rock - a very atmospheric piece of music.
Of course, atmosphere is the most important thing in music, especially progressive genres. I don't understand people who download single songs (though nowadays musical industry is oriented at this way of penetrating into people's minds).

Exactly, it makes no sense to me whatsoever.

I'll have to check out Gordian Knot, and you'll have to check out LTE Part 2.

Thinking of 'atmosphere', I forgot to mention one artist that had a huge influence on me - Brian Eno

I think it's his contribution that makes Low my favourite Bowie album.

Speaking of music you need to listen to in one sitting. Discreet Music? How about Apollo that he recorded with Roger Eno.

Your post needs some serious editing. I'm not sure what you are on about, maybe use some punctuation.

If you have a question about the request of Apple Loops, make a thread about it under 'Applications', but please remember that this forum does not support piracy or illegal activity of any kind.
