Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

This is my Top 10 classified list

1) Tangerine Dream - Quantum Gate
2) Monarch Trail - Sand
3) Lunatic Soul - Fractured
4) Simon Phillips - Protocol 4
5) Bjorn Riis - Forever Comes to an End
6) Hamadryad - The Black Hole
7) Carptree - Emerger
8) Amarok - Hunt
9) Marco De Angelis - Next Station
10) Trinity Xperiment - Anaesthesia

however, as last year I invite you to publish your TOP 10 lists would be interesting for everyone and would also help to bring out so many albums that have been listened to little but that have a value not to be overlooked ...

My Top 10 has no connection with Moon O Poll 2017 ... it's another thing.
and it is not binding for your future sending of your list to Moon O Poll 2017.

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

As last year the first publications of the lists highlight the many differences between our musical tastes ... I find that these differences are very important for Aural Moon and for all of us listeners because they stimulate to deepen groups that we listen less or not we know at all

Thank You Ramon Porta and Finance5 for having published Yours lists Top 10

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

I Renew the invitation to publish yours Top 10 Lists ... it is interesting for everyone and helps to bring out so many albums and groups that have been listened to little or that you do not know at all.
My Top 10 has no connection with Moon O Poll 2017 ... it's another thing.
and it is not binding for your future sending of your list to Moon O Poll 2017.

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

Hola, mis amigos de Aural Moon :)

It has cost me to choose the list (i left it like floating cause dificult decide on best things) but I must choose. So I'll conclude in the next one and will have inside some of female ego lyrics :)


1. Steve Hacket -The Night Siren
2. Cast - Power and Outcome
3. Lifesigns - Cardington (votation from my brother Robert)
4. Agusa - Agusa
5. Barock Project - Detachment
6. White Willow - Future Hopes
7. Phoenix Again - Unexplored
8. Magenta - We are legend
9. Galahad - Quiet Storms
10. Knight Area - Heaven and Beyond

I would mention a lot of other works, even if only because there is a song that I like or that has attracted my progressive sensibility like italians Taproban, Eurasia, MonnaLisa (not on moon but nice intrumental and near to Goblin atmosphera); germans Rpwl, Karibow, Schizofrantik, Force of Progress or the thecnoprogresía of Tangerine Dream; canadians Pareidolon female vocals very nice, Circus or Resistor.

And more like Gentle Knife, Simon Philllips, Lunatic Soul, Caligula's Horse, Anubis, Anubis Spire, Earthrise, Amarok, Karfagen, Schooltree, Colin Tench (i'm discovering on solitary), Eloy, Drifting Sun, Mike Stern, Djam Karet, Alberto Rigoni, Anxtron, Kaipa, etc, etc

Another special and honorific mention about when I drift musically on moments here and I like all everything new that masters of Moon Station add without control :) :-o~

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

Thanks Seikila,Artw and Mariocc for having published your lists Top 10 ......

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

I have to confess that I have not acquired a lot of 2017 releases yet, I've been catching up on filling in gaps in my collection and discovering artists from the past that are new to me. However, I'll play - and you'll have to excuse me if I include albums you don't consider to be prog - simply because I want to be like the rest of you and have 10 in my list!

I will stress that I'm only listing them from 1 through 10 because of peer pressure...


1 - Bjorn Riis - Forever Comes to an End
2 - Steve Wilson - To the Bone
3 - Richard Barbieri - Planets + Persona
4 - Tori Amos - Native Invader
5 - Mike Oldfield - Return to Ommadawn
6 - Big Big Train - Grimspound
7 - Bent Knee - Land Animal
8 - Peter Hammill - From the Trees
9 - GY!BE - Luciferian Towers
10 - Anathema - The Optimist
10.1 - King Crimson - Live in Chicago (who said I can't include a live album?)

Yes, these failed to make the top 10

Mute Gods - Tardigrades... (there's something about this I just can't put my finger on)
Lonely Robot - The Big Dream (it feels rushed, like it was necessary to release it as soon as possible after the debut)
Mastodon - Emperor of Sand

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

Thanks Aerosol and NogbadTheBad for having published your lists Top 10 ......

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

Here's the top fifteen from a website called symfo city. http://www.symfocity.nl/TOP15/progyear2017.html

Warning: You'll probably have to click the translate button(unless you understand Dutch. ;) ).

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

Thanks Mike
..... very positive is to have found other information on the result of a ranking of the preferences of many fans of progressive

Attachment 992

The ranking is always an average .... so it always depends on the quality of those who participate
for 2017 it is quite valid .... for the previous years in the 15 albums there are many albums that for me do not deserve those positions ..... while for the first position of the various years I find very much agree

Attachment 993

... but this is only my opinion and in one ranking is worth 1 vote.

however, I remain of the idea that the preferences of listening Aural Moon are much more valid ....
and therefore Mike help us to better understand the 2017 ....
insert your 10 albums of 2017.

some considerations on the site www.symfocity.n

It seems to me very strange that this site has not yet been closed

if Aural Moon behaved like that ... he would have a very short life

for many of their broadcasts you can download ....
and are very careful not to talk about the tracks, leaving a pause at the beginning of the song and one at the end of the same
so that having a minimum of fanigliarity with an audio editing program
can easily extract the song that already has a good quality mp3 192k
but always through the program you can take to 320k
and maybe give him more profundity and other devilishments
until you get higher resulltati of the original
and there are also downloads of playlists
with detailed information on the tracks ...

I can not believe that you can do this in the light of the sun ... Very strange that nobody will close them ...

Re: My Top 10 .... 2017
 

Nicola, I mainly just use it for the lists. I never really listened to the broadcasts(maybe just once but found it frustrating since I don't speak dutch). Anyway, I find that site to be a good(although far less known)alternative to progarchives. DPRP is a good site too. Anyway, speaking of progarchives here's their top 20:

1. From Silence to Somewhere-Wobbler
2. Accordo Dei Contrari - Violato Intatto
3. Kaprekar's Constant - Fate Outsmarts Desire
4. Believe - Seven Windows
5. L' Albero del Veleno - Tale of a Dark Fate
6. The Rome Pro(g)ject -Exegi Monumentum Aere Perennius
7. Colin Tench Project -Minor Masterpiece
8. Obiymy Doschu -Son
9. Jordsjo- Jord
10. Threshold - Legends of the Shires
11. Mike Oldfield - Return to Ommadawn
12. Camembert - Negative Toe
13. Barock Project - Detachment
14. Big Big Train - Grimspound
15. Major Parkinson - Black Box
16. Inside the Sound - Wizards Eyes
17. Non Newtonia Man - Clouds
18. Atavismo- Inerte
19 The Slow Rust Of Forgotten Machinery-The Tangent
20.-Diablo Swing Orchestra Pacifisticuffs

Here are the next two also:

21. Kant Freud Kafka - Onirico
22. Monarch Trail - Sand
