You can actually hear ikey's playing.

Also a lot of cool effects that get drowned out in a speaker setup.

esquivel: exploring sounds in stereo

this one REALLY is made for headphones. This crazy mexican experimented in stereo panning like it was an instrument.

it's good fun to listen to on headphones, it was like hearing it the first time and 'getting' what he was trying to do.

toodles!

Hood and Mum sound fantastic on the cans. However the new M83 to me sounds better on speakers.... too much forward haze for headphones.

Gotta agree with this one, on speakers it's just there, with way too much bass and absolutly no presence. Putting it in your head is what causes the trance effect.
