DO you guys think I could trade the Grado SR80i with bowl pads for a Fostex T50RP?

The new stuff actually came home today now that I'm back in town.
 
EDIT: Massive Attack's Mezzanine is playing (in case anyone was wondering).

To the left of the KICAS is just a Dayton speaker amp.  Works well for my Bostons, though.  Really enjoying the KICAS.  Doesn't pick up on computer noise like my Schiit Asgard did.  Getting NVX XPT100s in later this week, and I'll determine whether the 8400s stay or go.

Downtempo/Trip Hip.

Sounds like some trippy techno. I'll have to hear it through my setup. Thanks for the recommendation.
Check out Machine Head
Look for the song Hallowed Be Thy Name. One of the BEST sounding bands of all time.

Are they? What genre?

 
I'm truly late to the game in appreciating this kind of music, but they sort of fall under that "electronica" heading. I've also heard the "trip-hop" term, as metalsonata said...all this electronica/club/house/trance type of stuff is pretty new to me, but I've found that I LOVE listenign to it. There is a track by an artist named ATB called Autumn Leaves that I can't get out of my head. I've listened to it over and over and am infatuated with the instrumentals and vocals. It's just not stuff you're goign to hear on a top 40 station, you know? I find it very interesting and it always seems to have an impact on me. I dont' do much dancing since I hit 40, but that's what it makes me feel like doing...it just fills me with energy lol.

It's very different from Techno or like...4 on the floor Trance stuff. It's really mellow and deep. Generally deep reaching bass. One of the things I could compare it to style wise (and it's a bit of a stretch) is Bjork. The music reminds me of some of her stuff, but with (IMO) better vocal work.

Yeah it's not what I usually listen to but I don't mind trying out different stuff. Good tunes is good tunes.
The most techno/trance like music I listen to is rammstein. I'm more into metal
