i listened to it on BC for a while and had to buy it. it's great! i misread the pricing, was in EUR not GBP so £9 isn't a bad price for this given the length of the tracks. On 21 September 2015 at 21:37, Connor Higgins <connor1higgins@gmail.com> wrote:

This is just a bold-face lie. --eric (FWIW I'm listening to the thing now, and it's pretty good but agree, not €12 good)

It's opinion, so how can I lie? There's plenty of good music out there that I just can't connect with as a person, and therefore I choose not to listen to. I'm getting a masters in music psychology, so while I'd love to answer that discrepancy, it's at the very least my goal right now.

Damn Clint, you too? Sure, the knowledge half-life is quite low in psychology, but I come from a neuroscience background. If it means anything "different" it's a dual auditory neuroscience and music psychology program, labelled M.Sc. for good reason.
