Oh man, I'm at a moral crossroads here. I never listen to samplers because it literally drives me bonkers trying to wait for the rest, and I just want to be surprised when it comes out...but if I don't listen to it now, it will be two years until I do!

THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!

Patience people. You've got to CONTROL yourselves.

By the way, from what I've heard on the 'teaser' it sounds like how Dev described it. I can hear the tension building but not losing control at some parts, such as the clip from Gato.
Heaven's End sounds IMMENSE. Trying to piece together parts from the teaser is a bit tricky, but I recognised the song Ki right away from hearing that youtube clip.

I tried listening to a bit of Ravi Shankar and I think I can hear some of his influence on Ki. The clean tones WORK. The album seems to have some of the most peaceful music to ever grace the holes on the sides of my head.

Devin, I think Ki is well on it's way to taking first place, right above Terria. I'll have to listen to it first though of course, but man! I played that teaser like 50 times already!

Those things are tricky but they look so spiffy when you're done with them!

I've never had a box make me feel retarded before this thou...

Im thinking that, altho my fave has always been ocean machine....Ki sounds immense but it will have to really be something special to top ocean machine.

The best bit on the teaser for me is the bit after trainfire that starts at 3.10, cant make the lyrics out but the melody is just sublime, anyone figure out what song that is?? I was thinking if the teasers in order it should be "lady helen" but i could be wrong!
Im guessing the last heavy clip is the song "Ki"...that sounds soooo good i nearly shit my pants.

Well just giving it a few more listens before i go to work, im glad i listened to it, i dont think its gonna spoil the Cd when it comes out and at least now i KNOW its going to be amazing!

Good thing about this teaser is that you hear a very small part of each song which means that when you come to listen to the album in its entirety you aren't sick of one song.
I find that if you get one song released before an album then listen to it to death it affects that song's placement in the final album running order.
This teaser is exactly that, just offering a glimpse of the music to come.

Yes, i second that. I had this problem with "Gaia", at first i always skipped it when i listened to Synchestra.

Those samples are absoluetly amazing! I just can't wait till it's june. And im just so excited to finally have a chance to see Devin live after all 4 albums are out :P

I'd agree with that. I've never followed the release of an album like I've followed this one but in the past have had accesss to like 1 or 2 tracks from one I was looking forward to and like you said it totally ruined the album experience for me. This sampler that Dev's put out is the perfect solution.

Tells you everything but gives away nothing.

Only the Dev man, Only the Dev.

I listen the ki preview and it sounds good, it has several quiet passages and atmospheres, but also they're those tormented sections
that involves you in a nebula of sound, a perfect balance between the noise and the silence, anger and calm. Simply perfect, Devin
makes it again
